As we all know, anthology horror can be an extremely mixed bag. A single anthology can feature an amazing, top-tier short right alongside a worthless turd. A couple come to mind, but I’m not here to shit on specific titles. (looks like i need to put the breaks on my scatological references too! 2 refs … More Ghost Stories (2018) – Review
Some of you were probably wondering what happened to good ol’ Jason D. Well, wonder no more! I’m back. What’s that? You didn’t notice I was gone. And you don’t think I’m good? Well, shit. Either way, it’s been too long but I’m back with another timely review for 1993’s Dark Waters. And by ‘timely’, … More Dark Waters (1993) – REVIEW
If you’re like me, you’ve probably heard some good things about Joe Lynch’s latest feature, Mayhem. If you’re not like me and don’t feel the constant drive to find and watch new horror, spending hours reading about upcoming genre films, and stalking horror writers and creators on Twitter, then good for you. Your hobby-life balance … More Mayhem (2017) – REVIEW
Poor Agnes played here in Chicago at the Cinepocalypse Film Fest. Admittedly, I’ve never heard of director, Navin Ramaswaran before. Maybe because he hasn’t made a straight-up horror feature before (as far as I can tell). Whatever the reason, I had zero expectations going into Poor Agnes. I pretty much knew it was playing the … More Poor Agnes (2017) – REVIEW
Shyamalan has given us some great films and some turds. So with each new film, we roll the dice (or we give up and ignore his output altogether). When Split hit theaters, I figured I’d check it out eventually but I was in no big rush to see it. Sure, I liked his last film, … More Split (2016) – REVIEW
My final, final review from the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival this year is for Tragedy Girls. It’s been fun and I hope to cover the fest next year. Let’s get into it, shall we? McKayla and Sadie are hellbent on building their social media brand by any means necessary. Their brand is murder and … More Tragedy Girls – REVIEW
My penultimate review from my remote coverage of the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival is for Clementina, a film from Argentina by Jimena Monteoliva. I mention her, not because I expect you to know her work offhand, but because she shows the potential to be someone whose work you will know offhand. Let’s get into it, … More Clementina (2017) – REVIEW
The Brooklyn Horror Film Festival is behind us, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still talk about some of the films that played there! For example, I’m about to talk about the Mexican film, Veronica. All you have to do is read! Let’s get into it, shall we? A retired psychologist living in … More Veronica (2017) – REVIEW
Next up in my suite of reviews for the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival is the Canadian film, The Crescent. Let’s get into it, shall we? (yes, i am aware that my intros for festival reviews are pretty weak. if it upsets you to miss out on my rambling about things like ‘i thought The Crescent … More The Crescent (2017) – REVIEW
Next up in my suite of reviews for the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival is the German (Austrian?) film, Hagazussa (aka: Hagazussa: A Heathen’s Curse). Let’s get into it shall, we? Albrun has always been an outsider in her tiny mountain region. She has lived in the same cabin outside of the village her whole life. … More Hagazussa (2017) – REVIEW
