In “1922”, a man murders his wife with the help of his son in order to keep her from selling their wealth of farmland. It’s a messy, bloody affair; the two hold her down as the father slashes clumsily and violently into her throat. It’s incredibly upsetting, and that’s...

Waking up for many people every day is a problem – but dying every night and then still having to wake up the next morning? Now that would be an issue for just about anyone. In Happy Death Day, this is exactly what happens. On her birthday, Tree (yes,...

eyThis is bound to trigger many people, and for that, I’m sorry. But I’ve got to say it regardless. The torch has been passed, and the definitive face of Pennywise comes in the shape of Bill Skarsgard. The 2017 It reboot has shattered all expectations – and those expectations were exceedingly...

Truth be told, I have a fondness for horror movies that actually seem quite familiar. I’m not one who is entirely against cliches; crass as it may sound, they are cliches for a reason. And that reason is there is something about them that keeps people coming back to...

At the start of a bright, shiny new year is a lot of hope. Hope for a better year than the last, but mostly hope for better entertainment in the year to come. 2016 didn’t disappoint us when it came to giving us good movies, so it stands to...
