 | Founders DayMovie Review Blood, Masks, and… Democracy?! If you thought politics was already scary enough, Founders Day takes electoral terror to a whole new level. This slasher with a patriotic twist blends elections, mystery, and a masked serial killer sporting a judge’s wig, ready to enforce his own laws… with a bloody gavel! The tone is a mix between Scream and a presidential debate… except here, if you answer wrong, you don’t just lose votes—you lose your head! The performances are surprisingly solid for an indie horror film, with believable young leads and an antagonist who knows how to leave a lasting impression. The... Read More |
 | Deep redMovie Review Dario Argento, with Deep Red, creates one of the cornerstones of the Italian giallo, a film that mixes thriller and horror with a visual and narrative mastery that is still unmatched today. It was March 7, 1975 when it arrived for the first time in Italian cinemas, the film consolidated the director's success and laid the foundations for his unmistakable style, made of saturated colors, bold shots and a tension that grows until the final explosion. |
 | Killer Klowns from Outer SpaceMovie Review Killer Klowns from Outer Space it is a film made with little means but with great ingenuity by the Chiodo brothers. A mix of horror, thriller and science fiction that intrigues, disturbs and entertains. Despite being a b-movie, it pays homage to more famous films in fact the killer clowns are very reminiscent of "It" by Stephen King. The plot is simple: an alien spaceship shaped like a circus tent lands in Crescent Cove, from which clowns descend and capture the inhabitants to feed on them. Memorable is the scene in which one of them enchants the crowd with Chinese shadows, finally transforming them into a dinosaur that devours... Read More |
 | The House That Jack BuiltMovie Review Yet another controversial and highly disturbing film, which confirms Lars Von Trier as a provocative and unconventional director. The House That Jack Built is an extremely raw authorial horror, designed for an audience with a strong stomach. The film follows a circular structure in which the color red is a recurring element. Von Trier mixes images of works of art, clips from documentaries on concentration camps, cartoons and fragments of his previous films, creating a complex interweaving of symbols and references. Through a powerful visual force, he tries to strike even those who might get lost among the many... Read More |
 | Don't Look NowMovie Review A suggestive and deeply layered reinterpretation of a universal fairy tale like Little Red Riding Hood, which finds in its protagonists, Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie, two extraordinary interpreters. However, the director eludes any predefined scheme, escapes conventions and leads the viewer on a labyrinthine, almost subliminal path. What on the surface seems like a parapsychological horror, complete with a hunt for a serial killer, actually turns out to be a work of extraordinary complexity: an investigation into the reworking of grief within a couple, into the tension between faith and rationality, into the unfathomable...

 | Halloween EndsMovie Review The film closes the David Gordon Green trilogy that began in 2018 and continued in 2021 with Halloween Kills, it is branded Blumhouse and this should be the last chapter (but will it really be like that we all wonder) of the saga that began in 1978 by John Carpenter. The era of Michael Myers ends, the most irrepressible killer in the history of horror cinema ever, mentor of every bloodthirsty masked homicidal maniac who came after him. There is certainly the intent to pay homage to the dark atmospheres of the progenitor film but also the desire to surprise, by inserting an absolutely new bad guy to act as a sidekick to good old...

 | Scream VIMovie Review Sixth chapter of "Scream", and I would say it would be better to end it here, so as not to bore and above all disappoint those, like me, who strongly loved the film created in 1996 by the genius of Wes Craven, already a cult author with "Nightmare". That film invented a real genre of its own, mixing together slasher, teen movie and black comedy, and became a cult object for the millennial generation and beyond. Returning to this last episode that moves the story from the province to the big city in an attempt to make itself more fascinating in the eyes of teenagers, it is perhaps the worst of the entire saga, 2...

 | LonglegsMovie Review A satanic and unrecognizable Nicolas Cage in one of the most complex and successful horror films of the year. Oz Perkins, son of the iconic Anthony (Psycho) directs a horror for adults, finally without screaming and laughing teenagers. Very beautiful images in a sulphurous, depressing and morbid atmosphere... it reminds us of cornerstones such as "The Silence of the Lambs" in particular for how it proposes the detective-killer scheme. |
 | MaxxxineMovie Review The film is the last chapter of a trilogy that always stars the talented Mia Goth, here supported by a great cast of actors, especially Kevin Bacon. |
 | CandymanMovie Review In this unfairly forgotten film, Bernard Rose proposes a terrible genius loci: in fact a popular area (Cabrini-Green) seems to be manned by Candyman, a bloodthirsty spirit that guts with a hook anyone who summons him in front of the mirror. Helen finds him out by chance, collecting interviews for her thesis on contemporary folklore. After discovering that some years earlier, precisely in the Cabrini-Green, some violent homicides remained unpunished, Helen hypothesizes to have mistakenly collected only narratives, concerning real events that have been modified, year by year, by word of...
