Cooties
Cooties, I nominate you for Underrated Gem. Seeing a few promos for this film over five years ago, I was intrigued. I didn't exactly keep up with the release of this little picture that could. This film completely slipped under the radar in 20015, except for Sundance and video on demand, to which it had minimal success. My need to watch this film came stumbling back to me as I found it on Peacock Streaming of all places. Finding this horror comedy at the right moment in time, movie day was set in my house. Completely forgetting this film, after its release. Happy to say this little flick packs a wallop of horror comedy and forever adds to the genre of killer kids films. Part zombie bottle movie. Part satirical improvisation sessions. For a movie from the Co-Creator of Glee and the writer/actor from Saw, this film is mostly unseen. The pairing of these two really shines as modern Leave It to Beaver style meets the characters of Glee, by way of zombie apocalypse.

‘Run’ Review—A Nail-Biting Thriller
Of all the films to skip movie theaters and go straight to a streaming service, this may be the one that hurts the most. From director Aneesh Chaganty comes Run, a mystery horror-thriller about a teenage girl named Chloe Sherman (Kiera Allen) who suffers from many illnesses and gets around in a wheelchair. She soon suspects that her mother, Diane (Sarah Paulson), has been keeping a secret from her and her investigation leads her down an incredibly disturbing rabbit hole.

Chopping Mall
I nominate the Underrated Gem, "Chopping Mall", from 1986 to be seen as an oft remembered VHS video store closing pick. As a young child I would always pass this VHS and it always caught my eye. At the time, all I had to go on was packaging art, sometimes a picture or qoute about the film. This film ran on pure imagination and speculation. I fought for a long time to rent this time capsule bathed in the mid 80's of a motion picture. I yearned to have this film bathe it's vision over me. I always had a thing for weird, out there films and art work. It has always captured the imagination. I found hope in the odd.

Soul Of A Demon
The woman brought her head back to the center and stood up. Baharsh could only imagine the pain she was in, but her unwillingness to show weakness was admirable. He waited as she gathered her thoughts, and was embarrassed when he realized he was holding his breath.

Hauntings of Williamsburg
History Williamsburg, Virginia is one of the oldest cities in American history. Dating back to around the 1630’s when it was part of the Commonwealth of Virginia, becoming its capital in 1699. Before being a colony to the new settlers, the area that is now Williamsburg was occupied by the Powhatan Confederacy, which made up at least six Native American tribes. As we know, the tribes were gradually forced out of the area over time, and those times were not always peaceful leading to bloodshed along the way.

"Keys"
“Keys” “Mr. Bulluck, please sign here”, the bank teller asked. “Here”? replied customer Jackson Bulluck as he began writing his name. “May I have your key please”, the teller asked while unlocking the slight looking aluminum door blocking entry into the bank’s vault of safe deposit boxes. Bulluck handed the key to the woman and directed her with a wave of his hand to where his box was located.

The Atlas of Fictional Places pt. 1
There are places in which you are not aware of. There are places where even the greatest explorers cannot discover. And do not get me wrong, they are the best of the best, but it is not something you can see with the untrained eye. Not many people believe me, actually no one does. Only I can see these places, these places with colours and sounds you’ve never heard of or seen and grass and trees and mountains that do not exist. Where there is no sun, but stars that provide the light. You cannot map out these places, they always change. Which make remembering and recognising very hard to do. I’m not saying that you should believe me, I am merely just saying that you should listen and I will walk you through my memories and feelings. Maybe it will happen to you too.

The Last Exorcist Movie Review
There are two kinds of horror fans out there. The first kind is always in the mood for a good demonic possession flick, while the second kind groans at the thought of watching yet another one. If you're the former, a Danny Trejo fan, or both, The Last Exorcist may well be on your running to-see list.
