Recently, Disney characters have been subject to overdone Disney-themed horror movies. Deadtime Stories is eons above this logic. We feed right into this nonsense, and it’s good to know not everything is a cash grab. Instead of stealing ideas, Deadtime Stories takes the whole cake. An original idea based on …

Since I was a child, I have always favored Frankenstein above all the other movies built to terrify an entire generation on the silver screen. To me, that was really cool, and later I realized I related more to the monster’s outlook on life. I was tortured by people who …

We all suffered a great loss, which seems to be a trend this year. Patrick Stewart left us with a fulfilling life and fandom. I was never a Star Trek fan; however, Patrick played many different parts, each more menacing in movies such as Green Room. The revival is certainly …
Read More »Everybody Loves A Clown: Jake Dufner and Kyle Godfrey’s ‘SIMON SAYS’ (2026) – Review
Most of the time, short films kind of bore me because they move so slowly.Often times I cannot, and still can’t, piece them together. Simon Says was definitely on a different spectrum of killer clown movies (except Terrifier). Simon Says is a project that moves quickly, but it does make …

So let’s face it, there are a great number of movies about holding hostages. I mean, I could think of at least five in a few seconds of preparation. However, I have never seen a movie like Breeder; it makes Buffalo Bill look like a cute little character, with a …

When I had the opportunity to screen Clementine Orange, I was a little wary. Romance movies combined with foreign films didn’t sound quite like my style. What I found was something easy to follow along with and an interesting story. I think maybe some of us know the danger of …

Before I even start, I get it. A lot of people are not very fond of remaking any classic movie that someone had a vision for. I try to be fair quite a bit, if not always. However, I have seen a lot of love for movies I already cherished. …

Halloween II (1981) hits really close to home. Like a ton of people I know, my cousin and I were raised by our grandparents. They worked their fingers to the bone, but every night we both sat with our grandma, and watched a horror movie. I would easily say I …

Stephen King presents us with those dreams that just stick with you forever. So many titles have been made into movies, and that’s how you know you are a kick ass author. For me, Thinner is by far the most disturbing Stephen King novel that was made into a film. …

I have always kind of detested movies that break the golden rules. I don’t buy into that stuff, and it’s hard to accept. There are certain times when you know a child died, but it just turns into blood and guts or something like that. A Cold Season did exactly …
