YouTube video by ReelPete Keeper 2025 Review The Ending Everyone Talks About

Keeper lands with one of the strangest energies of the year. The final minutes create a shift that horror fans keep talking about. Here is how it sat with me and why the ending becomes the part no one forgets.

The Running Man 2025 Review and How It Compares to the Original
YouTube video by ReelPete The Running Man 2025 Review and How It Compares to the Original

Edgar Wright reshapes The Running Man into something more controlled and more focused on the themes from the Stephen King novel. Here is my take on how it holds up.

Die My Love Movie Review – Art Film or Emotional Disconnect?
YouTube video by ReelPete Die My Love Movie Review – Art Film or Emotional Disconnect?

Die My Love is bold and fragmented β€” a film that asks you to live inside someone else’s collapse. I admired the craft, but I never felt the connection, and maybe that was the point.

Predator: Badlands Review – Sci-Fi Adventure with Heart
YouTube video by ReelPete Predator: Badlands Review – Sci-Fi Adventure with Heart

What happens when Predator trades terror for empathy? Predator: Badlands reshapes the hunt into something heartfelt, a sci-fi adventure about belonging, not survival.

If I Had Legs I'd Kick You
Full Movie Review
Rose Byrne delivers a performance built on control and empathy in If I Had Legs, I'd Kick You. It’s the kind of work that reminds you how powerful restraint can be.

Bugonia Full Movie Review
If you know Yorgos Lanthimos, you know anything can happen β€” and Bugonia (2025) proves it.
A conspiracy, a standoff, and a truth that refuses to sit still.

Why The Exorcist Still Scares Everyone!
YouTube video by ReelPete Why The Exorcist Still Scares Everyone!

Day 30 of 31 Days of Spooky – The Exorcist (1973)
For me, this is the Godfather of horror β€” a masterpiece that still feels disturbingly real. It’s not just about possession; it’s about faith, fear, and a parent’s love when reason collapses.

Day 27 of 31 Days of Spooky β€” The Virgin Spring (1960) / The Last House on the Left (1972)
The same story told two ways: one through faith, one through fear.
Bergman searched for meaning. Craven showed what happens when it disappears.

Day 26 of 31 Days of Spooky – The Lost Boys (1987)
Before he became known for Gotham and high style, Joel Schumacher turned a beach town into a vampire legend. Part fashion, part rebellion, and all 1980s.

Why C.H.U.D. Isn’t Camp – The Serious Side of an 80s Creature Classic
YouTube video by ReelPete Why C.H.U.D. Isn’t Camp – The Serious Side of an 80s Creature Classic

Day 25 of 31 Days of Spooky β€” my buddy Josh picked this one. C.H.U.D. (1984) isn’t the campy movie the title suggests. It’s a serious look at homelessness, pollution, and how 1980s New York tried to hide both.

Day 24 of 31 Days of Spooky – Peter Jackson’s The Frighteners (1996)
Michael J. Fox caught between the living and the dead. Early Weta Digital magic. A dark, funny, and strangely human ghost story β€” right before Middle-earth.

Day 23 of 31 Days of Spooky β€” Near Dark (1987).
Kathryn Bigelow’s first solo feature takes the vampire myth and strips it bare. Addiction, dependency, and small-town survival replace glamour and fantasy.
