  • The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina

    —

    I have mixed feelings about this series. I started out really liking it, finding it a fun mix of horror and dark humor, but then it sort of lost itself with its storytelling. I don’t care at all about the romance aspects, and had an especially hard time with the 5th episode — it’s a…

  • Channel Zero (Season 3)

    —

    I’d heard of this series when it launched, and was curious, but never got around to watching it. With the 4th season launching recently, and seeing some good buzz about it, I decided to pay season 3 a visit. I only watched the first episode (of 6), but wow, this was incredibly creepy, and definitely…

  • 1922

    One of the two Stephen King films that popped up on Netflix a while back, I kept meaning to watch it and finally got around to it. Can’t say I liked it much though. There just isn’t much of a story here, which is no surprise when you learn that it was adapted from a…

  • The Endless

    —

    I had heard this described as a horror film, although it borders more on the sci-fi side of things. It’s an interesting premise — what appears to be a UFO death cult is more than it seems. Production values are definitely on the low end, but the film is well done, if a bit long…

  • Halloween III: Season of the Witch

    —

    This is such a weird movie. I probably watched it back in the day, but really didn’t have many memories of it. It’s so weird how it really has absolutely nothing to do with the Michael Meyers saga — although I do love the little nod they do through a TV commercial. The whole premise…

  • Ghoul

    —

    I’ve been curious about this series for a while now, and so finally got around to starting it during my October horror fest. I’ve only watched the first episode of three, but I really liked the setup — a near future in India where religion is banned. They tease a bit of supernatural stuff, but…

  • Pride & Prejudice & Zombies

    —

    I remember there being a lot of buzz for the book when it originally came out, but it wasn’t really something I was particularly interested in, and same goes for when the movie came out. On Halloween night I was looking for a movie to watch, and spotting this on Netflix, I decided to give…

  • Apostle

    —

    This is not an easy film to watch, but it’s well worth watching. The reason I say it’s hard to watch is because it’s so relentlessly dour and dark, and just never lets up — to a point where my wife stopped watching it about halfway (and she usually watches all these horror movies with…
