Silent Night, Zombie Night, 2009 – ★

This film failed to provide any enjoyable moments, leaving me completely dissatisfied. It lacks any redeeming qualities and was a disappointment from start to finish.

The Advent Calendar, 2021 – ★★

The intriguing concept feels overextended and loses impact over its runtime. This story would have been far more effective as a concise 30-minute segment in an anthology.

Toxic Obsession, 2019 – ★★★

This film perfectly blends the charm of a vanity project with a complete misunderstanding of basic human behavior. Its bizarre character interactions add an unintended layer of entertainment.

A Quiet Place: Day One, 2024 – ★★

After three films in the franchise, it’s frustrating that we still don’t have any real answers about the creatures. Instead of advancing the story, it feels like we’re just seeing a repetition of the same scenario.

Hell Girl, 2019 – ★

The film is so disjointed that I gave up trying to make sense of the plot. Its chaotic narrative left me more confused than entertained.

Children of the Corn: Runaway, 2018 – ★

This film is a major letdown from the typically dependable John Gulager, lacking his usual touch. It feels like a rushed production made solely to maintain the license, rather than a genuine effort.

Scared to Death, 1980 – ★★

This film falls short of delivering the fun and excitement I anticipated. Despite its potential, it ultimately feels lackluster and disappointing.

Syngenor, 1990 – ★★

Not even the talented David Gale could redeem this low-budget monster movie. Its lackluster production and uninspired storyline make it a forgettable experience.

The Exorcism, 2024 – ★

Even Russell Crowe’s mighty talents can’t elevate this predictable exorcism film. The lack of originality makes it a forgettable entry in the genre.

Rite Here Rite Now, 2024 – ★★★

Having discovered GHOST only recently, they’ve quickly become one of my favorites. The high production value of the concert film sets a standard I wish more artists would follow.

Eight Eyes, 2023 – ★★★

The gritty, lo-fi vibe of this film appeals to me, even if the plot is sometimes hard to follow. Its raw charm and atmospheric intensity make for an intriguing watch despite the narrative’s lack of clarity.

Megalomaniac, 2022 – ★★

The predictability of the plot twist made this film a tough watch, diminishing the overall impact. Its lack of suspense resulted in a rather tough sit.

Yellow Dragon's Village, 2021 – ★★★

The film impresses with its inventive plot, showcasing a fresh take on its genre. With a larger budget, it’s easy to envision this creative story becoming a major hit.

Harland Manor, 2021 – ★

This film stands out as one of the worst in its genre, plagued by a plot where characters make the most illogical decisions at every turn. The experience is frustrating and lacks any redeeming qualities.
