Thoughts on Smile

 Smile is a horror film about a demon that scares folks with it’s grim rictus smile. Sosie Bacon plays her role with a lot of sincerity. It’s a fun movie that could very well be a metaphor for trauma and putting a smile on to hide. At the very least it’s a cool demon tormenting folks. 

Thoughts on Suitable Flesh

 Suitable Flesh is a horror film based on the works of HP Lovecraft. It’s a fun, sexy, stylistic movie. The characters and dialogue are at times cheesy, but Barbara Crampton and Heather Graham try to play it serious. It absolutely has flaws. The ADR is laughable. Check it out, if you dig Lovecraftian or erotic stories with a vein of movies like Fallen or Skeleton Key.

Thoughts on Immaculate

 Immaculate is a thriller starring Sydney Sweeney. It is a fine horror film that doesn’t over stay its welcome with a tight runtime. The acting is fine and story is equally adequate. EThe atmosphere takes a backseat to a gory third act that ends abruptly. Check it out if you like Rosemary’s Baby and The Omen.

Thoughts on There’s Someone Inside Your House

 There’s Someone Inside Your House is a trite slasher. The plot is forgettable. The characters are bland and dull. It doesn’t do anything bold or new. It’s fine if you are just wanting a by-the-book slasher movie. 

Thoughts on Late Night With The Devil.

 Late Night With The Devil is a horror movie set on an episode of a 1970s talk show. It’s fun and strange. The story and acting is compelling and entertaining. Check it out if you want to see a fresh horror take.

Thoughts on Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

 Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is a sequel that felt needlessly bloated. Michael Keaton stands out in a cast of very talented actors that seems to largely do thwirn. The story is bare bones with a glut of unnecessary characters that add to the runtime and do nothing to further the plot or develop the characters. In short, stick with the original. 

Thoughts on Deadpool and Wolverine

 Deadpool and Wolverine is the latest Deadpool movie. It is cameo-filled and full of blood and dark humor. It’s entertaining and self-aware. It’s not the best movie, it won’t be winning awards. But it certainly isn’t the worst movie either. It’s good, and that is all you need from a comic book movie at times.
