I have been waiting for this film for over a year, and I managed to slip into a screening without a glimpse of the trailer. I saw a poster, Marlon Wayans, Tyriq Withers, and Monkeypaw Productions; that was enough for me. So I wasn’t sure what to expect. I have not seen many sports-horror films, […]

This year, Fantastic Fest featured several films with terrifying mother figures, like Crazy Old Lady, The Evil That Binds Us, A Woman Called Mother, and Fuck My Son. Dolly offers up another version of a mother from hell. While Dolly doesn’t reinvent the wheel with a masked killer stalking a couple during a pivotal moment

I love opportunities to watch international films, so I jumped at the chance to check out The Evil That Binds Us at Fantastic Fest. It’s beyond me why programming chose to place such a heavy movie during the 11:00 am slot, but chaos reigns. I didn’t know much about the film, except that it took

I saw a slasher on the schedule for Fantastic Fest 2025, and I made a beeline for it. I didn’t read much about the film, so I could go in as blind as possible: I was pleasantly surprised! 13 Days Till Summer follows Antek, Pauline, and her friends as they try to survive after someone

Fantasia Film Fest gave us a taste of the end of the world. Post-apocalyptic movies always catch my eye because horror has an extra layer of thrill when the dangers are tangible to the viewer. That’s why I made a beeline for The Well. I was filled with wonder at what horrors would have consumed

I rarely skip the chance to check out a Giallo film. I saw Italian, Giallo, and 1970s, and I was sold! So, I skipped the premise and dove into Pupi Avanti’s The House With Laughing Windows blindly. I was treated to an engaging mystery that would satisfy most Giallo fans, and a shocking reveal that
I Know What You Did Last Summer is a franchise I have nostalgia for, but, admittedly, it does not have the strongest story. It managed to squeeze out two sequels, with the third one putting the franchise to rest for 15 years. There was also the canceled 2021 I Know What You Did Last Summer

I hit Fantasia Film Fest running with a survival horror-comedy called Hold the Fort: my introduction to William Bagley’s work. The film follows new homeowners, Lucas (Chris Mayers) and Jenny (Haley Leary), who find themselves alongside their neighbors, on the offensive against a variety of monsters from hell. Hold the Fort wraps its unique plot

Australian horror often has a beautiful balance of realism and terror that cuts to the bone. No matter the subgenre (even horror-comedy), Australian films have a root in reality that makes their tone unique. Whether you’re looking for horror-comedy or death and dread, Australia has got you covered. You won’t find a lot of cheesy,

I got a chance to check out M3GAN 2.0 a few days early at a Regal Cinema! I enjoyed the first movie (preferring the unrated version) and thought that the concept was fun. M3GAN would have been perfectly fine as a one-off movie, so when the sequel was announced, I had questions. Which direction was
