I love it when I assume I know what a film is going to be about and I’m proven completely wrong once I watch it. That’s exactly what happened when I clicked the link for Dan Robinette’s most recent short, Psycho Path. Synopsis: Laurel Rhodes is a backpacking vlogger who specializes …

I don’t know about you guys, but I grew up reading Alvin Schwartz’ Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark book series, taking out the school library’s only copies over and over until the pages were thin and the covers were frayed (sorry, Webster Middle School librarian). I loved that …

There have been a ton of movies about people being stuck out in the middle of the ocean with a broken boat and no way to contact help. Besides the obvious problems of drowning and sharks, the reason these movies terrify us so is because we like to be in …

I love to talk with Actor Casper Van Dien. He’s funny, attentive and down to earth, qualities that many who have spent decades in the Hollywood limelight seem to forget. Every since his breakout role in the sci-fi action film, Starship Troopers (1997), Van Dien has been on a wild …

We’ve all heard of Robert Downey, Jr. Between his time as a Brat Packer back in the ’80s with films like Weird Science and Less Than Zero, to his his drug abuse troubles not long after, to his comeback in 2008 as Marvel’s Iron Man, the guy is recognizable to …

Let’s …

I’ve watched a lot of movies in my time. I’ve seen just about all of the genre cliches and tropes, and nothing really surprises me anymore. Of course, that doesn’t stop me from searching for new stuff any chance I get. When I chose to review Lake Michigan Monster (2018) …

I’m an ’80s girl. I grew up in the ’80s; I wore the clothes, teased my hair, played with lawn darts and watched movies. It was right around 1985 that the Brat Pack was coined, named after a band of young actors, including Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Rob Lowe, …

Anyone who knows me or has read my PopHorror bio knows that I love everything about Lucky McKee’s (read our interview with him here) film, The Woman (2011), which was based on the Off Season book series by the late Jack Ketchum. This cannibalistic gem is actually a sequel to Andrew …

One of my very favorite things to find in my mailbox is a package from Vinegar Syndrome. The flicks they choose to restore and distribute were produced primarily between the 1960s and 1980s, before political correctness when what filmmakers put on tape was fast and loose.
