Drag
(2026)
|
Josh Korngut
|
Drag is a brutally funny and startlingly original piece of body horror that introduces an all-too-relatable villain: excruciating back pain.

Last House on the Left
(1972)
|
Steve Barton
|
Despite its age Wes Craven’s 1972 shocker The Last House on the Left remains one of the hardest movies in our genre to sit through. Not because it’s bad; in fact, it’s excellent. It’s the sheer brutality of the film’s events that makes it so unsettling.

Last House on the Left
(1972)
|
Anthony Arrigo
|
The film’s only true deficiency lies with a couple bumbling cops who appear sporadically and kill tension and pacing. Otherwise, Craven’s film remains potent and primal.
