Blue My Mind (2017) – Review

July 28, 2018

I’m continuing my coverage of Fantasia Int’l Film Festival 2018 with the Swiss coming of age film, Blue My Mind. Enough chit – chat. Let’s get into it!   Mia is 15. She’s starting at a new school and she’s eager to get in with the cool kids. After a rocky start, they accept her … More Blue My Mind (2017) – Review

Mexico Barbaro II (2017) – REVIEW

October 14, 2017

Mexico Barbaro II (barbarous Mexico 2) is a horror anthology successor to Mexico Barbaro (also a horror anthology , but that’s probably obvious) And it played the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival. Which, I am covering remotely (because i am a shut in). As with the last MB, I will review each segment individually. Let’s get … More Mexico Barbaro II (2017) – REVIEW

Sequence Break (2017) – REVIEW

July 28, 2017

I’m really cranking these Fantasia Int’l Film Fest reviews out! (by “cranking”, i mean that i’m way behind and scrambling to get movies watched and reviews written while also having a job and a family. what i’m saying is this: you’re welcome) Next up, Sequence Break!   Oz (Os?) repairs classic arcade games for a … More Sequence Break (2017) – REVIEW

Replace (2017) – REVIEW

July 20, 2017

Next up in my Fantasia Int’l Film Festival 2017 coverage lineup is Replace from German-born director, Norbert Keil. (i know “German-born” doesn’t really convey any relevant info, but it beefs this intro up a bit)   Kira spends the night at her new boyfriend’s place and wakes up alone. She takes the less-than-subtle hint and … More Replace (2017) – REVIEW

Afflicted (2013) – REVIEW

December 26, 2016

I saw the trailer for Afflicted a long time ago. At the time, I wrote it off as another found footage, digital effects reel that I would get around to eventually. I figured it would be one of those movies that I wouldn’t necessarily hate, but I wouldn’t necessarily love either. So, I didn’t make … More Afflicted (2013) – REVIEW

The Similars (2016) – REVIEW

November 23, 2016

Isaac Ezban’s entry in the Mexico Barbaro anthology was my least favorite by a long shot. It was misogynistic, predictable, unfunny, had poor creature effects, and it used an annoying beat-up-old film filter effect that added nothing to the story and distracted the viewer. So, when I heard his latest, The Similars (Los Parecidos), was … More The Similars (2016) – REVIEW

Shelley (2016) – REVIEW

July 23, 2016

Next up in my Fantasia International Film Fest 2016 review spree – Shelley from director, Ali Abbasi. (i don’t know why i’m compelled to type the entire official Fantasia 2016 title. i guess i imagine that i have readers that aren’t familiar w/ it and they would be like, ‘they remade Disney’s Fantasia!?’, if i … More Shelley (2016) – REVIEW

In My Skin (2002) – REVIEW

March 30, 2016

  Sticking with a body horror theme for this week, I got to thinking about some of the great (read: most disturbing) body horror films that may have slipped under the average (American) horror fan’s radar. Possibly because they didn’t get a wide release, didn’t get much buzz, featured subtitles (i know, i know, reading is … More In My Skin (2002) – REVIEW

REVIEW – Antiviral (2012)

March 29, 2016

  Body horror. It’s a subgenre that is especially hard-hitting because we all (or at least most of us) have bodies and we would hate to see some crazy and/or painful shit happen to them. We like to think that we have some control over our bodies even though that control is illusory. (don’t believe … More REVIEW – Antiviral (2012)

REVIEW – Honeymoon (2014)

October 14, 2015

After reading The Wolfman’s awesome list of Netflix horror picks, I decided to make a point of watching the two films that I hadn’t seen yet – Honeymoon and The Houses October Built. I may not trust him personally (why’s he always hiding his face?), but I do trust that guy’s film recs. I watched … More REVIEW – Honeymoon (2014)

No Real Danger is a blog of my ramblings on the films that I watch/have watched/want to watch/etc. I will typically post (with irregular regularity) comma and parenthetical filled short-form entries. I plan to keep things positive, but I might grumble about something every once in a while. Horror is my “jam” but I may occasionally post about a non-horror movie. Similarly, I usually watch independent movies but not exclusively. Hell, I might even post about music. Who knows?
