UNKNOWN VISITOR – found footage review

Found Footage movie review Oh, man, security cameras are a boon for found footage films. As well as helping protect our homes from invaders and bigfeets they also provide a great vehicle for found footage movies. So many times we scream out why are you still filming during movies when any sane or normal person… Continue reading UNKNOWN VISITOR – found footage review

BAD KITTIES – found footage review

File Under - No, this isn't for real life. This is a movie. There ya go. OK, confession, this is not a movie about kitties. I know that may be a disappointment but, well, I feel like I need to be honest, here. I mean, there's like, a cat in the movie, but this isn't… Continue reading BAD KITTIES – found footage review

FOUND FOOTAGE – found footage review

A Found Footage film review. Oh, goody, a slashy-slashy found footage film to review. We've seen a few of these since the release of MAN BITES DOG and while they are all pretty disturbing in their way - how are they not disturbing when it's a POV movie about someone torturing and killing people, eh?… Continue reading FOUND FOOTAGE – found footage review

SHE WALKS THE WOODS – found footage review

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

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

THE DEEP HOUSE – review

There’s something about a well done haunted house film that just really taps into what makes horror so special and captivating for me. Take a normal day, normal people, and then insert them into a place that should be safe – a home. The home can be inhabited or abandoned, but either way it feels… Continue reading THE DEEP HOUSE – review

RISE OF THE SCARECROWS : Hell on Earth – Review

If there’s one thing that I can say I truly appreciate about experience and age it’s that the meanness of youth often falls away. Sure, sure, we’re still mean as old folks but with luck we gain the wisdom that other people shouldn’t have to take big old swigs of that meanness just because we… Continue reading RISE OF THE SCARECROWS : Hell on Earth – Review
