It was somewhere between the needlessly long take of a man mourning at his father’s grave and an unrelated phone call ranking the most missed genitals between two-thirds of a three-partner relationship that I knew I was in trouble with Shed. The screener description and the IMDb synopsis are both …

Sometimes in life, all you need is love and psychotic tendencies… well, for some couples. That was definitely the case for Mickey and Mallory Knox. Twenty-five years ago, we witnessed two murderous deviants fall in love, destroy every life in their path, and gain infamy. In celebration, PopHorror looks back …

Dale Fabrigar’s film, D-Railed, has a pretty simple but stylized title. It could be a Liam Neeson action flick on a train or a hip, urban crime drama centered around an NYC subway. For me, it was a total blind watch. I’m always a fan of that approach if I …

With the season coming to an end, I had to end it with a good, old fashioned summer movie, and I chose to watch 47 Meters Down: Uncaged, originally titled 48 Meters Down or 47 Meters Down: The Next Chapter. The first film (read our review here) was okay, but …

I love a good old fashioned Halloween romp. Moreover, I feel like it’s an experience growing scarcer and scarcer. We’re losing the mischievous kind of horror that audiences enjoyed from gems like Gremlins and Tales from the Crypt. Thankfully, we have Dead Peasant’s new horror comic series, Blood & Gourd. The …

With the recent 32nd anniversary of the iconic film The Monster Squad, I couldn’t help but press play on one of my go to, once a year, must watch films. A perfect mix of Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948), and The Goonies (1985), The Monster Squad is just what …
