• Can I get a B… can I get a O… can I get a R….. You get it. Yeah, I know, lame as hell, but you know what? That’s exactly what this movie feels like. Holy dear mother of all things that are dear to me. This was such a pathetic closure to a mainstream…

  • Annnnndddd….it’s back! One of the more beloved found footage cult franchises is back for a special Halloween special. I believe the last movie, V/H/S Beyond, was released right about a year ago, around October of 2023. From what I remember, it was serviceable for fans and, regardless, these movies are just plain ol’ wacky, over…

  • Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets by David Simon chronicles a journalist’s exclusive one-year police “internship” in 1988, within Baltimore’s homicide investigative department. This is truly a remarkable piece of journalism. It’s hard and gritty, something you’d obviously expect coming into the book, but the author makes reading all six hundred pages a breeze.…

  • This was a pretty good series. It’s always fun to watch a cat and mouse game between either a serial killer/assassin and a detective or FBI agent hellbent on catching them. In the series, however, I did wish there were just a bit more “close encounters” between The Jackal and Bianca. It was still exciting…

  • The Housemaid’s Secret by Frieda McFadden is the second book in The Housemaid trilogy. I remember really liking The Housemaid, so I was really hyped for this second installment. Being that the stories are not really interconnected, reading the previous books isn’t a requirement. This one has a nice psychological twist, but I don’t believe…

  • Each year, horror fans are treated to a couple of movies that have a bit more budget than the rest, have a bit more star power, more advertisement, more hype as well as being directed by a more prominent director. Weapons falls into that horror movie category in 2025. While the story and premise were…

  • This must be the third time I’ve watched this incredible Korean crime thriller, and it never fails to amaze me. Many recent posts about the top Korean movies of all time often include Memories of Murder on the list. Since it had been a while since my last viewing, I decided to revisit it to…

  • Hey guys, look it here: this mini six-episode series is some BAT SHIT CRAZY STUFF! Seriously, what the fuck happened here?! 😂 To be sure, it has been a long while since I watched anything related to Ju-On. In fact, it was likely just the original movie that I watched and not much after that.…
