 | The First OmenMovie Review "Create something to fear" is not just a slogan — it’s a promise delivered. The First Omen is a dark and sophisticated prequel to the 1976 classic The Omen. Elegantly directed by Arkasha Stevenson, the film explores the origin of evil through a psychological lens, favoring atmosphere, symbolism, and a slow, chilling build-up over flashy effects. Set in 1970s Rome, the story follows Margaret, a young American novitiate assigned to a convent-run orphanage. What begins as a spiritual journey quickly descends into a gothic nightmare, where motherhood, faith, and manipulation intertwine in a disturbing design. The film... Read More |

If you thought moving was stressful, wait until you see what happens when Roger Cobb opens the door of his house in House!

Zombie hands ringing the doorbell? Check.... Read More |
 | ManhunterMovie Review The Predator's Mind, the Investigator's Soul Manhunter is one of those films that, even decades later, continues to breathe with an icy, hypnotic intensity. The first cinematic adaptation of Thomas Harris’s novel Red Dragon, Michael Mann’s film is a psychological thriller that shuns genre conventions to explore, with patience and precision, the darkness shared between hunter and prey. Unlike many police thrillers, Manhunter focuses less on action and more on inner tension. William Petersen plays Will Graham, an FBI profiler gifted—or cursed—with the ability to completely immerse himself in the minds of the killers... Read More |
 | NosferatuMovie Review A Gothic Masterpiece of Terror by Robert Eggers With "Nosferatu", Robert Eggers delivers a visually and narratively hypnotic film, capable of revisiting the iconic vampire myth with stylistic elegance and rare emotional intensity in contemporary cinema. The director, already acclaimed for The Witch and The Lighthouse, once again proves his talent for creating dense, disturbing, and magnetic atmospheres. Bill Skarsgård is simply terrifying as Count Orlok, a character who embodies the essence of horror without the need for excess. His screen presence is as haunting as it is tragic, and stands out as one of the most... Read More |
 | Goodnight MommyMovie Review A psychological thriller with horror nuances, a remake of a 2014 Austrian film described as disturbing and highly praised by critics. Hidden behind a mask, we find the always good Naomi Watts, here also a producer, in the role of a mother who whispers a horror lullaby in the ears of her children... to tell us that very, too often the monster lives within the walls of the home and in the people closest to us. Compared to the original film, there is much less ferocity and cruelty, but it is still a good film of tension and mystery. The dream sequences are particularly suggestive. |
 | 6-Headed Shark AttackMovie Review As any die-hard Jaws fan can tell you, it’s just not summer without at least one good (or better yet, not so good) shark movie to take in over a six pack and some popcorn. This year brought us 6-Headed Shark Attack, the latest of Asylum’s campy sequels to 2012’s low-budget 2-Headed Shark Attack. The film is directed by Mark Atkins (Sand Sharks... Read More |
 | The MegMovie Review Naturally, no summer would be complete without a glossy, action-packed blockbuster or two for the theater goers among us to gasp over, right? Creature feature fans, not to mention people that have been patiently waiting decades for the next Jaws, have been especially excited for the recent premiere of The Meg. But is The Meg really worth your hard-earned cash and limited spare time or is it more likely to leave you feeling all wet? The Meg stars everyone’s favorite antihero, Jason Statham (The Fate of the Furious,... Read More |
 | The BabadookMovie Review The fear present in The Babadook is almost unfounded. It's hard to remember the last time a potent, eerie mood piece fit this much terror within its walls - both physically and psychologically. Not that films today don't have the power of scaring their audience, it's just that the effect is surface-layer for the most part, easy to shake off because of a certain distance to be attained. In other words, the fear is so within its own horror genre that once taken out the fact that it's a film meant to scare, it does nothing. The Babadook masterfully allows everyone else currently making horror films to take note,... Read More |
