Movie Reviews

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 …

I’ve never been so excited to cover a film festival as I am to help cover the 2019 Fantasia International Film Festival. So first and foremost, I would like to thank Fantasia for allowing me to help cover this coveted festival with all of these amazing films. Seeing all of …

Critters Attack! answers the old question of, “What is a good horror movie to start my kids on?” and that’s not a bad thing… After the polarizing mixed reviews of the recent Critters series brought to us by Shudder, Critters Attack! is sure to follow suit. It’s almost impossible to …
