It’s always a thrill to go to conventions, whether they’re horror, sci-fi, comic, film or anything in between. When I was offered the chance to go to the Rhode Island Comic Con once again (here’s our coverage from last year’s event) for PopHorror, where all genres are covered, I knew …

I love anthologies, especially horror based ones. It’s always a great way to past the time and discover hidden gems you never knew of. Even if most of them are bad, there’s almost always at least one that steals the show. Blood, Sweat, and Terrors definitely took me by surprise …
Read More »‘American Guinea Pig: Sacrifice’ (2017) Movie Review
There is no denying that body horror has its place in this genre. Gruesome display of blood, guts, intestines and disfigurement can purposefully increase discomfort among horror audiences. While we once thought mainstream American filmmakers were pushing the limits with the birth of torture porn, we were sadly mistaken when …

Italian director Davide Pesca returns to deliver another collection of tales of the deranged, artistic and gore-riddled. The last film I had the pleasure of watching from Pesca was Tales From Deep Hell, a ride through a gory and macabre Hades where the devil is the least of your worries. …

While mingling through the vendors at the H40: 40 Years of Terror Convention (see our review of the event here), I stumbled across Sammy Ruiz’s booth. The art he had on display was radiant of a dazzling creepy appeal with inspirational ties to other artists. He is a charismatic artist who …

Directed by Christian Alvart, Case 39 emerged from the horror depths in 2009. In many respects, it stands as another testament to film critics getting it all wrong. In fact, the critic’s response to this movie may discourage star Renee Zellweger from appearing in horror again. That’s probably a shame, because …

Lately, I find myself gravitating more towards great television than movies. Maybe it’s a time commitment thing, or a short attention span on my part. Either way, I’ve been pretty impressed at how the wave of genre television has spun back around, and how well done everything is. We’re gonna …
Read More »Run Away With A Thriller Of A Film In ‘Welcome Home’ (2018) Movie Review
Welcome Home was a sometimes creepy – sometimes creeper – kind of flick. The mark of a good director is that they can change the tone of a film at the drop of a hat, and George Ratliff (Joshua 2007) defiantly pulls this off effortlessly. Welcome Home will make you …

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” It’s a simple enough question, one we’ve all undoubtedly been asked at least once in our lifetimes. It probably shouldn’t be an elusive answer, although for myself personally, I still feel it’s a question that’s gone unanswered. I never really …

Alexandra Feld is going places. Already a producing powerhouse with her family company, Feld Films, she was utterly fantastic in her feature film debut in Killer Kate! (you can read my review here), a horror comedy written and directed by her husband, Elliot Feld (you can read my interview with him …
