One of the biggest thrills of spooky season was having the pleasure of sitting down over Zoom with the two leads of horror/comedy, The Loneliest Boy in the World! Max Harwood and Hero Fiennes Tiffin are two of our favorite people to have interviewed so far! Join us as we dig deep into the cemetery … Continue reading Interview: Actors Max Harwood and Hero Fiennes Tiffin
TV Review: Big Mouth – Season 6
America’s favorite extra-raunchy animated series is back with a vengeance in season six of Big Mouth! I, for one, consider this to be Netflix’s second-best animated outing, after the masterful Bojack Horseman. Unlike that show, Big Mouth does not give an iota of care to its big dramatic scenes; this series has always leaned heavily … Continue reading TV Review: Big Mouth – Season 6

Brooklyn Horror 2022: Terror Train
★★★ Maybe no one really asked for a remake to 1980’s seminal Jamie Lee Curtis post-Halloween horror classic, Terror Train, but it has arrived anyway just in time for spooky season courtesy of Tubi! Yes, the streamer infamous for its sheer breadth of horror titles and various other free streaming options now has a notable … Continue reading Brooklyn Horror 2022: Terror Train
Film Review: The School for Good and Evil
★★★★ For years, I have been waiting for a new fantasy series that would fill the void of Harry Potter. It may not be Hogwarts, but The School for Good and Evil sure gets the job done! Focusing on friendship and essentially boiling down to “never judge a book by its cover,” this is the … Continue reading Film Review: The School for Good and Evil
NewFest 2022: Wendell & Wild
★★★★ As a lifelong fan of director Henry Selick’s work, I was excited for his newest creation, Wendell & Wild, from the second it was announced. Selick’s career has had a stunning trajectory, from beloved cult classics (The Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline) to unsung gems (Monkeybone, James and the Giant Peach). One visionary creator collaborates … Continue reading NewFest 2022: Wendell & Wild
Brooklyn Horror 2022: Christmas Bloody Christmas
★★★★ Who doesn’t love a good Christmas horror movie? My personal favorites are 2006’s Black Christmas and Krampus, both of which I have on a yearly rotation during the holidays. Now I may finally have a third to add to my list! For what was originally pitched as a remake to Silent Night, Deadly Night, … Continue reading Brooklyn Horror 2022: Christmas Bloody Christmas
Film Review: Matriarch
★★ Focusing primarily on body horror and cult-esque mania, Matriarch feels like it is trying too hard at times. Though it can frequently come off as pretentious, I was actually into some of the freakier elements. For much of the runtime, we aren’t quite positive as to why Laura (Jemima Rooper, Flowers in the Attic: … Continue reading Film Review: Matriarch
Brooklyn Horror 2022: Influencer
★★★★ As unexpectedly appearing as they often do, I seem to have discovered a new horror/thriller that neatly slides into one of my favorite unsung subgenres: obsessive psycho bitch. Influencer, from Spiral director Kurtis David Harder and co-writer Tesh Gutti, feels like a modern day Single White Female told through a strikingly feminine lens. I … Continue reading Brooklyn Horror 2022: Influencer
NewFest 2022: Please Baby Please
★★★ I cannot stress enough how much I was really not a fan of director Amanda Kramer’s last film, Give Me Pity!, and its oddball mock-style television format. Color me surprised then that Kramer’s second movie, the fantastically bizarre Please Baby Please, is such an intriguing treat. With lead performances from Andrea Riseborough (2020’s The … Continue reading NewFest 2022: Please Baby Please
