Glass Review
I’d imagine as a filmmaker it is very hard to please fans all the time. The more movies you create, the more of a chance you have of producing a dud or two. This has certainly been said about M. Night Shyamalan over the years. With his recent rash of films, however, it seems that he has actually re-gained the trust of his fanbase. Was the long time director able to win over viewers once again with his latest project, Glass? The Plot Security guard David Dunn uses his special abilities to track Kevin Wendell Crumb, a disturbed man who … Read More

Justice League Dark Review
Guys, I have some BREAKING NEWS… I like to watch things other than horror films! Okay, okay, I don’t need to be so obnoxious about it, but you’d be surprised at how many times I’ve gotten flack for reviewing things other than straight up horror flicks on this site. I’ve probably lost regular readers because of my reviews of No Holds Barred and Son of Batman, but quite frankly, I do this for myself, because it’s fun, and because I enjoy writing about the things that I watch. So, if I haven’t lost you already, read on, my friend, and … Read More

Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom! Review
The few animated films that I’ve reviewed here at Repulsive Reviews have contained at least some elements that could be considered dark and thriller-like. This time around, however, the animated film I have chosen to review is just pure old fun and is actually rather family friendly. Rick Morales’ Justice League: Attack of the Legion of Doom! brings the DC and LEGO universes together once again in an exciting battle between the Justice League and the newly formed Legion of Doom. Lex Luthor is sick and tired of the Justice League and wants to rid the world of the hero … Read More

Batman vs Robin Review
You guys all know that I need a break from the horror genre once in a while. I’m sure you feel the same way, from time to time. I’ve done it before and I will continue to do so, if not just to give my brain a little break from so much carnage. What better way to do this than with a little comic book animation! Jay Oliva’s Batman vs Robin is just what I needed to break up the monotony of blood, gore, nudity, and every other trope we’ve come to expect from our favorite genre. Batman vs Robin … Read More

Son of Batman Review
If you’re a fan of the site and you’ve been following my personal reviews, you already know that I not only enjoy horror films, but I also love mythology stories and anything having to do with comic books and superheros. It is this love of superheros that has brought me to review Ethan Spaulding’s new animated film, Son of Batman. Ra’s al Ghul and his League of Shadows’ stronghold has been breached by a former student, Slade Wilson, who has come to kill Ra’s and put an end to the League. Slade is successful and in doing so, forces Talia … Read More

Sparks Review
I’ve been a fan of superheros since before I was a fan of horror. I still have all of my action figures from when I was younger and still have a huge collection of comics, as well. Although Todd Burrows and Christopher Folino’s Sparks is a superhero film, it still has certain elements that any horror fan can appreciate. Sparks is full of torture, murder, and revenge, which are all things we see in horror films on a daily basis. However, with ambitions to be like other hero films like The Spirit or Kick-Ass, it seems this one just falls … Read More
