Welcome to the new darkwebonline.com blog! Here I'll add some comments about, or (loosely!) related to horror, sci-fi and fantasy (HSF) film that don't really fit in with the rest of the site. You also have the chance to reply to any of our comments are ask us any questions you may have about our site. I'm new to this so go easy!

First let me introduce myself. My name is Wayne Sharpe and I have been the owner/chief writer/editor/cleaner/mailman on darkwebonline.com for 10 years now. I have been watching HSF movies obsessively since I was 9 (that being 1987 in case you're wondering). This obsession led me to the misguided belief that one day I could make a living from my interests - hence darkwebonline.com!

Our initial aim was to provide as complete a database on HSF as possible - but then imdb.com pretty much made that idea pointless! Then our aim was to provide the best in rare and obscure VHS from across the world - then cheap but high quality DVDs and online downloads came along and blew that out of the water! Oh well...

So why we might not be at the, err cutting edge of movie websites that we once aimed to be, we are still here, still selling rare VHS and DVDs, and still particularly productive in our reviews and features department.

As touched on earlier, I'm an avid fan of HSF (I'm watching 'The Strange Possession of Mrs. Oliver' as I write) and I may touch on some of the films I'm watching here..if I'm not inspired enough to write a full review.

So come back and visit this page and read my insane ramblings - but don't forget to leave comments! It'll be fun to know people are actually reading this...
