Pay It Forward Blogfest

Pay It Forward Blogfest

Matthew MacNish @ QQQE and my dear friend Alex J. Cavanaugh are hosting this awesome blogfest, aptly titled Pay It Forward, which main purpose is to introduce everyone to everyone else. How it works? Well, each of the participants in the blogfest has to post links to three of their most favorite blogs and to share why did the fall in love with these particular blog(ger)s. So the idea is to visit and follow as many of these fantastic blogs/people as you can. What are you waiting for? Do it now! :)


It was really hard to pick only three blogs, but since I'm obviously a film-obsessed person, I decided to go with 3 of my favorite movie blogs, which I absolutely love!

***


Maynard Morrissey's
HORROR MOVIE DIARY


Harry is a true horror geek coming from Austria (not Australia!). He's not only very passionate about horror cinema in general, but he's also an amazing person - smart, funny, kind and polite. He delivers the reviews exactly the way I like them - short'n'sweet, to-the-point, and witty, plus he's such a good writer, you'd never guess English is not his first language. Check out his cool blog now! Oh, and today is his birthday. Happy birthday, Harry!

SON:sation

J-SON is from the stunning Singapore and he's a great reviewer and a very capable and skillful writer. He knows what he's talking about and his reviews are always compelling, competent and incredibly well-written. I still can not believe he has only 20 followers. It's ridiculous. He deserves at least 10 times as much. Go follow this amazing guy!

HorrO's Gory Reviews

HorrO is another horror fanatic I absolutely adore! He's a sucker for everything horror and I admire him for that reason. Moreover, he's an incredible writer, and I must admit that we often agree about movies, because we obviously have similar cinematic taste. His reviews are clever, entertaining to read and, well, gory. Check them out.

  21. Lynn, thank you so much for the kind words. Glad to know I've found another movie lover, like myself. Hey, and you're gorgeous!

    Thanks for the follow. I wanted to follow back but couldn't find the button. Does wordpress have a follow button? :)

  22. Yay for my bestest blog buddy Maynard! He's so sweet and polite and he manages to watch like 50 horror movies a week and review them all. I don't know how he does it.

    Am now following J-son and HorrO! Not sure why I wasn't before...

  23. This bloghop is fun. So many new blogs. :)

  24. Michele, thanks for the comment. Yay for Harry! He deserves a recognition for the exact same reason you mentioned above, and because he's super-cool of course.

    I wonder the same thing actually. J-Son is an all-rounder, but HorrO is obviously pure horror. It's weird you're not one of his followers.

    Thanks, Michele!
