Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 30 – Brightburn
There have been many takes on “What if Superman was a bad guy?” over the years. With Ultraman leading the Crime Syndicate, communist dictator Superman, and Nazi Superman just […]
X-pounded Universe 103 – Shadowcatastrophe
Mysterious aliens arrive and start messing with our transformed friends on Xhaldia! Meanwhile Shadowcat is apparently just wandering through the walls of the Enterprise because X-Men, like wizards, have no […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 29 – The Visit
I’m not one of those people that jumped on the Shyamalan hate bandwagon. He’s definitely made some stinkers but there are a ton of directors that never got the […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 28 – A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)
When this movie originally came out there was a lot of people that were vocally trashing it. For me, the original Nightmare on Elm Street movies were my gateway drug […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 27 – Truth or Dare (2018)
A while ago I watch another movie called Truth or Dare thinking I was going to be watching this movie. It was so bad that I forced Jef to watch […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 26 – Happy Death Day 2U
After the first movie ended with the closed time loop and everything all worked out; I was wondering how exactly they were going to pull off doing a sequel. The […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 25 – Happy Death Day
Turns out what was originally just going to be Purge week is turning into an entire Blumhouse Productions week. This is another one that I have been meaning to see […]
X-pounded Universe 102 – Just call me Archangel of the Morning, Baby
The pride and craftsmanship our author takes in the simple act of a “Wolverine drinks some prune juice” gag is more obvious and satisfactory than any sense of accomplishment either […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 24 – The First Purge
Now for the last of the films in the Purge franchise, at least so far. While each movie has tried to shift focus on to different aspects surrounding the yearly […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 23 – The Purge: Election Year
At first we saw the Purge through the eyes of the rich, then we saw it through the poor, and now we get a blending of the two. A […]
Dark Realms – System Mastery 159
We didn’t know it when we started, but there’s a theme to this year’s Ween episodes beyond just leftover horror games floating around the library. And that theme is “Oops […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 22 – The Purge: Anarchy
Now for the second installment in the Purge series of movies. Where the first one focused on the perspective of Purge Night invading into what would normally be a […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 21 – The Purge
While the idea of the Purge has soaked into my mind via the pop culture zeitgeist, I had somehow managed to never see one of these before, so it’s […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 20 – The Midnight Matinee (2017)
This is going to conclude anthology week and I could not be happier. The premise of the movie being that all these are being showed at a movie theater […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 19 – The Field Guide to Evil
Now this is much more along the lines of what an anthology should be used for. Eight stories from eight directors from eight different countries all sharing folktales from […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 18 – Horror Hotel (2015)
If you’re reading this and you haven’t listened to the episode of Movie Mastery where we watched Return to Horror Hotel then a lot of this might not make sense. […]
Movie Mastery – Return to Horror Hotel (2019)
This horror anthology runs the gamut of topics from the subversive quality of platonic male touch to the charming and lovely nature of middle America that we all still seem […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 16 – Watch if You Dare
For the next in the horror anthology series, we have the rare one that eschews a framing mechanism for the short films and just plays them back-to-back. I have […]
Horrortoberfest 2019 – Day 15 – Charlotte
To make the transition from Creepy Doll Week to Anthology Week easier, I found a horror anthology that features a creepy doll as the background story. Anthologies have several […]
