We're going back to Netflix for this movie. The first thing I'll say is this felt like a Netflix original, Blumhouse-produced movie. When I found out it was actually released in theaters (way back in 2019), I was surprised. Maybe you're the kind of person who loves Netflix original horror movies. I'm... not exactly. But … Continue reading Movie review: Countdown

Movie Review: I’m Thinking of Ending Things
Here's the skinny on this movie: Netflix original from 2020, based on a book, over 2 hours long. And, for a movie that's over 2 hours, there really isn't much to talk about. So, let's get started. I've got more movies to watch. The Start This movie can be divided pretty easily into 3 parts, … Continue reading Movie Review: I’m Thinking of Ending Things
Movie Review: Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile
This movie caught my eye when it was released a few years ago, during that weird summer where it felt like every serial killer was getting a biopic. That trend seems to have slowed down, and that's probably for the best, but it did at least give us this movie. Zac Efron starring as Ted … Continue reading Movie Review: Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile
Movie review: Last Night in Soho
There aren't too many movies I purposefully watch in theaters. I go maybe 3-5 times every year, and usually it's only for movies I've been waiting on, anxious to see them.

Movie Review: Conjuring 3 (And Full Series)
The new Conjuring movie completes one of the greatest horror threequels ever put to film. Not only that, it reminds the audience of how good the first two were, how genre-defining this series turned out to be. I realized I hadn't written a full review of the first or second one, so I'll lump in … Continue reading Movie Review: Conjuring 3 (And Full Series)
Movie Review: A Quiet Place (Pt. 2)
From the instant the lights dim, A Quiet Place 2 is remarkably different. It opens with a brief thank-you video from John Krasinski, who has been extremely understanding of the plight audiences face in returning to theaters. He is earnest and hopeful, both in his message and in his movie. Another thing: There are no … Continue reading Movie Review: A Quiet Place (Pt. 2)
