Lisa Frankenstein (2024)
“I have The Cure…..” Written by Diablo Cody (Juno, Jennifer’s Body), helmed by director Zelda Williams (her feature-length debut) and featuring a cast loaded with talent, 2024’s Lisa Frankenstein has a lot going for it. Unfortunately, the writing and direction just don’t click for some reason, despite the best efforts of a very enjoyable cast.Continue reading “Lisa Frankenstein (2024)”
Truth Seekers (2020)
“How can I put a Smyle on your face?” With the one-two comedic punch of Simon Pegg and Nick Frost at the helm, 2020’s Truth Seekers combines supernatural horror, science fiction, and comedy in order to create a really enjoyable series. Written by Pegg, Frost, James Serafinowicz, and Nat Saunders, the series follows the adventuresContinue reading “Truth Seekers (2020)”
Cult Classic: Killer Workout (1987)
“She was so pretty…..” Aerobics were all the rage in the 1980s. Slasher films were insanely popular as well. 1987’s Killer Workout (also known as Aerobicide) fused them together in the hopes of raking in the big bucks. The result was a ho-hum slasher flick featuring a killer with a fondness for laundry pins, endlessContinue reading “Cult Classic: Killer Workout (1987)”
Dark Harvest (2023)
“To a violent world with me.” Loosely based upon the 2006 Norman Partridge novel of the same name, 2023’s Dark Harvest is a decent little thriller that blends stories such as The Lottery with supernatural horror like Night Of The Scarecrow and Pumpkinhead. It tells the story of a small Midwestern town wherein a sinisterContinue reading “Dark Harvest (2023)”
Totally Killer (2023)
“Remember, avoid the knife, keep your life.” Kiernan Shipka (Mad Men, Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina) heads up the time traveling whodunit Totally Killer. The 2023 slasher/sci-fi/dark comedy/mystery has a lot going on in it with two plots running parallel in the present and way back in 1987. In the film, Shipka plays Jamie Hughes, aContinue reading “Totally Killer (2023)”
Revenge Of The Slashers: The Prowler
“I want you to be my date, Rose.” Of all of the slashers on this list, the Prowler is probably the one most forgotten despite having some of the most brutal kills in cinematic history. The original film, which I reviewed here, fared poorly at the box office, but the gory kills that came courtesyContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: The Prowler”
Revenge Of The Slashers: Candyman
“Candyman, Candyman, Candyman, Candyman, Candy……” Say his name five times while looking in a mirror and you just might end up on the business end of a hook! Today’s post looks at one of the final 1990s slashers to arrive on the scene prior to the rise of the Scream franchise that changed slashers forever.Continue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: Candyman”
Revenge Of The Slashers: The Miner
“Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue, One Is Dead, And So Are YOU!” Although he doesn’t get as much attention as Jason, Michael, Freddy, or even Ghostface, the Miner from My Bloody Valentine (1981) and My Bloody Valentine 3D (2009) definitely deserves to be in this month’s Revenge Of The Slashers entries. He has aContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: The Miner”
Revenge Of The Slashers: Jason Voorhees
“Ki, ki, ki, ma, ma, ma…..” Could I really pass on the opportunity to post about Jason Voorhees, arguably the most famous slasher of all time, on Friday, October 13th????? Absolutely not. There’s really not much to say about the big guy that most horror fans don’t already know, but I’ll do my best. InsteadContinue reading “Revenge Of The Slashers: Jason Voorhees”
