Just a fan of horror telling it like it is.

13 Not-So-Horror-ble Movies of 2017
I know it seems like I spend a great deal of my time complaining about awful, poorly-directed/acted/written/budgeted/cast/executed horror movies, but believe it or not I do actually enjoy watching good horror movies. During my journey through an abyss of garbage, wading through the horror-ble movies, I have come across some pretty good ones, and some […]
Mother! (2017)
Jennifer Lawrence plays the quiet, soft-spoken half of a couple who’s only interested in spending time with the other half of the relationship – Javier Bardem, but that time is abruptly intruded upon by strangers who constantly show up unannounced at their home. Tension builds as Jennifer just wants the strangers to leave – as […]
Cult of Chucky (2017)

Well, it turns out there’s another story that goes back over a decade before the first movie to provide you with another origin story you didn’t even know you needed. Brace yourself for a story so […]
Friend Request (2017)
I suppose we’ve reached a generational milestone in horror when the scariest thing someone can think of is a cyber-bullying ghost reliant on its victim owning a Facebook page. Reminiscent of “The Ring” and that apparition’s reliance on its victims being in the near vicinity of a screen in order to carry out its killings, […]
The Sound (2017)
Rose McGowan stars as a paranormal debunker out to prove to the world that ghosts don’t exist. Armed with a laptop, a microphone, and her twitter account, she sets out to prove that people only hallucinate ghosts as a result of subsonic frequencies having adverse effects on their brain. This theory has landed her in […]
