He has the power, to pick up a flower, to jump off a tower, and Die… He Man! At least that’s how I remember the song going. Anyway, there is a new He-Man movie out. Well, I say He-Man, technically it is “Masters of the Universe” (Much like the previous 1987 movie). Possibly a marketing …
So far this year while there have been some trash and some bombs (Sometimes both). But we’ve also had some surprisingly good movies. Honestly it’s a run of quality that I wasn’t expecting to see again. Especially unexpected was many being in the genre of science fiction, which has suffered badly over the last decade. …
Today, we’re checking out Gore Verbinski’s new independent movie “Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die”. I’ve been looking forward to this ever since I watched the trailer several months back.

Before I move into reviews of 2026 movies, I have one more movie from last year to cover. Bugonia is Yorgos Lathimos sci-fi/black comedy based on the Korean movie “Save the Green Planet!” (2003). Will Tracy provides the screenplay, Robbie Ryan cinematography and Jerskin Fendrix, the music. The movie features a small cast with Emma …

So he set up a Pseudonym, “Richard Bachman” and penned four novels. These novels included “Thinner”, “The Long Walk” and “The Running Man” which he released in 1982. His secret …
Frankenstein is the movie that Guillermo Del Toro was born to make. Anyone familiar with his style and body of work will know this instinctively. The idea of the visionary director taking a crack at the ultimate tragic monster story is mouth watering. Guillermo is well aware of this himself and so was apparently hesitant …
Well, it’s Halloween and my final October Challenge review. Next year I will instead be enjoying myself at Universal Horror Nights in Florida and after five years of doing 31-35 reviews over October I feel I have well and truly defeated the challenge. I started out doing the reviews on facebook, but four years worth …
In 2020, there was a study called “Science of Scare Project” designed to determined the scariest horror movie of all time. The study was deeply flawed, but it’s still interesting. By monitoring heart rate and beat variance they determined the movie “Sinister” as the winner. They’ve repeated it a few times, with Sinister gaining the …
Tonight’s horror is another from the “Werewolf list”. That is the movies I decided to track down and watch after my disappointment with “Wolf Man” (2025). Eight movies in and I finally had the bad taste out of my mouth. But the list was longer than that, so I saved the rest up for this …
