FILM REVIEW: AFTER MIDNIGHT
When AFTER MIDNIGHT ends, you cannot help but start a conversation about it. The movie is an automatic spark that entices anyone to chat about its hidden point, and the clear intention of the very weird plot it carries to the end. I guarantee you that conversation will not end

The festival is lauded for creating a space for celebrating women and non-binary filmmakers’ unique contributions to the horror genre. No doubt its second run this October will once again be full
FILM REVIEW: TIME OF MOULTING (FELLWECHSELZEIT)-FINAL GIRLS BERLIN FILM FESTIVAL

FILM REVIEWS: THE BEST FILMS OF 2020
What a long strange trip it’s been…and I’m not talking about The Grateful Dead. I’m talking about the year 2020, or the year Covid-19 brought the entire planet to a screeching halt, or the great global dumpster fire…whichever you prefer. 2020 was in and of itself a horror movie in

FILM REVIEW: POSSESSOR: UNCUT (TELLURIDE HORROR SHOW 2020)
Whoever said horror films can’t be smart, obviously hasn’t seen Brandon Cronenbergs’ latest film POSSESSOR UNCUT. I was lucky enough to catch this artistic bloodfest as a part of Telluride Horror Show’s closing night. Telluride always brings the heat on the final day of the fest, and the 2020 Shelter-In-Place
Interview: Brandon Cronenberg
With a name like Cronenberg, the eyes of film fans would most assuredly be on you with keen anticipation. But (and not to be blasphemous) let’s forget about David for a minute. Despite constant questions about and comparisons to his father, Brandon Cronenberg continues to prove his talent as a
