This week, the Horror Movie Syllabus looks at Mermaid horror movies! These movies give us the real, visceral, scary myth of the sea nymph—not the sanitized, Disney-fied Little Mermaid! Join Professor Victor as he braves the waters to explore these legends, and stick around for some fishy “extra credit” movies!

The Doctorate level of the Horror Movie Syllabus continues as we revisit the Curses subgenre video and present a fourth, Doctorate level selection! This new addition is an intriguingly creepy international mockumentary!

Professor Victor continues working through his “to-watch” list created by YOU via your recommendations in the comments! This week, he watches “Mark of the Devil” for the first time and determines if it is worthy of being on the Syllabus!

For centuries, the witch has had a certain stigma attached to it that, while largely unearned and unfortunate, has led to a rather interesting and compelling horror subgenre. Join the Horror Movie Syllabus as we tackle witches, exploring movies that have both good and bad examples of witchcraft. We’ll also look at a few “extra credit” movies with witches in them that might be worth your time.
