Stephen King, when asked in an interview, claimed Carrie is the most terrifying story he has ever written and that he will never read it again.

While I don't think Carrie is THAT terrifying, I do feel that it had its moments. Everyone is familiar with the iconic image of a girl standing in the spotlights drenched in pig's blood--but what they don't know about is what comes next. A little bit gruesome and a little bit twisted, psycho nightmare, Carrie is one book that I will never be able to forget.

A darker version of The Craft
For me, this series was a little more mainstream, especially following on from the horrifying second series. It was a little bit of a dated construct - a coven of young witches doing young witch things. Luckily we had the higher level witches fighting against their voodoo counterparts and witch-finders to add some originality to that. There was also a good amount of humour injected through the character interactions and different types of magic.
A good solid series, but not as dark and gruesome as previous series.

The Monster Within
I, Monster- is Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, so im not sure why their called it "I, Monster". Anyways its a great movie. Christopher Lee does a excellent job with the split personality.

The plot: Gruesome re-imagining of the Jekyll and Hyde tale. Dr Marlowe experiments with a drug to release his inhibitions with beastly results.

It also has Peter Crushing in it, so thats a plus. The two of them are a dynamic duo. Their are excellent when their work together.

This film is really good and underrated.
