In an earlier post I said that I was completely enamored with Widow’s Bay. I remain so and apparently I am one of the many as Widow’s Bay took home an eye-popping 14 trophies from the Emmys last night. From technical achievements, to the writing, to the acting Widow’s Bay…

Buddy is a weird and special horror film. I went in absolutely cold to this film: I did not know who made it, who starred in it, or what it was about. I came out of the theater delighted. Buddy was an undeniably twisted, subversive, and high quality production; a…

Today is Friday and that means only one thing: FOUND FOOTAGE! For this installment we will be keeping focus not only on Japan but on the same filmmaker. Kōji Shiraishi is an incredibly talented and creative director, writer, and part-time actor who has brought us a wide range of films…

I tried. I tried really, really hard to like Undertone. In fact, I keep trying but no matter what I try, I just do not enjoy that film at all. I appreciate its novel approach to haunting the viewer with its incredible sound design, but I have heard podcasts that…
