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, …
Well, after my part 1 went up I went on a long spree of watching more Halloween/Horror films from this year, and it would appear that I saved the worst for last. There were definitely a few that I really enjoyed, but I must admit, half of this list leaves a lot to be desired. …

My long hiatus from writing reviews came after last October, where I reviewed a horror film, show, or book everyday within the month. The massive amount of work I put into that, mixed with the increased toxicity towards film reviews (more on that after Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022) releases next month), caused me to …

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 …
Recent years have brought about an emergence of revitalizing old horror properties as pseudo-sequels, from Halloween (2018) to Spiral (2021) to the new SyFy series Chucky (2021). Another recent trend in the horror genre, and a thematic element that has unfortunately been poorly overlooked prior, is the inclusion of themes surrounding the African American experience, …
There are not many film franchises where I hate the majority of the films but love the franchise as a whole, but the Halloween franchise, created by the legendary John Carpenter, is one of those franchises. Out of all of the series' films, I've only liked Halloween (1978), Halloween III: Season of the Witch (1982), …
Ian Fleming's James Bond character and brand has permeated pop culture for over six decades with many novels and films. Ever since 007's first film outing with Dr. No (1962) starring Sean Connery as the titular hero, film fans have been clamoring around the Bond franchise. With seven different actors taking on the mantle of …
The Conjuring franchise is one of the best horror franchises being produced right now. The Conjuring (2013), The Conjuring 2 (2016), Annabelle Creation (2017), and Annabelle Comes Home (2019) are all fantastic that have cemented their place as some of the best franchise-horror films ever made. Up until this year, the only times this franchise …

Sony’s Spider-Verse started back in 2018 with the release of Venom—which I thought was okay, nothing amazing. By far the best part of the 2018 film was the incredible chemistry between Eddie Brock and Venom (played and voiced by Tom Hardy). Venom: Let There Be Carnage expands on the tumultuous relationship in an amazing way, …
