MISTER CREEP – found footage review
It's interesting when you see how many found footage films are about people making documentaries about something and getting in over their heads. Like, are that many people MAKING docs these days? I guess in this case it's 'true crime' and that's a big 'thing' lately so...maybe? I guess? For MR. CREEP I credit them… Continue reading MISTER CREEP – found footage review

They’re Dead, They’re All Messed Up
When it comes to horror it seems as if it has been dissected and bisected and pulled apart and examined under the brightest lights. Every movie that comes out is part of a subgenre or a subsubgenre. It falls into this category or is dropped into that bucket. When it comes to horror, we fans… Continue reading They’re Dead, They’re All Messed Up

Prudish fantasies full of sex and violence that are clumsily warning teens against the sins of flesh. At their highest… Continue reading Slashing

Over the years I stretched myself, letting myself not just be a 'horror… Continue reading Books For Everyone
THE DEATH OF APRIL – found footage review
I say it all the time but man alive do I love it when filmmakers tackle a style of found footage and keep to it. I love when they take that level of seriousness in hand and see it through. Much of the time this happens you end up seeing a more compelling film. Not… Continue reading THE DEATH OF APRIL – found footage review
THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT 2 – Book of Shadows – and such…
THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT 2 was sorta doomed from the outset, wasn’t it? It was the sequel to a film that had been a touchstone for indie horror and had lit up pop culture. It rekindled a dormant sub-sub genre and had birthed a thousand imitators and parodies. The trouble with success is that it… Continue reading THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT 2 – Book of Shadows – and such…
