I’m a big fan of the Strangers franchise. Like many horror fans, I love the original 2008 film, and I even like the sequel, The Strangers: Prey at Night. So when I first heard that a reboot trilogy was in the works, I felt a bit conflicted. On the one hand, I’m always up for…

If you’re a hardcore horror fan but you haven’t delved into Indonesian horror, you need to remedy that. Right now. Indonesia may not have the same reputation as its neighbors Japan and Korea, but the country has given us some of the best under-the-radar genre flicks of the past few years, like Satan’s Slaves, Impetigore,…

Bigfoot holds a special place in my heart. When I was a kid, I was fascinated by all things mysterious and paranormal, and cryptids were a big part of that. I read everything I could find about creatures like Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster, and while that obsession has since waned, I still find…
