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,…

I first got wind of Rita a few months ago, and ever since then, it’s been near the top of my to-watch list. In fact, I was dying to see this film before I knew anything about the plot. I heard it was made by the guy who directed and co-wrote the 2019 gem La…

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. If you know someone like this, lose that person’s number immediately. They’re no good…

How far would a mother go to save her children? Horror movies have been asking and answering that question for decades, but none have done it quite like Little Bites. Most films use the tried-and-true trope of a woman who turns into a monster to keep her kids safe and/or healthy (or just alive!), but…

If there’s one thing we horror fans love, it’s franchises. We’re always super excited to see the next installment of our favorite film series, but most of the time, these sequels don’t live up to the hype. In fact, they usually get worse and worse, so by the time part six or seven rolls around,…

If 2023’s No One Will Save You proved anything, it’s that there is a market for originality in how we tell our stories. The straight-to-Hulu release of the Kaitlin Dever-led alien abduction movie was positively received overall and supported the idea that a great story can transcend dialogue. Now, almost exactly a year later, Channel…

I love monsters, and I love films about grief. So naturally, if you put those two together, I’m all in, and that’s exactly what drew me to Daddy’s Head. While I thought the name sounded a bit silly, the plot synopsis was intriguing as hell. It instantly caught my attention, so I just had to…

I don’t know about you, but I think The Demon Disorder is a great name for a horror movie. It’s short and to the point, and the alliteration makes it roll off the tongue with an almost poetic ease. It immediately caught my attention the first time I heard it, and when I saw the…

I’m not going to lie, when I first heard about Out Come the Wolves, I immediately thought of Rancid’s seminal 1995 album with almost the exact same name. That’s just how my punk rock-saturated brain works, but as irrelevant as that connection is, it proved to be quite fortuitous. It piqued my interest, and when…

Oddity has been on my most-anticipated list ever since I first got wind of it. It was made by Damian McCarthy, the guy who burst onto the horror scene with the 2020 gem Caveat, and if you’ve seen that film, you know it’s one of the best and most inventive creepfests in recent memory. I…
