Grizzly Night (2026) EDIT “That being said, Grizzly Night is an entertaining watch. There are some disgustingly good gore effects following the attacks and the brisk pacing keeps things moving. The grounded approach is surprising, but is perfect for the story being told. ” – AIPT Jan 28, 2026 Full Review Worldbreaker (2025) 55% EDIT “Boullet and Evans are fine in their respective roles, but it always feels like the story has more to say. This is seen most in the final act of World Breaker. After about an hour of training and worldbuilding, the climax feels rushed. ” – AIPT Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Dooba Dooba (2024) 91% EDIT “Dooba Dooba is filled with moments that will get an audible reaction. Some are incredibly uncomfortable and will make the audience worry what is going to happen next. This is especially true of the chaotic third act which sees the most disgusting acts.” – AIPT Jan 21, 2026 Full Review Mother of Flies (2025) 96% EDIT “Everything said feels real and urgent. The performances are the deciding factor that make Mother of Flies a creepily fun watch.” – AIPT Jan 20, 2026 Full Review Hell House LLC: Lineage (2025) 26% EDIT “The change from found footage takes away all tension, while the decision to add more lore to the already convoluted backstory is frustrating. This may end up being the last Hell House LLC movie no matter what the future plans are.” – AIPT Oct 29, 2025 Full Review The WeedHacker Massacre (2024) EDIT “It has some funny moments and decent kills. Unfortunately, just as much does not land. Add in too many characters and motivations and the film ends up being more disappointing than fun. ” – AIPT Oct 15, 2025 Full Review Beast of War (2025) 89% 8/10 EDIT “Tightly paced sharksploitation movie focuses on characters instead of being over the top. The shark action is also awesome.” – AIPT Oct 8, 2025 Full Review Good Boy (2025) 90% 9/10 EDIT “Yes, it is gimmicky, but that is not a bad thing. Emotionally powerful, one of the best dog performances of all time, and scary. A moving story about friendship” – AIPT Oct 2, 2025 Full Review Bone Lake (2024) 84% 8/10 EDIT “Erotic horror movie plays with its audience instead of shooting its whole load.” – AIPT Oct 1, 2025 Full Review V/H/S Halloween (2025) 89% 8/10 EDIT “The V/H/S franchise continues to chug along with one of its strongest entries. From jump scares to gross out laughs, to uncomfortable scenes, the new installment is a treat.” – AIPT Oct 1, 2025 Full Review The Toxic Avenger (2023) 87% EDIT “While there are some fun references (an ‘I Love the Monster’ shirt, Melvin Ferd makes an appearance, Nuke ‘Em High), it is its own story. It is definitely not for everyone, but it is a worthy addition to the franchise. ” – AIPT Aug 27, 2025 Full Review Somnium (2024) 81% EDIT “Stories involving dreams can be difficult to tell, but Cain is able to deftly pull it off in a strong debut. Levine is incredible and will draw audiences in and there is an overall creepy element to it all that will appeal to fans of genre cinema. ” – AIPT Aug 26, 2025 Full Review Darkman (1990) 80% 8.5/10 EDIT “The back to comic book basics storytelling along with an impressive score cover over most of the deficiencies. And the cast and crew is an amazing collection of talent.” – AIPT Aug 24, 2025 Full Review Witchboard (2024) 59% EDIT “There are some good kills and New Orleans is always a great setting for a horror story. Witchboard is fine for putting on in the background, but any deeper investment will be disappointing. ” – AIPT Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Red Sonja (2025) 56% EDIT “The colors pop off the screen and there is some great creature design. There are also some great fight scenes. It is an all around fun movie that finally gives Sonja the adaptation she deserves. ” – AIPT Aug 12, 2025 Full Review Descendent (2025) 88% EDIT “Descendent ends up being one big metaphor and how impressed a person is by that will determine how much they enjoy the movie. There are some good visuals and the performances from the main couple are top notch. ” – AIPT Aug 8, 2025 Full Review Animale (2024) 94% EDIT “Animale is an atmospheric watch. The more dreamlike (or in some cases, nightmarish) moments are the highlight. It is in these scenes that things are most tense and the characters most interesting. ” – AIPT Aug 7, 2025 Full Review Holy Night: Demon Hunters (2025) 79% 8/10 EDIT “Don Lee (Train to Busan) is a throwback action movie star. He would fit perfectly into the testosterone laden 1980s Hollywood landscape. He is overflowing with charisma and absolutely commands the screen. ” – AIPT Aug 3, 2025 Full Review The School Duel (2024) 85% EDIT “The plot runs out of steam and a couple of reveals end up being repeated with different characters. The ending ends up being a strange bait and switch. Thankfully, none of this takes away from the powerful message.” – AIPT Aug 3, 2025 Full Review I Live Here Now (2025) 86% EDIT “I Live Here Now is an exhausting watch. Even in its more patient moments, there is a sense of dread and tension. This is especially true of the final act when things move at a frantic pace. The plot has a lot to say and the performances are great.” – AIPT Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Terrestrial (2025) 75% EDIT “There is good tension and some shocking moments, but tonally it feels off. The sci-fi aspects which open things up end up meaning little in the grand scheme of things. It ends up being more disappointing than anything else.” – AIPT Jul 21, 2025 Full Review Traumatika (2024) 68% EDIT “Pierre Tsigardis is able to walk the thin line between scaring the audience and not exploiting familial trauma. The result is a movie that is both shocking and terrifying. ” – AIPT Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Pins and Needles (2024) EDIT “There are some good gore scenes and the villains are kinda funny. Over the top moments bring a layer of camp that the film should have leaned more into. It may want to be more, but it ends up being entertaining fluff.” – AIPT Jun 24, 2025 Full Review Bleeding (2024) 83% EDIT “The third act is filled with blood and death and all of it is because of a powerful drug. It may not be a typical vampire movie, but Bleeding is just as terrifying. ” – AIPT Jun 10, 2025 Full Review Dog of God (2025) 87% EDIT “Dog of God is definitely not for everybody. Along with its deeper subject matter, it is filled with nudity, sex, and violence. Nothing is gratuitous, however. Everything that happens is part of the grown up fairy tale. ” – AIPT Jun 10, 2025 Full Review
