To prepare for the release of A Quiet Place: Day One, I revisited the previous two films in the franchise. I often do that when a new sequel or prequel comes out, but this time, I got a bit more out of these rewatches than I was expecting. They reminded me that A Quiet Place…

Variety is the spice of life. Sure, I like straightforward horror movies like creature features and possession films as much as anyone, but occasionally I want something a bit weirder. I sometimes find myself craving a trip to the outer fringes of the genre, so when I first heard about The Blue Rose, I was…

When Ti West made X back in 2022, the film was a welcome return to the genre that put him on the map, but nobody expected it to turn into a franchise. However, as I’m sure you know, we all turned out to be completely wrong. West is now capping off the X trilogy with…

If you want to get me interested in a movie, your best bet might be to pitch it to me as a Lovecraftian mystery. I find that kind of horror irresistible, so when I first heard about Delicate Arch, I was instantly intrigued. The plot synopsis I received was pretty vague, but it teased that…

I love the A Quiet Place franchise. I think the first film is one of the best horror movies of the 2010s, and in my opinion, A Quiet Place Part II is one of the best genre sequels of all time. So naturally, A Quiet Place: Day One was one of my most anticipated movies…

I went into Cold Blows the Wind the way I wish I could see every movie–almost completely blind. The plot synopsis and the trailer teased some vague, seemingly supernatural threats, but they didn’t reveal anything specific. I simply had no idea what I’d be in for with this film, and I found that uncertainty super…

You’d be hard-pressed to find a horror fan who’s all about made-for-TV movies. Hell, made-for-TV films don’t have a great reputation in any genre, but when they’re horror flicks, they face an additional hurdle. Unless they’re intended for a streaming service (an option that wasn’t around for most of cinematic history), they have to go…

I love horror anthologies. Whether it’s a classic like Creepshow or a newer gem like Southbound, I’m always up for watching one of these films. Sure, they’re usually more like cinematic fast food than masterpieces of complex storytelling, but that’s totally fine by me. I don’t mind trimming the fat and getting right to the…

If The Exorcism has completely caught you by surprise, don’t worry. It doesn’t mean you’re out of the loop. The marketing for this film has been just about non-existent, so I’m sure even a lot of hardcore genre fans didn’t realize it was coming out. But it’s in theaters now, and as a huge fan…

If there’s one thing I like more than a good vampire movie, it’s an unconventional film that deviates from the standard bloodsucking template. I can’t get enough of movies like Martin, Cronos, and Let’s Scare Jessica to Death, so it should come as no surprise that the name Humanist Vampire Seeking Consenting Suicidal Person was…
