Fiction
At Short-Story.me:
• "The Little Woods" by Michael Rafferty. Science Fiction.
"The little woods was from old forest; a left-over remnant of residential construction, both mid and high end. It was made up mostly of hard woods, tall oaks and maples, some poplars. A few long-leaf pines grew later. Most trees were over a century in age. The leaf litter beneath was undisturbed, deep and rich. One surveyor had once noted that the little woods was pie-shaped; he hadn't recalled anyone ever going into it."
• "Dug" by Jonathan Kahn. Horror.
"It finally got my attention by suggesting that someone was in my house. Before the sleepy side could argue, my blood was spiked with adrenaline and I was on my feet. My .45 was in my right hand, and the safety had already been thumbed off. My senses sharper now, I listened."
• "The Stalker" by Vela Damon. Horror.
"Sure, I’ve seen him before, but never up close. Watching me from a darkened doorway, peering through the slats of the dingy blinds in an abandoned house, sitting in the next car over on the subway, standing on the opposite curb as I waited for the Walk signal."

• At Internet Archive: Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women. 1968. Science Fiction.
A bad remix of the mediocre 1959 Russian film Planeta Bur, which had already been adapted as Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet in 1962. Despite the Salacious title, this film is very tame. On the plus side, this reconstruction/restoration copy is the best looking copy of this that I've seen.
