2008  YEAR IN REVIEW

Here at the Krypt, 2008 was definitely a year of changes. Back in January of this year, I was fired from my job of 8 years. After what seemed like forever (really only months) of being out-of-work, I was lucky enough to get hired on to a company that I have so far loved working for. The people are great and the work is never boring. I had given up hope that one could actually have a job and enjoy going to work. But it can and does happen, folks. I’m living proof.

After 10 years of running the Krypt, we are just having as much fun as when we started. So please keep coming with the emails, the Mystery Photo answers, and all the other comments. It really means a lot to me, and shows that we are still on the right path. Continue reading →

2007 IN REVIEW

First of all, as we do every year, we’d like to take a moment to remember all the celebrities that had made some contribution to the horror genre that passed away this last year. Whether they were actors, directors, or writers, these people have made an impact on the genre, and to film fans like us. Because of fans like us, these names will never be forgotten. I think that is the best gift that fans like us can give to any of these talented people… the gift of immortality. Thank you for all those wonderful films, performances, images, and memories!

2006 IN REVIEW

In re-capping this last year, I think the best thing throughout the year, still continues to be all the great films that are being released on DVD. Yea, there’s always those 2 and 3 disc special editions of the major blockbusters. But how about that 5 disc special edition of Richard Stanley’s Dust Devil that came out? And for only $20! There were also 2 different Boris Karloff collections, a great collection of classic horror films, including Mad Love, and even some great cheese-fest fun titles like Horror at Party Beach. And of course we have to give a nod to CasaNegra Entertainment for releasing those great Mexican classics like Curse of the Crying Woman, Witch’s Mirror, and Brainiac, in beautiful releases, as well as Dark Sky Films for continuing to put out some amazing titles and in even more amazing releases.

One of the biggest highlights of this year was thanks to the incredible talents of Joseph Vargo and Christine Filipak of Monolith Graphics. They are the ones responsible for creating our logo. Working from just a thought, Vargo came up with an image that fit our site and our “Discover the Horror” tagline perfectly. I can’t thank them enough for their work.  It has really given an recognizable image for this site. Continue reading →

2005  YEAR IN REVIEW

Well another year almost done and gone, and I have to say that this was a very mixed year for us. We did have quite a few highlights, which we will discuss shortly. But on a personal (and more importantly financial) standpoint, this year sucked. So we are very much so looking forward to ending this year and starting afresh! We have also set up some goals for ourselves for this website. More updates, more contests, and more fun. So let’s see what happens! We are working on a big update, including our Cry Wolf and Wolf Creek reviews, along with a couple of Soundtrack reviews as well. But instead of waiting until the whole thing is done, we’ll update what we get done each time, and go from there. Usually when I wait, it takes weeks to get everything done. So here’s what we got so far. Enjoy! Continue reading →
