Sleepaway Camp (1983) – Retro Review

Have you ever wanted to go to summer camp as a kid? Well, thanks to movies like Friday the 13th, Cannibal Campout, and Sleepaway Camp, my mother thought I was going to get sliced and diced during my summer camping retreat. I can’t really blame her for thinking that I was going …

Review – Felt (2015)

Fair Warning: This review is gonna get into some heavy shit, including rape, sexual violence, and spoilers for several movies (including Last House On The Left and Silent House, among others.) Not as heavy as that Human Centipede article, but still pretty gnarly. Just lettin’ you know. Oftentimes in the …

Review – DEATHGASM (2015)

Heavy metal and horror go together like pizza and booze: heavy metal songs have been inspired by horror movies, horror movies feature heavy metal soundtracks, heavy metal albums feature horror-inspired imagery on album covers, heavy metal features as a plot device in certain horror movies – the list goes on …

The Shallows (2016) – Review

Everyone loves a good shark story. However, shark movies in recent years haven’t been all too great. The made for T.V. movie, Sharknado, has gained quite the cult following, along with sequels, but it’s more cheesy fun than it is actually good. Besides those, nothing that has came out has …

Emelie (2015) – Review

I consider all movies a form of art. So I do my best to respect them, even if they do not jive with me. The other night, I decided to give 2015’s Emelie a watch. It had dynamic characters, a premise that has not been done before, and some well-shot …

Underrated Gems – Mockingbird (2014)

Watching a found footage film is like going out on a first date. You’re all excited as you get ready; you pick your date up and head out to a fancy restaurant. As you sit in front of them, you first notice a zit ready to pop in the middle of their forehead and they …
