THE HORROR CINEMATIC ALPHABET. Our good friend Terry over at Paleo-Cinema did his own Science Fiction Cinematic Alphabet via an idea he glommed at Rupert Pupkin Speaks. If'n he can tweak the idea for a Skiffy Alphabet than I can sure tweak a horror one. So here goes. . .when not teaching a child their ABC's via Edward Gorey's Gashlycrum Tinies, one can certainly learn 'em a thing or two with this Cinematic Horror Alphabet. . .and I'll try not to pick the obvious ones:
