Bright

I don’t know about you but since Netflix showed the trailer of Bright months ago, I was so fucking excited. Orcs and elves and magic…my RPG-loving self-was positively giddy with excitement. Little did I know what was in store. There are some spoilers ahead and be aware, this movie is …

Made Me Do It (2017) Film Review

Writer/director Benjamin Ironside Koppin delivers Made Me Do It, a psychological slasher which fortunately uses the up close and personal approach when introducing the killer.

House of Salem (2017) – Movie Review

When I first heard about the 2017 horror flick House of Salem, it sounded to me like a bunch of horror cliches thrown together to form a mishmash of storylines but no fathomable plot. Too many arcs can kill a story, horror or otherwise. I didn’t want to see this …
