It’s wild to think that 40 years have gone by since the cult favorite Terrorvision first blasted onto screens on Valentine’s Day of 1986. This movie was written and directed by Ted Nicolaou (read our interview with him HERE). The killer cast includes Diane Franklin (Better Off Dead 1985), Mary …

My Bloody Valentine is a Canadian slasher directed by George Mihalka (Da Vinci’s Inquest TV series) and written by John Beaird (My Bloody Valentine 3-D 2009 – read our retro review here), released on February 11, 1981. The story involves a group of miners who decide to throw their own Valentine’s …

Haunted attractions are my thing. I have been a scare actor for 6 years, and the movie hit a nostalgic spot. There aren’t really too many movies centered around the job I love, such as The Houses October Built or Haunt. They dare you to come witness the sights and …

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is a tremendous and refreshingly bold effort from director Gore Verbinski, who returns to genre filmmaking with a wild, ambitious, and unexpectedly heartfelt science-fiction thriller. Starring Sam Rockwell at full throttle, the film follows a man who storms an L.A. diner, takes the patrons …

Shelter is a surprisingly strong and welcome turn from Jason Statham, signaling what feels like a genuine resurgence in his career. Long known for his tough-guy charisma and kinetic action roles, Statham has steadily carved out a niche as this generation’s Bruce Willis or Sylvester Stallone — a reliable action …

In Cold Light could have been a powerful and emotionally gripping film, but it never quite reaches its full potential. Instead, it feels like the first chapter of a trilogy that was rushed to the screen, tangled in exposition, and overly eager to get to the action without laying the …
