Dead or Alive, 1999

Best ending in all of movies? Maybe but just don’t ask me what happened in the other 90+ minutes of this whacked out movie. I have no idea.

Blood Rage, 1987

Where has this movie been all of my life? I don’t know how I missed this back in the VHS glory days. What a fun slasher movie!

The Hills Have Eyes, 1977

A simple premise directed flawlessly by the late Wes Craven. I still think this movie is criminally underrated.

Cam, 2018

A very long 90 minute movie and I still don’t know why anything happened.

Sisters, 2015

Fey and Poehler had great chemistry as always. The movie played out like a funny teen comedy filled with 40 year olds.

Searching, 2018

I do like the “screen life” genre and I felt this movie broke a one of its fundamental rules. Just show the full screen as is, no unnecessary zooming in to highlight something. That kind of stuff takes me right out of the movie.

Mile 22, 2018

Mildly entertaining if you can ignore the ridiculous overacting. Iko Uwais is basically a real-life superhero so back the cameras up and let the guy do his thing. Stop editing all his fight scenes so poorly that you can barely see what is happening.

Gnaw, 2017

I love a good creature feature and sadly this was not one of the good ones.

The Strangers: Prey at Night, 2018

Much better than I was expecting. The first half dragged a bit but once you get to the pool scene it really takes off from there.

Viral, 2016

Cliche from start to finish. Someone who’s never seen a horror movie before probably wouldn’t even be surprised by it.

The Night Eats the World, 2018

Proof that there are still interesting stories to tell with zombies. I was invested the main actor’s methodical plan to survive long term. The creepy silent zombies were original too.
