Creep 2 is a Great Sequel that Leaves Open Ended Potential for a Bloodbath Finale
It isn’t easy to make a sequel to a great horror film. I was thrilled to learn that Creep had a sequel, and I finally watched it on Netflix a couple of months ago. I loved the new direction this film took!

Weapons Movie Review
After many years in the acting business, Zach Cregger has jumped into directing; his skills for the latter have been very potent. With the recent success of Barbarian, he continues to rise through the ranks of cinematic horror. Weapons is his latest effort, another strong showcase of creeping tension.

The Rain That Wouldn’t Stop
The rain had been falling for thirty-two days. At first, it was a drizzle, the kind that blurred the glass and made the streets smell like iron.

Midnight Conversations with Shadows
Midnight Conversations with Shadows The apartment was quiet—or at least, I thought it was. It began the first night I moved in. Boxes were scattered, the smell of fresh paint still hung in the air, and the city hummed softly outside the window. I was unpacking books when I heard it: a faint whisper, just beyond the corner of the room.

Creep is an Excellent Character Study of a Serial Killer Through the Use of Found Footage
I decided to give Creep a watch, when I heard about the hype surrounding this film by horror fans. I was impressed with the film, the story only followed two characters, and it was done brilliantly.

House of the Dead is the Worst Zombie Film Ever Made
When I first heard that there was a House of the Dead film, I was intrigued…in ‘knowing that this movie was going to suck way.’ I did not expect the movie to be this bad.

Hell Night
Hell Night is a bodacious 1981 horror-a-thon starring the tantalizin’ ta-tas of Linda “Your Mother Sucks Cocks in Hell” Blair. (Hey, we mean chickens, okay? CHICKENS!) Linda was last seen writhing around in a bed of pukey pea soup in The Exorcist, all the while flicking the bean with a crucifix (my, our mind is dirty this morning), and can’t be bothered to explain how she went from that undeniable classic to this, well, less-than-classic.

The Bird with the Crystal Plumage Features the Best Dario Argento Twist. Top Story - August 2025.
I recently decided to watch The Bird with the Crystal Plumage again, because I realized that the last time I saw this film was when I was 19 years old. I had forgotten so much of this film, except for the one thing that stayed with me: the twist.

Perfect Blue is a Scary Psychological Study of the Fear of Being a Celebrity
Perfect Blue is probably the best standalone anime that left me feeling disturbed and wondering what the hell I just watched. I also think that this anime delivers a perfect view with how being a celebrity can take a toll on anybody, leading to a psychological downfall of confusion and terror.

The Whip and the Body is a Strange and Creepy Love Story
The Whip and the Body is one of the strangest horror films I have ever seen. I had been wanting to watch this movie for a long time, and I finally got my chance last night while scrolling through Shudder, an app meant only for horror fans.

The Mirror in Room 313
Rain lashed against the cracked windows of Hillview Manor as Adeel pulled his jacket tighter, stepping through the front door. The wind howled behind him like a voice trying to say something just out of earshot. The lobby was dim, lit by a single bulb that buzzed faintly, casting long shadows across peeling wallpaper.
