Cujo - A Movie Review
There’s no such thing as monsters - only in stories. Based on the novel by Stephen King, Cujo is a 1983 film adaptation. Cujo was once a friendly St. Bernard until he contracts rabies. Donna Trenton and her young son are trapped by the vicious dog in their car during a blazing heatwave.

The best Slasher Movie isn't a Slasher movie.
Can you honestly say that the Alien franchise doesn't scare the liquids out of you? That when faced with a facehugger which jumps onto a persons face and penetrates their mouth. Forcible orally rapes said mouth and pumps alien eggs down the poor sods throat to be gestated in a human host stomach. Only for the Alien offspring to hatch later on by carving its way out/exploding out of its host's chest. Can you say that you're perfectly calm and collected with that idea?

HEREDITARY: The Horror To End All Horrors
If you were to be asked the question of what you believe is the best horror movie ever made, coming to an answer is far from a straightforward proposition, as the question is wide open to a lot of interpretation and subjectivity, with many different avenues of thought to take into account.

Movie Review: 'Possessor' is Visually Dynamic, Creepy and Violent
Possessor has me vexed. This sci-fi horror movie from the son of legendary director David Cronenberg, Brandon Cronenberg, is visually dynamic and compelling in a disturbing fashion. But, what is the movie about? I am not sure I know what Brandon Cronenberg is intending to say with this movie that carries themes about identity, gender, violence and psychopathy. It’s a film packed with ideas but none of those ideas resonates as much as I believe they should.

‘Death of Me’ Is a Waste of Time for the Audience, But a Nice Paid Vacation for the Cast and Crew
It’s not easy being a horror buff in 2020. By now, a lot of intriguing horror films should have already come out: from Spiral, the new Saw movie starring Chris Rock and Samuel L. Jackson; Antlers, director Scott Cooper’s first entry in the horror genre; Candyman, the promising new entry of the Candyman franchise, which similar to Halloween (2018), will be a direct sequel to the original and ignore the rest; and we shouldn’t forget Halloween Kills, the highly unnecessary sequel to the Halloween 2018 movie which was supposed to have come out this Halloween. Though, in all fairness, any of the follow-ups to John Carpenter’s original classic have been unnecessary.

Shhh! The worms can hear you!
Creature features are a lost art in the horror film category. What is a creature-feature you ask? It's a horror flick in which one or more monsters play a pivotal role throughout the movie. Some popular creature features that are more well-known throughout the generations are Godzilla, King Kong, and Nosferatu, also known as Dracula. However, the first documented film of its kind was called "The Golem", a lost silent film made in 1915.

'Get Out': There Is No Rose Without Thorns
Jordan Peele’s gripping directorial debut is not as gory as the other horror films I’ve seen. However, that did not stop it from making my heart leap continuously in my chest. The intro of this satirical horror-thriller had me chuckling at the humour that was injected into the film, misleading me about the terror that was in store. In Peele’s defence, he did try to subtly warn me with the lyrics of Childish Gambino’s song, Redbone, but I was too busy singing to make the connection.
