I didn’t catch Tim Miller’s Terminator: Dark Fate in theaters though having recently seen it I’m okay with that. As I discuss in my video, the greatest problem with the Terminator films is by my reckoning not that they all have the same story but they obviously have the same story. And that’s not unusual. […]
Diego Cohen’s Mark Of The Devil (La Marca Del Demonio) is one of those movies that wants to be Lovecraftian but isn’t (despite the numerous times various deities of his Cthulhu Mythos are mentioned) and is in fact a typical possession story.

I have to admit that I was expecting a lot from Robert Eggers’ The Lighthouse, the followup to 2015’s The Vvitch. And I also have to admit those expectations were, for the most part, dashed.

Which is an interesting observation to make because my video turned […]
I like this trailer. David Marmor’s 1Br reminds me vaguely of Michael Winner’s The Sentinel, a movie that not only stars a young Christopher Walken, but is a horror movie that I hold near and dear to my heart. The movie revolves around a woman who seems to be living alone for the first time […]
