Okay, the first thing that I’ll admit is that the ending of the new Poltergeist trailer creeped me out just a bit. That being said, it revolves around a clown–similar to the original film–and everyone knows that clowns by their very nature are a tad creepy (without even trying). I don’t fear them, though they do […]
Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead‘s Spring is an apt trailer to post since just earlier this week I was writing about H.P. Lovecraft. The movie revolves around (Lou Taylor Pucci) who meets Louise (Nadia Hilker) in Italy, and falls madly in love. Sure, it’s weird that Evan can only see her at night, but what relationship […]
And in case you don’t get the reference… And you should know that I don’t take to paraphrasing Princess Leia lightly, though I think that it’s warranted in this particular case. Call Girl Of Cthulhu trailer The point being, I have just seen the trailer for Call Girl of Cthulhu and it looks to be in […]
Luis de la Madrid‘s 2005 ghost story The Nun (La Monja) isn’t a terrible movie by any stretch, though that’s not to imply that it’s particularly good, because it isn’t. Though the greater crime is that there are stirrings of greatness not too far below the surface, which are never given a chance to bloom into horrific […]
“”Animal” doesn’t break any new ground, but it is attractive to look at, and has some great pratical creature effects.” Anyone who’s read this blog knows that I don’t particularly enjoy features from The Asylum. For those unfamiliar with the company they produced movies like Sharknado, all those Mega Shark movies, as well as ZNation. My […]
I was reading Washington Post Express earlier today, when I saw a story that gave me pause: Slenderman (as opposed to Slender Man) stabbing suspects ruled competent to stand trial. Slenderman is fascinating because he’s one of the first–as far as I am aware–memes of the Internet Age to take on a life of its own. […]
Let’s be clear: William Malone’s (who also directed the very entertaining reboot of The House On Haunted Hill, among an extensive filmography) 1985 movie Creature is essentially a low-budget knock-off of Alien, down to the monster itself (when you could see it in its entirely that is, which wasn’t often). It’s also not a very good movie, though by no […]
Legendary Pictures can certainly use a hit, after the dismal performance of Black Hat and Seventh Son. That being said, I hope that Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak is the movie that does it for them. That being said, there are a few things riding against it. First off, it’s rated R, which means that […]
“Apparently, No One Told Director Tommy Wirkola That Sometimes Too Much Is Just Too Much.” Have you ever known a person that you enjoyed being around, despite that they always seem to try way too hard to be the center of attention? You may like them as an individual, but wish that they would just tone […]
Speak of the Devil, and he’ll come (or something to that effect) because the new Poltergeist trailer has dropped, and it’s a whole bunch of “Meh.” There’s a workman-like sheen to things, which may owe more to Paranormal Activity than the original movie, but if the trailer has shown me anything, it’s how unnecessary a remake it is. […]
