Unholy Ghosts!
“King Henry the Fifth! Thy ghost I invocate!”—Duke of Bedford, Shakespeare An awful great deal has been made in virtually all spiritual belief systems out of the immaterial; the ghosts and spirits. In modernity, the concept has essentially grown to a matter of opinion, belief and so forth, whereby it is regarded more as some abstract conception vaguely surrounding a tactile reality, which can never be gotten after, behind, or be proven in any reliable manner—following convention—and so is just a matter of personal taste, imagination, upbringing, or what have you.

Movie Review: 'Midsommar' Is the Best Movie of 2019
Midsommar absolutely wrecked me. Writer-director Ari Aster is a visionary artist, and his vision here is among the most disquieting and disturbing that this reviewer has seen since, no joke, Cannibal Holocaust. I have a controversial opinion of Cannibal Holocaust, I think it is rather brilliant. I have long thought of how amazing it would be to see a great director take on such challenging material. Ari Aster has done that, he’s taken highly subversive ideas and imagery, and applied a master's eye to them, and the result is a stunning work.

Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'The Sand' (2015)
All right, this movie got a bad wrap. The way people talk about it, I was expecting full blown Birdemic or even Troll 2. Okay, it was bad, but basically it was bad because the CGI was fucking shit. This is a shoe-stringer from an independent studio. I expect the kind of quality that I'd get out of Gravitas or Uncorked. AND, on the rare occasion those studios produce a gem.

Movie Review: 'Annabelle Comes Home' Relies on Too Many Jump Scares
Annabelle Comes Home is a unique dichotomy. This is arguably the best that The Conjuring franchise has delivered thus far in terms of tension and intentions and yet, it’s still not very good. Despite offering better characters and a tiny bit more rationale for why villainous ghosts and demons act as they do, Annabelle Comes Home still fails due to an over-reliance on jump scares and a lack of ambition in storytelling.

Crime of Passion
I have come up here, to Greenlake Park, to commit the most unspeakable of acts. I have brought my father's pistol and I am ready. For weeks on end, I have been suffering the most horrific phantasms. Such horrible nightmares: the legs of a woman, laying under the thin veil of a white dress. I have no idea why I am being punished by God in this way, that I am being temped by Satan in the form of a beautiful girl in my dreams. To even think I would commit such an act, it's unthinkable. That is why I felt it was necessary that I must do this. Tell my mother and father it is not their fault. Although they were the ones who have shunned me for going against the rightful behavior which they have ingrained into my mind. But it is not their fault, this is a war of sin I have been fighting within myself.

The Mystery of Sweetwater Lake
The moon shone high above Sweetwater Lake, the sky faded to dusk, and the frogs croaked in the bush. The lake was just behind an old house, a former plantation. The house belonged to Mr. and Mrs. Taylor. They were a young couple, married only a couple years. They were quite ordinary too: went to church on Sunday, went out to eat twice a week, headed to work on weekdays. There wasn't a single peculiarity about them.
