Must Be the Season - Maddwolf The Last Sacrifice by Hope Madden Documentarian Rupert Russell has a pretty wild tale to tell, one set in an isolated British community where outsiders aren’t wanted, information is hard to come by, a...

“If you have any interest in British folk horror, The Last Sacrifice is a fascinating must-watch.” On Shudder this week:

Sweetness: The Annie Wilkes Of Gen-Z Has Arrived - The Ginger Nuts Of Horror Review Website Emma Higgins' Sweetness blends Misery-style terror with music video slickness. Read our review of the pop star horror starring Kate Hallett.

Sweetness review: Music video director Emma Higgins serves Gen-Z Misery with a pop star twist. Kate Hallett is heartbreakingly unhinged. Parasocial horror done right. 🖤 #SweetnessMovie #Horror

A ★★★½ review of Little Amélie or the Character of Rain (2025) Overall an okay film, gorgeous animation sure but a script/atory that leans heavily on childlike wonder and that there is larger power leading or guiding us.  A good film but one that is not in my whe...

Okay so just out of #LittleAmelie for #OSCARRace2026 which was just okay to me, had gorgeous animation but the story hinging on Childish wonder & faith was not in my wheelhouse, okay watch but not worth a rewatch in my opinion. 6.5⭐️ out iof 10⭐️ boxd.it/cWCkJz

Was such a good film!

Club Creepy - Maddwolf Dooba Dooba by Brooklyn Ewing Dooba Dooba feels like something special — like a movie from the 70s or 80s that you borrowed on bootleg VHS from a new kid in your town.  The movie opens as Amna (Amna V...

“Director Ehrland Hollingsworth is new to horror, but I think he has a new home in the horror community, and I cannot wait to see how audiences respond to this movie. I feel like part of a secret club after being able to see Dooba Dooba and I’m ready to talk about it with the world.”

Testify - Maddwolf The Testament of Ann Lee by Hope Madden Filmmaker Mona Fastvold (The World to Come) draws you into her latest by dancing into the woods with an ecstatic group dressed a bit like Puritans. The dance fe...

The Testament of Ann Lee “is a passionate, bold film about building community, finding and remaining true to yourself, and the unrivaled power of dancing.”

The Healing Skies - Maddwolf H Is for Hawk by George Wolf “I don’t have a hobby, I have a hawk.” “Mabel” became much, much more than a hobby for Helen Macdonald, and H Is for Hawk adapts their award-winning memoir with nearly equ...

“It is a unique and well-crafted film, but the honesty of H Is for Hawk is just spread too thin for a truly memorable flight.” Our take:

Maldoror Review: Fabrice Du Welz's Belgium True Crime Misstep - The Ginger Nuts Of Horror Review Website Our review of Fabrice du Welz's 'Maldoror,' a grim Belgium true crime tale based on the Marc Dutroux case, starring Anthony Bajon. See if it hits the mark.

New review up for Fabrice du Welz’s ‘Maldoror.’ A true crime pivot for the horror director, based on the Dutroux case. Strong performances meet a narrative swerve that doesn’t quite work. Full thoughts:

The Slate Is Never Clean - Maddwolf In Cold Light by Hope Madden Maxime Giroux’s gritty thriller In Cold Light keeps you off kilter, moving from dreamy confusion to full-on sprint and back again. Maika Monroe is Ava, and our first sprin...

In Cold Light is “a more than solid thriller and another impressive turn from Maika Monroe.” Our review:

A busy 1st day of a short Work Week but I did get to relax some & listened to the new @favefivefromfans.bsky.social direct from #PlasticMicrophoneStudio on Fave #BruceWillisRoles so many good roles (love that #Moonlighting got mentioned) I will also admit a love of both #MoonRiseKingdom & #SinCity

If you thought 28 Years Later didn’t go hard enough, good news: The Bone Temple delivers the horror goods:

Celluloid Atlas - Maddwolf Resurrection by Matt Weiner Chinese filmmaker Bi Gan set the bar high for himself with his second feature, the surreal sensation Long Day’s Journey into Night that capped off a dreamy neo-noir with an...

Resurrection comes “from a master technician who is practically demanding that you see this on a big screen, with a hushed crowd of strangers, all in agreement that there is still something essential about the power of stories through moving images on a screen.” Matt Weiner has our review:

Zulu Up in Here - Maddwolf Night Patrol by Hope Madden Crime drama, social commentary, action flick, vampire movie—Night Patrol bites off a lot. But since director Ryan Prows and writers Tim Cairo, Jack Gibson and Shaye Ogbonna...

“with no discernable genre, Night Patrol leaves you a little dizzy.” Our take:
