At long last, because we have all been demanding it, here is the horror movie version of Fantasy Island. For the sake of everyone under around 35 years old, an explanation may be in order. Fantasy Island was a popular tv show in the late 70s/early 80s. I was born in 84 and don’t […]
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: A group of scientists/soldiers (stop) are stuck in an underground/underwater/outer space facility (really, stop) when their equipment gets damaged (fucking stop) and they are hunted by a monster (good god, fucking stop!). It has been 41 years since Alien was released, but we still get Alien […]
If I had been writing reviews when Inception was released, I could just repost that review now with some nouns changed. Much like with Inception, Christopher Nolan has crafted a clever film with astounding visuals and concepts that are highbrow for a mega-budget Hollywood film. Also much like Inception, Tenet is a bit too far […]
I caught a special screening of Rob Zombie’s new movie 3 From Hell last night, special in the sense that it is only playing in theaters for three nights and it was the uncut, NC-17 version of the film. If you want to see it and haven’t done so already, you will have to […]
Rarely do I find myself in agreement with mainstream critics when it comes to horror films, but Us truly is one of the greatest and scariest horror films ever made. If you combine the sleazy grit of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre with the dark artistry of The Shining, you are getting close to how […]
I was curious about this film largely because of the vagueness of the marketing. I’ve been seeing trailers for this for quite some time now and I still had no idea what it was about as I headed into the theater. I knew it was a science fiction film starring Brad Pitt and that’s […]
Much like The Meg, I’m just amazed that this movie finally exists. Based on the manga (Japanese comic book), James Cameron bought the rights to make a Battle Angel film back in 1998, 20th Century Fox registered domain names for the film in 2000 and the movie was officially announced in 2003 with Cameron […]
I was really excited about this movie when it was first announced. You know why? The title. The bullshit misleading title. This is a sequel to Olympus Has Fallen and London Has Fallen and, when I heard the title Angel Has Fallen, I naturally assumed that this would be about Gerard Butler defending heaven […]
Have you ever watched Creature from the Black Lagoon and thought that it should be more pretentious and artsy? Well, here is The Shape of Water. Also, fuck you. Sally Hawkins stars as Elisa, a cleaning lady at a government facility in the early 1960s. The latest arrival at the facility is a […]
A couple of points to start: 1. It’s very odd that I’ve seen back-to-back evil doll movies with Child’s Play and now the new Annabelle. 2. After watching this, I realize that I was far too harsh on the new Child’s Play. If revealing that nothing, not a goddamn thing, happens in this movie […]
