“That goalie was pissed about something…” 12. Friday the 13th (2009) This isn’t exactly a hot take, but I have a problem with Hollywood’s addiction to rebooting movies. They never improve on the original and often detract from the charm that made the original a hit in the first place. The Friday the 13th remake […]
I’m flying solo this week! That means that I get to watch anything my little heart desires without having to hear any differing opinions. It’s a millennial’s dream! I’m reviewing the 1980s classic “The Return of the Living Dead,” the best piece of “Night of the Living Dead” fanfiction ever created. After Night of the […]
This week’s review will cover two films: The Ritual and Jungle; two seemingly unconnected films set on two distinct continents.

This entry was written by Jim. Mostly spoiler free. At least one of us read the book from which this movie was derived (spoiler: it was Katie). We were both excited to see this movie which was a bit of a blend of Sci-Fi and Horror. As Katie points out, it was truly “body horror” […]
Written by Katie I won’t bury the lede: I don’t care about the MCU. I found myself yawning and groaning at the Ant-Man and Venom previews today. I’m not planning on seeing any of the other films slated to come out in the near future, but when I saw the trailer for Black Panther, I […]
