The Sacrifice Game is a Shudder original Christmas horror home invasion/slasher type thing. It’s about a couple of girls and a teacher at a boarding school over Christmas… you might even call them Holdovers. On Christmas Eve, a gang of … Continue reading
Satanic Hispanics is an anthology horror film that’s a little uneven and yet ends so spectacularly, it’s worth watching just to get to its final ten minutes. Like many anthologies, it has a wrap-around/frame story and then its selection of … Continue reading
For as many movies as I watch, I’m shockingly ignorant of what’s actually being released ever since I stopped watching trailers and accidentally reading spoilers on news sites. So I went into Thanksgiving knowing it was a holiday-themed slasher and … Continue reading
A Christmas-themed slasher with a central gimmick that ultimately goes nowhere. This flick had potential but it largely just settled on being another generic slasher. The flick is about a slasher dressed like a Christmas tree angel (of sorts) and … Continue reading

Natty Knocks reminds me of a Goosebumps/RL Stine YA horror movie except it occasionally drop swear words, kills people, and gives backstory about prostitution. But that’s pretty par for the course for this unfocused and random movie. The flick is … Continue reading
To call Shaky Shivers a horror/comedy would be giving too much credit to the werewolf angle in this pic. It’s much too twee and corny to be anything but an over-broad comedy that irritated me. But I kind of respect … Continue reading
