Roll The Credits

Review: You Won’t Be Alone

Love comes in many forms but most wouldn't think of witches when asked. In the 19th century, we follow Nevena as she experiences life in many different genders and ages as a mute shapeshifter. A film that is both beautiful, sad, and tranquil all at the same time is a unique take on a witch story. The main issues in this are one, this is not a horror film even though it is billed as such, and two, this is a slow film that if you are expecting something it is not this film. Despite this, it is well-made and interesting. Just remember, no playthings.

Review: Halloween Ends

On the final night of October, we get ready to move on to the next month, but at the same time, we say goodbye to a saga of 20 years. In an impromptu episode, we discuss the most recent film in the Halloween series as we watch the story of Laurie and Michael finally end. While there are A LOT of opinions on this film(ours included) it is still something different with an idea that could have launched something. Whether you hate it or love it, the boogeyman dies tonight.

Found Footage Horror

Capturing those precious moments in time has always been a go-to way with a camcorder whether it be your baby's first steps or a witch stalking you in the woods. It has always been a unique way to scare. A subdivision of horror films that really gained popularity in 2010. Today we discuss this niche style that a lot of people either love or hate, but we want to know what you think as we charge the battery and wave the camera franticly while running, as we talk about found footage horror movies.

Review: Creep (2014)

Sometimes when you are down on your luck you need to do odd jobs, babysit, walk a few dogs, or maybe videotape for a murder.  We follow Aaron as he answers an ad to videotape a man for a day to showcase his identity before his inevitable death. What follows is a film that strives in uncomfortability and uses a found footage style to elevate it. This may not be your traditional found footage film but it definitely is a gem from earlier Netflix. All we know is, "death is coming for us all, but we don't wanna die".

To Show the Monster or Not?

Less is more when it comes to many things in this world but it's been a decisive vote for ages when it comes to what bumps in the night. On one hand, when you see all of it, you can take in the work and craftsmanship of it but on the other, it can be scarier to create it inside your own head. This is the question we ask, and as always we want your opinion on this as we peak through our fingers when it comes to whether or not we should see the monster  

Review: Society (1989)

Have you ever felt a little paranoid that your parents aren't actually your natural parents, and perhaps, a group of wealthy alien beings? Nope, I didn't think so but Billy sure did as he tried to uncover what they were up to. A film that definitely feels trapped in its time with a choppy plot and some scenes that feel like they go nowhere. On the other hand, it has some great body horror as well as practical effects to pull you back in. Love it or hate it, you'll make an excellent contribution to society 

Importance of Movie Monsters

Long since the dawn of movies, there have been action films, comedies, and things that go bump in the night. Monsters have been around since the beginning of films spanning different cultures and today we discuss them. As always we want to know what you think about this topic as we stitch together, drink some blood, and howl at the moon to the importance of movie monsters

Review: The Blackcoat’s Daughter

Have you ever tried praying to a demonic furnace? It might be the season to try it out. We follow three separate stories of Rose, Kat, and Joan all revolving around a private school while most kids are away on winter break. What follows is a slow-burn film that for a first-time viewing might seem a little scattered, however, if you really give yourself to it, it creates a tense and eerie feeling throughout the whole film that has a good payoff for paying attention. Once you check this out, you'll be asking "please don't go"

Themes In Horror

We talk a lot about themes in films and what they represent. However, when it comes to horror films it feels like they bring the movie to life a little more than any other genre. Today we break down why we think certain metaphors work better when it comes to the creepy-crawly side of films, so as always, we want to hear your thoughts on the subject as we check under our beds at night for themes of horror

You Are Not My Mother

Welcome to the first film for Spooky Scary Season and with that, we tackle a terrifying subject, families. Char is a teenager who takes care of her grandma and depressed mother, when her mother suddenly disappears for 24 hours something doesn't seem right about her. A slow burn with a payoff feeling like something A24 would produce. This film uses a wide range of cinematography, acting, and storytelling to bring an old fable new life. We might need to ask where it's been all this time, but it can't tell us...yet.
