Movie Reviews

Although I’m an essential employee, I’ve still been indulging in as many movies and books as I can to escape from the current reality we are living in. It’s crazy out there, folks but art saves lives. One of my recent favorites is We Summon the Darkness, which took me …

I’ve never done acid, but I imagine the experience must be something akin to watching Michael Reich’s (Video Town 2013) hallucinatory film, She’s Allergic to Cats. The film stars Mike Pinkney (Video Town 2013), Sonja Kinski (Dark Hearts 2014), Flula Borg (Pitch Perfect 2 2015), and Mike Daze (I Love …

I enjoy nothing more than discovering an awesome new indie horror film. There are certain filmmakers that can really speak to you through their story/script. Jason Zink is, without a doubt, one of those filmmakers. I am excited to tell you all why I fancied his film, Straight Edge Kegger. …

When I first heard about Patrick Lussier and Todd Farmer’s latest collaboration, Trick (2019 – read another PopHorror writer’s thoughts here), I was tremendously excited. I have been a fan of Lussier since Dracula 2000 (which I have fond memories of watching with my older sister on VHS) and of …

Brad Twigg (Frames Of Fear 2 2017 – read our review here) and Fuzzy Monkey’s latest release, Frames Of Fear 3, is an entertaining anthology full of mayhem and gore. The film is a collaborative effort, and it really does feel that there is a story in here for everyone. …

The best thing about independent horror movies is that so many of them are made by horror fans for horror fans. When working on these films, the filmmakers know what the audience wants, because they know what they would want to see. Recently, I’ve noticed that a lot of indie directors …

Ever since The Hunt was announced last year, I’ve been dying to see it much like everyone else I know. With the current pandemic going on and everyone on mandatory quarantine, I thought it was the perfect time to indulge in a horror-comedy. Warning: Slight spoilers ahead, but nothing big. …

I recently watched an amazing dark thriller short called Scratch. If you love Sin City, you will love this. This is one of the best and unique short stories ever. This short was directed and written by Ronan Jorah. The cast includes Carey Van Driest, JR Carter, Mark Delabarre, and R.J. …
