Movie Reviews

I adore a good atmospheric story. Great scenery can sometimes help the viewer forgive a multitude of sins in a film. But atmosphere only takes a film so far, and the story still must sustain the finished product. The story in Fionn and Toby Watt’s new film, Playhouse, almost holds …

Being a fan of vampire movies, I was quite eager to sink my fangs into Blood Immortal, set to be released in the US on DVD and for streaming on October 20, 2020. Sadly, this movie did not quench my thirst. The story follows three generations of female vampires who, …

Murder hornets, protests, riots, gender reveal parties sparking wildfires… 2020 is like nothing we’ve ever seen. National lockdowns and a global pandemic are preventing all human interaction. Stocks and 401Ks plummet while duel hurricanes threaten to tag-team Florida … and not in a fun way. Yes, this apocalyptic year we …

“From acclaimed filmmaker/editor Vince Rocca (The Ghostmaker) comes the unholy hybrid of Modern Family and Paranormal Activity that blends family drama, unspeakable horrors, and undying love with a mix of social media into a pulse-pounding supernatural mystery.” I loved everything about 8ight After and it’s one of the best made …

I recently got to watch a film that was nonstop craziness. Chop, Chop is one crazy and bizarre ride with twists and turns along the way. This film was directed and produced by Rony Patel, from a script he co-wrote with Andrew Ericksen. Atala Arce and Jake Taylor star as …

A Babysitter’s Guide to Monster Hunting is a new fantasy comedy that is currently streaming on Netflix. It looked like the perfect film to watch during October, so I had to check it out. This film was directed by Rachel Talalay (Tank Girl, Freddy’s Dead) with a screenplay by Joe …

Wow, I’m super impressed. Five twisted tales of terror, The Mortuary Collection, transports you back to anthology films of the ’70s with “loving inspiration from EC horror comics, Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg, and the power of storytelling, and is a Halloween classic in the making.” I loved everything about The …

I love a robbery gone bad film and The Owners may just be the best one yet. It’s the perfect twisted thriller with great performances and beautiful imagery! The film was directed by The Forest’s (2017) Julius Berg (read our interview with him here) who co-wrote the film with Matthieu Gompel (The Dream …

I had no clue what to expect from RLJE Films’ Spree and holy shit was that one hell of a crazy and brutal ride. I didn’t expect that much intensity and chaos but Spree delivers on all aspects. Spree was directed by Eugene Kotlyarenko (Wobble Place, 0s & 1s) from …

What if The Strangers were people you knew? Hosts brings that premise to life in a darkly unapologetic way. Sometimes, the terror that awaits you is right next door, and sometimes it unknowingly enters your home, right under your nose. The notion that realistic fear hits viewers in a deeper way is a terrifyingly …
