Movie Review – Zombieland (2009)

Title: Zombieland (2009) Runtime: 88 minutes Director: Ruben Fleischer — Zombie films don’t get much better than Zombieland. With four incredible actors, a ridiculously funny script, and all the zombie gore you could hope for, it’s just about perfect. Like most zombie films, the story doesn’t take much setting up: something happens, and the dead…


Movie Review – Grace (2009)

Title: Grace (2009) Runtime: 85 minutes Director: Paul Solet — For an unknown horror film, I had read quite a bit about Grace, and, thus, I expected that I’d enjoy it a great deal. Unfortunately, I found it to be a bit too slowly paced, thought the acting was hit or miss, and found the…


Movie Review – Antichrist (2009)

Title: Antichrist (2009) Runtime: 108 minutes Director: Lars von Trier — There’s pre-Antichrist and post-Antichrist life, and everything I do from here on out can be considered post-Antichrist. This is – hyperbole aside – the most difficult movie I’ve ever sat through, and I’ve watched both The Life and Death of a Porno Gang and…


Movie Review – Bait (2012)

Title: Bait (2012) Runtime: 91 minutes Director: Kimble Rendall — What a genuine surprise Bait is. I rented this expecting cheesy 3D, bad dialogue, and some terrible CGI all being used to tell a lame story. Instead of the B-grade I expected, however, Bait is a film that legitimizes itself by combining a solid orchestral score…


Movie Review – A Serbian Film (2010)

Title: A Serbian Film (2010) Runtime: 102 minutes (unrated US version), 104 minutes (uncut version) Director: Srdjan Spasojevic — The obscene amount of hype surrounding A Serbian Film has been impossible to ignore for the last year in the horror scene. The reaction has been mixed critically, but virtually everyone who has seen the film…


Movie Review – I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006)

Title: I’ll Always Know What You Did Last Summer (2006) Runtime: 92 minutes Director: Sylvain White — That’s right, for better or worse, the Last Summer franchise was turned into a trilogy in 2006. Obviously most of the stars in the original two have moved on to bigger and better careers, so none of them…


Movie Review – Urban Legend (1998)

Title: Urban Legend (1998) Runtime: 99 minutes Director: Jamie Blanks — As most everyone will know, Scream made slasher films popular again in the mid-90s, and rest of the decade was filled with movies trying to capitalize on Scream‘s unexpected success. Enter Urban Legend. What’s so interesting to me about these 90s slasher films is,…
