Do you ever remember things differently than maybe they happened? I mean, we all do it, right? With friendships. With love. With our heroic adventures where we’re the star. We all do it, exaggerating or blurring reality or not quite seeing a thing for how it was. I have that happen to me all… Continue reading THE ARRIVAL – movie review

Climax – Movie Review
Director Gaspar Noe is a talented filmmaker. Over his career he has set himself as an agent provocateur in film, always tackling violent, taboo, and controversial topics. He has an eye for style and a cold, cold heart that is willing to take on subjects that many others won’t, for good and for ill, and… Continue reading Climax – Movie Review
WW84 – AKA – WONDER WOMAN 84 Review
Ya know what, here’s my biggest critique – can Hollywood stop with the weirdo ‘hip’ names for their movies, like using a number for a letter, or initials, or just…this. It’s Wonder Woman 1984. OK? Let the fans call it WW84 but you just call it what it is. There. There’s my big fan… Continue reading WW84 – AKA – WONDER WOMAN 84 Review
The Movie Cavalcade – The Great, The Bad, The Fun
This has been a strange year, to say the very, very least. Strange, scary, hard, pick your descriptor and plug away. With the world shut down to various degrees it has meant I have had a lot more time to watch movies – hey man, I wrote enough books this year, gimme a break… Continue reading The Movie Cavalcade – The Great, The Bad, The Fun
Friday the 13th Series/Scream Factory Boxed Set Review
To say I was excited to see that FRIDAY THE 13th was getting a proper boxed set is a huge understatement. I have always loved the series and while there have been lots and lots and lots of releases there was never a comprehensive one with ALL of the movies together and with as… Continue reading Friday the 13th Series/Scream Factory Boxed Set Review
Dreams of Halloween – Watching the ‘Ween 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 – Watching the ‘Ween Series
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
The Hide – movie review
The Hide – review The thriller is a tricky genre. You see, in many ways it is a horror film but it’s just that the horror is based wholly in the real, wholly in the concrete. There is a sense of dread but not fear, but there is also a distinct sense of mystery because… Continue reading The Hide – movie review
11-11-11 Movie review
11-11-11 Movie review UGH! That is my review of this film. Three letters, one word, one feeling – UGH! Man alive, I tell you what, I dragged my girlfriend to a dumpy mall an hour and a half away from where we live to see what I thought would be a creepy little movie only… Continue reading 11-11-11 Movie review
Exit 33 – review
When you are younger it almost becomes second nature to envy and covet what other people have – success, love, perceived happiness, wealth, extravagance, friends, whatever – because you have not seen enough of the world or lived enough of life to know better. If you’re lucky, and wise, you generally get past that… Continue reading Exit 33 – review
