Nobody puts baillee in the corner

This is my first watch of Banshee Chapter, and I really dug it. Is it strictly found footage? No, but I think there’s enough sprinkled in there for it to count. I’m also actually really impressed how real this movie feels. James and Anne are super relatable characters, and I was emotionally invested from the…

Dead End (2003) is a prime example of how you can do a lot with a little. Is it a perfect horror movie? No, but it’s a fun time, and I think the story’s solid. (Just keep in mind that the writing is outdated at times because it’s almost 25 years old). Plus, I’ll never…

Today’s prompt was a toughie because, as a horror movie girlie, I tend to watch it all. So, I don’t really have a “least-favorite” franchise; it’s more that I care about some franchises more than others. I’ve seen all the Paranormal Activity movies, and I definitely don’t mind them. I really dig the first and…

As a child of the 90s, I grew up watching Jumanji on repeat, so I’ve always been a fan of board game horror and would love to see more of it. I think that’s why I have a soft spot for Open Graves. It’s not a movie I watch *that* often, but I always enjoy…

Society is one of my faves because it checks all the boxes: Body horror? ✅ 80s vibes? ✅ Commentary on the perverse nature of the elite? ✅ So with all those forces combined, it’s a movie I tend to revisit, “shunting” scene and all. So, if you love Society the same way I do, here…

If you haven’t had the pleasure of watching the Tori Spelling classic, Death of a Cheerleader (aka A Friend to Die For), I can’t recommend it enough.  Part Lifetime movie, part unhinged masterpiece, it’s the perfect watch for a Sunday afternoon (or if you need a good movie to riff on, à MST3K).  So if you’re looking…

If you know me at all, you know Obsession is one of my favorite movies of the year, and I’ve probably talked your ear off about it at some point; it’s the kind of movie I want to pick apart and analyze down to its bones.  But, fortunately for all of you, I won’t be writing a…

It may come as no surprise to any of you that I have a tendency to watch movies on dates, specifically first dates.  And Jason X is one of my go-tos.  No, seriously.  It reinforces that I’m a horror fan, but it also has the perfect amount of camp (at one point, literally) so that even non-horror…

Daniel Isn’t Real has a special place in my heart because it’s one of the first movies I ever wrote about for Hyperreal Film Club. I know the whole “antagonist not being real” trope has been played out, to an extent, but I think Daniel Isn’t Real does it well and brings some fresh ideas into the mix. …

If you know me at all, you know I’m an absolute sucker for body horror. I don’t know what it is, but I’ve worshiped at the altars of the likes of Cronenberg and Yuzna since adolescence. And The Fly is definitely one of the biggest reasons why; it was my gateway body horror movie.  So today, to…
