Thriller
Gerald’s Game – Film Review
Gerald’s Game is a bone-chilling exercise in suspense and unease, directed masterfully by Mike Flanagan and featuring a truly phenomenal lead performance from Carla Gugino.
House on Haunted Hill – Film Review
House on Haunted Hill starts off strong before quickly turning into one of the most outrageously dumb and unintentionally hilarious horror films of all-time.
Mr. Harrigan’s Phone – Film Review
Mr. Harrigan’s Phone is a bold and daring horror film featuring strong performances, but it sadly lacks bite and is disappointingly predictable and by-the-book.
The Wicker Man – Film Review
The Wicker Man is an unintentionally hilarious horror film thanks to a poor script from Neil LaBute, that’s made even more hysterical due to Nicolas Cage’s wild performance.
Knock Knock – Film Review
Knock Knock comes equipped with a strong Keanu Reeves performance, but is an otherwise outrageously awful horror film with no grip or bite.
Don’t Worry Darling – Film Review
With an extremely convoluted and deeply uninspired story, Don’t Worry Darling is the biggest disappointment of the year, even if Florence Pugh delivers a phenomenal lead performance.
The Invitation – Film Review
The Invitation is a remarkably bland and uninspired horror film with a story that goes absolutely nowhere, despite looking terrific visually and featuring some solid performances.
Pearl – Film Review
Pearl is a blood-soaked, white-knuckling horror drama with incredible character work, a razor-sharp script from Ti West, and a genuinely masterful lead performance from Mia Goth.
Emily the Criminal – Film Review
Aubrey Plaza delivers an award-worthy performance in Emily the Criminal – an excellently gripping and intense crime thriller written and directed wonderfully by John Patton Ford.
The Bad Seed Returns – Film Review
The Bad Seed Returns has some thrills sprinkled throughout and features a killer Mckenna Grace performance, but it’s ultimately a disappointingly predictable and familiar horror drama.
