An unsatisfying end to an underwhelming trilogy, lacking scares, coherency and purpose in closing out the story of two of horror’s most iconic names.
Hellraiser (2022) – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
An update to a classic horror film that gives it a polished, competent modern sheen, but loses some of the gnarliness that made the series a standout.
Blonde – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
An excessive and tiring “biopic:, showcasing the worst moments in Marilyn Monroe’s life with no greater point than cheap shock value.
Don’t Worry Darling – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
A psychological thriller whose hollow interior is at least decorated by a engaging lead performance and intriguing visuals.
Pearl – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
A impactful horror prequel that delivers on a terrific lead performance and plenty of disturbing imagery.
Barbarian – REVIEW
A twistedly dark and funny horror film that proves that hotels are making a comeback over AirBNB’s.
Jaws – NEW COCKTAIL
Revisiting a classic film and building upon a past cocktail to create the boozy and tropical Blood in the Water!
Three Thousand Years of Longing – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
A fantastical reflection on the importance of stories that leads with a strong beginning that unfortunately stalls out by the third act.
Prey – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
A horror franchise prequel that actually succeeds in crafting compelling characters and solid action while remaining true to the source.
Bodies Bodies Bodies – REVIEW & COCKTAIL
An often hilarious black comedy that satirizes Gen Z, but struggles to bring memorable scares or interesting spins on the murder mystery genre.
