Werewolves
I love the idea of taking werewolves up a notch and giving us an army of dog soldiers on the attack. I’m not the first person to note it’s like The Purge with werewolves (Frank Grillo said it in an … Continue reading

Get Away (2024)
Get Away is a theatrically released Shudder film starring (and written by) Nick Frost. That’s interesting in that Nick Frost has a second 2024 Shudder film that I keep meaning to watch called Black Cab. So I guess he’s in … Continue reading

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

Die Alone
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
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
