So ... how did you celebrate Valentine's Day? Was there romance? Fine French cheeses? A beautiful array of champagne and chocolate? Or were you alone, gnawing bones in the cemetery, like any other Sunday night?
Well, if you're like me, you're still in a haze of romance and eager to stay in your love bubble. So why not snuggle up with your sweetie to enjoy some of the most romantic horror movies of all time? I know the horror genre doesn't usually treat lovers kindly, but here are a few gems that will warm your heart.
#4. Masters of Horror: Sick Girl -- a one-hour short from Showtime, this quirky romance between two bug-loving lesbians is poignant while filled with plenty of gross-out moments.
#3. Frighteners -- Before The Lord of the Rings, Peter Jackson rocked the horror world with the enchanting story of a down-and-out medium fighting the powers of evil in a small New Zealand. Love lost and won again make this film great, but campy performances by Jeffrey Combs and Jake Busey make it fun.
#2. Dead Alive -- Another Peter Jackson tour de force, this film celebrates the transformative power of love as one man struggles to become his true self against all odds. And against all horrible, incredibly disgusting zombies. This is also one of the most painfully disgusting movies ever made.
#1. Fido -- If you haven't seen this movie, then you are missing out on one of the greatest zombie films ever made. And more importantly, it's a film that shines a light on the human spirit within in us all, whether we're repressed housewives or the undead.
