I filled my Friday night with vampires and juke joints by checking out Sinners. It did not disappoint! I managed to avoid all the trailers for the film. I knew Ryan Coogler directed it, Michael B. Jordan was starring in it, and there were vampires involved somehow. That’s all I had to go on, and […]

I’m always excited about the new batch of movies that Shudder releases every month. I am determined to stream their entire catalog, but I often find myself playing catch-up. From the golden oldies to the freshest horror flicks, I have plenty to stream. I began my week with The Black Cat (1984) and The City

The Ugly Stepsister was a pleasant surprise! I didn’t initially have it on my schedule, but when a horror homie (Angel Melanson) vouched for it, I knew I couldn’t miss it. So, I snagged a spot in the theater with other friends who had heard the good word about the film and buckled in for

Supernatural horror is my bag! I was super excited to lay my eyes on Rosario at the Overlook Film Festival during one of the late-night slots. The film follows a successful woman, Rosario (Emeraude Toubia), who has to spend the night watching her grandmother’s corpse until the ambulance comes. Of course, things get supernatural as

After crossing the Atlantic ocean with his wife and two sons, Abraham Van Helsing has finally settled down… or has he? Let me point this out; has anyone ever considered fact-checking Van Helsing? Did anyone ask him for true vampiric evidence? Maybe not. Natasha Kermani (Lucky, V/H/S/85) helms the feature film adaptation of Abraham’s Boys;
I only needed to read a short synopsis of The Rule of Jenny Pen and settled in—also, John Lithgow and Geoffrey Rush. Today, hit play on Shudder. A curmudgeon quits his day job after a stroke and lands himself in assisted nursing care. Unfortunately, it only gets worse once he’s caught the attention of the resident

825 Forest Road strives to be a compelling ghost story. Unfortunately, we are left with unanswered questions and a story that may have relied too heavily on jump scares. Don’t get me wrong, 825 Forest Road definitely has its moments where I started to get sucked into the story. However, the cheap tricks quickly took me

Fucktoys (stylized as F*cktoys) is a clever, sexy, pop-punk, grindhouse adventure. Writer and director Annapurna Sriram crafts a raucous fantasy world that is unafraid to play in its smutty little sandbox. It is one of those surprise festival darlings that reminds jaded filmgoers why we find magic in celluloid. The film finds AP (Sriram) discovering

Is this a safe space where I can admit I am not a Star Wars girl? If so, I would like to explain why Daisy Ridley (Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens) was the main reason I was excited to see We Bury the Dead. I have many friends who sang Ridley’s praises

David Yarovesky drew me in with this poster and trailer alone. Reading the names of Bill Skarsgård, Sir Anthony Hopkins, and producer Sam Raimi, I was excited to watch Locked. A stolen car is an excellent location for this creative thriller. How and why? Is this a personal revenge tale or a sick Collector-like psycho
