No, seriously, turn around and see for yourself. Once again, I have no official gender and horror movie for today, because right now we’re in the middle of spring break. So instead, I’ve selected a more recent film that deals with gender and horror—the second adaptation of H.G. Wells’ The Invisible Man. When I say that …

This is…
To start with, I have one thing to say. Get Out is the better movie. I’ve now seen Us twice, and while it’s gotten better the second time, Get Out is still the better movie. Yeah, I thought I’d get that one out of the way immediately.
In a small town…
I hope you like this movie more than I did. As I’ve previously mentioned in my Pet Sematary review, typically I’d start my review with a basic outline of what happens before going into my thoughts and feelings. I feel like in most cases, that’s a good way to structure a review. Okay, so now I’m going …
As the T-800 said to the trucker…
How should he have known to get out?. (Unmarked Spoilers) Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) should have known to get out because before he even meets the parents of his girlfriend, Rose Armitage (Allison Williams), they hit and kill a deer with their car.

Lock, Stock, Snatch, RocknRolla & Two Smoking Barrels
Learn the most creative ways to call someone a c**t. Recently I found myself with a dilemma because I wanted to see a movie and the one I was going to see, The Turning, got absolutely destroyed by critics and audiences alike. Oh well, now I have more time to read the book as I wait for …

The De Niro
The overindulgent retread that real critics rushed to shower with praise. After watching this movie with my dad, he wondered aloud what it would be like for a newcomer to watch The Irishman. Someone unfamiliar with Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, or Joe Pesci and wouldn’t watch the movie with that background in their mind. To …
Are you in the mood to watch a movie?
Because I’ve got a movie for you to watch Friday night. Safecracker Red (Luke Bracey) has just gotten out jail and happily reunites with his family. His wife, Chloe (Nina Dobrev), is an aspiring artist with a whole show on prison walls and is forced to work with this scumbag name Derek Blarney (David Hewlett). …
What’s Swedish for Wicker Man?
Good thing I started the year with Little Women, because… I hate this movie. As someone who didn’t like Hereditary, writer/director Ari Aster’s previous film, I wasn’t expecting to like this movie, and it exceeded my expectations in that department. Because not only do I hate this movie, but it’s that particular kind of hate that …
Two movies that won’t leave you foaming at the mouth
A horror retrospective. Rabid (1977) is a movie from director David Cronenberg, whose films are well known for their body horror and sexual weirdness. The premise is that following a motorcycle accident that her boyfriend Hart Read (Frank Moore) got into for no discernable reason, Rose (Marilyn Chambers) is taken to a nearby plastic surgery clinic for treatment.

Twas the night before Christmas…
I hope you asked Santa for another unnecessary remake (Unmarked Spoilers) Why did this movie have to be called Black Christmas? Yes, it’s a slasher movie set during Christmas and about a sorority, but beyond that, the two films have so little in common that I don’t know why this couldn’t have been made as a …
