The monsters aren’t under your bed 2022’s Where The Scary Things Are is terrible. There’s really not much more to say about the film, but since I review movies on this blog, I’ll give it the ol’ college try. The film was written and directed by B. Harrison Smith, who gave us a host ofContinue reading “Where The Scary Things Are (2022)”

Classic Cinema: One Week (1920)
“Good luck. You’ll Need It!” Newlyweds (Buster Keaton and Sybil Seely) are gifted Lot 99, a Build-It-Yourself house, and a lot of chaos in 1920’s hilarious One Week. The silent short was Buster Keaton’s first independently released film and has a number of notable stunts and one rather racy scene that made censors of theContinue reading “Classic Cinema: One Week (1920)”
Wolvesbayne (2009)
“What’d you do to me?!?!?!?” It might be a TV movie released on the SyFy Channel, but 2009’s Wolvesbayne is actually a pretty decent flick. I recently watched it on Amazon Prime and I really enjoyed it. Sure, the CGI effects are a little bit hokey and the dialogue is rough at times, but there’sContinue reading “Wolvesbayne (2009)”
The Long Walk (2025)
“May God reward your bravery.” 2025’s The Long Walk, based upon the 1979 Stephen King novel of the same name, isn’t a bad film. It isn’t that good, either. Its premise is somewhat convoluted. A group of fifty boys, one from each state, is selected to participate in a walk that starts somewhere near theContinue reading “The Long Walk (2025)”
Rec (2007)
“I can’t slide down there with the camera.” Oh, but Pablo does manage to get down there with the camera, and upstairs backwards with the camera, and even gets chased by fast zombies with the camera in 2007’s much loved Rec, a Spanish found footage film starring Manuela Velasco, Pablo Rosso, and Ferran Terraza.

The Snow Demon (2026)
“Last year, winter brought him…..” Written by C.M. Wright and directed by Dominic Nutter, The Snow Demon (2026)is an above average creature feature that embraces practical effects, but falls short with its story. It stars Gina Smith, Belle Taylor, Francesca Weir, Jessie Vinning, and Ben Maddocks. It co-stars Renny Mendoza and Jenny Miller, with JamiykaContinue reading “The Snow Demon (2026)”

Throwback Thursday: River’s Edge (1986)
“Did the sight of this dead girl move you in any particular way?” River’s Edge is a brutal film to watch. It’s blunt, emotional and emotionless at the same time, and will make you feel uneasy. That’s what makes this film so brilliant and weird. The 1986 film focuses on the aftermath of the murderContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: River’s Edge (1986)”
Imaginary (2024)
“Never ever.” 2024’s Imaginary, directed by Jeff Wadlow (who also co-wrote the film with Greg Erb and Jason Oremland), could have been a much better film, it just wore out its welcome. The movie stars DeWanda Wise as Jessica, a young stepmother who is trying to connect with her new stepdaughters, and reconnect with herContinue reading “Imaginary (2024)”
