I always get excited for the new fall season of television on cable networks like HBO, Showtime, FX and AMC. This fall there are new arrivals like Showtime’s Homeland, Starz’s Boss and AMC’s forthcoming Hell on Wheels as well as subsequent seasons of quality television programs like Boardwalk Empire, Dexter and The Walking Dead. However, the one show that got me really excited was FX’s American Horror Story.

I used to be terrified by horror movies until I realized there’s nothing scary about them. Honestly, when is the last time you were chased by an axe-wielding maniac to the sounds of violins and cellos? Final exams, terminal illnesses and dieing alone – now these are legitimate fears.

Third time doesn’t break the charm in this third entry and prequel to the popular horror franchise.
It’s unheard of for second films in horror franchises to be good, let alone third entries, and yet the three films in the Paranormal Activity series are consistently good.

Every year people of all ages put their creativity to the test around Halloween. Children revel in the opportunity to dress up and adults find themselves coming up with awesome partner costumes to rope their unwilling significant others into.
Sadly, Halloween also reveals the darker sides of our creativity.

People have had a love affair with all things spooky and perverse for centuries. For as long as there has been language, people have been whispering unsettling fables to make each other’s skin crawl. For as long as there have been doors, people have been jumping out from behind them with the intent to startle. But more interesting than our fascination with terrifying our nearest and dearest friends is our preoccupation with scaring ourselves.

It’s time to get your shit in order. Oct. 21 was supposed to be the end of the world (again), but there’s been some sort of delay (again). Who knows how long that delay will last, though?

Despite a perfect weekend, playoffs were just out of reach for the Huskies women’s soccer team.
Going into their final two games of the season, the Dogs needed two wins and required both the University of Calgary and the University of Victoria to lose all their remaining games in order to secure the Canada West’s fourth and final playoff spot.

There is a tendency to act hostile toward a remake for no reason other than the fact that it is a remake. I do my best to avoid this.
When I went to see the new Footloose in theatres, I kept my mind open, although I had the lingering knowledge that there were a million different ways they could screw it up. What I found, however, was a remake that did almost everything right.
