This is a question I’ve been asked quite a few times now and I felt the need to talk about it.
I do understand why I get asked this, I mean what is the point of reviewing a film that was released 50 years ago? Well it’s a simple answer really.
There are Horror fans old and new and the new fans sometimes need a bit of guidance, I know for a fact I did when I started out. In posting up reviews about old films I hope to do just that for others.
Sure, there are plenty of places to find out about these films but (arrogantly I admit) I like to add my own opinion to it and voice my like or dislike for a certain film.
I’ve had messages from people who have thanked me for introducing them to certain films, these films have ranged all the way back to the 30’s so I carried on doing it.
Now like I said earlier there are plenty of places to find information about these films but it’s a nice feeling to know that my small review helped them discover a certain film that could become a new favourite.
Raz's Midnight Macabre 
Exactly, I mean I was lucky in the sense my mother introduced me to old horrors, I was far too terrified to tackle new horror when I was young. So at seven I was watching old Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, Boris Karloff until I was brave enough to sit through something else. By that time I tackled 70's stuff.My other half knows most of the oldies too but there's treasures he's not even seen and nor would he ever; and vice versa. If people didn't talk about them they'd get forgotten about, and re-written as some new fangled drivel, so I'm thankful for blogs like this! ^-^
