  • Fresh Meat, or, Feed Good People

    Closing out Spooktober with the horror anthology showcasing up-and-coming filmmakers

  • Deadly Friend, or, Number Five Is Undead

    The 1986 movie from horror master Wes Craven is simultaneously a movie that shouldn’t exist and should also be required viewing for everyone

  • Remnants, or, Are The Spirits In The Room With Us?

    Ti West’s short film ghost story for Apple Immersive is extremely effective and hints at the real potential of an entire medium

  • Ken Russell’s The Devils, or, Ladies Love Cool Grandier

    The restoration of a famously controversial and provocative movie about the Inquisition reveals how little of the movie is timeless

  • The Lair of the White Worm, or, She’s Got You Pegged

    The Ken Russell adaptation of Bram Stoker’s last novel is nothing like I’d assumed, and it’s an absolute where-have-you-been-all-my-life delight. (Spoilers)
