Movie Reviews

Demián Rugna’s (Death Knows Your Name 2007) Terrified is a freaky ghost story that delivers. Let’s look at what makes it a good, potentially terrifying film! In order to appreciate this movie, you’ll want to analyze it. In the process, you’ll perhaps see layers of complexity that are hard to …

One of the things I love most about filmmaker Izzy Lee is that although I can always recognize her style, everything she does is unique and different from her previous project. This couldn’t be truer with her newest short, The Obliteration of the Chickens. This intriguing perspective of life as …

On paper and poster, Soldier of War is what you’d get if an author like Robert McCammon wrote First Blood.  An undead vet who doesn’t know World War II is over wages guerrilla war on the local police with a knife and sticks. In execution, it’s not quite the sum of …

I have yet to watch a New Zealand film I haven’t fallen in love with, and Mega Time Squad is no exception. There is just something about the Kiwi humor that consistently makes me laugh out loud. From the casual vulgarity of the characters to the endearing, polite dialogue exchanges …

When I first heard that Zach Green (read my interview with him here) and the folks over at Fatal Pictures had a new project in the works called Hang Up!, I was so very excited! I have LOVED everything they’ve put out so far, most especially the Box Cutter Trilogy – Heir …

The genesis of Anna and the Apocalypse, much like the film, is bittersweet. It originated in 2011 as a short film, Zombie Musical, from writer/director Ryan McHenry, who had plans to turn Zombie Musical into a feature and did some script work, but died of cancer in 2015 at age …

I can’t say I’m always in the mood for an action crime drama, but every once in awhile one tickles my fancy. When I first saw the trailer for The Girl in the Spider’s Web, I was instantly intrigued so I jumped at the chance to review it. Did it …
