There is something wholly insidious about how humans have found ways to weaponize every last thing we rely on to reach out into the world. As technology has evolved, so too have abusers and stalkers, and with a strong online support system of like-minded sickos, it’s become a scary time for a lot of people.… Continue reading RATTER – found footage review

THE MOOR – movie review
There is something about the European moors that I am not sure Americans can fully understand. In its way, it’s like the American desert, a vast area where nothing human can really live (easily), which is unforgiving in its nature. What we can’t get is how vast and dangerous the moors are, in ways that… Continue reading THE MOOR – movie review
WE ARE THE MISSING – found footage review
I am not sure if it’s refreshing that, with people putting their work on YouTube and other video-sharing platforms that there are more opportunities to get films out or if it shows how cutthroat the industry as a whole has become. While some filmmakers are shooting films with no greater desire than to have their… Continue reading WE ARE THE MISSING – found footage review
Bring on the Witch
If there’s a movie I reference a lot it’s THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT a film that, for me, nailed so much of what I love about movies. With an innovative marketing plan that stretched the bounds of the film past the screen and a deceptively easy premise, the film deserves the legendary status it (sorta)… Continue reading Bring on the Witch
RORSCHACH – found footage review
Well, crap. Color me shocked here because I just watched one of the best found footage movies I have seen in a minute and it's on YouTube. It flew in under the radar, though I vaguely recognized the name of it but I had never seen it and it never makes the core lists of… Continue reading RORSCHACH – found footage review
Mister Howl – by T.W. Burgess – found footage book review
You read that right, a found footage book. Crazy. And brilliant. I had discovered this book via a post on a horror blog (I don’t want to venture a guess which and get it wrong) and headed over to the Kickstarter page and chipped in to help it along. The idea of a found footage… Continue reading Mister Howl – by T.W. Burgess – found footage book review
V/H/S ‘85 – found footage review
I have to say, there is something brilliant about the V/H/S brand and it’s that even when there’s an entry that’s a bit of a clunker - and only one or two have been outright dogs - they can win you back with the next one. It takes some new ideas, new directors (or returning),… Continue reading V/H/S ‘85 – found footage review
THE DARK TAPES – found footage movie review
I watch…a lot of found footage. You noticed that right? I mean, it’s not like, a surprise? It’s not SURPRISE, I AM A WEIRDO AND LOVE FOUND FOOTAGE…LIKE I AM LIVING IN 2000! I love the stuff. Unabashedly. POW. Saying that, I have seen slight variations on the same stories and themes and can guess… Continue reading THE DARK TAPES – found footage movie review

BURIAL GROUND – The Nights of Terror – review
Look, if you ever called BURIAL GROUND ‘The Nights of Terror’ then I got nothing for you. You just, man, you just…I got nothing. Nights of Terror. Oof. Anyway. I recently popped for the 4K import of this amazing monstrosity because I am INSANE. It’s so, so pretty for a movie where they didn’t do… Continue reading BURIAL GROUND – The Nights of Terror – review
The Exorcist – Believer – review
First things first, let’s address the demon in the room. To approach this movie on the same level you do THE EXORCIST isn’t fair. Let’s get that out there. Much like Green’s HALLOWEEN was not a 1:1 to the original. The original HALLOWEEN hit at the right time, with the right approach. It’s a masterwork… Continue reading The Exorcist – Believer – review
Strange, Weird, and Wonderful – off-the-beaten-path movies you should see
I have been consuming movies since I was a wee little monster and to say I have seen some weird movies, some wild movies, and some off-beat movies is to put it mildly. I have seen some stuff. In that spirit, I thought I’d recommend some off-the-beaten-path films I have seen over the years that… Continue reading Strange, Weird, and Wonderful – off-the-beaten-path movies you should see
