I’d like to start this review with a big thank you to Vinegar Syndrome. Not only do they share screener copies of their releases, but thanks to them, cult classic and strange films that are hard to find are preserved in the best quality available. Without their hard work, I …

A lot of us have watched possession movies like The Exorcist, which was perhaps the greatest demonic possession movie of all time. It’s universally loved and hated. Some think it’s perfect and others think it’s too real or scary. For me, my first demonic viewing was something I saw on …

It’s been five years since the unique film, Don’t Breathe, hit theaters, and it caused one of the most chilling public experiences for moviegoers. The entire premise of Don’t Breathe is that a band of robbers break into the home of a blind man, expecting an easy score. What they get …

What do you get when you mix the Ghost Adventures TV series and Evil Dead (1981)? A new horror film called Portal (2019) that was written by Peter Dukes (Escape Room 2017) and Dean Alioto (Shadowheart 2009, Quarries 2016), and directed by Dean Alioto (Lizzie Borden Had An Axe 2004). The …

Some people are blessed with having brothers and sisters, while others are happy to have no families at all. Whatever the case may be, you can live out family moments vicariously through characters in horror… that is until they’re killed off, as is usually the case. On that note, let’s …

I have a confession: Friday the 13th is my jam. I’ve loved it since I was a kid growing up in the 80’s and discovered the franchise at an all-too-young age. I can’t even begin to tell you how stoked I am that my favorite unofficial holiday is here! I also …

We’ve seen it before. Horror franchises run out of ideas, and what happens? Our beloved psychos and monsters get sent into space. It happened with Hellraiser. Part 4, Bloodlines, had Pinhead in space. The fourth Leprechaun film also shot for the Moon. The Prince of Darkness went out of this world in Dracula …

Although I love horror, it takes a lot to scare me. Psychological thrillers and films that mess with your head are typically the ones that affect me the most. That’s why I love Pyewacket (read my review here) so much. It’s definitely one my favorites thus far in 2018, and I …

Jason goes To Hell has always been the most ambitious of the Friday the 13th series. Whether you love it or hate it, its amount of enthusiasm is a fact. I happen to love the entry for how brave it is and its creativity, and I also find it to …
