Eric’s Review: Summer of ’84 (2018)
★★★ out of ★★★★★
Plucky young teenage boys suspect a local cop of being a serial killer in this 80’s throwback thriller. Sound familiar?

★★★★ 1/2 out of ★★★★★
This is the Unicorn of International horror movies: The Great Bollywood horror film.
Eric’s Review: Black Mountain Side (2014)
★★1/2 out of ★★★★★
There are elements of a great survival horror tale here, but the end product is inconsistent in this half-thawed stew of madness and isolation.
Eric’s Review: The Transfiguration (2016)
★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★
A sad and bleak little independent coming-of-age story of a would-be little urban vampire, whose pushes back against his miserable life in the New York ghetto in a very strange and sociopathic way.

Robert’s Review: Ginger Snaps (2000)
★★★★★ out of ★★★★★
Bullying, puberty, lycanthropy. Life’s not easy for a high school girl.
Mike and Eric’s Review of Suspiria (2018)
The Movie that could not be remade, has been remade! Luca Guadagnino’s complex retelling of the Giallo Classic is artistically compelling.

Eric’s Review: Overlord (2018)
★★★★ out of ★★★★★
Simply put, a fun time at the movies! A big, brash, and gory WWII tale, featuring undead Nazi super-soldiers.
Robert’s Review: Dead by Midnight (11pm Central)
★★★3/4 out of ★★★★★
What if Rhonda Shear or Joe Bob Briggs were harbingers of the apocalypse…?
Mike’s Review: The God Inside My Ear (2017)

Eric’s Review: Survival of the Film Freaks (2018)
★★★★ out of ★★★★★ (Because I love the genre)
★★★ out of ★★★★★ (If you’re not a fan of cult films)
A Documentary Celebration of the Cult film, from the glory days of Grindhouse and the VHS Era. If you are 35 or older, this will trigger some great memories.

★ out of ★★★★★
Sometimes tentacles just ain’t enough.

★★ out of ★★★★★
Further proof that Lovecraft-y movies just aren’t the same without Jeffrey Combs.
Robert’s Review: The Maze (1953)
★★1/2 out of ★★★★★
It’s kinda like The Frog Prince, but only kinda.
Eric’s Review: Corpse (2018)
★★ out of ★★★★★
A psychedelic art-school retelling of Robert W. Chamber’s King in Yellow, in desperate search of a coherent plot.
Eric’s Review: Hammer of the Gods (2018)
★★★★ out of ★★★★★
Rock and Roll mixed with hallucinogens that reveal horrible truths. What could possibly go wrong?
Eric’s Review: Housewife (2017)
★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★
A wildly original, but often difficult to follow cosmic horror tale about dreams and destiny, from an emerging Turkish horror auteur director.
Mike’s Review: Terrifier (2017)
★out of ★★★★★ It’s rather rare that I, or for that matter, any reviewer starts a review with “…don’t watch this […]
Amy’s Review: Hell House LLC II: The Abaddon Hotel
★★★ of ★★★★★
A disappointing sequel to a randomly fun haunted house movie.
Eric’s Review: Dave Made a Maze (2017)
★★★★ out of ★★★★★
Dave made a Maze is surreal pop performance art that uses confetti for blood and silly string for guts. Completely unique and very odd.
Mike’s Review: Unsane (2018)
Pure brilliance. Elegant simplicity. Well if Regency pictures came to me and asked me for a pull-quote blurb, that’s what I’d say. Because it’s true.
Mike’s Review: The Nun (2018)
★1/2 out of ★★★★★
Lay. Off. The. Fog. Machine.
Eric’s Review: The Predator (2018)
★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★
An entertaining and showy movie with a great cast and great dialogue, but an all too familiar been-there-done-that plot.
