  • Bloody Axe Wound Is a Late Entry for Horror-Comedy of the Year

    If you’d ever considered a world where slasher movies are real, have I got the film for you. A late 2024 entry, horror-comedy Bloody Axe Wound makes its way into theaters this weekend, and it’s a bloody good time worth the price of admission. The film takes place in the fictional location of Clover Falls,…

  • Nosferatu is a Beautifully Rendered Nightmare

    Robert Eggers movies are always frightening, even when they aren’t horror movies. They thrust viewers into a different and borderline alien world so convincingly, so intensely, that one can’t help but feel a little horrified by the experience. When The Northman puts the audience directly into the world of Norse mythology, the experience is so overwhelming that…

  • Ryan Kruger Updates Body-Melt Classic ‘Street Trash’

    If you’re at all interested in Fried Barry director Ryan Kruger’s Street Trash remake, it’s likely because you have fond memories of the 1987 J. Michael Muro body horror B-movie.

    Hello, fellow Ranchers! Our deepest apologies for our mysterious disappearance last week–it was out of our control.

  • The Man in the White Van: True-Crime Stalker Horror

    On March 18, 2021, I received my first update for The Man in the White Van. Legion M (Mandy, Archenemy) announced the project using an amalgamation of scenes from previously released films to form a riveting concept trailer with a creepy, slowed-down cover version of The Turtles’ “Happy Together,” stitching the edit together with a…

  • Exorcisms Get Monstrous in Effects Driven Deus Irae

    There is no shortage of religious horror films in the world these days, but anyone who once considered The Exorcist extreme could never have envisioned Pedro Cristiani’s monster hunter body-horror nightmare, Deus Irae. The title, which translates to “Wrath of God,” involves three former people of the cloth, a holy trinity if you will, of…

  • Practical Effects Marvel ‘Replicator’ Needs More Time to Cook

    If you’ve read any of my reviews on this site, then it’s pretty apparent I have a sweet spot for microbudget, b-grade, and independent film. Any film with practical effects and a halfway decent idea has pretty much locked me in for its runtime. Cranked Up Films has been pumping out some really cool titles…

  • Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch: The Skull (S4E4)
