FILM REVIEW: SHHHH
(Editors note: I couldn’t find many stills for the film so I Googled “Assholes In Movie Theaters” and the images that came up are most certainly of the kind of assholes in movie theaters that would/should die in this film.) Apologies in advanced for the hacky box art one-liner,
FILM REVIEW: ELIZABETH HARVEST
Nothing can exist without its opposite. You can’t have love without hate, reality without fantasy and especially creation without destruction.

FILM REVIEW: LIFECHANGER (Fantasia Film Festival 2018)
Fantasia Film Festival has come to an end, it was a wild ride and I’m already looking forward to next year. The last film I’m reviewing from Fantasia actually premiered closer to the beginning of the fest, but it is one that I had to chew on for a while
FILM REVIEW: SMALL GAUGE TRAUMA (FANTASIA 2018)
As the 2018 Fantasia International Film Festival comes to a close, it certainly brought us all manner of genre treats. As is the case with most film festivals, the shorts program is often the strongest, and fastest selling ticket in town. Few fests do the shorts programs as much justice

Film Review: ROKUROKU: THE PROMISE OF THE WITCH (Fantasia Film Festival 2018)
Fantasia Film Fest has been delivering the weird and wonderful as well as the scary this year. With a tonne of Japanese content this year I couldn’t pass up the chance to see at least one film from the country. What made me choose ROKUROKU: THE PROMISE OF THE WITCH
Blue My Mind (Fantasia 2018)
Many fantasy and horror-fantasy film deal with monstrous changes as an allegory for female puberty. Think of films such as GINGER SNAPS, JENNIFER’S BODY and the more recent RAW and it is clear that a sexual awakening as a young woman can be monstrous. The newest films to tackle this
