It’s the end of the road. Throughout the previous seven episodes, we’ve dealt with evil paintings, witches, extraterrestrials, and lots of rats. What’s this final episode going to treat us with? The answer: birds. No, …

I have seen things that will make you shit your mind, Kemosabe. Imagine Peter Weller sitting at the head of a round table with long white hair, draped in a silk Japanese robe, snorting cocaine, …

Catherine Hardwicke wouldn’t be my first choice for directing an episode of an anthology horror show, especially considering the damage she wrought upon the vampire subgenre. Looking at her filmography, there’s nothing to indicate that …

We cannot let sympathy or altruism shield us from finding the truths of this world. Pickman’s Model is one of two H.P. Lovecraft adaptations coming this season on Cabinet of Curiosities, with Dreams in the …

True acceptance, harmony, peace, and divinity; all that stuff is a lie. We all just wanna be good-looking. We are first introduced to Stacey (Kate Micucci), awkwardly sway dancing to some generic jazz tune, wearing …

…This is one of those nightmare specials, the kind you never get to the bottom of. In this tertiary episode of Guillermo del Toro’s anthology show, we receive a terrifying answer to the age-old question: …

The second episode of Cabinet of Curiosities is a much sillier fare than its predecessor, and that’s not a bad thing. From its title, you can probably deduce the story’s main threats. Though naturally, the real …

Ah yes, God. Silent, strong type that loves to see us squirm with free will and other delusions. But what about his adversary, huh? What makes Guillermo del Toro such a fun director for me …

There’s an alternative universe where they never made a straight sequel to 1978’s Halloween. Instead, the franchise continued with John Carpenter’s original anthology concept. Every few years or so, we’d get another spooky story on …

How many times a month do you hold back from complaining? Or muddle through something you really don’t enjoy because speaking up or pushing back feels like more effort than just going with the flow …

A horror film with a political, or progressive bias, isn’t anything new, though according to many manbabies, this rigorous messaging is destroying modern horror cinema. So whenever a new Jordan Peele movie comes out, you’ll …

It’s been a boom time for 80s nostalgia over the last few years. Nowhere more so than in the horror genre. It gives you instantly recognizable visual cues to make the audience comfortable and saves …

Noa (Daisy Edgar-Jones) is trapped in the mundane loop of online dating. Any modern woman knows the procedure, the hours that are wasted on a guy who misrepresents himself and the occasional creep. The inane …

Hellbender is a family affair, in that it is written, directed, performed, costumed, edited, and probably catered almost entirely by the Adams Family. I’ll get that out of the way early because a lot of …

I’ve been a loyal apologist to the Texas Chainsaw Massacre franchise. I’ve even been compelled to write several retrospectives on the franchise, sharing my peculiar affection for the murderous on-screen antics of the Sawyer clan. …

Anne (Barbara Crampton) lives in Small Town, USA, and has been married to minister Jakob (Larry Fessenden) for 30 years. It’s clear in that time her life has shrunk so she’s gone from being a …

Coming off Fear Street Part One: 1994 — a nostalgic 90s-style teen slasher and a fabulously fun entry into the genre in its own right — I was concerned that the follow-up sequels in the trilogy …

If you know a thing or two about horror movies, you are probably aware that the heydays of Italian horror are long over. Instead of coming up with something original, directors Roberto de Feo (also …

Teen slasher flicks — we all know how they work. The kids are horny (unless you’re the bullied virgin), the night is dark and full of terrors, and the blood is fire engine red. Wash, …

Kids. Love ’em or hate ’em, we can all agree they’re emissaries of Satan sent to destroy the Earth, amirite? Or possibly vampires. Or something that isn’t right. At least that’s the case for young mother Laura …

Don’t come to His House expecting a by-the-numbers haunted house horror movie. While there are plenty of jump scares, Remi Weekes’ debut combines these effectively with a gripping story about grief and loss. His House …

I’ll admit it: I chose to review this movie merely because of its title. Now, I have done this before, and afterward regretted my choice (The Binding, for example). But this time, I was a …

Cadaver is Netflix’s latest post-apocalyptic horror film (the Netflix algorithm seems to love setting movies in a horrifically dystopian near-future) and is directed by Norwegian director Jarand Herdal. It stars Gitte Witt, Thomas Gullestad, Kingsford …

Dario Argento. Lamberto Bava. Lucio Fulci. We cannot deny it: the Italians have some big names when it comes to horror movies. And that is exactly the reason why I eagerly sat down to watch The …

The original The Babysitter was a surprisingly odd showdown between Cole (Judah Lewis) and his babysitter Bee (Samara Weaving)’s gang of satan worshipping teens. In The Babysitter: Killer Queen, two years later, Cole is a …
