Mr. Crocket
This one caught me completely off guard. I’d never heard of this film. I saw the thumbnail, hit play, and went in completely blind. Less than two minutes later and I was clutching a first class ticket for the gore train straight to hell.
And what a fantastically wild and nasty ride, it was too.
Ghost Ship
When this movie came out I was working in a Hollywood Video. See kids, back in the day we used to have these stores…
Poltergeist (2015)
This is a tough watch for me. I’ve been putting it off for nearly a decade at this point. The original film came out the year I was born and was my first ever horror movie. I adore it and firmly believe that it still holds up really well against modern cinema. Toby Hooper was a legend.
This movie’s ineptitude is no one’s fault, except maybe whoever greenlit it. All the ingredients are in their own right fantastic...
V/H/S/Beyond
I know folks have strong opinions about the V/H/S series but I absolutely adore them. These movies proudly and openly wear their over-the-top madness on their sleeves. Love letters to grotesque splattering of ridiculous camp and humor worn like badges of honor.
The Haunting in Connecticut
I saw this years ago when it first came out. That was the year my youngest high schooler was born, if that says anything. I remember hating it at the time, but I think my critical brain is much less rigid than it was then. All ties to the Warren’s bullshit aside...
The Autopsy of Jane Doe
So when I say I’ve slept on this movie, I mean… a dead sleep. I’ll forever consider it one of the great tragedies of my life that I’ve looked at this flick for years and thought, I’ll get to it.
Skinamarink
You know what? I liked it. There's a great deal to be said for new experiences and this is definitely out there. Very Lynchian. Usually not being able to tell what's happening or being able to see anything in a movie is a negative thing, but this movie uses all of it's visual space in a way that works at your imagination.
The Empty Man
"We can't indict the cosmos."
Cocaine Bear
POSSIBLE SPOILERS!!!
It’s been a bit since I’ve posted but these drafts have been hanging about so I’m trying to get them out.
”I honestly can’t think of anything to compare it with.”
The Menu
No single film has ever made me want a cheeseburger more than this one.
