Imposters (2026) EDIT “Your underestimation, plus the riveting performances, ultimately works in this movie's favor.” – Tales from the Paulside Mar 21, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 76% EDIT “So if going bigger is all that was required of it, then Here I Come more than exceeds.” – Tales from the Paulside Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Capturing Bigfoot (2026) EDIT “When it seems like there's nothing new to say about the Patterson-Gimlin film, it turns out there is something else: the truth. And if you can bear just one more cryptid documentary, the truth is what you ultimately get in Marq Evans' Capturing Bigfoot.” – Tales from the Paulside Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Hokum (2026) 95% EDIT “Comparable horror films would go through the motions of a haunted hotel and its affected occupants. Hokum, on the other hand, does it all with sincerity. And that there is why it is heads above the rest.” – Tales from the Paulside Mar 15, 2026 Full Review War Machine (2026) 69% 2/5 EDIT “This new clash between military brawn and extraterrestrial precision gets points for simply going bigger with its alien antagonist, but nearly everything else in this movie is underwhelming.” – Bloody Disgusting Mar 6, 2026 Full Review Broken Lizard's Club Dread (2004) 31% 2.5/5 EDIT “It’s only once the comedy troupe and their collaborators add their personal touches to the material does this movie feel a lot more effective, not to mention memorable.” – Bloody Disgusting Feb 27, 2026 Full Review How to Make a Killing (2026) 43% 2/5 EDIT “There is that idea that you should take a movie for what it is, rather than what it isn't. Yet with How to Make a Killing, that's all you can think about.” – Tales from the Paulside Feb 18, 2026 Full Review Gale: Yellow Brick Road (2026) 2/5 EDIT “The lack of cool-downs and breathers, plus the hasty pacing, indeed ensures this film is as nightmarish as possible; however, in the long run, not much of this nightmare will probably be remembered once it is over.” – Bloody Disgusting Feb 11, 2026 Full Review Grizzly Night (2026) 53% 2/5 EDIT “Delivers the facts and, apart from a gruesome moment or two, not much of anything else that’s really worth noting.” – Bloody Disgusting Jan 21, 2026 Full Review The Confession (2025) 2/5 EDIT “This movie gets bogged down by its own tropey beginnings and so-so follow-through that the ending, which is admittedly what made The Confession a bit worthwhile, almost doesn't feel deserved.” – Tales from the Paulside Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Killer Whale (2026) 20% 1/5 EDIT “Killer Whale's trailer made it obvious what was washing ashore, and quite honestly, it should have stayed out to sea, never to be seen or heard from again.” – Tales from the Paulside Jan 16, 2026 Full Review Death Name (2026) 2.5/5 EDIT “Death Name has visible shortcomings, but in this case, you can hopefully look past that and appreciate the intriguingly unconventional story on full display.” – Tales from the Paulside Jan 11, 2026 Full Review Sleepwalker (2026) 14% 1.5/5 EDIT “Maybe the starting material would have better served as an anthology segment, as opposed to something that feels stretched beyond its limits.” – Bloody Disgusting Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Savage Hunt (2025) 1.5/5 EDIT “This movie simply has no idea what it wants to be or do, despite the audience showing up for a killer bear story.” – Bloody Disgusting Dec 3, 2025 Full Review The Boneyard (1990) 3.5/5 EDIT “After one viewing of this hidden gem, you’ll be thankful it exists. Hell, you might even come back for seconds.” – Bloody Disgusting Nov 25, 2025 Full Review Wes Craven's New Nightmare (1994) 78% 4/5 EDIT “[An] ambitious blur of reality and fantasy.” – Bloody Disgusting Oct 14, 2025 Full Review Dolly (2025) 62% 2.5/5 EDIT “Dolly understood the assignment, even if the assignment was, more or less, a regurgitation.” – Tales from the Paulside Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Urban Legends: Final Cut (2000) 12% 3/5 EDIT “As a largely standalone story, one with an occasional giallo quality to its aesthetic and a self-reflexive plot to keep you engaged, [Urban Legends: Final Cut] is a cut above other lower-profile slashers from the same era. ” – Bloody Disgusting Sep 22, 2025 Full Review Coyotes (2025) 59% 2.5/5 EDIT “Coyotes isn't a standard 'when animals attack' movie, and perhaps that's for the best.” – Tales from the Paulside Sep 21, 2025 Full Review Primate (2025) 78% 3.5/5 EDIT “From almost start to finish, Primate, much like the rabid [chimp], doesn't ever let up.” – Tales from the Paulside Sep 19, 2025 Full Review They're Watching (2016) 50% EDIT “The execution of the ending is what seals the deal here. And let me tell you, the outcome is worth the wait.” – Tales from the Paulside Sep 12, 2025 Full Review Mind Games (1989) EDIT “While never quite reaching its potential for memorable mayhem, [Mind Games] delivered just enough cheap thrills to keep you watching.” – Tales from the Paulside Aug 26, 2025 Full Review Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (2010) 61% 2.5/5 EDIT “Its technical merits can’t fix an overlong and repetitive story that fizzles out before the last leg.” – Bloody Disgusting Aug 26, 2025 Full Review Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (1973) 75% 4/5 EDIT “[Don't Be Afraid of the Dark] didn’t have too much money to spend, but it compensates with a priceless amount of atmosphere.” – Bloody Disgusting Aug 26, 2025 Full Review The Severed Arm (1973) EDIT “It's movies like this that make me love '70s horror.” – Tales from the Paulside Aug 23, 2025 Full Review
