  • Fantasia 2025: Rage and Pain Under ‘The Serpent’s Skin’

    Having released six features since 2021, Alice Maio Mackay is quickly becoming one of the premier auteurs of cult shockers, changing the landscape of horror cinema. Mackayโ€™s punk rock filmmaking style knows no bounds. Throughout these last few years, she has created a universe of monsters, exploring the subgenre stylings of horror, playing with monsterdom,…

  • The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch: Swarm Weather (S6E8)

    Hello, fellow truth seekers! Iโ€™ll continue saying this. Sorry for the delay on this weekโ€™s article. It was uploaded to YouTube later than last weekโ€™s, AND I got a little slammed with work. But here we are! Thereโ€™s no new interesting information in the Ufology world, so weโ€™ll get right into this weekโ€™s episode to…

  • Fantasia 2025: Every Heavy Thing Ponders Future Tech In An Unevolved Society

    How the hell does anyone talk about a Mickey Reece film? The first film I saw from the director was Climate of the Hunter, which I caught during a film festival back in 2020. The film, about two aging women becoming increasingly cruel toward one another as they attempt to impress a man who might…

  • Fantasia 2025: ‘Noise’ is a Volatile Cacophony of Excessive Plot

    Is there anything worse than noisy neighbors? Iโ€™m sure there is, but first-time feature director Kim Soo-jin pushes the envelope in his Fantasia debut Noise (Noijeu) to suggest otherwise. The Korean-made Noise takes a page from many horror favorites in crafting a story about a rundown tenement building where some of the tenants have stayed…

  • Fantasia 2025: ‘The Bearded Girl’ is a Topsy-Turvy Fairytale for Anyone Who’s Ever Felt Like An Outcast

    One of my favorite things about the Fantasia International Film Festival is the depth of its programming. Thereโ€™s always unexpected treasures waiting to be found within the massive amount of films playing, and I think I just found one. Jody Wilson, a visual effects artist from Vancouver who has contributed to projects such as The…

  • I Know What You Did Last Summer Has a Point to Make

    Judgment comes for sinners in a brand new installment of I Know What You Did Last Summer. Can this film set a better precedent for a series that has been average at best? Set after the laughably horrendous I Still Know What You Did Last Summer, the newย I Know What You Did Last Summer wisely…

  • Fantasia 2025: ‘Cielo’ is a Dark Fable Brightened By Awe-Inspiring Cinematography and Storytelling

    Alberto Sciamma delivers one of the most indescribable experiences of Fantasiaโ€™s lineup, Cielo. The film is beautifully captured, from roaring landscapes of the Bolivian desert to colorfully inspired Church murals and dangerous cliff sides. The cinematography alone is cause to turn Alex Metcalfe into a sought-after name in his field. Cielo, which translates to Darling,…

  • Fantasia 2025: ‘Death Does Not Exist’ Says It Wants A Revolution

    Animation has long been one of my favorite film mediums. Great artists tell fantastic stories through colorful lenses of exaggerated colors in dazzling, surreal landscapes. When itโ€™s done well, itโ€™s magic, and when itโ€™s not so well, it remains imaginative. I knew Death Does Not Exist (La mort nโ€™existe pas) would be a challenging film.…

  • The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch: Lights Out (S6E7)

    Welcome back, fellow treasure hunters!
