Overlord — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on February 11, 2019 PermalinkOverlord
by Julius AveryBack in 2017, when I’d first heard of J.J. Abrams’ Overlord project, it was rumored to be another film in the Cloverfield franchise. This of course excited me, but earlier this year those rumors were dispelled, and it was revealed that this was a stand-alone film and would be completely unrelated. Read More…

Await Further Instructions — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on February 11, 2019 PermalinkAwait Further Instructions
by Johnny KevorkianAwait Further Instructions is a British sci-fi horror flick that’s great to watch this time of year as the Holidays are in full swing. A small family get together on Christmas leads to paranoia and mayhem when in the middle of the night they find themselves trapped inside their own home and just the television set to give them guidance.

Patient Zero — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on February 11, 2019 PermalinkPatient Zero
by Stefan RuzowitzkyWith a cast that includes Natalie Dormer, Stanley Tucci, Matt Smith, and Clive Standen (just to name a few), one would think that the post-apocalyptic Patient Zero would be a homerun flick. The trailer was on point and the synopsis reads great, but one would be wrong in assuming that this film was anything but trash. Read More…

The Night Eats The World — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on December 4, 2018 PermalinkThe Night Eats The World
by Dominique RocherI really don’t need to explain how much I love the post-apocalyptic subgenre of horror, just like I don’t need to go into detail about how much I love zombies despite the saturation in the genre. Read More…

The Endless — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on December 4, 2018 PermalinkThe Endless
by Justin Benson, Aaron MoorheadWhen I first began watching The Endless, I have to say I didn’t know much about it. I knew it was a film with some supernatural elements and there was going to be a cult involved, so it definitely caught my interest off the bat. Read More…

Upgrade — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on December 4, 2018 PermalinkUpgrade
by Leigh WhannellOn the long list of things that I enjoy lie technology, futurism, and AI. Also on that list are those three aforementioned things gone horribly wrong. Leigh Whannell, whom everyone knows I am a big fan of, delivered a little gem called Upgrade that I absolutely did not think would be as good as it was. Read More…

Extinction — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on October 30, 2018 PermalinkExtinction
by Ben YoungExtinction is a recent Netflix release in its (mostly lackluster) line of original films. Another review I did the week I originally wrote this review was also a Netflix original, so make sure and go check out that one. However, I’m not here to talk about Tau, I’m here to talk about what I thought of this new Michael Peña movie. Read More…

Tau — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on October 30, 2018 PermalinkTau
by Federico D’AlessandroKidnapping movies are always fun. Throw in a little science fiction and you should get something awesome. Sadly, I can’t call Tau an awesome film. Even with all the right ingredients, sometimes the Netflix Original cake doesn’t taste how you wanted it to in the end. Read More…

The First Purge — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on August 2, 2018 PermalinkThe First Purge
by Gerard McMurrayIt’s no secret that I’m a major fan of The Purge franchise. Needless to say, I was super stoked to see the latest installment in the series, a prequel entitled The First Purge. I know, super unique. All kidding aside, though, I really kept my expectations at midlevel for this one so that I a) wasn’t disappointed and b) might be pleasantly surprised. Read More…

Inside — Horror Movie Review
by typeitordie@gmail.com on August 2, 2018 PermalinkInside
by Miguel Angel VivasI don’t know what it is about foreign horror films that make people think they need to be remade. Is it because people are too lazy to read subtitles? Is it because people are annoying and just feel the need to take a good thing and make it bad? Probably both. Read More…
