Filmmakers leaned into the emotional stakes and musicality of being human. Join me as I count down my twenty five favorite films of the year! Honorable Mentions These ones … Continue reading My Favorite Films of 2025
Film Review: We Bury the Dead
★★★★ The Walking Dead single-handedly revitalized the zombie subgenre of horror in the 2010s, but since then, many of them have felt a bit copy and paste. Rarely do we see a post-apocalyptic story that either changes the game, or feels different enough from what came before to leave its own unique stamp. Enter: We … Continue reading Film Review: We Bury the Dead

Film Review: Silent Night, Deadly Night
★★★★★ Christmas and horror are not exactly synonymous, and yet holiday genre flicks have become their own distinct category in the wake of 1974's Black Christmas. One of the most infamous, having been pulled from theaters during its original run, was 1984's Silent Night, Deadly Night. In a most unexpected turn of events, that twink-turned-killer-Santa … Continue reading Film Review: Silent Night, Deadly Night
Film Review: The Carpenter’s Son
★★ Depending on one's familiarity with religious texts, perhaps the claims of The Carpenter's Son being based on the Infancy Gospel of Thomas will be significant. For this viewer, that meant very little; however, following the storyline comes relatively easy when pared down to the basic elements. This is a version of the traditional story … Continue reading Film Review: The Carpenter’s Son
TV Review: The Creep Tapes – Season 2
After the breakout success of horror icon Peachfuzz on the small screen, Patrick Brice and Mark Duplass are back for seconds in Shudder's compelling slice of found footage mayhem. Similar to its debut season, The Creep Tapes finds the mysterious wolf-mask-obsessive "Josef" toying with an array of seemingly doomed victims, working his way through an … Continue reading TV Review: The Creep Tapes – Season 2

TV Review: It: Welcome to Derry
While visionary author Stephen King has more masterpieces under his belt than the average person, for this avid reader, none have hit quite the same threshold as his seminal classic, It. Forged in the sewers of fictional Maine town Derry and surged with the grimy DNA of an extraterrestrial cosmic horror, It left its mark … Continue reading TV Review: It: Welcome to Derry
Brooklyn Horror 2025: Violence
★★★★ Rohan Campbell may be one of the most underrated young actors in the modern horror sphere, cementing a scream king status with each new genre notch on his belt. Violence only entered my orbit when I spotted Campbell among the cast. Later this year, he has another major horror franchise release incoming with a … Continue reading Brooklyn Horror 2025: Violence
Brooklyn Horror 2025: Every Heavy Thing
★★★★ Now this one was a pleasant surprise. My only familiarity with writer/director Mickey Reece was 2021's genre oddity Agnes, a film that featured a strange gear shift to the narrative that frankly did not sit very well with me. Whilst Every Heavy Thing certainly had a more compelling hook to it than Agnes, it … Continue reading Brooklyn Horror 2025: Every Heavy Thing
