Maybe They Should Save Themselves: Maxxxine (2024) as Middle Finger

By Orrin Grey • November 6th, 2024

I think that Maxxxine really believes that it has something to say in all those theme-heavy monologues

Personal Items Work Best: Oddity (2024)

By Orrin Grey • October 31st, 2024

Oddity is an extremely slow burn, though it keeps elements of eeriness and dread close at hand.

Feature Story
In a detail from the movie poster art for the film The Stuff, a man screams as light green goop flows freely from his eyes and mouth.

Nothing But Respect for My President Whipped Crème

By Orrin Grey • October 25th, 2024

Does each peak hold beautifully from kitchen to plate, as the can promises? Is it sure to impress? Will it make my family love me?

I Played It, Like, Twice...

Midnight in the Garden of Goo: Going Haunting with Bump in the Night

By Orrin Grey • October 22nd, 2024

There’s an odd sense that, somehow, what we’re pulling from are more weirdo Italian movies like Ghosthouse than more standard haunted house fare.

I Played It, Like, Twice

You Can’t Escape from Yourself: The Substance (2024)

By Orrin Grey • October 3rd, 2024

One of my pet peeves in modern horror films is when the central premise works only as metaphor, not as actual text.

Funeral Rites
Three characters stand in three separate panels each surrounded by various weapons.

Getting Lost in the Melodious World of the Ballads of Oræd

By Orrin Grey • September 27th, 2024

On the table next to the candle is a book that you don’t remember seeing before. The book itself feels at once familiar and strange, as though you have read it before, perhaps in a dream. The title is Ballads of Oræd.
