A buddy Critical Overlord over on YouTube has unleashed his review of Scott Derrickson 's Black Phone 2 . Bad dreams haunt 15-year-old Gwen as she receives calls from the black phone and sees disturbing visions of three boys …
After a single viewing of Scream VI , here are my immediate thoughts and assessments regarding this "requel sequel." Minor spoilers... The film picks up about a year after the events of Scream (2022). We find ourselves…
I finally saw Happy Death Day 2U last night. I'm a pretty big fan of the first movie so I was very eager to see the sequel. Unlike people who saw the movie on opening night, I think I may have actually benefitted by wai…
I followed the production updates on the Halloween fan film The Spirit of Haddonfield pretty closely and I'm actually pretty upset with myself for not checking the film out as soon as it was live on YouTube. But here we a…
I was mildly excited to check out Summer of '84 , a slasher period piece that I had seen trailers and artwork for a while back. Now, one can argue that the filmmakers were trying to capitalize on the enormous success of …
Finally got around to seeing The Strangers: Prey at Night this past Thursday. And honestly, I'm surprised by how much I liked it. The tone takes an almost complete 180 from the first movie -- and really, that's wh…
The second season of Netflix's Slasher series was released the other day and I managed to catch up with it. I enjoyed season one for the most part, so I was excited to dig into the second season. Now, I hadn't seen…
Surely you've heard about the new horror film Happy Death Day by now...it's only slaughtering the box office competition at the moment (looking at you, Blade Runner 2049 ). Admittedly, I'm not the eager, trailer…
Well, today's the day... Cult of Chucky has hit DVD, Blu-ray and VOD. And guess what? I've seen it! I've had Cult pre-ordered for almost three months now, and I was super stoked to finally receive it. Now le…
I sat down yesterday and watched Leatherface , the prequel to 1974's The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and 2013's Texas Chainsaw 3D . I had heard a lot of mixed reactions for Leatherface on social media, mostly tipping t…
So I finally got out to see the 2017 adaptation of Stephen King's classic novel IT . Now, comparing the new film to the 1990 TV miniseries is like comparing apples to oranges. Yeah, it's the same source material, but…
Full disclosure: I've never even heard of this movie before yesterday. I just so happened to stumble across a review for it on another site. I didn't read the whole review, just skimmed it, and it was enough to push…
I was fortunate enough last night catch the early showing of Spider-Man: Homecoming . Although I would have preferred to see it in IMAX 3D, the standard screen worked just fine. As it was assumed and predicted, we don'…
I'm not going to write a full-blown review for the new Power Rangers , but I will give you some quick thoughts on the movie. The movie reminded me a lot of Chronicle , although none of the kids who get superpowers this…
So I saw Rings tonight. First thought: it was much better than The Ring Two , which, A: was just as I predicted, and B: which wasn't very hard to do in the first place. So where does it stack up compared to the 200…
I don't even know where to start. DEADPOOL was all that and a bag of chips. Seriously. It was so good. Very rarely does the marketing for a movie match the tone and feel to a T -- but DEADPOOL nailed it. All of it. …
Have you seen the movie KRISTY? If not, you're doing yourself a grave injustice. The movie actually came out in 2014 as a Lifetime Original Movie ( what?! ), but is now streaming on Netflix. I can best describe this mo…
Okay, so FOX's new horror-comedy SCREAM QUEENS premiered last night. Heard of it? I thought so. So you know the basic premise. A sorority on campus where horrible things just seem to happen. Enter Emma Roberts. She…
I was able to see Nathan Thomas Milliner's THE CONFESSION OF FRED KRUEGER at HorrorHound Weekend. In fact, I had to catch the encore screening Saturday night (the film debuted Friday). With a packed room, I was ready …
Peter Dukes' new film SWEET MADNESS was released this past weekend -- it's a short revolving around the twisted Harley Quinn...and her attempt to free herself, once and for all. The film kicks off with Harley holdin…
