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

Found a Case – poem

I found a case upon my step,   It came from who knows where.  I found a case upon my step,  To open I do not dare.  A line of red ran down its side.  A pool formed underneath.  Covered in crimson, this light blue case,  Home to more than suits this space.  I found a… Continue reading Found a Case – poem

THE BOOGEYMAN – 2023 review

There is something about the darkness that is as compelling as it is repulsive. Something primal and vibrant about the fact that in that empty space of black could be anything or nothing. It is the box of possibility both full and devoid of all things.  We fear the dark because it takes away what… Continue reading THE BOOGEYMAN – 2023 review

THE WHISPERING MAN – found footage review

Hello and here we are with another found footage film. Hooray! This time around we have a paranormal filmmaker with a serialized program online that inherits some things from his grandmother and among everything is a painting called The Whispering Man, cue the spooky music - DON'T CUE SPOOKY MUSIC, THIS IS FOUND FOOTAGE! The… Continue reading THE WHISPERING MAN – 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

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…

TERROR TRAIN 2 – review

Choo-Choo, all aboard the murder express! I guess.  Someone used that in a review, right? Tell me they did.  SOMEONE HAD TO HAVE.  Other than me, that is.  Maybe not.  So many folks try to be Clever Dans but just come off as snarky or mean. It isn’t even that it’s clever, it’s just, I… Continue reading TERROR TRAIN 2 – review

OUR TRIP TO BERRIBROOK – found footage review

I admit that I am a little surprised that the Lost In The Woods sub-sub-genre is still on fire but I do understand it. There’s something primal about it, about the idea of being in the middle of nowhere and being lost without any idea how to find your way back to safety. There’s a… Continue reading OUR TRIP TO BERRIBROOK – found footage review
