Recent reviews

Sick of horror movies that just don’t deliver? I get it. Dive into our recent reviews, where I put each film on the chopping block to see if it makes the cut. Grab your popcorn, turn off the lights, and join me as I hack away at the best and worst of horror cinema.

I Trapped The Devil (2019)

Rating: 2/5 • Holiday horror meets creeping dread in "I Trapped the Devil"—it’s unnerving, sure, but it doesn’t quite unwrap the payoff.

It's A Wonderful Knife (2023)

Rating: 2/5 • A slasher with holiday spirit but a little too much eggnog in its execution.

Black Christmas (1974)

Rating: 3/5 • A chilling classic that haunts you with questions—but leaves you wanting answers.
