No One Gets Out Alive Review
No One Gets Out Alive is a fantastic name for a horror movie and one I’m surprised hasn’t been used before. I didn’t even know the story, but I heard that name and knew I needed to fire it up. Is the title applicable to the movie itself? Nope, not really, but I wanted to say something nice at the top before I st ..read more

Slumber Party Massacre Review
If you’re at all a fan of 80s slasher flicks, chances are probably good that you’ve seen the cult classic Slumber Party Massacre (1982) and its sequels. Chances are also probably decent that you’re getting tired of the endless remakes, reboots, and sequels to 80s horror movies ..read more

Malignant Review
This is going to be a tricky one to write without getting into spoilers because all I want to do is shout about all of the things that happen in this movie. It makes me sad that as time goes on, people won’t be able to experience Malignant the same way I did. I saw it opening night, having only seen the fairly bland trailer ..read more

The Mutation Review
Look, if you put a giant rat in your movie, chances are very good that I’m going to watch your movie. The Mutation put a giant rat in their movie, so I watched it. The rat is actually a human being in a suit that barely resembles a rat, but I will take my giant rat however I can get it. It’s unfortunate that the movie surrounding this giant rat man thing is not very interesting.
The plot is pretty basic though somehow there is still qu ..read more

A group of friends find themselves hunted down in the caves by a creature… from another world.
Title: It Came from Below | Director: Dan Allen | Writers: Dan Allen, Ashurst | Starring: Megan Purvis, Tom Taplin, Jake Watkins, Georgie Banks | Runtime: 1 hr 21 min | Genres: Horror, Thriller | Source: Publicist | Unstarred Review
It Came from Below Review
It Came from Below, when judged on the bars of a low-budget movie (which, let’s be honest, are much lower than for the higher budget films), does surprisingly well in the first half of the film. Megan Purvis (Jessie, main character) is solid, a ..read more
