My penultimate review from my remote coverage of the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival is for Clementina, a film from Argentina by Jimena Monteoliva.

I feel pretty lucky to have been given access to these fest films. So… you know – yay for me. Anyway, this is my … More House of the Disappeared (2017) – REVIEW

When I saw that Billy O’Brien had a film at Fantasia (International Film Fest) 2016, I was pretty excited. He’s shown that he’s creative and capable of bringing the scares before. You may remember my recent review of his film, The Hybrid. The TL;DR version is: I liked it. And I thought it had some … More I am Not a Serial Killer (2016) – REVIEW
