Hidden Gems: See No Evil 2
First off, let me start this by explaining why I feel that See No Evil 2 meets the qualifications for a Hidden Gems addition. Judging by the excitement and anticipation I saw on social media leading up to the release of this movie, it might seem a little strange to consider this gem “hidden.” But […]
Ever make one of those decisions in life, that at first seems like it’s going to be a good call, and then five minutes after you make the choice, you realize what a horrible mistake you made? Well, that’s pretty much the case when my brother and I stumbled upon the Urban Legends: Bloody Mary film. We picked […]
So, as any pop culture aficionado knows, this Monday was the 30th anniversary of the date of the detention in The Breakfast Club. Given the fact that that film is my favorite movie of all time, I am always more than willing to pay homage to it. With that thought in mind, I decided to […]

I love Friday the 13th. It’sa chance to pretend it’s October for a day and indulge in horror. For most people, that means a marathon of all the Friday the 13th movies. But I say there is no need to limit horror to this one franchise just because it shares the same name as the […]
This past week brought a bit of unexpected good news for horror movie fans: those of us who have been hoping that there’d ever be a Saw VIII received word that said movie might be well on its way to being made—not only sometime this decade, but even as early as next year. Now, if […]
