I recently had the opportunity to check out the new science fiction thriller film, Last Survivors, which premiered at Fright Fest at the end of October. The film was directed by Drew Mylrea and written by Josh Janowicz. It stars  Stephen Moyer, Alicia Silverstone, and Drew Van Acker and centers …

I have been waiting to review this movie for what feels like forever. Sure, it’s only been about a year since I’ve known about the existence of Chad Ridgely’s (our interview) feature film directorial debut, Self Isolated, but as soon as I’d heard about it, I was chomping at the …

As we all know, Nightmares Film Festival is one of the best film festivals out there, and although I wasn’t able to watch many of the films that premiered for their 2021 lineup, I did get to watch a few. One of them includes the horror-thriller, The Whooper Returns. This …
