Wow. I feel that is the most fitting word to use as the first word of this review after seeing Mom and Dad. Where do I begin? I’m so glad to see Nicolas Cage back in one of his crazy roles again. I’m tired of seeing him cast as these “normal” characters, and that is […]

Just a fan of horror telling it like it is.
Insidious: The Last Key (2018)
It’s hard to believe it’s been 8 years since the first Insidious movie was released, and even more surprising is the consistency of the sequels that followed, releasing almost every two years since. In the fourth film, we learn the history of Elise Rainier (yes, even more history than we learned in Insidious: Chapter 3), […]
The Snowman (2017)
Michael Fassbender plays detective Harry Hole, (possibly one of the most unfortunate names I’ve ever heard), who hunts a serial killer that is running around Norway, decapitating young women. I watched all of the trailers for this movie before it was released and I expected it was going to be more of a crime mystery […]
Jigsaw (2017)
7 years after what was intended to be the final installment in the “Saw” franchise, Saw 3D: The Final Chapter, fans were pleasantly surprised when “Jigsaw” was announced for release. Even though the finale of “The Final Chapter” seemed to bring everything in the story around full circle, I always felt like I needed more […]
Flatliners (2017)
Overcome with the guilt of crashing her car and killing her younger sister nine years ago, a young med student, (played by Ellen Page), creates an experiment with the intent of proving or disproving the afterlife. Teaming up with four other med students, they conduct their experiments, successfully, in the basement of their medical school. […]
Jeepers Creepers 3 (2017)
Although titled “Jeepers Creepers 3”, this film actually takes place in between the first and second films chronologically, making it a sequel to the original and a prequel to the sequel. I feel like movies like this should be subtitled rather than numbered. Some examples of subtitles that would fit this movie would be, “Jeepers […]
Franchise Focus – Friday the 13th
Although the date Friday the 13th had superstitious connotations long before this franchise was created, it has since become synonymous with arguably one of the most recognizable and iconic horror movie slashers to date. Nearly four decades after Friday the 13th first crossed the silver screen and there are talks of a new reboot of […]
Happy Death Day (2017)
This is my 100th movie review! Thank you to those who have stuck with me, and welcome to those who are just now joining me. It’s been a weird, rough, exciting, disturbing journey to get here and I hope the ride it just as unpredictable over the next 100 movie reviews. Some of you might […]
The Babysitter (2017)
A 12-year-old boy, Cole, is amorously infatuated with his teenage babysitter, Bee, because he’s a 12-year-old boy and because she’s wildly inappropriate around him. The plot set-up is very contrived and requires no mental dexterity, so if you’re looking for a movie to do anything but require you to sit and drool, this film isn’t […]
Amityville: The Awakening (2017)
We all know the story behind “The Amityville Horror” and we’ve all seen the many, many movies that followed the classic film from 1979. While most films have taken place in that same cinematic universe as the original, or have chosen to “reboot” the original, this film has decided to make itself a more unique […]
