Unidentified with Demi Lovato Quicktake: Contrived, Misleading, & Self-indulgent Demi Lovato is the greatest UFO investigator the world has ever seen. I have no clue what Stanton Friedman, J. Allen Hynek, and John Mack were doing with their careers because they left this world with more questions than answers. Not Lovato, though. In just four …

The latest Victor Stiff Review looks at Halloween Kills, a cold-blooded sequel to David Gordon Green’s standout 2018 Halloween reboot. Director David Gordon Green’s ultra-violent slasher flick isn’t for the faint of heart.

Dark Skies Quicktake: Not a great horror movie, but one of the best alien abduction films. Nothing sends chills down viewers’ spines like haunted house movies. It’s a timeless premise that taps into our collective fears. Who hasn’t been home alone one night and suddenly felt the hair on the back of their neck stand …

Halloween Kills Quicktake: Creepy, Disjointed, & Brutally Violent Horror movie franchises have a track record of overstaying their welcome. Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm Street, and Child’s Play were exciting at first, but studios kept producing half-ass sequels until fans soured on each series. Jason Voorhees started off as a backwoods serial killer …

First Love Quicktake: A Gritty, Violent, & Irreverent Crime Flick Two boxers square-off in a crowded arena, unleashing skull-shattering blows until one man hits the mat. Just as one fighter collapses, the film cuts to a severed head rolling out of an alley like a bowling ball. The head stops in the middle of the …

The Addams Family Quicktake: An Earnest, Kooky, & Defanged Reboot In 2021, I can’t imagine who is clamouring for a new Addams Family movie — I say this as the film’s target audience. I enjoy wearing skull pendants and horror movie t-shirts. I drink my morning coffee out of a black skull mug. And I …

The Green Knight Quicktake: A Gorgeous & Cerebral Filmmaking Showcase When you watch as many titles as I do, watching average films becomes a chore. I’ll take something bad that stands out over derivative and forgettable any day. Ideally, you want something thought-provoking that’s also good. These films are few and far between, but they …
