Dark, sleazy, extremely brutal and over the top in every way. Those are the right words to describe this remake of my absolute favorite horror movie of all time.
It really doesn't pull any punches when it comes to showing the worst sides of humanity. Child abuse, incest, cannibalism, mutilation, you name it. All that paired up with a really strong Christmas vibe conveyed through Christmas decorations being literally everywhere and lighting up the whole thing in festive colors plus,…
Day 1 of my 31 Days of October challenge.
I'm starting my little challenge a bit early this year since I have a big move coming up. I may not be able to review every movie I watch this year but we'll see, I'll try my best.
Ginger Snaps takes the familiar concept of a werewolf story and puts it into a modern setting with a female perspective being the focus. That alone is a great idea since it's usually…
I didn’t mention it in the first one but I did enjoy the sound they chose for the scanning scenes but my god do they overuse the shit out of it in this movie. There’s two variations for our hero and villain and it started to annoy me so much that I had to stop the movie and continue on another day.

Oh wow, this is like a time capsule to my favorite decade in horror. It felt like I watched an 80s slasher without actually watching one!
It does a great job at throwing me back, giving me every slasher trope and cliche that I love with lots of practical gore, unique and great looking monster design as well as a killer score that only reinforces the love that went into this. It's a loveletter to something I’m also in love…
Day 9/31 of my 31 Days of October challenge.
This is my favorite Children of the Corn sequel. To some, that may not mean a lot because it isn't the most beloved franchise and especially the ones after this are often considered some of the worst horror movies out there but I really liked most of them, especially the first one. That's why I decided to rewatch a few, they have this fall vibe to them with the theme of…
