#145 – The Purge: Anarchy

I cannot explain why I like these Purge movies so much.  The first I thought was original but came apart at the end and this one is more of an action film than a horror piece and I gotta say that while there are parts I just rolled my eyes at, overall I like this…

#146 – Extraterrestrial

A horror movie that was just alright enough when I watched it to keep my interest but now writing about it weeks later I hardly remember a thing about it.  No memorable scares or characters and I guess that’s the most damning thing about the movie. Recommend? I would just so then you can tell…

#128 – Zombeavers

Okay look, I love a ridiculous, out of control, horror comedy as much as the next guy but when the main characters are as loathsome as these ones and the comedy can’t even bring out a chuckle, well then you’ve failed.  Of anyone I know, I was most looking forward to this movie because of…

#113 – Joy Ride 3: Roadkill

Nothing about this movie is scary, the horror scenes are dull and none of the characters are interesting let alone compelling.  I should’ve wrote this review right after I watched it because I hardly remember a thing about it except the feeling of dullness.  Maybe had I seen the first 2 Joy Ride films it…

#103 – Wolf Cop

This movie is crazy, sometimes that hurts the film more than helps it, but overall I liked it.  A movie that tried to be more gonzo than actually focusing on the story and the characters but there’s also a sense of fun and wackiness that you can’t help but get behind.  So much less of…

#119 – The Houses October Built

A surprisingly effective horror film that really uses the found footage aspect to it’s advantage for once.  The Houses October Built looks at the scare house culture while also weaving an interesting story to follow.  As a group of friends get together to cross the country looking for the best haunted house attractions they’re also…

Crimson Peak

Well welcome back Guillermo del Toro! I’m really interested to see how big budget horror will work with Del Toro at the helm.  Aside from a few creepy ghost scenes this movie is all going to come down to the mood and the atmosphere.  The trailer seems to be going more for action and thrills…

#58 – Honeymoon

One of the films on my Hidden Gems – Horror list, Honeymoon is a movie that’s really hard to talk about without giving things away.  In fact, I find good horror the hardest genre to talk about because of that reason so I’ll say this:  I thought this movie was horror executed almost perfectly.  Rose Leslie…

#118 – Hayride 2

This movie is awful…period.  You can’t even put this in the B horror category, you have to go all the way down to D or F horror.  Bad acting and a story that never, ever makes sense.  I know going into a movie called Hayride 2 and with such a bad poster that you get…

#52 – Housebound

A smart horror/comedy that starts off strong but loses steam later in the film.  The setup is well done and the characters are well established.  There are a decent amount of scares and some good laughs, but with most horror comedies it struggles to find the right balance and at times seems to get in…
