  • The Devil’s Bath Offers a Heartbreaking Exploration of Depression

    When I first heard there was a movie called The Devil’s Bath, I was instantly intrigued. That name alone is enough to grab the interest of any self-respecting horror fan, but surprisingly, it’s not the most exciting thing about this film. The Devil’s Bath was directed by the duo behind Goodnight Mommy and The Lodge,…

  • The Watchers Rule the Night

    From the moment I first heard about The Watchers, it’s been one of my most anticipated movies of the year. Not only is it the feature directorial debut of M. Night Shyamalan’s daughter, but more importantly, I found the premise just about irresistible. It’s a folk horror monster mystery, and literally every part of that…

  • The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch: Beaming Up (S5E6)

    There are two quick things I want to bring up before getting into this week’s episode. Starting off, I do not have some whiplash-inducing drama within the world of Skinwalker Ranch or the larger scope of disclosure. A lot has happened in the two weeks since the previous episode, but honestly, it’s too much to…

  • Kill Your Lover Manifests a Toxic Relationship as a Deadly Monster

    In a genre as old as horror, it can seem like there’s nothing new under the sun. It’s easy to think that everything has been done before, so if you watch enough scary movies, you’ll eventually start seeing nothing but the same tired ideas recycled over and over again…right? Well, not quite. When I first…

  • Evil Does Not Exist is a Powerfully Existential Ecothriller

    Evil Does Not Exist is a hauntingly elegant movie that brings all of Ryusuke Hamaguchi’s incredible talents into focus. His films are often painfully beautiful tone poems about the lives of characters who feel as though they live beyond the confines of the screen. After watching one of his movies, I feel as though I…

  • Insane Like Me? Harbors a Nine-Year Vampire Vendetta

    I’ll watch just about anything with vampires. Whether it’s big theatrical releases like Abigail, international films like Let the Right One In, or indie gems like A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, if a movie features an undead bloodsucker, I’m usually willing to give it a shot. I just can’t get enough of vampires.…

  • Property Showcases the Worst in Human Nature

    I have to be honest, I’m not the biggest fan of home invasion horror. Sure, there are some standouts, like The Strangers (the original, not the recent remake) and Don’t Breathe, but by and large, these movies don’t do much for me. However, when I first heard about Property, I thought it had the potential…

  • If the Muppets Were Aliens, They’d Be Invaders from Proxima B

    I love to laugh. In particular, I love to laugh at things like aliens and monsters, so when I first got wind of Invaders from Proxima B, I was instantly intrigued. The trailer promised a hilarious sci-fi romp about an extraterrestrial who looks like he could be Oscar the Grouch’s long-lost brother, so I knew…

  • The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch: The Flash (S5E5) & A Chat With Jeremy McGowan

    If you read my coverage of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch Season 5 Episode 4: Bad Taste, you’re familiar with what is happening behind the scenes. After doing coverage last week, I realized I, too, may have been blinded by the cameras. While I did make it incredibly clear that I was in no way…

  • Cindy Kaza Discusses The Dead Files, Auras, Her Live Tour & More!

    I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with world-renowned psychic medium and television star Cindy Kaza. We discussed her live tour, her advice for those discovering that they have abilities, whether or not The Dead Files will be returning, auras and a lot more. If you’re interested in finding a tour date near you…
