[Review] 'Itsy Bitsy' spins a slow yarn carried by a frightening spider

8/29/2019

​In real life, I’m the kind of person that catches and releases spiders in my home instead of killing them. But when it comes to spiders in horror, fucking burn them because they are the arachnid spawn of the devil! A good spider-horror flick never fails to unnerve me, and Itsy Bitsy has the scariest spider of the year…

A message to studios: Make more animated horror films you cowards! I’ve believed we should be getting more animated horror for a long time, but To Your Last Death, which made its world premiere this past weekend at FrightFest 2019, is just another great example of why it needs to happen…

[Review] 'Hoax' is a flawed though loving tribute to 80s horror films

8/20/2019

Picture
Americans have a fascination with Bigfoot. Especially in the 70s, when there was an unprecedented output of hairy monster movies and novels. He’s our Loch Ness Monster, after all. And just as cryptids are hard to find, so are great Sasquatch movies. Aside from The Legend of Boggy Creek and I guess Harry in Harry and the Hendersons, these films rarely reach the status of “iconic”. The latest, Hoax, likely won’t hit that mark, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a good time…

[Review] 'Between the Darkness' is a dark coming of age fantasy with a monstrous twist

Man, families are fucked up, huh? I’m sure all of us, at one time or another, have thought this or that about how our family is “different” from others. What’s scary is, if you grew up with the right (wrong) people, you could have some pretty frightening beliefs. Between the Darkness imagines what would happen if those beliefs turned out to be right…

When it comes to so campy it’s good horror, there are all other films. And then there is The Velocipastor. Other films want to be The Velocipastor. Few manage to achieve its glory. Most die trying. And in the end, there is only one movie you will ever need about a priestly were-dinosaur…

[Review] 'Luz' hypnotizes with surrealist horror

“Is this seriously how you want to live your life?” I’ve been thinking about this opening line from Luz for days now, both in reference to the film, my own life, and the society around me. I mention it because that one line perfectly encapsulates both the confusing, contemplative nature of the film, and its reference to the power of language…

[Review] 'Nekrotronic' summons action-packed demon slaying with a video game aesthetic

8/7/2019

Sometimes, I sit around and think about how it blows that just about every video-game film adaptation is complete and utter trash (except for you, my precious Mortal Kombat). While not based on a videogame itself, some adaptations could learn a thing or two from the high-energy, demonic ass-kicking entertainment that is Nekrotronic…
