The Corpus Grimoire part 5 (finale) Mano took Grace down an alley to a side door. “Can you break it down?” he asked. She raised her hand and concentrated. A blast of dark energy shot out and the door fell inside. Wasting no time, Mano took her hand and rushed her into the shadowy building. The room was dark and their eyes hadn’t yet adjusted … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #45
I know Netflix kind of hangs its hat on shows these days, but I have always been a movie guy, and I’m glad to see they still release so many new original films. I like television programs, sure, but they’re an awful big commitment. Several seasons of several episodes, all lasting between thirty and sixty minutes each. Sometimes much more if you enjoy something like … Continue reading Train Dreams Review
I’m bad at acknowledging the 1960’s–much less anything before the 1960’s!–ever happened. Which, honestly, is pretty generous of me! I was born in 1980, so I don’t even have any tangible proof that the 1970’s happened either, but I’ve decided to allow them into my thinking. I used to be relatively anti-The-1970’s, but I have since realized the 1960’s is where I actually hold most … Continue reading Thirteen The Fridayth: 2020’s Horror

The Corpus Grimoire Part 4 The Corpus Grimoire had nearly fallen into legend. Often associated with the affluent Rusnak family, stories of the spell book were passed on over the centuries as a supremely powerful weapon that eventually claimed the lives of all who used it. The Rusnak family had long-ago converted to Christianity and renounced witchcraft and it was believed the book was sold … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #44
When your favorite movie is from a particular sub-genre, it can mean one of two things. You either grade that sub-genre really kindly because you know you love it, or you grade it harshly because any competition has an uphill battle to measure up. With me, my favorite movie is somehow NOT from the horror genre, which shocks even me. No, my favorite film of … Continue reading Fight Or Flight Review
I just recently, as of this writing, passed one hundred movies released in 2025 watched. In that hundred films, I’ve obviously seen a lot of movies in theaters and that were big, major releases (Predator: Badlands was officially #100, for instance), but you don’t get to that figure without finding a lot of independent flicks on streaming services. When you watch a lot of indie … Continue reading Don’t Log Off Review
Guys. Guys, I think I like musicals, guys. And this has been a really disappointing revelation in my life. I guess I always wanted to be one of those people that was “too cool” for musicals. “Why is everyone just busting out until song?” I’d ask. “Why are the extras in the background happily partaking in their music?”. It all seems so odd, right? Aliens … Continue reading Sing Street Review
The Corpus Grimoire Part 3 The Carpathian warlock sat in his grotto with a lit candle casting light on the leather bound book. He followed a belief system that predated Christianity in that area and, in his practice, communing with harmful spirits was unwise. The three shadowy beings that gave him the book seemed to be such spirits. And yet, the book was enticing. Holding … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #43
I need to watch more of the classic Universal Horror features from the 1930’s through 1950’s. I’ve seen a handful of them, sure, but there are several more out there. For instance, I have skipped The Mummy and The Phantom Of The Opera because I had heard they didn’t quite measure up to the rest. But maybe I’ll dig them anyway when I try them … Continue reading Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein Review
Robert from Crooked Table Productions is back for another go ’round in The Order, as he and Stew discuss 2007’s Oscar-nominated Persepolis! For more from Robert, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 163: Persepolis
It’s funny to me, but in the last three years, I’ve seen FAR more movies released prior to 1970 than I had in my entire life combined leading up to that trio of years. Hell, you could almost certainly make that about movies made prior to 1980! It’s not that I had a particularly strong bias against “old” movies; it’s just that I never felt … Continue reading Rashomon Review
We are back, and when we last looked at this list, we counted down #20-11 of the best non-new-release films that I watched in 2025. I had seen 169 such movies in the calendar year, so we are talking some great pictures across the board here. Everything from #20 onward has been at least a 4.0 out of 5.0! Now it’s time to finish this … Continue reading Top 20 First Time Watches In 2025: #10-1
So far this January, I’ve discussed the worst movies that released in 2025 and my favorite movies that came out in that same year. But it’s time to leave the past in the past, as we move on to looking at… the more distant past, I suppose? My perpetual New Year’s Resolution for the past few years is to watch 200 movies in a calendar … Continue reading Top 20 First Time Watches In 2025: #20-11
The Corpus Grimoire part 2 Alysa Saraki stood outside a dark, four story complex that no longer had any living residences. The asylum was originally built in a Kirkbride style, with narrow halls, long wings that spread out like a bat, and high ceilings to allow movement among patients and staff, but when it was remodeled in the 50s, it was flattened out and sterilized … Continue reading AP Productions: Winghaven #42
