PopHorror Let's Get Scared

For Cinepocalypse, I reviewed a short film called Killer Of Killers, directed by Don Swaynos (Beaver Trilogy Part IV 2015, Don’t Ever Change 2018 – read our review here). Most of the time, when you review a project for a film festival, all you have to go on is the …

The Craft is undergoing the remake treatment fairly soon, and like many reimaginings, people will soon start the contentious debate over whether it’s a good idea. All that aside, let’s remember that we can always look back to the original film, regardless of how the new one pans out. Let’s …

Lucky McKee is one of my favorite indie filmmakers in the horror world. I adore The Woman and May and I couldn’t wait to check out his new thriller Kindred Spirits. Luckily for me, I got a chance to check it out at its World Premiere during the 2019 Cinepocalypse …

I absolutely love Man Vs Nature type of films. They’re fun, entertaining, and often horrifying as you try to picture yourself in whatever situation that is happening. As soon as I heard about Crawl, I couldn’t wait to sink my teeth into it. Killer alligators? Count me in. Nothing could be …

The film festival, known for its bloodcurdling entertainment, granted moviegoers with a rare, 35mm presentation of the 1994 comedy, Airheads, in celebration of the film’s 25th anniversary. In attendance was the film’s director, Michael Lehman (Heathers 1988, Because I …

When I got asked to check out the highly anticipated horror thriller, BLIND, I couldn’t wait to sink my teeth into it. This film has so many of my favorite indie actors in it and the storyline really drew me in. Losing your eyesight suddenly would be hard for anybody. …

Hunting For Justice is a short film from Sick & Twisted Cinema’s Thomas Smith, who also worked on the special effects and helped produce Drew Pizzo’s film, Back Road (read my review here). I’m not usually one for short films, as they always feel like they end right as things start …
