Sharknado 2: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Enjoy the Stupidity

There are two kinds of horror fans in this world; those who can turn off their brains long enough to enjoy Syfy original movies, and those who refuse to back down on their stance that they’re the bane of the horror genre. Never has this been clearer to me than last night, which of course

Movie Review: Call Girl of Cthulhu

There’s nothing I love more than Kickstarter success stories, particularly when it comes to horror films. Though being beaten over the head with Kickstarter funds admittedly gets a little annoying sometimes, it’s nevertheless awesome to see a young filmmaker use the platform to make a movie he otherwise wouldn’t have been able to, which is

Live or Die, Make Your Choice: My Ten Most Memorable Saw Traps

I’ve always believed there is a quite unique and special story running through the Saw movies that was constantly fighting to get out. The first two or three films got close to making that story happen (especially the original), but the longer the series continued the more it got twisted and replaced by a large
