I have been a horror fan for almost my entire life. My first horror memory is from when I was very young. I was resisting going to sleep and doing that kid thing where I ask for a drink just to stay up a little longer. My parents were watching Magic (1978) on TV. I … More Scarecrows (1988) – REVIEW
Backwoods killers is a robust subgenre that has been around for ages. Heck, my all-time favorite horror movie is a backwoods killer movie that’s over 50 years old – The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. (or Chain Saw if you want to be screen accurate) But for every TCSM we get 10 or 20 awful films like … More Dolly (2025) – REVIEW
I really liked Evil Dead (2013). It did a great job of taking up the mantle from the excellent Raimi films. It had everything I would want in a reboot – a cabin in the woods setting, a dumbass reading aloud from a cursed book, eerie sound effects/soundtrack, and a plucky protagonist. I even liked … More Evil Dead Burn (2026) – REVIEW
I largely ignored the Scanners-verse after Conenberg’s original. That one was pretty good. Not one of my favorites from the master of body horror, but definitely worth rewatching every few years or so. When I saw “David Cronenberg’s Scanner Cop” on the cover art (or poster or whatever), I wondered if the man really had … More Scanner Cop (1994) – REVIEW
Who the fuck is Lee Cronin? That was my first thought when I saw the ads for this movie. I am a pretty big horror fan, but his name did not ring any bells. At the time, I didn’t really care. The film was getting mixed reviews and mummies are not particularly my thing. I … More Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) – REVIEW
I knew nothing about The A-Frame before finding it in a “far-out sci-fi” category on Tubi. I watched the trailer and it was okay, so I decided to roll the dice. Sci-fi horror is a favorite sub-genre of mine, so I’m always on the lookout. I’m usually disappointed, but sometimes I find a gem. Does … More The A-Frame (2024) – REVIEW
The Terrifier films are divisive among horror fans (and the horror tourists who like them are insufferable). I happen to appreciate the gore effects and the creative kills. But I have a couple of issues with the first two. Namely that they were both poorly acted and the second was overlong (unnecessarily so since we’re … More Terrifier 3 (2024) – REVIEW
I did it, folks! Over 31 new-to-me horror films watched since Oct. 1st. This and 31 full reviews are just a couple of the perks of being unemployed! (laughter devolves into sobs) 44 Hell Hole (2024) – An American fracking operation in Serbia digs up a live man infected with an aggressive cephalopod-like parasite. I … More 31+ Micro-reviews for October 2025
Samara Weaving is sort of a nepo baby. Her uncle Hugo was in a couple of huge franchises and I’m sure that helped her get her foot in Hollywood’s door. It helps that she is gorgeous in a conventionally attractive way. It also helps that she’s a pretty damn good actor. And she seems to … More Azrael (2024) – REVIEW
I chose Uncle Peckerhead for my 22nd film of 31 this month for reasons that may sound familiar if you’ve been following along lately. Namely, I saw the trailer a long time ago and it looked like fun. So I put it in my queue where it languished until now. I’ve been feeling pretty good … More Uncle Peckerhead (2020) – REVIEW
