My Thoughts While Watching… Men (2022) [Trigger Warning: Suicide, Violence & Nudity]

I've seen plenty of Buzzfeed posts floating around where people write a list of thoughts while watching a movie. I read some a few years ago where someone watched all of the Harry Potter movies for the first time while live tweeting and writing a post per movie. I still quote a lot of what …

Skinamarink (2022) – Short Review

I decided to put on Shudder to find something to put on in the background while I was working on article research. I had looked for Skinamarink on there a while back, but strangely found that it wasn't there, even though it's a Shudder movie. It may have just come out later in the UK …

Rosemary’s Baby (1968) Review

Rosemary and her actor husband, Guy, move into a large gothic apartment building in New York. When Rosemary becomes pregnant, their unusual neighbours begin getting uncomfortably involved. This is possibly one of the best psychological horror movies. It can at times get a bit frustrating, but in the way that you want to help Rosemary …

Fatal Attraction (1987) Review

This is a thriller that serves as a cautionary tale about cheating on your spouse and birthed the term "bunny boiler". Dan Gallagher is a successful lawyer in Manhattan.

Gerald’s Game (2017) Review

This is the Stephen King novel that was once considered unfilmable. Until Mike Flanagan came along, of course. Jessie and her husband Gerald travel to their isolated lake house to rekindle their romance. After handcuffing Jessie to the bed to indulge in one of his hidden fantasies, he has an unexpected heart attack, leaving Jessie …

Audition (1999) Review

This movie is probably one of the best and grossest psychological thrillers out of Japan, but then again, I haven't even scratched the surface of Japanese horror, so this may be a premature statement. It's one of the best and grossest psychological thrillers I've ever seen. That seems like a more accurate statement. Shigeharu Aoyama …
