A slasher, an alien beehive, and a killer clock
Even if they are not the greatest films, this is another trio of indies that offered some standout moments for me. THE CLOCK (2024) If you just need an old school, low budget style movie about a family that buys … Continue reading

My weekend was filled with a 4-flick marathon of movies featuring humans with animalistic tendencies, so let’s sink our teeth into them. SHARK GIRL (2024) I really expected this one to be some sort of trashy, indie mess, but the … Continue reading

It all happened in the last twenty minutes
There are all kinds of terrors in the latest triple feature from my streaming watchlist, but all three movies have one thing in common—nothing really happens until the final act. Let’s find out if it was worth watching the first … Continue reading

TUBI TERRORS: killer mermaids, a killer creature, and a death plane
I made the hubby sit through all three of these with me, and for what it’s worth, he thought two out of three were pretty good. MERMAID ISLE (2019) Director Jason Mills hooked me with some of his earlier horror … Continue reading
