Mike’s Review: Eli (2019)

★★ out of ★★★★★ Hey Netflix, we see you over there! Yeah, you. Trying your darnedest to jump on that horror bandwagon, peer in to the abyss, produce that oh-so-perfect horror film, and reap the ghoulish accolades of horror fans everywhere. Just so you know, it's not working. While 2019’s Eli is awfully close to being a solid film you still have a lot of work to do to make in the fast-paced world of horror.

Eric’s FilmQuest Review: To Your Last Death (2019)

★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★ To Your Last Death is a unicorn of a movie. A gory R-rated 2-D Western animated film. It's a rowdy romp that uses familiar themes but takes full advantage of the unusual animated medium. It feels like an animated comic book on steroids.

Eric’s FilmQuest Review: Finale (2019)

★★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★ This savage and grisly new Danish production features a carefully threaded story line that follows two young women, stuck working at a lonely rural gas station, who are subjected to what at first appears to be creepy pranking turns into something wholly sinister. This movie will reward hardened horror fans. Not for the faint of heart!

★ ★ ★ out of ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A young couple who have achieved minor celebrity status through a YouTube jump-scare pranking show, and find themselves victims of their own success as their weekend getaway finds them terrified and trying to escape a wicked and deadly plot against them and, curiously, a ghost.

Mike’s Review: Girl on the Third Floor (2019)

★★.5 out of ★★★★★ As we’ve all come to learn in the horror game, a haunted house, no matter how haunted, does not a movie make. For that matter, a bunch of spooky trappings within a haunted house, also does not a movie make.

Robert’s Review: Mary (2019)

★★ out of ★★★★★ In spite of some pretty camera work, Gary Oldman and Emily Mortimer couldn't bail water fast enough to keep this movie afloat.

Mike’s Review: Martin (1978)

★★★★ 1/2 out of ★★★★★ Vampires have been around for a long time (read: possibly forever?) and their story has been told in a weirdly limitless number of ways. Sexy vampires. Gory vampires. Child vampires. Deaf vampires. Suffice it to say, the votes are in and humanity LOVES its vampires!

Eric’s Review: Killer Sofa (2019)

★★1/2 out of ★★★★★ Every now and again, you run into a title that you just need to check out because it seems so absurd. Remarkably, it's better than I expected (low threshold there) but it also isn't as gonzo as I expected it to be. Done with heart on a low budget, it's entertaining, warts and all.

Mike’s Review: Wolf Creek (2005)

★★★★ out of ★★★★★ The joy of youth. The post-college road trip. Finding your way in vast spaces. Unconstrained, unconfined, uncontrolled. The world is your oyster, until it isn’t.

Mike and Eric’s Review of It: Chapter Two (2019)

Mike’s Review: ★★★ out of ★★★★★ Eric's Review: ★★★1/2 out of ★★★★★ The big horror movie that everyone has been waiting for has landed. It: Chapter Two delivers a good looking, well-acted and often scary film that is also overly long, and has a mechanical narrative style, but is, in the end, an enjoyable outing.

Mike’s Review: House on Sorority Row (1983)

★★.5 out of ★★★★★ College isn’t for everyone. There’s peer pressure, there’s social acclimatization, there’s the freshman 15, there’s the daily grind of keeping one’s grades in check to maintain that almighty scholarship, and then there’s the relationships. The social bond that’s created can be a lasting and spiritually satisfying affinity, but the bond can go so deep that it’ll eventually turn collegiate relations sour and crazy.
