Leviticus
(2026)
|
Matt Donato
|
Familiarity isn’t an instant negative, as Leviticus proves; it’s all about how filmmakers put their unique spin on reusable templates.

Buddy

It takes our snuggliest memories and feeds them through a meat grinder, never playing it safe or caring about the ages of those in danger.

Mum, I'm Alien Pregnant
(2026)
|
Matt Donato
|
It's scrappy—both a testament to its ingenuity and, at times, a comment about what the effects cannot achieve—but even more importantly, it's a goofy and gag-worthy midnighter.

Return to Silent Hill
(2026)
|
Matt Donato
|
Between the poor performances, dismally edited storytelling, and fumbled fright-night entertainment, Return to Silent Hill is anything but a warm welcome home for horror movie and video game fans.

Misery
(1990)
|
Steph Howard
|
Even though Misery moves slowly, it's easy to get wrapped up in Annie's world, cowering and wondering what comes next. Fanaticism combined with instability is a terrible mix for Paul Sheldon, but perfect for keeping viewers on the edge of their seats.

Five Nights at Freddy's 2
(2025)
|
Amelia Emberwing
|
Game creator Scott Cawthon delivers one of the sloppier screenplays of the year, relying on video game logic to propel the film’s narrative and displaying an utter lack of faith in the intelligence of his young viewers.

Piranha II: The Spawning
(1981)

I have heard for years about what a calamity Piranha II is, but had never actually seen it prior to this review, and while I wouldn’t count it among the biggest turkeys of all time, it’s a pretty big mess.

The cast is aces, the laughs are there, but best of all, Wake Up Dead Man charts its own course through murk and malcontent ... a wonderfully gloomy Benoit Blanc caper.

Fans of the first Black Phone will be getting a scary surprise this October. Black Phone 2 can easily be placed on the same pedestal as the first film. There are just as many frights, and, as nightmarish as The Grabber is, it’s a nightmare worth visiting.
