I remember the first time I watched Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare, and it scared the hell out of me. However, once I watched it I told myself how brave I was for watching it. There is a lot of childhood trauma to deliver here. Let’s get into the review. …

Growing up, when the holidays came, so did the 5 million specials directed at kids to finish a long night of trick-or-treating. It was all planned accordingly, and it always worked. In those days, Halloween was embraced with extreme love; now that love has started to fade, times are different, …
