We Summon The Darkness — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on September 21, 2020 PermalinkWe Summon The Darknessby Marc Meyers

You Should Have Left — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on July 22, 2020 PermalinkYou Should Have Leftby David Koepp
Set in the beautiful Welsh countryside, You Should Have Left is a movie that, in my opinion, you should probably leave unwatched.
