FOUND FOOTAGE SIGN! I guess I never knew there were so many Manly Man Nature shows out there, which, if you trust found footage movies, they're all over the place out there. Maybe they are, out there on YouTube and streaming platforms hoping to get picked up and big. Maybe. I dunno. There's plenty of… Continue reading SHE WALKS THE WOODS – found footage review

ATTACHED: PARANORMAL – found footage review
Having made a couple movies with essentially no budget - the budget for the first one was the cost of the camera and that stuff, and any loose odds and ends. It wasn't really a budget. I used a friend's kids for actors, and their friends, and then some friends of friends and we did… Continue reading ATTACHED: PARANORMAL – found footage review
TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE – 2022 – review
Can I tell you how weird it is to have a new TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE hit and I don't feel any buzz about it? Now, I get it, it's not the newest, hottest property, but it's still a legendary series with five legit fun/good entries into it. I know a lot of people hate the… Continue reading TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE – 2022 – review
VIDEO X – THE DWAYNE AND DARLA JEAN STORY – found footage review
File Under - No, this isn't for real life. This is a movie. There ya go. So here's me the other day, uncertain what to watch and figuring that I'll browse the horror offerings on Tubi. I have watched stuff on there a few times but have never really dug deep into the library. Yikes.… Continue reading VIDEO X – THE DWAYNE AND DARLA JEAN STORY – found footage review
LAST RADIO CALL – found footage review
Have I mentioned that I really love the faux-doc style of found footage? I did, right Right? Sure. Sure I did. I really love them. For me it is a better framing device because 1. we are used to the glut of 'true crime' documentaries that are out there and 2. it answers the WHO… Continue reading LAST RADIO CALL – found footage review
THE POSSESSION OF MICHAEL KING – found footage review
For me, one of the things I think fellow movie geeks miss when they turn their nose up to the found footage subgenre out of hand is that there are as many stories you can tell in that realm as there are with any other genre or subgenre. It's a form, and what the filmmakers… Continue reading THE POSSESSION OF MICHAEL KING – found footage review
THE THING INSIDE US – found footage movie review
Well, I wasn't GOING to review this movie because, as I stated in my THE WOODSMAN review I have no interest in slagging the hard work of someone, but, well, I can review the movie without slagging it so, here goes. Fingers crossed. THE THING INSIDE US is the story of a married couple trying… Continue reading THE THING INSIDE US – found footage movie review
THE WOODSMAN – found footage movie review
The thing I sort of love and hate about found footage films is that the difference between a good one and a bad one can be razor thin at times. It all comes down to a choice made by the filmmakers on which way to head things and which tact to take. I have always… Continue reading THE WOODSMAN – found footage movie review
THE ETERNALS – review
There is a portion of the geek press that has come to decide that Marvel movies, the MCU, are inherently bad. Perhaps it is ‘too much of a “good” thing’, or maybe it’s just that familiarity has bred contempt, but the fact is that once Marvel became so ubiquitous at the theater – and… Continue reading THE ETERNALS – review
BAD CANDY – review
Boy howdy do I love Halloween. I also love anthology films. For some reason anthologies and Halloween seem to go hand in hand lately. I kinda dig that. Alas, with the release of TRICK ‘R’ TREAT it set the bar for Halloween Anthos pretty high and it changed the game. I give complete credit… Continue reading BAD CANDY – review
GHOSTS OF CHERNOBYL – Found Footage Review
I will spare you the ‘I Love Found Footage Movies’ soliloquy because I sorta say that in every review I do of found footage movies. I love them, we get it. I just can’t say ‘no’. Even after all the terrible ones I watch, I still come back. And boy are there some terrible… Continue reading GHOSTS OF CHERNOBYL – Found Footage Review
COME TRUE – review
A couple of months ago I reviewed a film that was a sequel to a film I took far too much joy on torpedoing and in that sequel’s review I wanted to make it clear that I wasn’t the same person that wrote that first review. I am more than happy to talk mess on… Continue reading COME TRUE – review
CHILDREN SHOULDN’T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS – review and appreciation
I was still a kid when I discovered Children on one of our regional over the air channels that ran a double feature block of horror movies on Saturdays. The intro to the Thriller Double Feature mixed Led Zeppelin’s Whole Lotta Love (the instrumental weirdness in the middle of it) with images from several… Continue reading CHILDREN SHOULDN’T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS – review and appreciation
