Press & Partners
I'm Tom Dahm — I collect and write about horror, physical media, and 80s/90s/00s nostalgia from the Chicago area. This site is where that lives: collecting posts, the 50 Days of Horror series, and whatever else I'm working through that season.
If you're a label, studio, or PR team, here's where I fit.
Labels & Brands
I cover physical media the way a collector does, not a reviewer running down a checklist — no grading scales, no "buy or skip" verdicts. If you're sending out review copies of a horror release, a specialty-label restoration, or anything that belongs on a shelf next to VHS and vinyl, that's the kind of coverage I do well. I'll always say up front it's a courtesy copy — no pretending otherwise.

Studios & PR
I'm building toward advance screenings and general genre-press access. I'm Chicago-area, so local screenings and events are an option alongside remote press links and screeners.

YouTube (50 Days of Horror and more), Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Tumblr, Bluesky, and the shop at tomdahm.com.
