Social media and serial killers don’t necessarily go hand in hand. They will soon enough. Trust in that nonsense. Facebook “factoids” will be the death of us all. With a satirical edge to its tweets and a gleeful embracing of some severe wickedness, Tragedy Girls, a new horror ...
Awful. Just awful. And, truly, it didn’t need to be this way. Don’t Sleep is, at its core, an intelligent idea for a new horror story. I won’t and can’t fault writer/director Rick Bieber for being somewhat creative there. A boy facing the darker aspects of his soul all too soon ...
In one of the better scenes of Leatherface, a superfluous prequel to Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, a young couple comes across what appears to be some sort of rotting animal along a lonely stretch of road. The girl (Lorina Kamburova) gets out of the truck ...
