Wally Adams is a freelance writer, teacher, traveler and/or whatever else comes up. While long an enthusiast of world cinema, he’s guilty as charged of having had less interest in horror films than most other genres for a long time (for thinking them too unrealistic). That was until realizing horror films are actually some of the best for tapping into (or devouring) the souls of different people, cultures and beliefs.
