A killer gathers more sick and twisted degenerates to continue the violent rampage and capture everything on camera. Another week of Fucked Up February and we discuss another extremely fucked up movie. This week, it's August Underground's Mordum, which is the follow-up to the 2001 found footage horror movie, August Underground. In this one, they crank up the grotesque nature of the violence, bringing back a surviving killer from the first movie while introducing a new group of distu...
A cleaner takes a corpse home to spark his romantic life and find fulfillment. In Fucked Up February, anything can happen including the combination of necrophilia and romance. Jörg Buttgereit's Nekromantik is a shock value horror movie that is a response to movie censorship at the time and explores desensitization to violent and disgusting cinema. The film blends comedy and horror in a unique way that will shock audiences, while leading to a very memorable conclusion. Watch the movie and catc...
The events of a tragic night in Paris are unveiled in reverse. Irreversible is the first move of Fucked Up February for 2026 and it's a strong start to an always disturbing month. Gaspar Noe's camerawork, lighting, and creative storytelling are on full display in this movie as he reveals the horror of one night's events in reverse, creating more shock as the movie continues. Monica Bellucci and Vincent Cassel star and have memorable performances where love, regret, pain, hopelessness, and ven...
Teens headed to a football game find themselves holed up in an almost abandoned town with an odd wax museum. It's the 300th episode and to cap off Mike G's Wet Dream Month, we are discussing House of Wax. This movie is a loose remake of House of Wax from 1953 and that movie is a remake of Mystery of the Wax Museum from 1933. As a movie that often gets some hate, we've always said it's one of the more underrated horror movies from the 2000s with a fun cast of Chad Michael Murray, Elisha C...
After a young girl discovers a mysterious box that is able to grant wishes, she starts to experience deadly consequences at the cost of fulfilling her desires. Wish Upon is a guilty pleasure teen horror movie that we have spoken about quite a bit and are happy to discuss it. While it's not a perfect movie and has a lot of plot holes, it's a fun time with classic horror cliches, crazy kills, and even more nonsensical character decisions. It offers up the intriguing premise of what a young...
A group of friends start receiving voicemails from their future selves just moments prior to their deaths and then they start to die one after another. One Missed Call is the remake of a 2003 Japanese horror movie from director Takashi Miike and after watching this movie again, we come to the same conclusion. This movie has an interesting concept, but poor execution with a convoluted storyline, plots that lead nowhere, characters that are either developed badly or don't serve a purpose, and c...
Two high school friends crash a Y2K party in the hopes of getting laid, but as midnight arrives, the night takes another direction in the form of a computer assimilation plot. Y2K is a late 90s nostalgia trip, bringing us back to when we remember hearing about a technological apocalypse in the new millennium. This film explores the idea of computers taking humans over, leaving it up to high school kids at a party to save each other. This movie features coming-of-age elements as well as silly ...
A dark and twisted spin on everyone's favorite holidays in an anthology exploring traditions and what we've come to know and love. Holidays is a horror anthology that tells 8 tales based on several popular holidays including Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Christmas, and New Year's Day. This film has a strong director lineup including stories from Kevin Smith, Adam Egypt Mortimer, Dennis Widmyer, and Scott Stewart among others, as well as som...
Two children stay at their family cabin along with their father's girlfriend during a snowstorm. Tensions heighten when odd events occur which shakes their troubled relationship. The Lodge is a heavy movie that explores grief, loneliness, and guilt set in an isolated cabin in the middle of a snowstorm and delves into how these complex emotions can affect an already fragile relationship. The acting is great in this movie especially from Riley Keough, who plays Grace, a lone death cult sur...
A cloaked man pays Diane and her family a visit on Christmas Day and he ensures this is a Christmas they'll never forget. Every once in a while, there comes along a movie that has such a bizarre plot, you can't help, but watch it for the craziness. Red Christmas is not only a holiday horror movie, but it also has one of the weirdest, most insane slasher backstories we've ever heard of. In this movie, a cloaked man stalks a family during Christmas, however, the storyline is that he is an abo...
Killer toys, programmed by an older toymaker who works along with his son, are designed to kill children. Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker may be even more bizarre to watch than the last Silent, Deadly Night movie if it's possible. In a series with little to no continuity or identify, this installment features a drunken, elderly toymaker making toys programmed to kill children. A young boy appears to be the next target after the boy's father dies mysteriously from a toy left at the...
After Winnie, puts an end to a killer in her town, life is meaningless. When she wishes she wasn't born under the aurora, she's transported to a parallel universe where life is going on without her and it's not promising. It's a Wonderful Knife is a Christmas horror slasher that is a parody of It's a Wonderful Life and pays homage with its own spin on the story. The film features the always amazing, Justin Long, as a greedy mayor who plots to take over the town of Angel Falls, and he is alwa...
After the arrival of strange creatures who use their strong hearing to hunt, a family fights to stay alive by living their lives in silence. A Quiet Place is directed by John Kraskinsi, who also stars in the film alongside Emily Blunt. While not his directorial debut, it's Krasinski's first horror movie and he makes an impact on the genre immediately. In what many, including us, believe is a modern day classic, Krasinski paints a sad world where a loving family is forced to live a silen...
Two young Mormon women discuss their faith in the house of a strange man who has plans to make it a night no one will forget. Heretic is a psychological horror movie like no other led by a strong and unlikely, Hugh Grant, performance. The film also stars Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East who also deliver strong performances in a movie that's highly dialogue-driven, but tense throughout. From the character expressions to the theological debates, this movie had us unconformable from start to finis...
Although Jigsaw is dead, the games continue as Lieutenant Rigg is tested in order to save his colleagues. Saw IV is the fourth installment in the Saw series and although it's not the best of the series, it's still fun and has tense moments and creative traps. As huge fans of these movies growing up, we love watching them and feeling the nostalgia of one of our favorite horror franchises. We still believe that Jigsaw is underrated in the world of horror villains even though the Saw mov...
An easily frightened hospice nurse arrives at the house of a sick author and while caring for her, she discovers one of her stories may reveal secrets about the house. I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House is Osgood Perkins' second movie and while we enjoyed Longlegs and the style of storytelling Perkins used in that movie, this one didn't land for us. This film, while clearly artsy, came off as a basic ghost story with little-to-no substance for us. While this movie certainly has a f...
35 years after the "Sweet Sixteen Killer" murders, the infamous killer returns and takes another victim. Incidentally, a young girl travels back in time to 1987 and attempts to stop the initial killings. Totally Killer is a fun, light-hearted horror film to close out Spooky Season. There's nothing worse than a horror comedy that isn't funny. Good thing that's not the case with this one. This movie delivers on laughs, music, and vibes as an infamous serial killer is tracked through time and ou...
After partying on Halloween, a group of friends enter a haunted house that turns their deepest fears into reality. Haunt is our next review for Spooky Season and it sure is a fun watch. There's nothing like watching movies about extreme haunted houses in October. There's a bit here for everyone as there are slasher elements, some psychological horror, as well as a mystery. While this movie doesn't reinvent the wheel, it is a nice addition to Halloween horror and one that we believe can be an ...
After 10 years, Victor Crowley starts killing again in the Honey Island Swamp. Victor Crowley is the fourth installment of the Hatchet movies and if nothing else, this slasher series continues to have crazy kills in the bayou. What we've come to love from these movies is that they maintain the same premise in all movies which is a group heading into the Honey Island Swamp, only to be met and absolutely torn to pieces in different ways by Victor Crowley. This movie resurrects th...
Michael and a mysterious cult come to Haddonfield to locate Jamie's newborn child for the evil and dastardly deeds. Spooky Season is back and like usual, we are discussing Michael Myers and now we're reviewing Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers. This is the sixth installment in the Halloween franchise and by far the most convoluted. This film stars Paul Rudd in an underwhelming performance, but it's not all on him as the script is all over the place. This film not only has Michael co...
