LATEST MOVIE REVIEW

OBSESSION (2025)
July 1, 2026
OBSESSION (2025)
July 1, 2026

On top of outstanding acting and unnerving shocks, “Obsession” has attracted so much attention because of how universally resonant it can be.

NEW ON BLU-RAY/4K FOR JULY

Featured
DEEP WATER (2026)
June 17, 2026
DEEP WATER (2026)
June 17, 2026

Emerging as average fodder for some streaming service’s black hole of common content, it’s generous to score “Deep Water” down the middle at 50/100.

June 17, 2026
LEE CRONIN'S THE MUMMY (2026)
May 20, 2026
LEE CRONIN'S THE MUMMY (2026)
May 20, 2026

As a mummy movie, “Lee Cronin’s The Mummy” is decidedly meh.  As a demonic possession movie, “Lee Cronin’s The Mummy” is still mostly mediocre.

May 20, 2026
THEY WILL KILL YOU (2026)
April 30, 2026
THEY WILL KILL YOU (2026)
April 30, 2026

“They Will Kill You” plays less like a fully-fleshed feature and more like a demo reel for staging stunts and coming up with creative camera movements.

April 30, 2026
THE MORTUARY ASSISTANT (2026)
March 30, 2026
THE MORTUARY ASSISTANT (2026)
March 30, 2026

It’s a low-risk, low-reward course in Horror 101, as taught by a student aide at a community college instead of by a tenured professor at a prestigious university.
