Released on May 1, 1987, Michael Gornick’s Creepshow 2 just happens to turn 35 this month. That’s some respectable company to be in. The summer of 1987 was epic for movie releases. I can’t even begin to do it full justice. Let me just mention a few: The Lost Boys, …

Michael Kallio’s The Scout is a found footage horror flick that takes the perspective of an in-progress, behind-the-scenes documentary on a fictional, micro budget horror film gone wrong.

Randall Okita’s See For Me is about a blind teenage skier named Sophie (Skyler Davenport) who must fend off robbers while cat-sitting in a somewhat remote wealthy home. It is an interesting story because it gets its title from an app that she uses. See For Me lets a professional …

On the Trail of UFOs: Night Visitors (2022) is an out-of-this-world documentary by Seth Breedlove and Small Town Monsters. The film is directed by Seth Breedlove (On the Trail of Bigfoot 2021 – our review) and stars Shannon LeGro (On the Trail of UFOs: Dark Sky 2021 – our review). …

In my humble opinion, Kiah and Tristan Roache-Turner’s Wyrmwood: Road Of The Dead (2014) is one of the best action zombie movies ever made.
