My experience with feature-length animated horror is pretty limited. I’ve seen Akira (it counts), Wicked City, Monster House, Paranorman, and Coraline but that is it. Writing them out kind of makes it seem like a lot, but considering I’ve seen dozens of hundreds of horror movies (probably not quite thousands), that is a minuscule percentage. … More From Inside (2008) – REVIEW
I’m old. By the time Stine’s Fear Street series came out, I was deep into Stephen King. I was reading big boy horror with big boy scares (and even some sex scenes!). I didn’t have time for teen spookiness! My first real exposure to Stine was through my then girlfriend’s younger brother. He loved the … More R.L. Stine’s Pumpkinhead (2025) – REVIEW
Here’s another one that I knew nothing about before searching for my 28th film of 31 for this month. The description sounded promising and it stars established – and well-regarded – genre actor, Maika Monroe. That was enough to sell me on it, but then I learned that Chloe Okuna directed and co-wrote the film. … More Watcher (2022) – REVIEW
I first heard about Red Rooms on the r/Horror subreddit. Some folks there were praising the movie for how intense it is. And some folks in the comments didn’t like it. That’s typical for any Reddit thread of course. But the film kept coming up in the comments of “best of the year” and “most … More Red Rooms (2023) – 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
Here’s a new one – While looking for my 24th film of October 2025, my interest was piqued for this movie not because of the trailer or from hearing about it on social media (soda meesh), but from the cool looking poster. When I saw the thumbnail on Tubi, I thought maybe it was a … More Breathing In (2023) – REVIEW
My attention span was feeling pretty robust, so I chose the French language film, All the Gods in the Sky, as my 16th (of a projected 31) film of my October new-to-me horror movie at-home fest. I do love a lot of foreign language horror films, but I’m not always in the right frame of … More All the Gods in the Sky (2018) – REVIEW
Mickey Keating is a very competent indie horror director. I’ve seen all but one of his features (reviewed a couple too) and enjoyed them all. He has a good eye for setting tense scenes and his characters always feel authentic even when they are losing their minds. When choosing my 12th film for this year’s … More Offseason (2021) – REVIEW
Ted Geoghegan’s We Are Still Here is a great little family drama horror story. His Mohawk is an exciting period revenge story. I enjoyed both. When I first noticed Brooklyn 45 on Shudder, I didn’t even add it to my queue. I judged that idiomatic book by its cover. I thought that a séance ghost … More Brooklyn 45 (2023) – 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
