A ★★★ review of HIM (2025) A complete mess, but good to look at. Him is an auteur piece masquerading as a horror movie. It’s a looney tunes premise that takes the ‘professional athletics is a form of modern day slavery’ and pil...

Arthur piece masquerading as a horror movie. Visually, this thing is amazing to watch. Story-wise...its a chaotic mess.

I had my political differences with Dick Cheney, but in person I found him warm, funny, a gracious host and surprisingly knowledgeable about music. Seeing The Jesus Lizard with him in 2009 was a blast, and he didn't hesitate to wade into the pit despite a few sidelong glances.

Fearful that $1 billion keeping the big man in as best of spirits as possible is probably a prudent investment relative to the alternative.

The Surrender ‐ 3.5 / 5
Shudder - 2025

A good movie and very well executed although you have to accept an extremely flawed conceit to get there. The mother is one of the most baffling characters I've seen, and her motivations are completely inscrutable.

A ★★★½ review of Here for Blood (2022) As deliberately silly movies go, pretty good. Halfway in between Psycho Goreman (flawless) and Kids Vs Aliens (decent but disappointing) feels like the right score here. Unlike too many horror comedie...

Here For Blood - 3.75 / 5
Prime 2022

Well executed deliberately silly horror movie. Not as good as Psycho Goreman, but better than most other attempts at this genre. The elbow drop scene is hysterical and probably what I'll remember forever about this one.

The Ugly Stepsister – 4 / 5
Shudder 2025

Unexpectedly gruesome serving of misery as entertainment a la The Coffee Table and Speak No Evil. Never matches the sustained dread of better films, but the high spots are gnarly. Lea Arden's acting is superlative.

I have to do a lot of non-public facing writing. Think reports, executive summaries, emails. It's faster to let ChatGPT handle the editing and proofreading. It helps a lot with "I didn't have time to write a short letter so I wrote a long one instead."

They Call Her Death (Shudder 2024) — 4 / 5

Wild tide that evokes Peter Jackson's early work, Robert Rodriguez and old westerns. The low budget seams do show quite a bit, but it's still quite fun. Definitely niche, but I am in said niche.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024 Max) — 3.5 / 5

A perfectly pleasant viewing experience. Best looking movie I'll see this year likely. And good story! Does have tryhard syndrome. Too many bits reek of a culturally out of touch old man. Could be worse though.

A ★★★½ review of Speak No Evil (2024) Hard movie to review if you’ve seen the original version. Tried to think through what grade I’d give had I seen this one first, but it’s hard to ignore the standard set by Christian Tafdrup…particular...

Speak No Evil (2024 US) ‐– 3.5 /5

Surprisingly decent if still inferior to the original in every way. The original goes extremely hard, and this is the low ABV pre-mixed cocktail version for American audiences. Almost every fresh choice backfires.

MadS - 3.75 / 5
Shudder - 2024

If someone were to ask "Neil, what do you imagine it would be like to be young, rich, French, and on bath salts?" much of the imagery from MadS would come to mind.

Technically brilliant. Awesome acting. Pretty thin story though
