Month: October 2026
An Taibhse, or, When Irish Eyes Are Shining
The Irish language period horror movie is beautiful but shallow (Spoilers inevitable)
The Autopsy of Jane Doe, or, Final Exam
The movie so full of triggers, gore, and solid performances it can take a while to notice how it’s kind of cheesy (mild spoilers)
Grave Encounters, or, I saw a ghost, it was a-really scary
If the Ghost Adventures crew were actually good at finding ghosts, their show wouldn’t have lasted 28 seasons
Dracula A.D. 1972, or, Wah-wahmpire
The Count finds himself in London in the swingin’ 1970s and he’s got a score to settle with some rambunctious youths
The Terrornauts, or, Worst Contact
The charmingly old-school, low-budget British sci-fi movie I’d been hoping to see… is nowhere to be found in The Terrornauts
The Haunting, or, Some Adaptations Are Born Bad
Revisited the revered 1963 haunted house movie and verified that I don’t like it
Mārama, or, Walking Backwards Into The Future
A Victorian gothic horror/revenge movie about the horrors of colonization of Aotearoa and appropriation of Māori culture. (General spoilers)
Phantasm III, or, The Idea Of Rocky
My official launch of Spooktober 2026 is my farewell to the Phantasm series
