Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Bingo Hell' (
You know, for a shoe stringer, this was pretty good. Kinda reminds me of Bubba Hotep in many ways, and not just the feel of the horror as slightly ridiculous, but also the way it was shot, and the general presentation of the story.

The Monster from the Ocean Floor (1954)
1954's Monster from the Ocean Floor, the first film produced by cinematic B-Movie mogul Roger Corman, features its titular monster at the very end o the picture, for all of about four minutes. Once we see the monster, it's a little anti-climatic, since it's essentially an Ed Wood rubber squid with a big, single, glowing Lovecraftian eye.

‘Barbarian’ Movie Review
Barbarian is the first horror film from writer/director Zach Cregger. When Tess (Georgina Campbell) finds out that the Airbnb she’s renting was double-booked, she begins to strike up a friendship with her new “roommate” Keith (Bill Skarsgård). But it turns out there’s something suspicious about this house, and the two of them may be in grave danger.

Ed Wood (1994)
Ed Wood is Tim Burton's biopic based (loosely) on the life of cult auteur shit director Edward D. Wood Jr, a man known as much for writing, producing, directing, and starring in the first pro-transvestite film ever made, the unfortunately execrable Glen or Glenda (1953), Bride of the Monster (1955), and the all-time Turkey Award Winning (at least, according to the Medved Brothers and their book, The Golden Turkey Awards) outer space ghoul grave robbing flying saucer flick, Plan Nine from Outer Space (1957), starring a pitiful reel of stock footage of a tragic Bela Lugosi, who had already died. The source material for this movie, jazz guitarist Rudolph Grey's book, Nightmare of Ecstacy: The Life and Art of Edward D. Wood Junior (Feral House, 1990) is, as John Waters notes, a "jaw-dropping" read. The movie is more of a send-up, satire, but has enough heartfelt schmaltz and good vibes to warm the heart of even the most jaded video viewer.

"Saloum" Review
Welcome to a land where rivers flow with revenge and everyone has a secret. In this west african crime thriller, director Jean Luc Herbulot explores the cultural issue of child soldiers in Africa, using the Sine-Saloum region of Senegal as the main backdrop. There are a number of political cultural references that went right over my head as I have no knowledge of the region. By the end of the film however, I was definitely following along and was able to share the emotional duress of the characters. When the twist is presented, the entire film shifts in tone and a little in genre(which I won’t describe, to avoid spoilers). This caught me a little off-guard–but again, in the end I was not only understanding, but in awe of the way the story was playing out. I can say with absolute confidence that I never knew what was going to happen next.

Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'The Current Occupant' (2020)
So, this wasn't really horror, and it's not usually my bag to do movies like this, but I've strayed from my lane before and I think it's appropriate to do that now. So, what do I call this? Cerebral Suspense, Cerebral Thriller? Something in that vein. It's a kin to Cerebral Horror, and it's the best kind that walks the line between madness and reality. On its face, we're given a dilemma, a sort of moment where we're asked to suspend disbelief or reject it entirely. The movie frequently asks the question, "Is it more likely that the President of the United States is being held captive in a mental facility, or that a crazy person in a mental facility thinks they're the President of the United States."

"Who Invited Them" Review
You just moved to the hills in a beautiful new home and life seems perfect, right? Until the dark secrets of the past make themselves known, that is. In this home invasion thriller, director Duncan Birmingham pits two young couples against each other in a night full of drugs, drinking, and tension as several different truths unfold. The plot twist isn’t revolutionary, but is still a fun ride. Although there were some unnecessary sub plot moments, this film kept me engaged until the end.
