It’s been said a lot, but 2022 was an insane year for horror. Picking a top 10 felt futile, but I couldn’t help but join in. With big name directors, massive franchises, and explosive new indie movies it felt like I was finding a new gem every week. I didn’t fret too much over theContinue reading “Top Ten Horror Movies of 2022”

Everything Everywhere All at Once Review
In 2016, I walked out of Swiss Army Man with an odd but profound sense of optimism. Fueled by a 15-year loyalty to Daniel Radcliffe and a desire to see what the “farting boner corpse” movie was all about, I bought a single ticket to see an early NYC screening and sat near the frontContinue reading “Everything Everywhere All at Once Review”

An October without a horror film fest would be no October at all, so shoutout to the supergroup of fest organizers who came together to give us Nightstream Fest! I opted for the 5-movie badge, pre-ordering a few right off the bat and leaving a few slots open to decide on later. First up, toContinue reading “Nightstream Fest Review!”
The Babysitter: Killer Queen – Movie 5 in 31 Days of Horror
Thanks, I hate it. I enjoyed the The Babysitter when it came out. Watching that movie, I felt like “wow, I would definitely give my soul for Samara Weaving’s Bee.” She was funny, she was charming, she was cool. This movie…was none of those things. I watched the original with my sister, so we syncedContinue reading “The Babysitter: Killer Queen – Movie 5 in 31 Days of Horror”
Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Bag O’ Bones – A Spooky Treat that Burned my Insides
Did Flamin’ Hot Cheetos get hotter or did I just get older? Anyways, I couldn’t resist the Halloween-themed shapes so I absolutely used this as an excuse to buy Cheetos. Ah, they look like normal Cheetos on the bag. A nice orange color. But inside?? That is some toxic-looking shit, and it was definitely hot.Continue reading “Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Bag O’ Bones – A Spooky Treat that Burned my Insides”

Man do I love this movie. There’s not much I can say that hasn’t already been said, so let’s just take a look at the Academy Award-winning practical effects and gush over them! Spoilers follow. The werewolf attack at the beginning is already good and bloody, setting the stage for what’s to come. I alwaysContinue reading “An American Werewolf in London – Movie 4 in 31 Days of Horror”
Vampyr (1932) – Movie 3 in 31 Days of Horror
All atmosphere and moody lighting, Vampyr is a different sort of vampire movie. Less of the monster-movie vibe of a Universal horror, and with more of an emphasis on the gothic setting and horror. I watched Criterion’s restoration of this, which is an “HD digital transfer of the original German-language version of the film fromContinue reading “Vampyr (1932) – Movie 3 in 31 Days of Horror”
