 | Scream 7Movie Review Scream 7: A Bloody, Nostalgic Homecoming for Sidney PrescottScream 7 officially brings the franchise back to its roots, trading the "Core Four" era for a direct line to its 1996 origins. By leaning heavily into nostalgia, the film centers Sidney Prescott’s new battles not just against a masked killer, but against the weight of her own history. The Good: Emotional Stakes & Meta-Mayhem The film shines when it examines the intergenerational trauma and the complex mother-daughter dynamics that have always haunted the series. It’s a grounded take on Sidney’s legacy, wrapped in the franchise’s signature... Read More |
 | The Ugly StepsisterMovie Review The Aesthetics of Pain in "The Ugly Stepsister"."The Ugly Stepsister" belongs to that contemporary wave of cinema that delights in dismantling the foundations of classic fairy tales to reveal their most rotten and realistic core. Director Emilie Blichfeldt doesn't settle for a simple horror "rebranding" of Cinderella; she stages a descent into hell that is as visually sumptuous as it is psychologically unbearable. A Fierce Critique of PerfectionThe beating heart of the film is the obsession with the body. While in the original tale the "ugliness" of the stepsisters was often a moral trait or a simple...

 | They LiveMovie Review They Live by John Carpenter is not just a science fiction film; it is a fierce and still relevant gut punch against rampant consumerism and media manipulation. Carpenter, with his mastery of genre blending, gives us a film that, despite being from 1988, resonates with a disarming power even today. The film's strength lies in its brilliant simplicity: an unemployed worker, John Nada (played with rugged charisma by wrestler Roddy Piper), discovers a pair of special sunglasses that... Read More |
 | The Fourth KindMovie Review The Fourth Kind is a disturbing and thought-provoking film that dares to merge the boundaries between fact and fiction. Unlike traditional alien-abduction movies, it presents itself through a unique hybrid format, combining dramatized reenactments with allegedly “real” archival footage and recorded interviews. This stylistic choice creates an atmosphere of authenticity and unease, pulling the viewer into a narrative that feels uncomfortably close to reality. Set in the isolated town of Nome, Alaska, the film follows psychologist Dr. Abigail Tyler as she attempts to understand a series of bizarre cases involving her... Read More |
 | NightbitchMovie Review When Motherhood Bites… Literally If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if maternal frustration merged with animal instinct and a pinch of suburban werewolf lore, Nightbitch is the cinematic answer you never knew you needed. Rachel—played by Amy Adams, who finally seems to be enjoying not being liked (not even by herself)—is a stay-at-home mom who, somewhere between diapers and organic carrot purée, begins to suspect she’s turning into a dog. Yes, a dog. Literally. But make it fashion. The film—based on Rachel Yoder’s novel—is a surreal, furious manifesto on modern motherhood, swaying between domestic... Read More |
 | PossessionMovie Review Horror cinema is full of films considered "cursed", initially censored or banned, but then become true cult films. This is the case of Possession, a film that at the time left even the most expert critics speechless. Difficult to classify, Possession is still a horror film: there are violent scenes, lots of fake blood, a monstrous creature and, above all, the representation of Evil in all its power. But it is also a much more complex film than the classics of the genre. In 1981, Żuławski was already an established director. The film begins by telling, with obsessive and repetitive tones, the crisis of a couple,... Read More |
 | CubeMovie Review I couldn't wait to talk about this extraordinary Canadian film, which I consider without hesitation one of the best horror films of all time, so much so that it is in my personal top 5 of the genre. The director, Vincenzo Natali, is often unfairly underrated, but with Cube he has demonstrated a visionary talent that deserves full recognition. This is his first feature film, the film that made him a household name, and despite an extremely low budget (around $350,000), it manages to give the impression of a much more ambitious and refined work than one might expect. Its strength lies in a simple but incredibly effective... Read More |
 | MidsommarMovie Review This atypical Horror takes place in a bucolic and sunny setting, which systematically overturns all the canons of the genre, while we seem to simply watch a dramatic story we enter a world outside the world... Where folklore turns into grotesque and unexpected splatter scenes hit you like punches in the stomach, all seasoned with a ferocious humor. |
