Quick looks at modern horror part 6
THE POSSESSION OF MICHAEL KING (2014) The Possession of Michael King is definitely out to grab the Paranormal Activity and The Last Exorcism crowd—but it’s kind of better than both. It’s much darker and more sadistic. And while it’s sort … Continue reading

Hostel comes home to die…
Hostel Part III is a direct-to-DVD third film in the series without Eli Roth’s involvement. You can’t expect much, but if you get it for 5 bux it’s totally worth completing your trilogy. This time, it’s not even safe to … Continue reading
