Shaky Shivers (2023)
One thing you can’t accuse Sung Kang’s horror comedy of being is boring. It might not re-invent the wheel in the realm of horror comedies, but it never is actually boring. Sung Kang manages to concoct what is basically a comedy about two best friends tested to their limits when one of the friends is wholly convinced that she might turn in to a werewolf very soon. Along the way there are so many hilarious incidents as well as events that seem to indicate director Kang was intent on throwing everything in their movie but the kitchen sink in its ninety minute run time.
Gangnam Zombies (2023)
In the neighborhood of Gangnam in Seoul, folks head to work expecting another boring day at the office. Soon, some of the citizens start showing odd behaviors and symptoms. What looks like a COVID-19 issue at first turns out to be much more than that.
Shaky Shivers (2023)
Two young women head to a cabin in the woods where they meet with monsters of all kinds, armed only with a book of spells to save themselves.
The Exorcist (1973): 50th Anniversary Edition [4K UHD/Digital HD]
William Friedkin’s unfortunate passing in 2023 sadly came during the celebration of one of his all time greatest cinematic masterpieces. This year “The Exorcist” celebrated its 50th anniversary and its legacy has continued thriving. It’s heralded as a horror and cinematic masterpiece by some, it’s despised by religious circles, and it’s yet to be duplicated in impact and influence. This year the studios have pulled out all the stops with licensing merchandise, re-releasing the film in to theaters and of course the 50th anniversary edition of the film on 4K UHD.
The Nun II (2023)
I still think that James Wan and “The Conjuring” universe still has a great villain in the demonic nun Valak, and “The Nun II” is on the right track to fully realizing her potential. Despite still being sorely under utilized, “The Nun II” still crosses the finish as a solid horror thriller with some great mystery and some surefire scary images that should earn its place in the gamut of “The Conjuring” movie series. I also quite enjoy how the movie just has a better grasp on its tone, allowing for a movie that’s definitely scary, and not too concerned with its dramatic tone.
Satanic Hispanics (2022)
“Satanic Hispanics” really is an experiment that I want to see more of. Not only is it a great horror film, but it’s also a pretty great horror anthology that implements the Latin folklore very well and creatively. It’s an admirably ambitious film one packed with so much talent in front of and behind the camera, and it might even spark some interest by horror fans to delve deeper in to the Latin folklore and monsters. “Satanic Hispanics” is an anthology of five short films from some of the leading Latin filmmakers in the horror genre. The cast in each short are predominantly Latin with a slew of stellar supporting actors and actresses alike.
