These two films explore the fears, memories, dark sides, and mental states of two different people: a single father and a single woman. But is what’s going on in their heads scary to us? DARK SILENCE (2016) I can’t be … Continue reading
PRIME TIME: found footage, a haunted whore house, and baby killer killers
A streaming session of indies brought me an assortment of subgenres, which is never a bad thing…as long as the movies aren’t bad. So let’s see how these three turned out. CHAR MAN (2019) I’ll get right to it. The … Continue reading

SAY WHAT? 4 flicks in foreign languages
Alien creatures, Bigfoot, infected folks, demonic possession…these are a few of my favorite things. But did other countries do them right? Let’s take a look. DEAD SHADOWS (2012) The 74-minute length had me doing a happy dance…until the movie ended, … Continue reading
Candyman. Candyman. Candyman. Candyman…I can’t do it!
Short of Rawhead Rex, which I love but author Clive Barker apparently hated, Candyman for me is the ultimate movie based on his work. In 1992 it was surrounded mostly by desperate attempts to keep 80s franchises alive as well … Continue reading
