Killer canines, infected teachers, and an alien spouse
It’s a trio of Asian horror flicks without the usual supernatural style, which is my fave. Let’s so how these other subgenres worked out for me. PROJECT SILENCE (2023) The Mist meets Cujo on a bridge? Project Silence is repetitive … Continue reading

They feed on flesh, so get out the popcorn and cherry cola
It’s a trio of films about infections and zombies, and two out of the three are loaded with gut-munching. The other one, not so much. Actually, not at all. A HARD PLACE (2025) This is such a perfectly bizarre zombie … Continue reading

Clash of the subgenres
Each of these films features a curious combination of subgenres that makes them all rather unique when taken as a whole, yet simultaneously cliché in how the individual subgenres are presented and play out in each movie. FOG CITY (2023) … Continue reading

A foursome of zombified flicks
This was a mixed bag of zombie types and zombie subgenres, and the satisfaction level for the hubby and I varied, but we definitely agreed on which ones worked for us and which ones didn’t. We also had an absolute … Continue reading

BOUGHT ON BLU: another possessed girl, a sleazy remake, and a horror anthology
The three latest additions to my collection were blind buys—one was included with a 3-movie set that I bought for one of the other films, the second is a remake of an 80s trash classic so I felt obligated to … Continue reading

When zombies rip out your insides and tug on your heartstrings
These two flicks are more than just gut-munching fun. In fact, flesh-eating takes a backseat to character-driven stories. So how did that work out for my short attention span? Let’s find out. DIE ALONE (2024) Don’t expect a Frank Grillo … Continue reading

BOUGHT ON BLU: it happened in 1971
This is an influential but forgotten trio of flicks I bought on Blu-ray that ironically all came from 1971, and one of them has some homoerotic content, landing it on the does the gay guy die? page. FRIGHT (1971) I … Continue reading

Of men and monsters
In this trio, handsome leading men face off against various horror threats, and I actually enjoyed all three of them. The movies, I mean. Okay, the men as well. THE BEAST WITHIN (2024) This is a more sophisticated, story-driven approach … Continue reading

A queer double feature!
It’s slasher and infected chaos with gay and trans characters as I take a look at two indie flicks by queer filmmakers. INHERITANCE (2021) Michael Kenneth Fahr, director/writer/star of the gay film Victimized, is back with a second film, and … Continue reading
