 | rosemary's babyMovie Review Roman Polanski’s Rosemary’s Baby (1968) stands as one of the most influential psychological horror films ever made, masterfully combining creeping dread with social commentary. Based on Ira Levin’s novel, the story unfolds in a deceptively ordinary New York apartment building, where newlyweds Rosemary and Guy Woodhouse settle into what appears to be a perfect new life. The film’s brilliance lies in its slow and deliberate pacing, allowing paranoia to grow organically as Rosemary, portrayed with heartbreaking vulnerability by Mia Farrow, begins to suspect that her overly friendly neighbors and even her ambitious husband may be...

 | Jacob's LadderMovie Review A disturbing and deeply unsettling film, Jacob's Ladder is a slow and anguishing descent into the depths of the human psyche. Directed with a sure hand by Adrian Lyne, the film seamlessly blends psychological horror with existential drama, leaving the viewer in a constant state of disorientation. Tim Robbins delivers one of his most intense performances as Jacob Singer, a Vietnam veteran tormented by surreal visions and fragmented memories. The line between reality and hallucination dissolves from the very first scenes, and the film never offers a moment of respite, guiding the viewer through claustrophobic corridors,... Read More |
 | InfernoMovie Review Inferno is the second chapter of the famous Three Mothers trilogy by Dario Argento, a work that fits into the esoteric horror genre with a strong visual and symbolic structure. Shot partly in the evocative setting of Rome, the film is configured as an intricate narrative and sensorial labyrinth, capable of surprising the viewer with sudden twists and disturbing atmospheres. However, despite the high technical and stylistic quality, the ending is perhaps the least convincing element of the entire film. The main strength of Inferno lies precisely in Argento's directorial mastery, who abandons the lively and psychedelic... Read More |
 | Dark WaterMovie Review An American adaptation of the 2002 Japanese film of the same name, directed by Hideo Nakata and based on the novel by Koji Suzuki (both known for The Ring saga), Dark Water marks Walter Salles' debut in genre cinema. The Brazilian director, already internationally appreciated for Central do Brasil and The Motorcycle Diaries, tries his hand here at a psychological thriller with dark and distressing atmospheres. The setting plays a fundamental role in building the tension: Roosevelt Island, an isolated strip of land in the waters of the East River in New York, presents itself as an oppressive place, dominated by gloomy...

 | Scream VIMovie Review Sixth chapter of "Scream", and I would say it would be better to end it here, so as not to bore and above all disappoint those, like me, who strongly loved the film created in 1996 by the genius of Wes Craven, already a cult author with "Nightmare". That film invented a real genre of its own, mixing together slasher, teen movie and black comedy, and became a cult object for the millennial generation and beyond. Returning to this last episode that moves the story from the province to the big city in an attempt to make itself more fascinating in the eyes of teenagers, it is perhaps the worst of the entire saga, 2...

 | The wellMovie Review The twilight settings and the acting performances even of the minor roles are very appreciable, some scenes in the finale give a touch perhaps unintentionally funny that I personally appreciate a lot in horror films. A simple but well-crafted story, with realistic dialogues, the long gore scenes in the film could disturb those like me who do not appreciate them but prefer dark atmospheres and mystery, which are not lacking anyway. A low-budget production that does not disappoint but rather transports us to the past of an Italian genre cinema that is now almost defunct. |
 | Amityville TheaterMovie Review In my opinion, it seemed to keep a little history of Amityville. They used a Ouija board like back in the old Amityville Horror movie. This movie had hardly anything to do with Amityville except that it was in Amityville, NY. Other than that, this had really nothing to do with the history of the house at all. The soundtrack and music in the movie should have had some trace back to Amityville with as far as the theme. Some parts were cool and crazy. Altogether, this movie was ok. That is my review. It is short because I have nothing much else to say. |
