Everwinter Night Review

This unconventional production was the result of a different movie being cancelled at the last minute due to unforeseen complications. With a cast and crew two days out from filming on location in New Hampshire, a completely new story was conceived on the fly using the resources available. Everwinter Night marks the inaugural feature from Dreamscape Productions. Following a successful festival run that included winning … Continue reading Everwinter Night Review

Lisa Frankenstein Review

I remain the whitest person you know, don’t worry. After a two-for at the local AMC theater where I saw Lisa Frankenstein and Argylle back-to-back, I was absolutely starving. Turns out that going through two feature length movies without eating is just more than a fatty like I can bear mid-day. Driving home at a little after 10pm, I was on the hunt for some … Continue reading Lisa Frankenstein Review

Here For Blood Review

A gory throwback to video store staples of the ’80s and ’90s, SCREAMBOX Original wrestling-fueled horror-comedy Here for Blood will invade select theaters, digital, and SCREAMBOX on February 9. The last time I saw a wrestling-inspired horror flick, I ended up with Pro Wrestlers Versus Zombies. And I really wanted to like it, what with its cast and all. I was a huge Shane Douglas … Continue reading Here For Blood Review

The Strangers: Chapter One Review

From the genre of Movies That Never Needed To Be A Franchise, we bring you the third film in The Strangers extended universe: The Strangers: Chapter One. The first The Strangers movie was a sleeper hit with its small budget (nine million dollars) weighed against massive box office success (over 82 million). It was a movie I personally found half-satisfying. For the front end, the … Continue reading The Strangers: Chapter One Review

Life Of Belle Review

Drawing comparisons to Paranormal Activity and Skinamarink, Life of Belle haunts SCREAMBOX on May 17. The found footage film attempts to piece together the mysterious disappearance of a young girl. I’ll take sleight issue with that summary from Screambox, as aside from the fact that there are children involved, Life Of Belle is nothing like Skinamarink. Oh, there’s a lot of Paranormal Activity here to … Continue reading Life Of Belle Review

Followers Review

Like You’re Next for the influencer generation, SCREAMBOX Exclusive Followers streams on March 12. The home invasion thriller finds a social media influencer in the crosshairs of a relentless dark web cult. Followers is the story of three friends–Riley, Sam, and Heather–who start the movie off with a camping trip. After one of them inadvertently ruins their ability to charge their cell phones, Sam starts … Continue reading Followers Review

American Werewolves 2: The Skinwalkers Review

I am admittedly not much of a believer in things that require faith or in things that are supernatural or extraterrestrial. My personal thoughts on the matter are that I don’t have superpowers, so why should it be fair if, like, Bigfoot or aliens visiting earth exist! Someday, though, I’m sure my latent heat vision or something will kick in, and we can revisit this … Continue reading American Werewolves 2: The Skinwalkers Review

Destroy All Neighbors Review

We are back to some Shudder Roulette lately! I watched the fairly well-received Suitable Flesh recently on the streaming service, and it wasn’t quite for me, unfortunately. I found it to be very Malignant-adjacent, but it didn’t have the same respectability quotient as James Wan’s bonkers outing. That movie was a big budget, big studio release that had the balls to advertise itself as a … Continue reading Destroy All Neighbors Review

The Sacrifice Game Review

Sometimes it’s harder to figure out when a movie actually released than it should be. When I’m looking at a movie and trying to figure out what year it came out in, especially as of these last few years–I do a lot of Best Of lists and keep tally of where the flicks I watch belong–too often the “release date” can be frustratingly inaccurate. Especially … Continue reading The Sacrifice Game Review

Underground Review

SCREAMBOX exclusive Underground streams on January 9. Inspired by true events, the found footage nightmare finds a bachelorette party trapped in a World War II bunker complex. Found Footage movie! Boy, that’s a divisive term right there. People tend to either love or hate that subgenre of movies. Let’s be honest; most found footage flicks are horror, though certainly not all. And you have a … Continue reading Underground Review
