Not necessarily new releases of 2023 (sorry, M3GAN), but just any monster movie I came across in 2023. Nor are these necessarily established classics (i.e. The Day the Earth Stood Still, RoboCop, The Rocky Horror Picture Show), but perhaps diamonds-in-the-rough or otherwise underrated gems. For fans of horror, sci-fi, or fantasy, I can't recommend the following … Continue reading The Best Monster Movies Seen in 2023

The Hot-Button Horror of Barbarian | Review
Horror has always been a genre ripe for social allegory: from The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari to Night of the Living Dead to Get Out, filmmakers have smuggled potentially explosive commentary into mainstream entertainment through the guise of spectacular genre fiction.

Abbott and Costello Go to Mars; Meet Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde; Meet the Mummy | Review
