I didn’t think much of the first Smile… called it a movie that borrowed from other better – and worse – movies while seeming like they thought they’d hit on something original. It wasn’t bad necessarily but it was so … Continue reading
Mr. Crocket has the smell of an old creepy pasta story… one that was already turned into a tv series called Channel Zero: Candle Cove. The idea of a half-remembered children’s tv show that was just a little off kilter … Continue reading
Well, I doubt anyone is gonna be watching this one who didn’t know what they were signing up for. If the axe-wielding killer clown without a dental plan doesn’t rat them out, the title Terrifier aught to get the point … Continue reading
