The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard is just as ridiculous as its predecessor and more convoluted. The star power is enough to warrant laughter thanks to the chemistry between the film’s leads, but it doesn’t excuse its underwhelming story. The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard could be considered more fun than the original and that’s mostly due to the… Continue reading Review: THE HITMAN’S WIFE’S BODYGUARD Thrives In Ridiculous Action

Review: SPIRAL: FROM THE BOOK OF SAW Traps Franchise In Strong Revamp
Spiral: From The Book of Saw successfully blends the psychological aspects of Saw and the gore-filled carnage found in the sequels. A solid attempt at revitalizing the franchise, but how long this breath of fresh air can last will be determined on the inevitable follow-ups.

Review: ANTEBELLUM Makes The Past The Present
Antebellum is another social commentary based horror film, but it’s no Get Out.

Review: SEMPER FI Doesn’t Quite Live Up To Its Namesake
Semper Fi, co-written and directed by Henry Alex Ruben, is a new thriller dealing with the injustices of the modern American prison system.

Review: ANGEL OF MINE Is Far From Holy
Angel of Mine, directed by Kim Farrant, is a new mystery film that doesn’t seem to know what it wants to say.

Review: SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK Is PG-13 Horror Done Right
Scary Stories To Tell in the Dark is surprisingly a well done PG-13 horror film. From time to time there comes a horror film that shows how effective it can be without being R rated.

These films… Continue reading Review: SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK Is PG-13 Horror Done Right
Review: SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK Is Dragged Down By A Weak Script
Based on the popular collections of short stories aimed at children, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is a new horror film set around Halloween being released in… early August?
