Movie Reviews

One reason I love eighties horror is that there were no rules; it was a “wild west” scenario. There were a lot of stories to be told. Sadly, most movies that attracted a great deal of attention often had to resort to making ten installments, driving us into boredom. We …

E. Elias Merhige’s Shadow Of The Vampire is iconic for many reasons. It’s sheer brilliance, going behind the scenes of one of the oldest monsters that terrified people. However, 1922 is far into the past. Some things keep the silent film era alive. The movie is based on fabricated events …

I’m a big fan of historical horror. This obsession likely started when I was a kid and first saw Heavy Metal (1981). My favorite segment involved the Pacific Pearl‘s B-17 bomber crew getting overrun by undead soldiers, reanimated by the mysterious Loc-Nar. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise …

The Family at Center of Freddy’s Darkest Secrets Directed by Emma Tammi, Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 centers on Mike Schmidt (Josh Hutcherson: The Hunger Games) as he continues to try to build a sense of normalcy for himself and his younger sister Abby (Piper Rubio) after the events at …

Dust Bunny has some visual effects that immediately call to mind Guillermo del Toro, particularly the textured, storybook darkness of Pan’s Labyrinth. There’s a tactile quality to the creatures and environments that makes the world feel lived in rather than digitally sterile. For a feature film debut, Bryan Fuller shows …

Emmett Alston’s New Year’s Evil helped spawn an entire iconic era for the horror genre. Horror was just making a comeback after years of terrible films. Let’s face it, we all know there are some pretty bad blockbusters out there. There is no imagination anymore unless you are making a …
