February is Women in Horror month. It’s a damn fine excuse to talk about some of my favourite female fictional characters from the horrors of the big screen and the little screen. And this is only part one.

Westworld – my new TV crush
OHMYGODDIDYOUSEEWESTWORLDWASN’TITLIKETHEBESTTHINGEVERANDWHENISTHENEXTEPISODEBLOODYHELLINEEDTOSEEITNOW *ahem* I mean, did you happen to see the first episode of the Westworld series? Because it was damn bleeding can’t-peel-your-eyes-off-the-screen good. If you didn’t watch it then you should probably stop reading as I may accidentally spoiler-fy your brain. Seriously, though, if you didn’t watch it then you really need to go and watch it now. *stares* It’s got everything – robot cowboys, ruthless corporate bosses, visitors who think nothing of blowing the brains out of robots for fun. Plus, let’s be fair, a stellar team and cast to carry it along on its visually stunning course (we’re…
A mother’s day at the movies
Happy mother’s day to all you lovely ladies – and especially to that particularly lovely lady who’s had the dubious pleasure of getting stuck with me for… erm… let’s just say a few years… Hey, I got ID’d buying wine in the shop the other day so shut your faces.

And in this latest instalment of reading, watching, listening, here’s the creative crack that’s been going down. Reading: Did I mention that I pretty much devoured The Death House by Sarah Pinborough? It made me cry. And it wasn’t pretty crying. It was all red eyes…
Top televisual eye-joy
Last week I got more excited than a pig in a mud-field about Narcos. It’s great. For reasons why it’s great you can read my brain splurge here. So, in the spirit of sharing TV’s best excuses to curl up on the sofa with a blanket, the beast and a bottle of wine during the long winter nights, here’s six more series that set my eyeballs salivating. The Walking Dead Because *zombies* (and some dodgy American accents). Six Feet Under By far the best series about a family-run funeral home, ever. American Horror Story I’ve only seen season one, the…
