Hallucinations in movies are rarely done right.  If done correctly, visual hallucinations should be cowitnessed by the audience, only when the affected character is also looking in the direction of the hallucination.  If the audience sees an objective view that the affected person… Continue reading

Yet another revenge-horror film it is!  “Oh no!” you say.  “Please, not another!”  But, wait.  There’s a silver lining in this blood-soaked playbook of could-be cliches and overdone drudgery.  This time it’s… Continue reading

THE HUNT: “Fair and Balanced” Political Satire for the Times

Gallery

Some of the best horror films are those in which the monsters are the people around us, our friends and family, and anyone but the obvious, overt physical monsters we expect.  These monsters look just like our friends, relatives… Continue reading

SARGAD (Wounded)
