When you think of great horror villains, elderly people aren’t usually at the top of your list, but recent films like X and The Elderly have slowly started to change that perception. We’re beginning to realize that evil is unbound by age, so when I first heard about The Front Room, I was pretty intrigued.…

“Daylight come and me want to go”…see Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)! Another recommendation: see Beetlejuice Beetlejuice with as little prior knowledge as possible. You’ll spill your guts laughing. Underneath the film’s skin of laughs and the muscles of macabre, there’s a beating heart. Like the first film (the fact that I can even say, “first film,”…

Before diving into the murky, treasure-filled waters within the acres of Blind Frog Ranch, I just wanted to touch base on some Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch adjacent content. Even though I went pretty hard on Lue Elizondo in some of my Secret of Skinwalker Ranch coverage, I decided to buy his book Imminent. At…

Over the last couple of weeks, FrightFest movies have consumed my life. I’ve seen vampires, banshees, serial killers, and surrealness portrayed in ways that surprised and antagonized, and hopefully, you’ve been along for the ride as well. However, with all of the horror and big ideas being displayed on screen, I’m still a sucker for…

Netflix movies are notoriously hit or miss, and that’s being generous. The vast majority of them come and go without much buzz or fanfare (if any!), so I don’t usually pay much attention to them. But the new exorcism film The Deliverance is one of the few exceptions. Before it came out, I heard that…

Bogieville was one of the films I was really hyped up for at this year’s FrightFest. I love a good vampire movie. Who doesn’t? The preview offered a no-holds-barred fight between two factions of feuding undead creatures of the night. I don’t know if other people do this with movies, or maybe even different color…

AI has a long and storied cinematic history. From classics like 2001: A Space Odyssey and Blade Runner to modern gems like Upgrade and Ex Machina, it’s featured in some of the best genre films ever made. It’s pretty much become its own trope, and when done well, it can be amazing. So naturally, when…

When The Daemon was sent my way from one of my usual sources, it was a film that I almost immediately wanted to see. Both the description and the images included looked like they were my kind of jam. On top of that one of the leads, Sara Fletcher, was my first TV crush from…

I’ve been chomping at the bits to jump back onto the ranch with Duane and the boys. Something about Mystery at Blind Frog Ranch is incredibly addicting. Could it be the authenticity mentioned in my coverage of Season 1 Episode 1: What Lies Beneath? Or how about the true mystery of what lies beneath the…

I grew up watching old-school horror the way normal kids watch Disney movies. In fact, I’ve still never seen The Lion King, Pocahontas, or Beauty and the Beast in their entirety, but I recite the plots of films like Frankenstein, Psycho, and Creature from the Black Lagoon in my sleep. I just adore those black-and-white…
