Godzilla Minue One

Godzilla Minus One Godzilla Minus One is definitely not a Hollywood movie; it’s a bit too hoaky for Hollywood. This is a Japanese film set in Japan at the end of WW2. The film has a fair-to-good Godzilla destroying cities and throwing ships and trains, which one expects. But then there is a melodramatic story…

Last Night in Soho

LAST NIGHT IN SOHO Last Night in Soho is a psychological thriller written and directed by the Londoner Edgar Wright. This film is the ninth feature film that Edgar Wright has written and/or directed. He is best known to me for Baby Driver, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and Shaun of the Dead. Last Night…

Hellbound

HELLBOUND Watch the first six minutes of Hellbound, a Korean horror thriller series, and you will be intrigued by the supernatural horror that is happening in a South Korean city, or you will be appalled by the “demonstration” and will miss an exciting horror thriller. The first three episodes of Hellbound show the beginning of…

Till Death

TILL DEATH Never did I think I would intentionally watch a Megan Fox movie for her acting.  Till Death, a suspense thriller is the most enjoyable movie I’ve seen in a long time, albeit a bit bloody.  Not slasher bloody, just you stab me, or I stab you bloody.  Megan Fox is superb changing from…

Shadow in the Cloud

SHADOW IN THE CLOUD Shadow in the Cloud, an action-horror film on Hulu, is a tremendous opportunity for Chloë Grace Moretz, and she is powerful in the role.  Most of the film is a one-woman show with Chloe Grace Moretz as Officer Maude Garrett in the bottom turret (Sperry) of a B-17 bomber flying over…

Army of the Dead

ARMY OF THE DEAD Zombie movies are not going away.  Zack Snyder co-wrote, directed, filmed, and produced Army of the Dead, Netflix’s newest zombie heist film.  Army of the Dead creates a new Alpha zombie species that can rule lesser zombies (Shamblers), plot attacks, have a Queen, and impregnate the Queen.  Get ready for more…

Spontaneous

SPONTANEOUS Spontaneous is a teen horror-comedy film, but I think it is more of a coming-of-age and romance film occurring under a unique set of circumstances.  Spontaneous is darkly funny and could have been even more poignant but went for sarcasm and profanity at the end. The story originates from a 2016 Young Adult (YA)…

The Rental

THE RENTAL My daughter just rented a large beautiful house on the water so their wedding party can spend a couple of nights.  Jocelyn, Claire, and the entire wedding party, under no circumstance should you watch The Rental, a horror, thriller film set in a similar location. Charlie (Dan Stevens, The Call of the Wild)…

The 2005 Doom movie starred The Rock, Karl Urban, and Rosamund Pike.  id Software, the developer of the Doom video game, supported the original Doom…

Us

US I usually do not enjoy horror movies. I dislike seeing people dehumanized, treated like meat, slashed, sawed, and physically tortured. However, Us is different and worth watching. Us is shot in Southern California.  The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is prominent in several scenes.  Us is more than just a scary movie with an appropriate…

The Meg

THE MEG A prehistoric monster shark, the Megalodon (The Meg), is accidently released from the Mariana Trench while a team is researching the depth of the Trench. A plausible theory in this DC & Marvel Cinematic Universe age, I bought it, I was ready for mayhem, fear, and destruction. But what I got in this…

Trick r Treat

TRICK ‘R TREAT Break the Halloween traditions in Warren Valley, Ohio and a little Ghoul will find you and your Trick r’ Treat might be death/mutilation. This town also has a Halloween festival and parade, a pack of Werewolves dressing as hungry, horny hotties (Anna Paquin is the runt of the litter), a trick or…
