Movie Reviews

Every now and again, a trailer will come along seemingly out of nowhere and just completely blow you away. Such was the case for me with the trailer for Artsploitation’s 2016 Norwegian chiller, Huset (The House). I’ve always been a sucker for foreign horror. The world has so much to …

Lords Of Chaos has been a hot commodity in many underground film circles on social media since its release. When I go on Facebook and scroll my news feed, I can’t escape the mention or discussion of it by many. Some disregard it, some praise it, some find it entertaining …

Last month, I was greeted at my mailbox by a package from one of my very favorite film distributors, Vinegar Syndrome (see my review of their 4k Blu-ray release of 1993’s Body Melt here). Since I hadn’t ordered anything from them recently, the contents inside that inconspicuous mailing envelope were …

A24’s The Hole in the Ground is one of the many films that premiered at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival, and I’ve been dying to check it out, even before then. At first thought, I was like, “Oh, yay… Another story about a creepy kid,” but after seeing the trailers …

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 …
