The Entity: Collector's Edition (1982) - Blu-ray eview

Details: Published: 14 June 2019; Written by Loron Hays

It just might be one of the scariest ghost movies I have ever seen. There are few words to describe the sheer terror that this film, a classic tale of the supernatural, stirs up within me.

Captive State (2019) - Blu-ray Review

Details: Published: 15 March 2019; Written by Frank Wilkins

Like the trojan horse at the heart of its central allusion, Captive State isn’t what it initially appears to be. Perhaps due to its dour subject matter, its refusal to kowtow to mass appeal, or maybe even because Focus Features didn’t truly know what to do with it, the film is ...

Clinton Road (2019) - Movie Review

Details: Published: 11 June 2019; Written by Loron Hays

Just because there is a lot of screaming in these woods doesn’t mean that what’s happening is all that terrifying. It just could be screams of disgust from the actors. WHY?! WHY?! WHY AM I IN THIS FILM, JESSICA!? Why indeed ...
