Black Eyed Susan has been on my radar for a little while now. I first heard about this film when it debuted at Fantasia a few months ago, and it immediately caught my eye. It was billed as a hard-hitting takedown of male sexual abuse and exploitation of women, and if you’re familiar with my…

It will probably come as no surprise to read that the Mayhem Film Festival has become a highlight of my year. So on Thursday, October 17, I came back for what is the event’s twentieth edition. It’s a similar format to previous years, though with slightly fewer feature films in favor of an additional short…

I love mysteries. More specifically, I love horror mysteries, so when I first heard about Dead Mail, I was pretty intrigued. I didn’t know a ton about the film, but it seemed like the kind of edge-of-your-seat thriller that would keep me guessing the whole way through. And that was all I needed to know.…

My enthusiasm for Smile 2 has been an absolute roller coaster. As a fan of the original Smile, I got excited when I heard a sequel was in the works, but everything changed when the trailer came out. I thought it looked like a soulless rehash of the first film, and that put a huge…

There are two trains of thought when it comes to rage-based zombies. The first group will lump George A Romero’s The Crazies with the rest of his Dead series and tell you there are no differences between one or the other.

The third episode of Uzumaki is more focused than the previous two, but the cracks in the show’s structure are showing more. Thematically, this episode continues to expand on the ideas of generational conflict, leading to breakdowns in society, while ramping up the scale of the narrative. While episodes 1 and 2 contained overlapping narratives…

I love silly monster movies. Whether they feature tiny creatures like Critters and the recent Frankie Freako, giant monsters like the Showa-era Godzilla films, or a bit of both like the 2022 indie gem Crabs!, I can’t get enough of these movies. So naturally, when I heard about the new zombie kangaroo flick Rippy, I…

It’s not often that a language catches my attention. I watch movies from all over the world, so I don’t usually care what language a film is in. But An Taibhse (The Ghost) was different. This is the first horror movie shot completely in Irish, so it’s a milestone for the genre. It’s a must-watch…

Growing up, I always wanted to know what it was like to be back in the heyday of the slasher, you know? I’ve always wondered what it’d be like to witness a classic slasher evolve and become a global icon right before my very eyes. You know what? I think I finally have. Enter, Art…
