Elevation
It’s “Why 8000 feet? I have no idea” the movie. Just hand-wave that one away… maybe we’re in for a sequel! <eyes roll>. Elevation is a generic sci-fi creature feature in the vein of A Quiet Place, Arcadian, and a … Continue reading

Heretic is a tough one for me to review. It’s basically someone’s philosophical screed shaped awkwardly into a horror movie… and I like horror movies and I like philosophical movies. But this film did it poorly… but in that it … Continue reading
Apocalypse Z (The Beginning of the End) is a Prime Video zombie flick from Spain. It’s a pretty standard zombie outbreak film that offers very little new… but what it does, it does well enough to get a solid recommendation. … Continue reading

Die Alone is a great example of how a mediocre flick can saves itself in the third act. Its finale is so good, I kind of hate the movie for wasting so much time in the first two acts. How … Continue reading
Your Monster is a weird one. For one thing, it should be called My Monster <shakes tiny fist at uncaring universe>. But it’s also a horror/comedy… but no, it’s actually a horror/rom-com… even if I think the horror bit was … Continue reading
Bagman is a thread-bare premise draped lazily over alleged folklore from across time and cultures. Which was a bit of hubbaloo in the middle of a film that barely has a plot to begin with. It’s about a couple with … Continue reading
I fully expected to hate this film… because I haven’t liked ANY of the previous Hellboy movies. Yes, even Del Toro’s two and the much maligned 2019 David Harbour one. I thought I’d watch it half-jokingly for Halloween even though … Continue reading
