Bunny Rabbit made its US debut at this year’s Chattanooga Film Fest and immediately burrowed its way into my psyche. This Australian post-climate collapse film left me feeling unsettled long after the credits rolled, and for all the right reasons. Independent filmmaking continues to be where some of the most exciting cinema is happening, and

Misper is a refreshing change of pace from the many true crime stories inundating us these days. Instead of following along as someone tries to solve the mystery, it focuses on those left behind to deal with the uncertainty of a loss. Misper pushes the idea further by centering on the missing person’s coworkers. It’s

I love it when women swerve into male-dominated lanes. That’s why I was so excited to catch Frankie, Maniac Woman at Salem Horror Fest. All I knew about the movie was that Frankie was different, in the violent kind of way. That was enough for me. Kat (my co-host) and I power walked down the

I had the opportunity to watch Hokum at Overlook Film Festival in a packed theater amongst friends. I had no idea what the movie was about except that Adam Scott was there and Damian McCarthy (Caveat, Oddity) was directing. Also, I enjoy haunted places and folk horror, so Hokum worked for me. It’s also easy

I decided to see Leviticus on whim at the Overlook Film Festival, and I’m happy that I did! I went into the movie completely blind and learned during the introduction of the movie that it was an Australian film. So, I expected realistic brutality. I also discovered that it starred Joe Bird from Talk to

If you know me, you know I love werewolves. It was obvious that I was going to see An American Werewolf in London (1981) on the big screen at Overlook Film Festival, even if it was just me in the crowd (it was a packed house, btw). In addition to seeing one of the most

I had the opportunity to check out Exit 8, directed by Genki Kawamura, at the Overlook Film Festival, and I was pleasantly surprised! Exit 8 is based on a video game released in 2023. I have watched the gameplay on YouTube, but I am too scared to play. While I hadn’t seen a trailer, I

As horror fans, we have all seen a shit ton of found footage. Yet, we know that in the right hands, basements become terrifying places to die. A shaky camera instills anxiety and forces us to lean in. There is magic in this subgenre (when it’s done correctly) that shuts up the most jaded millennial.

I had the opportunity to check out films from the Unnamed Footage Festival, which highlights found footage movies. While it’s a divisive subgenre, I love to watch found footage flicks! They are perfect to watch at 11:00 PM on a laptop in the dark with noise-cancelling headphones. That is exactly how I watched Frogman Returns

One of the reasons SXSW has been in our festival rotation for years is that it’s one of the few festivals we can all attend. Having all three editors on the ground is fun and also means we get to spend time together. However, this year’s selection of genre fair was so large that we
