October 1, 2018October 5, 2018 Kevin Fentress Lists fright fest, Halloween, Horror, october

The leaves are changing, the air is cooling, and Fast and Fentress is back with another series of horror movie reviews! For the entirety of October, I’ll be posting as many horror reviews as I can, with movies that span decades, countries, and subgenres.

So stay tuned; I’ve got some killer takes.
