Reviewing the best (and worst) of horror, sci-fi and fantasy since 2000


Tourist Trap (1979)
A memorable oddity of a late 70s horror film with a killer who has a taste for telekenesis and turning people into mannequins.

Shark Season (2020)
The killer shark flick hits rock bottom is this dreadful Asylum flick.
