Starring Cillian Murphy and being defined by its incredible writing and unique style, 28 Days Later has become a cult classic. From its commentary on post-9/11 paranoia to its reimagining of the zombie-trope …

The Oscar nominations are finally out! Every year, I love to wake up early and celebrate the Oscar nominations as they are announced, and every year, there are always surprises and films being recognized that I haven't yet gotten the chance to watch. For example, Netflix's All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) and The …
Every year, Hollywood celebrates the best films at the Oscars ceremony, and I am eagerly awaiting the nominations announcement tomorrow. Alongside the celebration of the best films of the year, Hollywood also enjoys throwing jeers at the worst films of the year at the Razzie Awards. This year's pack of Razzie nominations just came out, …

Out of all the different styles of horror flicks, the subgenre that I think …
A24 is a studio that has become known for its artsy, psychological horror films (The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017), It Comes at Night (2017), Hereditary (2018), Midsommar (2019), The Lighthouse (2019)), and I myself have loved/been deeply disturbed by most of them. So, I was very excited to see their newest film from …
My favorite directors, and the directors that I find tend to make the best movies, are the ones that have a very distinct DNA in their films that make it completely theirs: Quentin Tarantino, Taika Waititi, Wes Anderson, Steven Spielberg just to name a few. Another such director is Edgar Wright, whose films such as …
The big name in horror that I always look forward to is the incredible director, James Wan. Between Saw (2004), Insidious (2010), and The Conjuring (2013) and The Conjuring 2 (2016), Wan has demonstrated fantastic success in his horror films and I have thoroughly enjoyed every horror film he has ever directed. So even with …
