We all know the standard tale of vengeance that Meir Zarchi’s 1978 film, I Spit on Your Grave, perfected.

The horror movie, Pledge, just recently had its premiere at the 2018 Fantasia International Film Festival. Before going into this film, I didn’t know much about it beyond its title.

Last night, I was witness to the debut of the long awaited film, Summer of ‘84, to a local Montreal crowd and a sold out theater during the 2018 Fantasia International Film Festival. The atmosphere was electric! When Directors Yoann-Karl Whissell, Anouk Whissell, and Francois Simard hit the stage, you could …

Dustin Wayde Mills is a prolific indie horror director, having an impressive 25 directing credits in just 8 years. That being said, I’m not as familiar with his work as I should be. After seeing The Hornet’s Sting and The Hell It’s Caused, I will definitely be remedying that sooner …

When I first reported on filmmaker Ryan Swantek’s sophomoric project, Panther Ridge, I wasn’t quite sure what kind of film this was going to be. Would it be sexy? Disgusting? Terrifying? How about all three? I got the chance to check it out, and boy, was I surprised. Official Synopsis …
