One thing that I really liked about the new film by Stewart Thorndike, Bad Things, is the strong LGBTQ+ characters. It’s refreshing to see new and upcoming talent as the lead in a movie, and Bad Things has four of them – Gayle Rankin (GLOW) as Ruthie, Hari Nef (Barbie …

Back in 2002, filmmaker Lucky McKee gifted us horror fans with his offbeat horror comedy gem, May. Starring Angela Bettis (Carrie 2002), Jeremy Sisto (Clueless 1995) and newcomer Anna Faris (Scary Movie 2000), May helped cement Lucky as the horror director to watch. As the years have gone by, Lucky’s …

Last year, while searching the library app for a new book to read, I came across Five Total Strangers by Natalie D. Richards and checked it out. Going in blind, I was mesmerized by the story about five strangers on a road trip through the snow, I finished it in …

One thing I like about the Subspecies series is that the cast keeps coming back to make more. That shows not only loyalty to the filmmaker, but also to the content and each other. Twenty-five years after the last Subspecies film, 1998’s Subspecies IV: Bloodstorm, cast and crew return for …
