They did what I thought was impossible: figure out how to carry on the Scream franchise without Sidney Prescott. And, in a shocking turn of events, I’m happy about it. Like most fans of the heavily self-aware franchise, I saw the film as close to premiere day as I could. Scream is one of those series that is near and dear to my heart, as I’m … Continue reading Scream VI (2023): A Bloody Hell of a Good Time
Talk about an underwhelming film! For those that are new here, here’s my review on the 2018 Halloween. Once again, I was really hoping to like this film. But, we are (again) presented with a film that relies on the viewer’s sense of nostalgia, rather than giving us a solid story to get behind. For the entire hour and forty five minute run time, Halloween Kills … Continue reading Halloween Kills (2021)
I went into this film with fairly low expectations and, honestly, I’m glad that I did because I ended up enjoying this film very much. The fact that Chris Rock wanted to move into the horror genre so badly that, when nobody would cast him in a horror film, he decided to pitch and produce his own is a power move, honestly. But, he proved … Continue reading Spiral: From the Book of Saw (2021)
Hello, hello, hello. Welcome to the New Year. I realize that the January is nearly over and I have not posted anything. But that is with good reason. I moved apartments! I moved into a bigger place that is closer to my work and has a washer and dryer IN-UNIT. I’m pretty psyched. Now, I’ve been trying to organize my writing space, and I’ve started … Continue reading Hobo with a Shotgun (2011): A Ridiculous B-Movie Masterpiece
Okay. I’m going to try really hard to look at this film from two different angles: as a remake and as a stand alone horror film. Either way, it’s not looking good. As a stand alone horror film, unrelated to the original series, it is mediocre, at best. I don’t know that I would even classify Child’s Play as a horror movie. I felt that … Continue reading Child’s Play (2019)
SPOILERS AHEAD I really wanted to like this film. I was so excited to see Laurie Strode finally face her demon and take him down. But, that wasn’t the film that we got. The film that we got had a sloppy script, characters who were only there for backstory, and overall, just really lazy writing. There were at least three different stories worth telling fully … Continue reading Halloween (2018) Review: Laurie Strode Deserves Better
Guys, I just watched The Belko Experiment and that shit messed me up. I’ve been wanting to see it since I saw the first preview for it years ago. Now, it wasn’t amazing by any means. Was it gory? Yes. Was it entertaining? Yes. Was it pretty much just Battle Royale in an office setting? Yes. The Belko Experiment was nothing special in terms of … Continue reading Quick Review: The Belko Experiment (2016)
