The Devil You Know: Inside the Mind of Todd McFarlane (2001) 78/100 EDIT “What kid wouldn't want to grow up to be a multi-millionaire, one who's earned their fame and fortune through the creation of comic books, movies, video games, and toys?” – Apollo Guide Nov 5, 2024 Full Review The Learning Curve (1999) 13% 3.5/5 EDIT “One of the cooler things about being required to watch lots of movies "sight unseen" is that occasionally something unexpectedly entertaining pops up.” – eFilmCritic.com May 29, 2024 Full Review Little Deaths (2011) 100% 3.5/5 EDIT “Three dark horror tales that deal with human sexuality in some deeply unpleasant ways.” – FEARnet Sep 13, 2023 Full Review My Heart Can't Beat Unless You Tell It To (2020) 98% EDIT “worth a look if, like me, you enjoy gloomy "drama" movies that use the horror genre in subtle, humanistic ways.” – Thrillist Aug 18, 2021 Full Review Blood Red Sky (2021) 81% EDIT “Runs perhaps a bit too long for its own good, but the flick eventually benefits from nice pacing and several kinetic set pieces.” – Thrillist Aug 18, 2021 Full Review Old (2021) 50% EDIT “Doesn't rank among M. Night's finest, but has enough interesting ideas, compelling characters, and disturbing moments to keep genre fans happy.” – Thrillist Aug 18, 2021 Full Review Kandisha (2020) 79% EDIT “a group of young women summon a seemingly invincible spirit of vengeance -- and the results are not pretty.” – Thrillist Aug 18, 2021 Full Review Superhost (2021) 85% EDIT “timely social media thriller benefits from a clever screenplay, a fantastically manic performance from Gracie Gillam, and a few nice shocks” – Thrillist Aug 18, 2021 Full Review The Forever Purge (2021) 48% EDIT “This time around we're asked what would happen if some of the annual "purgers" simply refused to honor the rules of engagement, which is pretty ironic in and of itself” – Thrillist Jul 12, 2021 Full Review Fear Street Part One: 1994 (2021) 84% EDIT “a fun, colorful slasher throwback that was clearly made by people who love the old classics” – Thrillist Jul 12, 2021 Full Review The Boy Behind the Door (2020) 97% EDIT “the beauty of this intense indie is in its palpable, sustained sense of suspense” – Thrillist Jul 12, 2021 Full Review Till Death (2021) 90% EDIT “thanks to a tight script, several solid moments of suspense, and a very strong lead performance from Megan Fox, this flick turns out to be an unexpected winner.” – Thrillist Jul 12, 2021 Full Review Son (2021) 79% EDIT “A devoted young mother is terrified to learn that her son has come down with a mysterious disease, but the source of the kid's ailments may be quite a bit more insidious than just a simple virus.” – Thrillist Jul 12, 2021 Full Review The Columnist (2020) 79% EDIT “This pitch-black horror comedy is equal parts timely social commentary and sly slasher flick.” – Thrillist Jun 24, 2021 Full Review Censor (2021) 89% EDIT “A clever and quietly unsettling thriller about a British film censor in the 1980s who thinks she sees her long-missing sister in a sleazy homemade horror flick” – Thrillist Jun 24, 2021 Full Review Werewolves Within (2021) 86% EDIT “Chock full of funny moments and just enough full-bore horror to keep the fans happy, this is one of the year's best genre surprises.” – Thrillist Jun 24, 2021 Full Review Agnes (2021) 68% EDIT “starts out as a somewhat traditional "possessed nun" story, but about halfway through it makes a sharp left turn and becomes a darkly compelling character study” – Thrillist Jun 24, 2021 Full Review The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021) 56% EDIT “It takes some skill to keep a franchise feeling fresh after this many entries, but Conjuring 3 handles the assignment well enough” – Thrillist Jun 24, 2021 Full Review The Superdeep (2020) 25% EDIT “It's nothing revolutionary in the plot department, but the setting, the tone, and the special effects combine to create a suitably unsettling creature feature.” – Thrillist Jun 16, 2021 Full Review A Quiet Place Part II (2021) 91% EDIT “We get a taste of what we loved in A Quiet Place, and we also get a compelling new hook to hang the franchise on. That's a good way to make a sequel.” – Thrillist Jun 7, 2021 Full Review For the Sake of Vicious (2020) 77% EDIT “...explodes into a non-stop cacophony of maniacally insane violence, revenge, rage, and carnage. Pure grindhouse goodness.” – Thrillist Jun 7, 2021 Full Review Come True (2020) 84% EDIT “A dense and intelligent piece of well-wrought sci-fi horror that takes a few big swings.” – Thrillist Jun 7, 2021 Full Review Gaia (2021) 84% EDIT “it's about a park ranger who travels deep into a foreboding forest, only to discover a "crazy" man and his young son -- but also something much scarier.” – Thrillist Jun 7, 2021 Full Review Sound of Violence (2021) 65% EDIT “Led by a fantastic lead performance, this novel, gritty little slasher throwback has a lot more on its mind than just mindless carnage.” – Thrillist Jun 7, 2021 Full Review Army Of The Dead (2021) 68% EDIT “The eclectic ensemble helps a whole lot, and the film offers a barrage of set pieces that are tough to resist.” – Thrillist Jun 4, 2021 Full Review
