Dreams of Halloween – Re-watching the Halloween Movie Series
I remember being a young and impressionable young horror fan and ADORING the HALLOWEEN series. From Carpenter’s first, to the unnecessary sequel that captured my mind because it happened RIGHT after the first, to the third that was trying to do its own thing, and even to part four which tried to reinvigorate the… Continue reading Dreams of Halloween – Re-watching the Halloween Movie Series

The Next Big Thing
I'm not sure how long ago it was but it's been at least three years now since I had the swell idea of hey, my friend Paul and I should start a publishing imprint. Like everything else I fool with, it starts with a wild idea with little thought beyond. My friend Paul and I… Continue reading The Next Big Thing
DANIEL ISN’T REAL – review
Horror has become a great place to examine and discuss a variety of topics such as mental health. Sure, you get a lot of dramas that talk about people’s declining mental health or issues with mental health, but you never quite get the same sort of desperate and scary look as you do with… Continue reading DANIEL ISN’T REAL – review

MANIAC – review
Can I just say right now that watching a movie this gnarly and sleazy in 4K is SO WEIRD! I am not really reviewing this as a sort of home release thing, but the film has never looked better. It’s still grimy, there’s tons of film grain, but it’s bright, it’s clear, and man… Continue reading MANIAC – review
He Knows You’re Alone – review
As a horror fan and past that a slasher film fan there’s nothing worse than a boring slasher. For me, I want them to be fun (or dark), a bit of a whodunnit with a mystery about WHO is killing or WHY they are doing it, and I wanna have a big and fun… Continue reading He Knows You’re Alone – review
Burn Your Idols
There’s something about humans that makes us need to have people to look up to and strive towards. It makes sense. From when we’re young through our entire lives we are looking for people that can show us the way. Looking for behaviors to pattern and actions to emulate. Life is confusing and trying… Continue reading Burn Your Idols

Warning Do Not Play – review
As someone who has been watching foreign horror since I was a teenager I have come to see and appreciate the trends that each region has. With Asian horror you get many tales of revenge and emotion come to boil after death as well as the idea of extremes. It was strange that Asian… Continue reading Warning Do Not Play – review
Project Power – review
To read the film geek room you’d think that ‘superhero movies’ are some great burden that has been holding film back. There are just so many of them. It’s all anyone makes. It’s all anyone talks about. Oh Lord Above, what about the OTHER movies? Whenever I read these screeds, I can’t decide whether… Continue reading Project Power – review
