August 02, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

Is it a horror movie or an action movie? It doesn't matter, Nic Cage turns in one of the best performances of his career.

July 19, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

The Blackening Review with Halle Kiefer

June 21, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

The Blackening is the ideal movie to go see on Juneteenth. This comedy horror movie is worth going to the theater for.

The Old Way Review

June 14, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

The Boogeyman (2023) Review with Jordyn Wilson

June 07, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

Can this Stephen King short story adaptation beat Shawshank Redemption? No probably not, but it was ok. It's definitely a good pg-13 horror movie that parents can share with their kids. Synopsis While Psychiatrist Will Harper (Chris Messina) and his two daughters Sadie (Sophie Thatcher) and Sawyer (Vivien Lyra Blair) are getting over the death of their wife/mother, he is visited by Lester Billings (David Dastmalchian), a disturbed patient that insists on talking about the death of his three...

Hammond (Richard Attenborough), the park owner ...

True Lies Review

May 24, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

The entire cast is firing on all cylinders in this underappreciated James Cameron film. In my opinion, this is where Schwarzenegger reached his prime. Synopsis True Lies tries the answer the question: what would happen if James Bond had to go home and explain himself to his wife? Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Harry Tasker, an elite American spy that travels the world preventing the apocalypse by fighting terrorists. He does all this unbeknownst to his wife Helen (Jamie Lee Curtis) and Daught...

Infinity Pool Review with Jay Medina from Crypt Creeper Horror Show

May 10, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

I don't know what is scarier, the unchecked power of the wealthy, the surprise reach-arounds, or the conspicuous lack of eyebrows. Synopsis An american couple James and Em Foster (Alexander Skarsgård and Cleopatra Coleman) take a resort vacation to the tropical island of La Tolqa to rekindle their relationship and to break James out of writers block.

Green Room Review

April 19, 2023 07:15 - 5 MB

The Final Girls Review & Emily Hagins Interview

April 05, 2023 08:00 - 1 hour - 81.5 MB

This meta comedy horror film might have slipped past you, but if you've run through all the others, this one is probably worth a watch.

Cocaine Bear Review

March 22, 2023 08:00 - 5 MB

Cocaine Bear never forgets his lines. Synopsis Cocaine Bear is loosely based on a true story of a bear that finds and consumes cocaine air dropped by a cocaine smuggler in 1985. In this movie, instead of dying immediately, it does what everyone imagines in their head when they hear the words “Cocaine Bear”. It goes on an unhinged coked up rampage across a state park.  Along the way, Cocaine Bear’s, or as his friends call him, Pablo Escobear, crosses paths with drug dealers, thugs, rangers,...

The Descent Review & Coltan Scrivner Interview

February 22, 2023 09:00 - 5 MB

The Descent is more than a decent movie, it's phenomenal. It doesn't play it safe by making just a straight ahead monster movie, it delves into many different kinds of phobias along the way. Synopsis The Descent starts out similar to my favorite porn, with a team of international women out in the woods. They go caving in an uncharted cave system in the Appalachians. Quickly their expedition goes sideways when a cave in happens and they are stuck in the caves, short on supplies. The film qui...

Let the Right One In (2008) Review

February 08, 2023 09:00 - 5 MB

If you are making the choice between Let the Right One In and Let Me In, the former is the right one. This taut and moody vampire tale pushes the boundary for what's possible in the genre. Synopsis Let the Right One in is a new twist on the vampire tale, that asks, what if vampires were pedophiles? It’s about Oskar, a 12 year old Swedish boy that is relentlessly bullied while he deals with his parents separation. In the course of planning to be Sweden’s first school shooter, he meets Eli, ...

Are you ready for our take on the biggest scam horror movie of 2023? We break down this low effort film with a low effort episode of horror movie talk. We hope Sharon, Lois, and Bram would be happy. Synopsis IMDB gives the following synopsis for Skinamarink: Two children wake up in the middle of the night to find their father is missing, and all the windows and doors in their home have vanished. That is only ½ true. There are still plenty of doors and windows, because that is were the came...

White Noise (2022) Review

January 11, 2023 09:00 - 5 MB

You know that SNL sketch were it was a trailer for a slasher movie directed by Wes Anderson? Yeah, well this was pretty close. Synopsis White Noise tells the story of a blended family led by Jack and Babette as they experience the joy and terror of academia, man-made disasters, and supermarkets. This film is categorized as a comedy/drama/horror, and if it’s one of those things, I guess it’s all of them.

December 28, 2022 09:00 - 5 MB

In the most accurate portrayal of a girls high school locker room, we are treated to the wonders and horrors of puberty.

In the first scene, we see Carrie experience her first menstruation in the...

Hatchet (2006) Review

December 21, 2022 09:00 - 5 MB

The comedy is without feeling. The violence is without warrant. The concept is as old as film. Monster bad - but monster also tragic - but get out of my swamp.

Titane Review

December 14, 2022 09:00 - 5 MB

Have you ever fallen in love with a car? Like really fallen in love with a car? Well take that lust and combine it with a horror movie, and you get Titane. Synopsis Titane is about a lot of things. I mean, what isn’t Titane about? It’s not quite a Tit, and it’s not quite an Ane, but maaaan…so to answer your question, I dunno. Just kidding, it’s about the worlds most famous female auto show twerker/serial killer getting pregnant from fucking a car, and posing as a grieving father’s long los...

Dog Soldiers Review

November 02, 2022 08:00 - 5 MB

Halloween Ends Review & James Jude Courtney Interview

October 19, 2022 08:00 - 5 MB

The long reign of terror is over. Or is it...? It is. Hopes were high after Halloween 2018, but each installment got progressively worse, until finally, Halloween Ends. Synopsis The town of Haddonfield, IL is on edge from the previous Halloween’s rampage from Michael Myers. Not in a way that gets them to be safer or demand justice, but mostly in a way that makes them irrationally blame Laurie Strode for all their problems. Corey, a good kid, ends up accidentally killing a little prick of a...
