Movie Review – Thanksgiving
—
I was expecting a lot more from Thanksgiving. I love Eli Roth movies but this one fell flat. I was constantly thinking, “When are we going to see his form?” It never happened. In my opinion, Thanksgiving felt a lot like “I Know What You Did Last Summer,” just not as good, and that’s kinda…

Movie Review – Dream Scenario
—
Don’t be fooled by the early trailer for this movie! I was under the impression that it would be more “tame” and “light-hearted” than it is. Make no mistake, while the film has its laughs, it is indeed a dark comedy. As the title suggests, this is truly an “escapist” movie such that it transports…

Indie Movie Review – Wickedly Evil
—
Well, sometimes things turn out to be totally different to what you expected! When I was sent the info for Wickedly Evil it was described as a “comedy horror caper”. When the opening credits start any letters that can have them (W,M,V, etc.) have the pointy bits extended to look like canine teeth. So, when…

Movie Review – Five Nights at Freddy’s
—
Five Nights at Freddy’s surprised me. After watching the trailers, I figured this would be a bloody slasher film. There was actually a lot of depth to it, and the story was quite intriguing. I enjoyed it a lot more than I initially expected. My problem with the movie was the casting. The acting was…

Indie Movie Review – 8 Found Dead
—
Sometimes you develop expectations about a film without any real justification. A young woman, Jessie (Jenny Tran), is driving out to a holiday home to prepare it for the new tenants. It is. remote, isolated, and so far off the beaten track that you’d need tracker dogs to find the track let alone the cabin.…

Indie Movie Review – The Price We Pay
—
There are some films which have an ending that is obvious from the first few minutes. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing though! For instance, I defy anyone to watch the first ten minutes of Strictly Ballroom and not be able to say how it will finish but that doesn’t stop it from having a…
