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
Since I liked co-directors Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’s Heretic, I decided to check out their earlier effort, Haunt. I’d read mixed things about it and knew it was about a haunted house, but that’s about it. Since I am watching as much horror as possible this month, I figured it’s a good time to … More Haunt (2019) – REVIEW
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
Jay Baruchel is perhaps best known as the affable friend to Seth Rogen in This is the End or the voice of Hiccup in How to Train Your Dragon. But did you know that he directed a horror film called Random Acts of Violence? He did! And it’s my 11th (of 31) film of this … More Random Acts of Violence (2019) – REVIEW
I thought for sure that I’d reviewed one of the entries into the V/H/S franchise before. I guess not. Well, not really. I did a microreview last October that essentially boiled down to “didn’t love it”. I’ve seen all eight of the main anthologies and both of the spin-off films. The only real review I’ve … More V/H/S/Halloween (2025) – REVIEW
