Movie Reviews

We’re finally wrapping up our last review for the 2018 Screamfest Horror Film Festival. It was a great year, full of horrifyingly wonderful films and we are honored to have helped cover it. The last one on our list is the haunting horror short, So She Might Live. From Patrick …

Nowadays, it seems like everyone is ultra-sensitive and squeamish — including many horror fans! For those who occasionally wish to kick it old school and see an unapologetically sleazy (and just plain weird) horror flick, Machine Gun Baby may be just what the abortion doctor ordered! That’s right: A major theme …

I love documentaries! Some of the best ones I’ve seen this year are For the Love of the Boogeyman: 40 Years of Halloween, The Bill Murray Stories, Wolfman’s Got Nards, and now The Dollhouse. I got the chance to watch The Dollhouse as coverage for the 2018 Screamfest Film Festival. When …

October was insanely busy, but we’re wrapping our coverage for festivals all around the world, including the 2018 Screamfest Film Festival.

As someone who was bullied throughout junior and high school, as well as backhanded compliments from family members, I’ve always wondered what it would be like to say or even do exactly what I was thinking. In my mind, it never ends well, so I mostly just kept it all …

I absolutely love horror shorts. They’re like bite-sized chunks of terror that deliver a pitiless punch in just a fraction of the time a full length genre film. But, because of their short time frame, the filmmaker is usually limited as to what they can actually touch upon. However, in …

Not since the halcyon days of Bruce Li/Lai/Le has there been a motion picture sold on the intentional deception of its star looking like some other guy. Considering I first caught wind of Death Kiss from a headline that announced Charles Bronson’s return to acting (and from the grave), the …
