    Burnt Offerings

    ★★★

    A family moves into a palatial summer home, only to find its walls contain bad omens and sinister motivations that begin to threaten the minds and lives of its new occupants.

    Burnt Offerings is one of those classic 70s horrors that people of a certain age always recall terrifying them as a child. And, to be fair, there is some creepiness in its iconography and its overall atmosphere. For me, the film falls a little flat, and while I understand…

    Stage Fright

    ★★★

    ...DACK RAMBO

    After making a mid-reception flit from their wedding day, a young couple, David and Jill, stumble upon a mob-killing. After David is beaten and Jill raped, the newlyweds struggle to find catharsis in the aftermath of the attack and kind of, in a…
