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: NO ESCAPE
As the year 2020 trudges on in the midst of a global pandemic, it’s a miracle that new films are being released at all. Although it seems like a good time for VOD to be booming, it’s a weird time for distribution without the benefit of traditional film festivals to
FILM REVIEW: 4X4 (FANTASTIC FEST)
4×4 is the first FANTASTIC FEST film I have viewed and it sets the bar high. Extremely high. The premise is simple but the film itself is SO MUCH MORE than it’s logline. Getting robbed is the worst, and thieves are the scum of the earth. If you have ever
FILM REVIEW: GIRLS NIGHT ANTHOLOGY
French indie film maker David Teixeira has given fans of amateur horror his interpretation of the classic slasher with his film GIRLS NIGHT.

MUSIC: DREAMREAPER – GOOSEBUMPS THEME REMIX
Some would say that the 90’s were the heyday for horror. With the internet being born in 1991, 90’s kids are really the last generation that had to get their horror in hard copy. You got your latest edition of GOOSEBUMPS at the Scholastic Book Fair (maybe just me), you
Short Film Review: LEVEL

Film Review: CIRCUS KANE
Clowns scare me. Clowns, snakes, possessed dolls and tomatoes. They all frighten the crap out of me. So of course, when presented with a screener for CIRCUS KANE, I shrieked with delight! Why turn down the next opportunity to be scared out of my wits by killer clowns (NOT from
FILM REVIEW + VIDEO REVIEW: ANNABELLE: CREATION
ANNABELLE: CREATION is the prequel to ANNABELLE which chronologically is prior to the THE CONJURING franchise in the James Wan (SAW, INSIDIOUS) universe. The film starts with a bang and it’s surprisingly grim. We have just gotten the lay of the land in one of those signature shots that reveals
