Kiss Of The Damned Reivew
Don't you just hate when you unknowingly bring a vampire home to spend the night? One minute you're using the phrase "Oh god" as a statement of exclamatory pleasure, and the next minute you're calling out God's name in a fit of religious protection. Hope you brought your garlic flavored condoms, Pope blessed body chocolate, and pure silver crafted - um...I mean...Kiss Of The Damned, right, this is a movie review, not some sick erotic Dracula fan fiction. I'll save that article for a rainy day.

10 Reasons Why The Walking Dead Comic Is Better Than The TV Show
I know what you're thinking - "Great, here's another pretentious comic-loving hipster whining about how AMC is soiling the name of his beloved Walking Dead. Kirkman already stated he views the TV show as a way to explore his existing story with different choices, so you have nothing to complain about. They're completely separate entities. Go back into your basement where you live with your Mom and cry about one of your favorite comic book properties becoming mainstream, wiping the tears away with fingers covered in Cheese-Doodle residue. We get it, you liked The Walking Dead before it was cool, but nobody cares you poor attention-seeking bastard."

Scary Movie 5 Review
I can't believe I'm about to waste another hour of my life writing about Scary Movie 5 after Malcolm D. Lee's expectedly godawful "spoof" movie just stole the last hour and a half of my day, but in the spirit of pumping one more negative review out to the public so they can truly understand what a witless, hollow, immature piece of garbage this film is, here it goes.

Aftershock Review
Why can't I learn from my own mistakes - whatever Eli Roth creates/directs himself is genius. Cabin Fever, Hostel, his Thanksgiving themed Grindhouse trailer, I just can't get enough of his work. Whatever he produces and presents though doesn't have the same track record for some reason. While the kung-fu B-Movie loving side of me admittedly dug The Man With The Iron Fists, The Last Exorcism didn't strike my found footage fancy, and The Last Exorcism Part II I wish was never made. So how did Nicolás López's natural disaster film Aftershock fare with Roth's seal of approval? Ugh, here we go again.

Nato And Remy’s Last Stand: Why Fede Alvarez’s Evil Dead Bitch-Slapped Horror
With gasps and shudders and clenched fists curled up tight in the pockets of my hoody, the Evil Dead remake reminded me in one blinding flash why I adore the horror genre. It's down right scary, unsettling, relentless, and brutal. It's also engaging, interesting, incredibly well shot, and perfectly executed (I'll take "poor word play" for 100, Alex). Alvarez's film was a painstakingly crafted love letter to the original and fans of the original, and it also did something most people might have missed if they left early: it bridged the original series with the new series in an attempt to combine them both further down the road. How f*cking awesome is that? So now, for your reading pleasure, Matt and I will discuss some of the things that really stood out to us regarding this awesome reboot. Awesome and reboot are two words we never use next to each other, so you should be aware how big a moment this is for horror.

To The Wonder Review
Terrence Malick is nothing short of an artist - there is no denying that. He shoots with grace, style, class, whimsy, and is always able to achieve aesthetic beauty like Lars Von Trier or any comparably artsy filmmaker, making something symphonically endearing like moving poetry. His last film, The Tree Of Life, was a perfect example of Malik's eye for grandiose visuals, but also a perfect example of why people either adore or despise his work. His latest film, To The Wonder, continues Malick's "love me or hate me" mentality with the same expected pieces, but unfortunately backs itself with a much weaker effort this time around.

Roundtable Interview With Robert Redford On The Company You Keep
Robert Redford is a man known around Hollywood for doing his own thing, marching to the beat of his own drum so to say, and he's continued that mentality with his brand new movie The Company You Keep. Detailing the life of a former Weather Underground activist who is on the run from the FBI, Redford's newest directorial effort is just as intelligently crafted as usual, paying proper attention to historical details and opinions, and Redford also delivers a now typical fantastic performance serving as the film's lead character.

Eddie: The Sleepwalking Cannibal Review
When I sleepwalk, I just raid the refrigerator for some late-night bad decisions, usually fried and greasy, but imagine if in your magical dream-state you turned into a bloodthirsty cannibal who tore people limb from limb? Couldn't you just picture the utter horror? If you answered that question "No," let out a gasp of relief because you're a normal person who doesn't know the taste of human flesh. If you answered that questions "Yes" though, you might want to report yourself to the local authorities for being stark-raving mad. Either that, or you just watched Eddie: The Sleepwalking Cannibal - hopefully the latter.

Evil Dead Review
The wait is over Deadites - April 5th is finally here. For some it's been a grueling wait, sitting anxiously as every blood-soaked image and awe-inspiring trailer teased what could possibly be a savior of the current remake fad, while others sat grumpily, scoffing at even the notion that Fede Alvarez's Evil Dead could top what's revered as one of the most famous cult-classics in horror history. If you read any of my news coverage or features regarding the film, you'd know I was one of the outspoken optimists who had no problem hiding his blatant excitement for everything Alvarez was laying down, so now the question is posed - was all the hype worth it?

Stitches Review
I can't wait until I one day own a production company that gives underground and foreign horror films a proper US wide release, but until then I'm going to sound like a bitchy, hipster, broken record complaining how mainstream horror is making a mockery of the genre right now and so many "dangerous" gems get straight to Blu-Ray/VOD releases. A little Irish release named Stitches is the latest movie I've been forced to watch on my laptop after an iTunes rent, only to witness a full-blown horror/comedy epic that demands a proper cinematic viewing (super-comfy sofa, a large TV in the range of 50" or so, an ultra-comfy blanket). How the f#ck was I forced to watch The Last Exorcism Part II in theaters, yet could barely find a rentable version of Stitches?!
