Jigsaw — Horror Movie Review
Jigsaw
by Michael Spierig, Peter SpierigIt’s been several years since the Saw franchise has graced us with its presence during the Halloween season. When I’d first heard that the series was getting a reboot, I was ecstatic. Love it or hate it, you have to give it up to James Wan and Leigh Whannell for creating a unique and lovable serial killer for a new generation. Read More…

A Plague So Pleasant — Horror Movie Review
A Plague So Pleasant
by Benjamin Roberds, Jordan ReyesA Plague So Pleasant is a few years older, coming out in 2013, but I hadn’t really heard much buzz about it. It wasn’t until this past week when, browsing Amazon, I found it available to stream.
The plot synopsis piqued my interest immediately. Read More… -
Happy Death Day — Horror Movie Review
Happy Death Day
by Christopher LandonHappy Death Day is a fantastic horror comedy that throws back to Groudhog Day in more ways than one. There’s even an awesome scene at the end where one character brings up the Bill Murray film and our totally clueless main character, Tree (Jessica Rothe), has no idea what her friend is talking about.

Flatliners — Horror Movie Review
Flatliners
by Niels Arden OplevI was initially confused about whether the recent Flatliners release was a remake or a sequel. Seems the Internet is a bit confused as well because when I look it up there’s still much debate on the topic. After watching it, I’m going to go with remake since Kiefer Sutherland’s cameo was way too small and he clearly isn’t named Nelson. Read More…

Wish Upon

Alien: Covenant — Horror Movie Review
Alien: Covenant
by Ridley ScottWhile I could probably write a ten-page paper on why Ellen Ripley is one of the greatest characters of all time, this review needs to pertain to the new Alien film in the franchise, and sadly, Sigourney Weaver’s fabulous character has yet to exist in the prequel timeline. Read More…

Get Out — Horror Movie Review
Get Out
by Jordan PeeleGet Out is Jordan Peele’s directorial debut, and while Peele may be better known for his comedy, I for one am a believer that this man should start being known for his horror. Read More…

A Cure For Wellness — Horror Movie Review
A Cure For Wellness
by Gore VerbinskiIf you’re a fan of HMS and The Horror Show and you’ve been reading my reviews from the start, then there’s probably one thing you know about me: I have a bad habit of letting movie trailers hype up my expectations. Read More…

Split — Horror Movie Review
Split
by M. Night ShyamalanSplit is 2017’s M. Night Shyamalan film that perhaps we were all pretty nervous about seeing. The first reason I’d mention is that, typically, horror films in January just don’t tend to do well, and the second is that his movies are pretty 50/50. Read More…

Emelie – Horror Movie Review
Emelie
by Michael ThelinIt’s not often that I don’t find something worth enjoying in a film, whether it be the soundtrack, effects, acting, or storyline, something is typically redeemable and I can usually find the positive in something. However, I can’t say that’s the case for a film I watched recently called Emelie. Read More…
