Ash coincidentally continues on with the theme of sci-fi at SXSW and made its debut. Starring Eiza González and Aaron Paul and directed by Flying Lotus, Ash has all the checkmarks to catch my attention. The movie centers around González’s character, Riya, waking up after a massacre on the planet of Ash. She finds her

“This is some Bourne Identity shit right here.” Another indie horror film is taking on the unknown of time and space. It is an appealing take when a bigger budget isn’t accessible to filmmakers; not worrying about the science of it all. But where Redux Redux shines is in character development and simplicity – even

The Infinite Husk is a sci-fi thriller which caught my attention immediately. Anyone who knows me knows I’m a sucker for sci-fi. The story itself is a beautiful one.

Thankfully, though, I read this movie’s description of a coke-fueled real estate agent getting herself into some trouble. Okay, I’m

Grafted leads with a disturbing picture, and it’s only an inkling of the best to come. It’s body horror at its finest. And at no point did I have any idea how it would end. The first 30 minutes had me leaning in, and after an hour, I was at attention, and I never knew

I added Tales From the Void to my TV show watchlist in October and picked the perfect time to hit play. I usually wait until I have some quality alone time to watch a whole season of a series. Thus, I added Screambox to my subscription services and quickly decided to binge all six episodes.

I’m definitely not the type to suggest watching a horror movie for fun. It’s not that I don’t appreciate the genre because I very much do. The practical and unpractical effects, dramatic over-the-top moments, story escalation, and enjoyable settings are all definitely up my alley. But, alas, ever since I became a mother almost 10
