“AHS: NYC” Review – “Bad Fortune” and “The Body” Are This Season’s Best Episodes So Far

Daniel Kurland AHS, AHS: New York City, AHS: NYC, American Horror Story, Reviews, Ryan Murphy, TV

AHS: NYC delivers its best episodes of the season through clever plotting and supernatural turns that set up the ensuing bloodshed. “This is entertainment, honey.” There’s some natural level of understanding and showmanship when it comes to psychics and tarot readers. By and large, customers understand that these practices aren’t genuinely supernatural, but they continue […]

‘Resident Evil Village: The Winters’ Expansion’ Review – How the Update Elevates the Game to New Heights

Reyna Cervantes Resident Evil Village, Reviews, Video Games

When I reviewed Resident Evil Village back in 2021 (read that here), I called it a “greatest hits of the franchise while pushing it forward into new directions.” With the release of the long awaited Winters’ Expansion DLC, I’m confident in saying that Capcom has delivered the goods once again with three brand new experiences […]

“Chucky” Season 2 Review – Episode 5 Commits “Doll on Doll” Violence While Dropping Bombshells

Meagan Navarro Chucky, Don Mancini, Reviews, TV

The last episode of Don Mancini’s “Chucky” opened the floodgates of plot development in the most unhinged way. Nica (Fiona Dourif) made a triumphant escape with the help of Glenda (Lachlan Watson) and a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it reveal of Kyle (Christine Elise) at the wheel. “Doll on Doll” prolongs revealing Nica’s whereabouts, instead focusing on the aftermath with Tiffany (Jennifer Tilly) […]

Noah Levine Reviews, The Simpsons, Treehouse of Horror XXXIII, TV

It’s that time of the year again where “The Simpsons” gets spooky. “Treehouse of Horror XXXIII” premiered this past Sunday night and with it came three spin-tingling tales set within the world of the longest-running animated sitcom.  First up, comes a segment clearly inspired by the talented Jennifer Kent’s The Babadook. Taking on a new […]

‘A Party to Die For’ Review – Final “Terror on Tubi” Original Isn’t All That Original or Thrilling

Paul Lê A Party to Die For, Movies, Nanea Miyata, Reviews, Terror on Tubi, Tubi

Tubi’s October event “Terror on Tubi” comes to a close with one last new movie, though after watching A Party to Die For, you’ll likely feel underwhelmed. Maybe even misled. Of all the Tubi Originals to premiere during this sacred month of scares, Nanea Miyata‘s is the most removed from the horror genre, largely because […]

‘Prey for the Devil’ Review – This Possession Horror Movie Is in Need of an Exorcist

Meagan Navarro Daniel Stamm, Movies, Prey for the Devil, Reviews

A tale as old as time; a Catholic church representative must battle their inner demons to save the soul of a possessed child. Prey for the Devil attempts to retell this tired story with the gimmick of an aspiring female exorcist but never manages to pull together a narrative cohesive or scary enough to rise above a […]

“AHS: NYC” Review – “Smoke Signals” and “Black Out” Contaminate the Body and Mind

Daniel Kurland AHS, AHS: NYC, American Horror Story, American Horror Story: New York City, Reviews, Ryan Murphy, TV

More corpses and police ignorance force Gino to take measures into his own hands, but darkness looms and infection spreads in AHS: NYC’s latest. “Protect and fucking serve.” Shame is an all-consuming emotion that doesn’t discriminate in the same way that a serial killer does with its victims or police do with their casework. Everyone […]

‘Gotham Knights’ Review – Bat-Fantasies Are Fulfilled in Frustrating Gameplay Experience

Reyna Cervantes Gotham Knights, Reviews, Video Games

It’s interesting that Gotham Knights, the new Bat-Family game from Warner Bros. Montreal, opens with Batman’s death as the main characters of the game are grappling with the legacy he leaves behind and struggling with where to go next. In many ways the development and resulting game are put in the same situation living in […]

“Chucky” Season 2 Review – Episode 4 Throws a Meta Murder Party

Meagan Navarro Chucky, Don Mancini, Jennifer Tilly, Reviews, TV

The latest episode of Don Mancini’s “Chucky” begins with a brief recap of Seed of Chucky that signals a narrative shift. “Death on Denial” temporarily leaves behind the Catholic boarding school setting to pick up where we left off with Tiffany (Jennifer Tilly) cleaning up after a murder just as children Glen and Glenda (both played by Lachlan Watson) arrive. Episode […]

‘Signalis’ Review – A Puzzle Box of a Survival Horror Game

Thomas Wilde Reviews, Signalis, Video Games

I should probably establish my biases up front: there was never much of a chance that I wouldn’t like Signalis. I’m a long-time survival horror nerd and it’s a deliberately old-school survival horror game. If you ever hear anyone ask who this game was made for, tell them it was me. It’s not at all […]

Guillermo del Toro joins the ranks of episodic genre anthology curators like Alfred Hitchcock and Rod Serling with his “Cabinet of Curiosities.” Del Toro assembles a Murderers’ Row of horror filmmakers for his limited anthology series, each story contained within his ornate oddities cabinet.
