Hellraiser: Judgment follows in the path of the previous installments in the Hellraiser franchise. In this sequel, we see a trio of detectives trying to catch a serial killer and solve the mysterious happenings in a seemingly abandoned house. Hellraiser: Judgment Review There isn't much to be proud of in this somehow-still-alive franchise that hasn't put out anything of note since its third installment.

Mortal Engines follows a handful of characters as they traverse a distant future that features mobile towns that are "hunted by and fed upon" by large "predator" mobile cities. Mortal Engines Review Before I begin my defense of Mortal Engines, I will preface my thoughts with the objective statement that Mortal Engines is inherently flawed.

Game Night Review Firstly, it's worth mentioning that this movie was initially review

The Possession of Hannah Grace follows a disgraced and traumatized ex-cop who becomes a solitary nightshift worker in the morgue of a local hospital. When a mangled corpse arrives, it becomes gradually apparent that the corpse did not arrive under ordinary circumstances, and what's worse is the entity responsible may still be with the body. The Possession of Hannah Grace Review "There's nothing new under the sun" is now a reality of filmmaking that I feel is becoming cliche t

Ready Player One takes place in a dystopian future in which most of humanity is obsessed with playing in a MMO with life-like virtual reality. When the creator of the virtual universe dies, an event is triggered that promises the rights of the universe to whomever can find three hidden keys. A young man and his rag-tag team of friends must find a way to get the three keys before a greedy corporation tracks them down for itself. Ready Player One and the Homage to Horror I was

The Predator follows in the footsteps of the Predator franchise, as another hunter alien arrives on Earth, but with surprising motives. When yet another larger Predator lands, a rag-tag team of dishonorably discharged soldiers must find a way to stop its pursuit to end the lives within its vicinity. The Predator Review I have a deep love for all things Predator and Alien. They are two of my favorite franchises and I tend to back them to a fault. I defend even the most panned
