Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Butterfly Kisses' (2019)
Can we talk about how fucking funny it is, that this is a fake documentary about a fake documentary? I fucking love the fact that they layered it like that. Also, props on the head nod to the original The Blare Witch Project, even including a cameo from director Edwardo Sanchez. I was impressed with how they stayed focally self-aware of what they were spoofing. I don't know how well everyone remembers the marketing campaign of The Blair Witch Project, but they tried to convince the public that a student film, sold to a movie studio, was actually real found footage. It was sort of before the internet was a real big thing. There was no Facebook, or viral marketing. Myspace hadn't been around for very long. The movie was completely sold by hiding the fact that the 'found footage' of The Blair Witch Project was a fake documentary. So the way this is presented is actually quite brilliant.

A 'Chucky' Movie That's Artistic?
There have been a lot of great movies and television shows I have seen through my youth and the rest of my teenage life. There are many different genres I enjoy, but for some reason, I mostly enjoy the recent seventh horror Child’s Play movie in straight to DVD film, The Cult of Chucky.

'The Silence' - A Review (Netflix)
How did Stanley Tucci end up in this? He needs to speak to his agent. Not that the rest of the cast cannot act, they undoubtedly can. John Corbett—a name not as well known as Tucci’s, but an actor whose face you will know—has appeared in far better fare than this, and also should be speaking to his agent.

Reed Alexander's Horror Review of 'Pet Sematary' (2019)
Jesus fucking Christ, Jete' Laurence is fucking creepy. Can we take a minute to appreciate, that at no point, did she fuck this role up with a Silent Hill moment? That speaks volumes for her talent as a little actress. Hope she carries it.

The Message of 'Pet Semetary'
One of the biggest issues with remaking a film is when the spirit of the original gets lost in the mix. 1989 saw the release of the film adaptation of one of Stephen King's career defining novels, Pet Semetary. The book was one that King, himself, was reluctant to release, but did so to fulfill a contractual obligation. He was reluctant not because he thought it was subpar, but rather because he thought it was too scary. It scared him.

'Pet Sematary'—Film Review
Stephen King’s cult classic novel, Pet Sematary, has been resurrected for the second time. Thirty years on from the first adaptation, the release of Kolsch and Widmyer’s chilling new spin on the gruesome tale has polarised opinions. Such a response is unsurprising, given the daring alterations to both the plot, and the characters. Did the alterations pay off, or is dead really better?

10 Horror Movies That Had Actors Die on Set
Do you believe in the Law of Attraction? The Law of Attraction suggests that you can attract bad luck by just thinking about it. This means thinking about evil will attract evil to your door. The same has been said for committing sacrilegious acts or keeping a negative mindset about life.

My Review of 'Us'
Like everyone out there that's seen the movie Get Out, I highly anticipated Jordan Peele's second horror movie outing. To be honest, I didn't really expect another one to be created so soon. I thought maybe he'd want to dabble with other movie genres or do something different.
