I close my 31 for 31 out with another highly rated horror film from what turned out to be a bumper crop this year. Tune on tomorrow to wrap up with Scott's take on yet another one.

The dead have been risen for decades at this point, and humanity has worse things to worry about now. Far from an ordinary zombie flick, The Bone Temple crackles with unpredictable energy.

Late-marathon horror delirium is setting in. Do I love this movie? Do I hate it? Do I like the way it lingers with me more than I enjoyed actually watching it? Read on as I try and sort out my feelings on this modern anthology set during horror's heyday.

Oh boy. An unfortunate example of how a big budget, A-list talent, ambitious story structure, and a commendable message can add up to far less than the sum of its parts.

Is the house taking a we dump? Ten-ish years ago I played the game for our Extra Life marathon; honestly, I've been thinking about it ever since. Making Until Dawn into a movie is possibly the scariest part.

Would you think its possible to make a good movie about a sexy corpse embroiled in generational trauma between fathers and sons? Turns out its possible to make a great movie on the topic.

We've all heard the fairy tale for the entirety of our lives, but what if the events had taken a slightly darker turn after the ball?

There's a lot under the surface of this horror mystery. Supernatural and natural dangers abound, and Adam Scott tries to navigate them in an unfamiliar, non-comedy setting.

The true horror of Buddy may just be reminding us of Barney's mid-90's reign of terror as the star of an inescapably popular children's program.

Horror movies and football, the two best things about October! Does Him inspire fear, like a Miles Garrett pass rush, or is it harder to watch than a primetime game between the Dolphins and the Titans?

The original Hellraiser universe stretched to an interminable ten entries, long after there was any meat left to pick off of the carcass. Could the 2022 reboot tap into any of the early film magic?

No horror film, or possibly any type of film, has been more popular and driven more online discourse this year than Obsession. Let's see if it is warranted or not. ("America is obsessed!" pun successfully dodged.)

Happy Halloween! What better way to celibrate than by reading a review of a hugely popular, notoriously violent film set on the holiday! Whether you know and love this one, or this review is the closest you'd ever dare get to experiencing it, I hope you'll enjoy the final entry in 2025's 31 Movies in 31 Days (which was really 16 movies, but what are you gonna do?) There is little doubt that the most buzzed about new horror franchise of the past decade has been the Terrifier

Let’s see what happens when you smash together two of the most formulaic movie genres into the same film. Did I end up with hearts in my eyes, or ‘X’s? All styles of film have their conventions and tropes. They are actually really helpful for storytelling, because they grant creators a form of shorthand so they don’t have to expend as much energy establishing the rules and boundaries of their worlds. They also establish expectations, which are a prerequisite if you want to ge

It is likely that this 2023 release flew under your radar, but there is a lot of charm to this version of a familiar story set on Halloween night, 1962. Greek mythology has provided us with so many of the story archetypes that we still recycle to this day. One of the most persistent, especially in modern pop culture, is the story of Theseus and the Minotaur. If you're unaware, it involves a tradition in which a set number of young people are sent into a labyrinth to do battle

I loved Talk To Me , but can the Philippou brothers follow it up with another unconventional three-word horror movie success? I might be outside the consensus opinion on this one. I spend a lot of time around here bemoaning the lack of originality and impact from a litany of horror flicks I review. If anything can be said about Bring Her Back , its that it is both original and impactful. I kind of think I hated it, though. What I am still trying to sort out is whether I hated

Director Fede Alvarez drags the Alien franchise back to its horror roots with the most frightening installment since the 1979 original. Fede Alvarez is probably the reason you are reading this review right now. I don't mean this specific review, although that is certainly accurate since it is a review of a movie he directed, but the reason that I am writing about horror movies online at all. I've chronicalled my post-high school lapse in horror fandom before, but suffice it t

Among the weapons that Director Zach Cregger wields in his latest effort are shocking violence, mystery, and experimentation. Are they...

Sinners may not be the scariest horror movie I watched this year, but it is confidently the best. Ryan Coogler's Sinners is about a lot...

I didn't expect the next Carrie , but I hoped for a reasonable facsimile of Prom Night II. Turns out I didn't even get a reasonable...
