An amazing continuation to one of the best shows ever made. Twin Peaks: The Return picks up 25 years after the masterpiece that is Twin Peaks and furthers the story of Agent Dale Cooper and the strange Northwestern town of Twin Peaks. Will there finally be the conclusion that fans have been waiting two and a half decades for?
Nope....and somehow that's ok. This is basically an 18hr movie that ends with another cliffhanger. A tremendous feat that will be…

The Last Drive-In With Joe Bob Briggs - Season 2 - Episode 4 - Film 2
One Cut of the Dead is a horror-comedy student project that got picked up by a distributor and became a big success. A crew filming a zombie movie is interrupted by a 'real' zombie outbreak.
One thing I dread is having to read subtitles when I'm not planning to watch a subtitle movie. I like to multitask and play video games while I watch…
"This movie is arthouse pretentious shit" -David Clayton
David is correct but I still like it.

The veteran tends the lamp at night time and the rookie busts his ass with all of the maintenance tasks in the day time. They slowly start to lose their grip on sanity but…
Saturday Night Shorts: Film 81
I've reviewed eighty short films for my Saturday Night Shorts project thus far, and most of them haven't been posted on a Saturday because I tend to forget. They're far more likely to be Monday Morning Shorts, but this is the first time that I didn't remember until Thursday.
Ah well, better late than never. Thursday Morning Short it is.
After watching Adult Swim Yule Log, also known as The Fireplace last week, I checked…
The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs - Season 3 - Episode 7 - Film 1
I am almost always multitasking and playing a video game while watching a film so I need English. This film is playing on five streaming services right now but four of them are the subtitled version. Enter the immortal TUBI.TV with the strong dubbed version and now I can finally catch something I've been wanting to review for a long time.
A father and…

After the death of the matriarch of the family, strange things begin to happen around the Graham family. When an untimely death occurs, things fall into chaos as a sinister family secret threatens to destroy them all.

Early to rise and early to bed makes a man healthy, wealthy, and dead. " - James Thurber
After watching the abomination known as Room 237, a documentary that claims to be about The Shining but actually sucks basketballs through garden hoses, I needed to feel better. I needed a documentary about anything in my beloved horror genre that doesn't suck basketballs through garden hoses.
Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy was the perfect film to fill that gap.…
What begins as a seemingly normal morning descends into chaos when an tremendous reptilian creature from the sea makes it's way on land on the island of Japan. The destruction that follows may devastate a generation, but mankind may be just as dangerous.
After watching Godzilla: Minus Zero and loving it a few days ago I've been on a bit of a Godzilla kick and that led me to finally finding an English dubbed version of Shin Godzilla on The…

Some say there's a witch in the woods beyond the farm and the family have found themselves targets of her wrath.
The Witch serves as the feature…
4:23:44. Yes this documentary is THAT long.
In Search of Darkness is a one stop shop for snippets of 1980s horror movie information, delivered by some of the biggest names in the genre. There are tons of actors, directors, film crew, FX artists, and composers interviewed for this but I was shocked at the absence of one man who is usually the first guy to do these sort of things. Bruce Campbell. Where are ya, Bruce?
Although I consider myself…
Amazon Prime Video, thank you for delivering Ari Aster's latest work of art to my eyes and brain. Hereditary was my favorite horror films of the past few years and The Strange Thing About The Johnsons is one of my favorite shorts of all time. It's because of this that Midsommar was on my must see list and it definitely did not disappoint.
Our main character Dani is the women crying on the cover art for this film, and it…
