Imagine a grown up Tracy Flick who tires of the cut throat world of politics and decides to trade that life in for one of literally cutting throats. That’s the main hook and sole bit of pleasure one can find in Navin Ramaswaran’s POOR AGNES, which just made...
Based off a script he co wrote with Hardware’s Richard Stanley, Norbert Keil’s REPLACE, is a meditative and often nasty work of exquisite blend of science fiction and body horror. Wih influences ranging from Cronenberg to Barker are on display throughout the film and it’s held together by...
Picture this. You’re a young, beautiful millennial just hanging out poolside on a lazy summer afternoon with friends. Fresh out of Bud Light, in need of giving smashing your genitals against someone else’s genital a brief respite lest they bruise from over exertion and having smoked as much...
We had a chance to check out Tent Hagga’s pulpy, white trash noir 68 KILL this past spring at the Boston Underground film Festival and goddamn if it isn’t the most banana pants thing we’ve seen all year (review). Just about every frame of film oozes sex, carnage, violence, bloodshed...
One of the last terrific found footage films, and a title that captures the spirit of Halloween is getting a sequel. THE HOUSES THAT OCTOBER BUILT 2 reunites the team behind the first film. Shot in what seems to be entirely in secret, the film won’t make fans wait...
Holy cow. Ask any horror fan for a list of the best films to somehow never get a release date and the Dowdle Brothers (Devil, Quarantine) debut effort THE POUGHKEEPSIE TAPES will inevitably sit near the top of the list. A decade after it’s completion in 2007, the film sat in...

For my money there’s no better film festival in the world than Montreal’s Fantasia International Film Fest. The festivities last almost a month, with hundreds of feature and short films sharing the spotlight. It’s a massive undertaking that’s met with amazing crowds and it’s a true treat to attend. Horror,...
Last week the Alamo Drafthouse announced a very cool thing. With anticipation high for Patty Jenkins’ Wonder Woman, the iconic cinema chain would host a special, female audience only screening of the movie. Tickets for the event sold out minutes after they went on sale, so more screenings...
When it comes to memorable seasonal horror movies, the Christmas season gives Halloween a run for its money. From Black Christmas to Gremlins to Krampus, glad tidings often give way to ignoble stabbings. Pretty soon the fine folks over at WELL GO USA will bring another classic to...
