I recently had the pleasure of viewing a 2017 short film written and directed by Jaanelle Yee (Teeth And Lungs) called Sell Your Body. It stars an amazing cast including Nadira Foster-Williams (Whatever This Is 2013), Pauline Sherrow (Sex, Drugs And Rock & Roll 2015), and Menuhin Hart (Dean Supreme …

Written and directed by Un Lugar Mejor’s (2013) Marisa Crespo and Moisés Romera, 9 Pasos (9 steps) is a horror short that packs a lot of terror into seven minutes. The film stars Jordi Ballester (The Sea Inside 2004) and the debut of Pablo Muñoz. Synopsis: Saul’s father is losing …

One of the most talked about Vinegar Syndrome releases from 2019 was 1986’s Spookies. When they revealed that the Blu-ray was going to be a part of their Black Friday sale, seemingly overnight, there was a buzz among horror fans about the release. Spookies has a deep cult following, and …
