If you don’t know who Sharon Tate is, you’re either a Millennial or you’ve been living under a rock. The Haunting of Sharon Tate (2019) explores the brutal murder of her and her friends by the Manson Family. Being the 50th anniversary of her death, I guess it’s appropriate that we remember her…the family? The…
OK, so I watched Mercy Black (2019), and as I watched, I was left unsure how I feel about it. It was another of those movies that started with a mediocre hook and subsequent flashbacks that weren’t much better. I had the distinct feeling that I was watching Slender Man under a different name, then…
Chinese, Japanese, Dirty Knees, Look at these. “Baby” Firefly I loved Rob Zombie’s 2003 House of 1000 Corpses, and this sequel kept me just as intrigued and delighted. After the police raid their homestead, Baby and Otis escape and wait for Captain Spaulding at the Kahiki Palms motel. The couple’s psychosis continues as they take…
Lately, I’ve had the luck of finding some excellent books about Fallen Angels, and Broken Revelations: Horsemen Rising reaches levels I didn’t expect.

I’m not sure which movie was the first to start the growing number of sensory thrillers, and I wonder as movie creators make more, why they seem to be stuck in the rut of a distinct formula. Like The Quiet Place and Bird Box, The Silence (2019) is another of those. After watching this film,…
I’m usually not a fan of metaphor horror or meaning of life horror but Await Further Instructions (2018) isn’t like those artsy things that try to make it subliminal or try to be sneaky about it; this one also has some good frights. This film is blatant about what it’s telling the viewer; there more…
The Hole in the Ground is the fourth horror movie I’ve seen that was released in 2019. I wasn’t sure what to expect from this one, and I think that’s why it made the 2019 list of movies I probably won’t watch. I’m glad I ended up seeing it as the story is quite interesting….
