Hope you enjoyed the 2013 year in review here on the HORROR REPORT -- there was a lack of a song of the year and movie of the year. Perhaps I was going to be extra embarrassed if I named a Miley Cyrus or Katy Perry song as the song of the year, so I chose not to.. as far as movie of the year, I was going to name the CONJURING but felt a flaw in that since I don't completely have faith in the 'real' story behind the flick. The real movie of the year was probably GRAVITY, at least according to all friends and reviewers who saw it. I did not.. so I did not think I could fairly name a movie of the year ..
And now onto the news.
And usual, it ain't good.
