Movie: Candlewood (2016)

Movie: Candlewood (2016) Funny thing. I chose Candlewood completely at random (Tubi) for an afternoon movie. It just so happens to take place in a Connecticut town next to where I lived as a kid, and where my family still lives. You'd think I would have heard of this one, if not from family, then from still-local friends. Then again, maybe not. This movie is a real stinker.  There’s a lot to say about how the town is presented, but there’s no point. Fact is, I co…

Movie: Cube (1997)

Movie: Cube (1997) In a perplexing state of "WTF did I just watch" I bring you Cube (1997, Tubi), written and directed by Vincenzo Natali. It was his first movie! It opened to stellar reviews and gained a metric ton of awards for both film and filmmaker. I don't know how I missed it, except that I was pretty busy in 1997. Cube is about seven strangers who wake up in a strange room with no memory of how they got there. It's lit up, its got hatches …

Movie: It Feeds (2025)

Movie: It Feeds (2025) Alright folks, this post is about a new movie, out this year: It Feeds. Now, every time I post in the Horror Facebook Group I'm in, first I do a Search on the title to make sure someone didn't already post about it. If someone did, then I just Comment on their post with my thoughts rather than start a new one... But funny thing about It Feeds...there IS a post already. In fact, there are six! Only thing is? There are no Comments! I figure…

Movie: Exists (2015)

Movie: Exists (2015) I randomly chose Exists from the Found Footage menu on Tubi without realizing that it’s a Bigfoot movie. It came out in 2015. It’s no award-winner, but I actually liked it! Therefore I was surprised to find it so thoroughly panned online (Rotten Tomators, IMDB). The consensus seems to be dumb, annoying characters badly acted, question about why it was even done as FF (no reason for a camera in the hands a character), and poor writing and d…

Movie: Evidence (2013)

Movie: Evidence (2013) This was a surprise! I just watched Evidence (2013) on Tubi. Don't confuse it with the 2012 movie of the same name. In this one, two detectives watch three hours of footage found at a crime scene on four different cameras. The Nevada desert crime scene is gory, and there are two survivors. It's kinda cheating to place Evidence in the Found Footage genre, because it's only when they're watching the videos that it's FF. But we …

Movie: The Mansfield Ghost (2022)

Movie: The Mansfield Ghost (2022) Well. Where to start with The Mansfield Ghost. I must say that I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. The build-up was very compelling indeed. Lilly has 100,000 Followers and wants more, so she’s branching out from makeup tutorials to ghost hunting . She gets paid to stay in a “haunted” house. She streams video at the house, for three days leading up to Halloween. The videos are entertaining enough I guess, and when I said “compelling” I m…

Movie: Azrael (2024)

Movie: Azrael (2024) You know what? I had no idea Azrael was a scary movie when I put it on—I only glanced at the description. I registered the words “post-apocalyptic” and pressed play.  I was pleasantly surprised! I love a woman featured as a badass, and Samara Weaving is a total badass. In the movie’s universe, it’s like there’s a religious reason that people don’t talk. Almost no dialogue in this one! One guy, driving a truck no less, speaks Esperanto—his …
