The Jurassic Dead Review
Not too long ago, it seemed that everyone and their mother was making a zombie flick. The sub-genre was extremely saturated and it didn’t take long to bore of it. Now, with a great deal of time having passed since my last dance with the un-dead, I figured it was a great time to check out one of the most original films I’ve ever encountered. I’m referring to Milko Davis and Thomas Martwick’s The Jurassic Dead. The Plot After a meteorite that he predicted would make impact actually does, a mentally unstable scientist unleashes his greatest weapon — a re-animated, … Read More

Train to Busan Review
There were a ton of horror films released in 2016. Like every year, there are of course, the good, the bad, and the ugly. I wish I could say I’ve seen them all, but we all know that this is close to impossible with real life getting in the way of movie watching. There were, however, a few last-minute releases that were making waves amongst horror fans that I knew I just had to see sooner rather than later. One of those films is Sang-ho Yeon’s outbreak flick, Train to Busan. The quick synopsis for Train to Busan is rather … Read More

Summer Camp Review
I wonder how many great films fall completely under the radar of the masses, never to be seen. I’m sure there are tons of amazing horror films out there that I’ll never watch or never even hear of. It’s a shame, but it is an unfortunate reality. Luckily, I was able to watch at least one more of these films, as I fear Alberto Marini’s Summer Camp will fall tragically into this realm of unheard of gems. Summer Camp tells the story of four American/English-speaking counselors who have volunteered to work at a Summer camp in Spain. Shortly after the … Read More

Cabin Fever Review
Eli Roth’s debut film, Cabin Fever, will always have a solid spot in my ‘favorite horror movie’ list. I actually enjoyed it so much that I got excited when its sequel was originally announced. Could we be getting more amazing horror movie magic? Sadly, it was not to be as what was released as Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever remains to this day one of the worst films I’ve ever seen. While the second sequel and third installment in the franchise had some redeeming qualities (see Cabin Fever: Patient Zero), it still wasn’t able to reach the greatness of Roth’s … Read More

Contracted: Phase II Mini-Review
Contracted: Phase II picks up directly where the first one ends; Samantha (Najarra Townsend) has come full circle with the disease and is gunned down in the street. It doesn’t take long for all of her interactions from the previous film to start having dire consequences. Riley (Matt Mercer, Madison County, Auteur) is now feeling the effects of the disease and races against the clock to search for a vaccine. Man, oh man, did Josh Forbes and Craig Walendziak come out swinging? This sequel goes all out with a fantastic beginning to what could become a wonderfully thought out trilogy. … Read More

Condemned Review
Each year that I take part in this whole film review pastime, I become more aware of what is going on with the horror genre, or so I think anyway. With that said, there are still quite a bit of releases that manage to fly right under my radar. Apparently, reading all of the greatest and most popular genre news sites/blogs still won’t keep you informed on 100% of the goings on, as I wasn’t really aware of Eli Morgan Gesner’s Condemned until the film was practically ready for its official home release. Maya (Dylan Penn) has officially hit her … Read More
