Boar Review
Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve and I will be spending most of the day with my family. For this reason, it is safe to say that tonight was the last chance I had to get one final review in for 2019. Wanting to end the year on a good note, I decided to actually re-watch a film that I have already seen and I know for a fact I enjoy. The film I decided to re-visit is Chris Sun’s Boar. The Plot In the Australian outback, a wild boar of staggering size is on a rampage, ripping apart anything and … Read More

Crawl Review
This year has been a pretty great year for horror films and there are still two months to go. I’ve been lucky enough to have seen plenty of entertaining genre flicks in theaters, making the movie-watching experience that much more grandiose. One of my favorites to experience in this manner was, without a doubt, Alexandre Aja’s Crawl. The Plot Braving a category 5 hurricane, Haley is searching for her father. Once finding him, she soon realizes that there is much more than just a storm she needs to stay safe from. Haley and her father must now fight for their … Read More

Anaconda Review
Over the years, there have been countless movies that I’ve caught clips of here and there while randomly flipping through the channels of my TV.

One of those films, that I can now say I’ve seen in its entirety, is Luis Llosa’s Anaconda. The Plot A film crew sets out on an Amazon river to make a documentary on the local tribes of the area. When they pick up a stranger who is stuck on his broken … Read More

Venom Review
One of my favorite things about the horror genre is the diversity of its antagonists. The killers of our favorite movies come in all shapes and sizes. There are the brooding villains from the slasher films, supernatural entities that haunt and hunt their prey alike. Hell, there are even killer gingerbread men and murdering puppets! However, among all of these, some of my favorite films are those that utilize nature’s various killers. You know, films like Jaws, Shakma, Rogue, etc. Add to that list of rampant animal killers Piers Haggard’s 1981 flick, Venom. A trio of criminals plan to take … Read More

Pig Hunt Review
A little while back, I reviewed two films by Australian director Chris Sun, which I greatly enjoyed (see Charlie’s Farm and Daddy’s Little Girl). After a bit of reading on the internet, I learned of his next film about a mammoth of a pig, aptly titled Boar. Quickly getting excited, I just couldn’t wait for the film to be finished, so to keep my appetite for destruction at bay, I found another murderous swine flick to enjoy — James Isaac’s Pig Hunt. John Hickman (Travis Aaron Wade), his girlfriend, and a couple of his former-marine comrades are going on a … Read More
