  • Evil Dead Rise

    Evil Dead Rise

    β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

    Over ten years after the last Evil Dead film released theatrically, and exactly five years after the TV adaptation was cancelled by Starz, the series resurrects itself in top form. Evil Dead Rise has been my most anticipated horror release -- Scream content aside -- (hello, Twitter handle!) and it didn't disappoint in any way at all. By far the bloodiest in the saga, it continues the loose narrative in a claustrophobic apartment building with two sisters, their trio of…

    Scream VI

    β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

    History repeats itself in the case of Scream VI, a sequel released one year later that manages to enhance almost every element Radio Silence had perfect in the previous film. It wants to steer the saga in an entirely new direction -- out of Woodsboro, and into New York City, where almost all of our legacy survivors from the past are again stalked and hunted by a deranged lunatic in a Ghostface mask. However, the threat is much more personal…

    Erotic Ghost Story

    β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

    Feels like it's been a little while since I tapped into Hong Kong cinema, so today's pick is Erotic Ghost Story. From Nam Nai Choi, who also directed bizarre flicks like Riki-Oh, The Seventh Curse, and The Cat, it sets itself in a village full of prayers for fertility and true commitment to carnal pleasure. I don't think I've ever seen a film quite like this. It isn't exactly porn, but it is an erotic adult film that pushes the…

    List: 2023 Pride

    Been a few years since I first watched Re-Animator, and with my better understanding of the horror genre and wider taste nowadays, I've been dying to revisit it. So much of this is off the walls off the bat, and that's precisely why I love it. Begins immediately with a grisly resurrection gone wrong and jaw-dropping body horror SFX, before transitioning into some of the funkiest title credits you've ever seen with a score that flat-out rips…

    Fear Street: 1666

    β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

    Fear Street Part Three brings us back to the last film's jaw-dropper of an ending with the best of the series' cast in brand new roles. I've never been the biggest fan of folk horror, but this works; the switch from slasher to supernatural distinguishes this chapter from the last two as the town grows sinister, effectively keeping you guessing what the evil of Fear Street actually is. As the witch hunt begins, so does the feeling of dread, with…

    Candyman

    β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

    Candyman was a gem for the 90s audience, and Candyman will be another gem today. I can't put into words how surreal this viewing experience was, sitting in a jam packed theater for the first time in a long time with franchise fans new and old. This cast was magnificent; Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Teyonah Parris, and Colman Domingo effectively bringing the urban legend back to life, with themes surrounding race and social class utilized in the best way since the…
