A couple months ago Obsession wasn’t even on my radar. I found out about from a friend who was excited about it. I pretty much avoided trailers, wanting to be surprised as much as possible. I was a little worried I would be disappointed with Obsession, as the critical consensus …
Read More »‘HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME’ (1981): Cutting Cake and Slicing Throats – Retro Review
When it comes to ’80s Canadian slashers, Happy Birthday to Me is often overlooked by Bob Clark’s Black Christmas (1974) and My Bloody Valentine (1981). While Happy Birthday to Me isn’t as flawless, the film is a classic and deserves to be on the same level as those other Canadian gems. …

If you weren’t alive in the 1990’s, it was a VERY different time period. Kids today that go around saying “six seven” might run into one of their parents that lived in the 90’s that will stand up and shout “I AM THE GREAT CORNHOLIO, I NEED TP FOR MY …
Read More »Won’t You Be My Creepy Neighbor? Christian Jude Grillo’s ‘NEIGHBOR’ (2026) – Review
Neighbor was handed down through our ranks and quickly became something I cherish for multiple reasons. From the aesthetic, down to the story, it all rocked. At first, I didn’t see the hype until I watched the film. This movie is for anyone who has had that one neighbor who …
Read More »I Love ’80s Slashers: A Look Back At ‘THE BURNING’ (1981)
Much in the same way that Sean Cunningham ripped off John Carpenter’s Halloween, many filmmakers since have ripped off Friday The 13th (1980). In my opinion, one of the best F13 ripoffs is 1981’s The Burning. In just the past few years, The Burning has gained quite a cult following. …
Read More »All Hail Shamu: Jo-Ann Brechin’s ‘KILLER WHALE’ (2026) – Review
Killer animals are my way of making me laugh, when the animals target the people who were horrible to them to take revenge. However, it kind of gets redundant; though, there are a million ways these movies are about the same movie over and over again. We have different animals …
Read More »‘HOKUM’ Finds Terror in Silence and Shadows – Review
HOKUM is a quietly unsettling horror film that proves atmosphere can be far more powerful than shock value. Set in a remote, weather-worn hotel, the film leans into isolation and ambiguity, creating a sense of unease that builds steadily rather than relying on obvious scares. It’s the kind of movie that …
Read More »And Cut: Calvin Morie McCarthy’s ‘EVIDENCE OF THE BOOGEYMAN’ (2025) – Review
Calvin Morie McCarthy’s Evidence Of The Boogeyman is a jump-scare-invested visual effects piece that actually made me jump a bit. The crew knew exactly how to piece together a good, twisted ride of a bunch of “What the f**k?” moments. I always come across a lot of these up-and-comers on …

,József Gallai’s The Black Eyed Children is a movie that I will do my best to be fair with. I will explain my reasoning through the next few paragraphs to try to figure out the plot. The film left me with a hunger for more; I am always fair and …
