Episode 197 – The Monkey (2025)



While not up to the standards of Longlegs, with some pacing issues and overly-quirky side characters, overall The Monkey is a rollicking good time, with four rock-solid performances at its center.

Episode 172 – Tarot (2024)



This is pretty bottom-of-the-barrel, disposable stuff. When the movies coming to mind are Wish Upon, Countdown, and Imaginary, that’s a very bad sign.

Episode 156 – Talk to Me



Despite being well-made and periodically effective, Danny and Michael Philippou’s film left us cold. We wouldn’t mind seeing the hand come back, though.

Episode 132 – Hellraiser (2022)



David Bruckner’s reboot of the 80s horror staple is a little too rigid, a little too sanitized… and frankly, just doesn’t raise all that much hell. But Jamie Clayton and Odessa A’zion are terrific.

Episode 63 – Death of Me



Death of Me adds a distinctly undistinguished new entry to the ethically fraught “scary foreigners” subgenre.

Episode 49 – Polaroid



Lars Klevberg adapts his popular short film into a woefully underdeveloped (HAH!) time-waster of a feature film.
