When I first saw the trailer for Becky (2020), I did a double take. Is that KEVIN JAMES? Holy shit, it is! From Everybody Loves Raymond to The King of Queens to Hitch, I’ve been a fan of Kevin’s comedy for years. Paul Blart: Mall Cop aside, he’s a lovable, …

In the era of pandemic uncertainty, the year 2020 has been rife with surprises. The film industry has been forced into a national work stoppage, leaving a shortage of horror films to satiate genre fans. Luckily, peaking up through the pile of rubble is a tasty snack of a film …

‘Where must we go… We who wander this Wasteland in search of our better selves?’ – The First History of Man It’s May 2015 and you’ve just walked out of the cinema. Your mouth is hanging ajar in awe and wonder. You expected a good action film. You expected something …

Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining (1980) is all about isolation. It’s a theme I think a lot of us can relate to right now. If you’re anything like me, you’ve been mostly locked inside for 2 or more months now. It’s a little maddening, isn’t it? So is it fitting or …

Last September 13 (and it was FRIDAY!), I was fortunate enough to spend an entire day at Camp No Be Bo Sco, the Boy Scout camp where the orginal Friday the 13th was filmed in 1979. My friend, Jeff Seeman, invited me to do some location shooting for his upcoming …

With cult classics like Dario Argento’s Suspiria (1977), The Craft (1996) and Netflix’s hit series, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, it’s safe to say we horror connoisseurs have a soft spot for witch flicks.

I absolutely love Ember Burns (read our interview with her here) ever since I first saw her as Heavenly Holly in Slaughterhouse: House of Whores 2.5 (2017). Ember is a woman of many talents: acting, writing, directing, and modeling. She really can do it all. Recently, she released her short …

William Malone’s Creature is bound to draw comparisons to Alien or even Aliens, although this 1985 film has enough to set it apart. While the alien itself (or the “Creature”) does have some similar characteristics to the Alien Queen, it also has some distinguishing features. In fact, this creature can literally …

Here there be spoilers… beware! I’m going to be honest. The first time I watched Friday the 13th (1980), I was disappointed that Jason wasn’t in it. I knew he was the franchise’s bad guy because I’d seen VHS boxes for the sequels at the video store, but it was …

Director Jeff Barnaby’s (Rhymes for Young Ghouls) Blood Quantum brings something new, fresh, and ingenious to the zombie genre: an indigenous horror film. The film stars Michael Greyeyes (Woman Walks Ahead), Elle-Maija Tailfeathers (The Body Remembers When the World Broke Open), Forrest Goodluck (The Revenant 2015), Kiowa Gordon (The Red …
