This year’s Fantasia International Film Festival guests were able to take part in the world premier screening of The Dead Thing film. The film is helmed by Elric Kane (Kissy Kissy, Murmurs) who is the co-writer with Webb Wilcoxen (The Frontier). Apart from the men, it features a woman named Alex, who is addicted to […]
You can feel what’s going on in “Starve Acre” as soon as you press play. You know how when you are watching that film, they make it intolerably humid and wet? A characteristic of the film the more visible as the secrets get literally unburied as the film unfolds. Daniel Kokotajlo’s second feature is a
The Adams Family—a group of filmmakers led by father John Adams, mother Toby Poser, and daughter Lulu Adams—are some of the most fascinating horror filmmakers on the scene. Get thee to a streaming service and watch “The Deeper You Dig” as soon as possible—it’s one of the best horror films of the decade so far—and
Calvin Reeder’s “The A-Frame” is filled with well-articulated concepts yet to be developed into an effective piece of work. It is a film about the inevitability of death and embarrassing desires of running from it and how creatively, the narrative design turns towards terminal illness. But as the narrative starts exploring the Sci-Fi aspect, it
There is no beating around the bush here; writer/director Caroline Lindy exposes her accidentally yet therapeutically happy metatextual aspects in her film “Your Monster” – her first feature.

Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey: It has been more than four decades since audiences have been drawn to bloodbath films such as those featuring psychos with chainsaws, a lunatic in Halloween attire, a maniac wearing a hockey mask, an arsonist in a striped shirt and a fedora and finally, one whose face is pierced with S&M
Cult Killer is a movie about women who have been abused and decide to take justice into their own hands by tracking down and killing child rapists and gang rapists. Of course, there are people who will see this picture and know that this picture is not meant for the faint hearted. However, even if
There are bad movies, there are really bad movies, and there’s “Lumina,” a stunningly pitiful effort at every single level that makes one think that the writers are going for a deliberate model of The Room or Birdemic and playing for the audience only. What’s with some of the awful shot selection, the hair-brained plotting,
As if plunging into a lazy river of horrors was not enough, completing the experience is ‘Night Swim’ – the excuse your friends give every January to convince you to watch a horror movie with them produced by Blumhouse. “Night Swim” keeps the nets like ‘M3gan’ one calendar year ago. And while I do not
You could suppose that after a film like Lycan Colony, would be the last thing that director Rob Roy wants to do, is make another werewolf film. But you would be wrong, he’s back with American Werewolves, not in London or Paris, just American Werewolves. I suppose An American Werewolf in Pine Grove, PA just
