Art: Child’s Play by Jérémy Pailler

December 11, 2018.Reading time 1 minute.

One of the very few iconic horror franchises still going strong today is Don Mancini’s Child’s Play. This is by no means a slight against the film itself, but I doubt anyone ever expected this silly slasher to go on a 30-year run (and still counting). That’s impressive no matter how you look at it, which is […]

I first started this website nearly 7 years ago (I know, right), and those of you who have been here since day one know that it has changed quite a bit over the years—even the name has changed, going from Rhinews (so, so lame) to Rhino’s Horror before finally landing on what you see here: The […]

Art: Poltergeist by Jérémy Pailler

There’s not much I can say about Tobe Hooper’s Poltergeist that hasn’t been said already—it’s a giant in the haunted house genre (especially during the time it was made), because Hooper perfectly captures that paralyzing sense of terror when your own home turns on you.

It’s surprising to think about the popularity of Pennywise, who is among the very best monsters in horror, when he has only appeared in a single book and just one mediocre TV adaptation. Most genre icons have an entire franchise backing them up with years to develop their iconic horror status. There’s just something about […]

Jérémy Pailler’s stunning art illustrates the origins of classic horror: Part II

July 27, 2015.Reading time 2 minutes.

As promised, Jérémy Pailler has followed up his stunning Horror Genesis Collection with some new additions that feature the likes of Pennywise, Michael Myers, the Three Mothers and more. If you remember, I featured Pailler’s paintings back in December, all of which depicted the origins of some of horror’s most frightful monsters (see those here), so I’m excited to […]

Jérémy Pailler’s stunning art illustrates the origins of classic horror: Part I

December 18, 2014.Reading time 2 minutes.

The wonderful thing about good (even some bad) art is that sometimes a single imagine can tell an entire story, and French artist Jérémy Pailler has done just that with his new art gallery, Horror Genesis Collection. It’s a beautiful collection that depicts the very origins of some of horror’s most iconic monsters from Pinhead and Cujo to […]
