“Will the found footage fad ever go away?” I asked myself that several times during Mark Netter’s Nightmare Code. Considering that the Paranomal Activity series thankfully...
I hate giving advice, sometimes. Not because I dislike people or find their problems trivial. It’s more along the lines of not knowing what to say,...
I could tell more than a few stories about my hometown of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Some good, some not-so-good, some laughably bad. Regardless, unless you like...
Neil Marshall’s Dog Soldiers was a stroke of genius when it was released. Taking a group of British soldiers holed up in a remote house in...
For all the crap I give found footage films (and many indie films, for that matter), there are some that manage to skirt the pitfalls that...
Admittedly, I’ve never seen the appeal of tattoos. That said, living in the part of Toronto known as The Annex for the past four years has...
I’ve never been a fan of reality television. Even when Survivor premiered all those years ago, I thought that the whole thing screamed of desperation. Speaking...
It’s been a while since Bigfoot lurched across my screen. In fact, the last film that I’d seen involving a killer Sasquatch was the very fun...
Looking at the cover art for Chad Archibald’s The Drownsman, I can’t help but recall the scene in A Nightmare On Elm Street where Nancy is...
Leave it to indie filmmakers to come up with some wacky ideas that Hollywood seems to lack. Whereas we get a Dracula origin story in Dracula...
The list of films that are both terrifying and tell a great story at the same time is admittedly pretty short. And if you’ve been paying...
Witchcraft and high school girls is one of those cliches that pops up every now and then in films, the most notable being Andrew Fleming’s The...
Like many indigenous peoples, New Zealand’s Maori don’t receive a lot of attention internationally. Toa Frasier looked to change that with his 2014 film The Dead...
Shockingly for some, unsurprising for others, reality TV is still going. Thankfully, it’s not all Big Brother-esque shows (since that would be aggravating to practically everyone)....
One time when I was a kid in elementary school, some of the girls brought a Ouija board to class and spent a couple of recesses...
I’ll be honest when I say that prior to the Blu-Ray coming in the mail, I had never given much thought to Honeymoon. All I really...
I know that I’m late to the party for some of you, but sometimes I wonder about the stuff I get to review. For example: The...
Generally, when you think of Stephen King’s made-for-TV movies, you think of It or The Stand, two of his better-known TV movie adaptations. Yeah, he’s had...
I pride myself on trying to be honest with you folks. That said, I had spent far too much time trying to figure out just what...
Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: a trio of documentarians set out to discover what was initially thought to be a legend, end up...
Amish horror. Not something you think of very much. It’s also not something many directors do, either. Sure, Wes Craven did Deadly Blessing, but those weren’t...
So Guillermo del Toro is a one cool dude. Fans of horror know this. The guy seriously loves the genre, particularly vampires. Anyone who’s seen Blade...
After being wowed by The Possession of Michael King, I was on a bit of an upswing when it came to demonic possession films. Sure, there...
