Strange Darling – Film Review
I couldn’t fully decide how I felt about this luscious, vicious and provocative thriller, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing.
Speak No Evil (2022) – Film Review
This bleak, cruel and twisted Danish horror film would have been unbearable if it didn’t also explore some interesting ideas about politeness and boundaries. It still made me feel not quite myself for the rest of the evening.
The Terror – TV Review
I enjoyed Dan Simmons’ sprawling novel about the doomed Franklin expedition, and this handsome, well-acted adaptation does justice to the haunting story of 19th century Arctic horror and survival.
Late Night with the Devil – Film Review
A slow-burn found-footage horror flick that offers show business satire as well as a refreshing new spin on demonic possession.
Full Dark, No Stars by Stephen King – Book Review
I felt like re-visiting this collection of four dark and disturbing novellas of varying quality, all centred around the themes of justice, complicity and retribution.
Knock at the Cabin – Film Review
This apocalyptic thriller is a disappointingly mediocre M. Night Shyamalan offering, a very silly movie that takes itself way too seriously and is neither great nor memorably awful.
Constantine – Film Review
I haven’t seen this superhero/horror flick since I first watched it back in 2005 and thought it was mostly meh. I was pleasantly surprised when I gave it a second chance recently, and discovered that it’s actually much, much better than I remembered.
Old – Film Review
M. Night Shyamalan’s thriller about a nightmare holiday on a beach where you age a year every 30 minutes is as entertainingly preposterous as I was hoping for.
The Exorcist – Film Review
