Late last year we were all excitedly anticipating the release of The Hunt – a joint collaboration between Universal Pictures and Blumhouse – then, a series of horrible mass shootings occurred and all involved with the production thought it prudent to hold off on the release and since then – we haven’t heard squat – […]
Been many rumors floating around about the upcoming 8th season of American Horror Story. We found out a week or so back that it will be a crossover season between the pilot season, Murder House and the very popular Coven season from a few years back. What we didn’t know was – what […]
After hitting the festival circuit as a film titled February in 2015, The Blackcoat’s Daughter eventually inked a distribution deal with A24 and finally received a limited theatrical and VOD release on March 31, 2017. It’s a bit of a puzzlement as to why it took so long to wrangle distribution. The Blackcoat’s Daughter is […]
James Remar made a big impression in 1979 with the second film he appeared in, The Warriors, and he’s never looked back. He’s appeared in dozens of films like The Long Riders (1980), 48 Hours (1982), Band Of The Hand (1986), Tales From The Darkside: The Movie (1990), The Phantom (1996) and Mortal Kombat: Annihilation […]
The official trailer for writer/director Osgood Perkins’ The Blackcoat’s Daughter is out, and boy does it look creepy. Originally title February, the trailer evokes that wintery month, with its muted colors and snowscapes. It is the tale of two girls (Lucy Boynton and Kiernan Shipka) stuck at an empty prep school during winter break and, […]
This review contains spoilers. Well, Grue-believers, the finale of Scream Queens departed with a 2-part episode. The season overall is a winner for me with hilarious quips, great sarcasm, ingenious insults and just downright swell acting, directing and writing. With that being said, let’s jump in to see if the finale holds up. I won’t […]
This review contains spoilers. I wanted to start this review by saying Happy Thanksgiving to the Grue-believers out there. Things I’m thankful for in the realm of Scream Queens: I have not been completely Murphy’d yet, Chad and his Radness, the casting of the show especially Jamie Lee Curtis as Dean Munsch, Emma Roberts as […]
This review contains spoilers. Scream Queens has been solid most of the season despite being a Ryan Murphy property. During the Gruesome Magazine/Horror News Radio podcast we did this weekend (you should be able to download soon), Doc posed the question whether I thought this would be a continuation series or a new story with […]
This review contains spoilers. Well, friends, when I left you all last week, I was angry at the thought of being Murphy’d. I still haven’t watched anything past the first episode of American Horror Story Hotel because the first episode was such a steaming pile of…well, you know. On a much better note I will […]
Let me first apologize for the lateness of this review. Life has been pretty busy but in a good way. Anyway, Scream Queens is back after taking a one week break because of the World Series. Happily one week was all it took for the Royals to dismantle the Mets (Sorry, Santos, but as a […]
Scream Queens, what can I say, I hated it and now I kind of love it. It is quirky, goofy, over the top, offensive and hilarious – if you are into this type of humor. For some reason, it works for me. The tone of the show is Scream-ish on steroids. I mean who doesn’t […]
As you all know, your resident Thug hated Scream Queens with its first few episodes. But it looks as if the horror comedy proves you can soften a thug, somewhat, over time. I now look at this show as an over-the-top comedy with just a dash of horror and a sprinkling of Ryan Murphy. By […]
Another episode of Scream Queens hits FOX and we are at episode four of this train wreck. Much like that crash that everyone slows down to “rubber neck,” I can’t look away. I’m not quite sure why. The sheer idiocy of the characters is entertaining on some level, Jamie Lee Curtis is superb as Dean […]
The third episode of Scream Queens, titled “Chainsaw,” is giving me cause to pause… Where do I begin? I’m not that old that I don’t have the capacity to enjoy a hip new show. I definitely have the capacity to tell if a show that is trying way too hard to be new and hip […]
For those of you that have been following my Fear The Walking Dead reviews, you all know my hate/hate relationship with that show. After watching the pilot for Scream Queens, which airs on the Fox on Tuesdays at 9 pm, I may prefer FTWD! Bold statement? YEP! This show reminds me of a dreadful mixture […]
