Movie Reviews

Vision Film’s Nation’s Fire is a bit of mixed bag for me. Its heart is in the right place with what it wanted to do, but I felt that the finished product just wasn’t all that great. The acting was there with Bruce Dern (The ‘Burbs 1989) and Krista Grotte …

It’s Vinegar Syndrome time again! For March/April 2020, we were a bit spoiled, getting 4 separate Blu-rays to review from the film restoration company. We started with a review of Vin Syn’s Deadline (1980) 2k restoration DVD/Blu-ray (you can read that review here), and now we’re here with a look …

Whoo boy, what did I just watch? I’m not quite sure if I’ve ever seen a movie like this, but I gotta say, I actually enjoyed every single minute of it. When my editor first asked if I wanted to review anything, she showed me the trailer for Butt Boy …

Although I’m an essential employee, I’ve still been indulging in as many movies and books as I can to escape from the current reality we are living in. It’s crazy out there, folks but art saves lives. One of my recent favorites is We Summon the Darkness, which took me …

I’ve never done acid, but I imagine the experience must be something akin to watching Michael Reich’s (Video Town 2013) hallucinatory film, She’s Allergic to Cats. The film stars Mike Pinkney (Video Town 2013), Sonja Kinski (Dark Hearts 2014), Flula Borg (Pitch Perfect 2 2015), and Mike Daze (I Love …

I enjoy nothing more than discovering an awesome new indie horror film. There are certain filmmakers that can really speak to you through their story/script. Jason Zink is, without a doubt, one of those filmmakers. I am excited to tell you all why I fancied his film, Straight Edge Kegger. …

When I first heard about Patrick Lussier and Todd Farmer’s latest collaboration, Trick (2019 – read another PopHorror writer’s thoughts here), I was tremendously excited. I have been a fan of Lussier since Dracula 2000 (which I have fond memories of watching with my older sister on VHS) and of …

For the last year, I’ve enjoyed everything that IFC Midnight has put out. After seeing the trailer for The Other Lamb, I was hooked it instantly. I love cult films and couldn’t wait to check out this one. This is award-winning Polish director Ma?gorzata Szumowska’s English language debut. The film …

While you’re stuck at home and running out of things to do, take a moment to check out what’s going on over at Vinegar Syndrome. You’ll be glad you did. Just this month, they’ve released DVD/Blu-ray combos of Olivia (1981), Deadline (1980) and Malabimba (1979), plus a very special limited edition of 1984’s Hell …

Brad Twigg (Frames Of Fear 2 2017 – read our review here) and Fuzzy Monkey’s latest release, Frames Of Fear 3, is an entertaining anthology full of mayhem and gore. The film is a collaborative effort, and it really does feel that there is a story in here for everyone. …
