‘The Exorcist: Believer’ Conjures Double The Horror In First Trailer

Exactly 50 years ago this fall, the most terrifying horror film in history opened in theaters, shocking audiences around the world, leaving some passed out. Now, this October, a new chapter begins. From Blumhouse and director David Gordon Green, who resurrected the Halloween franchise, comes The Exorcist: Believer. “Since the death of his pregnant wife in a Haitian earthquake 12 years ago, Victor Fielding (Tony winner and Oscar® nominee Leslie Odom, Jr.; One Night in Miami, Hamilton) has raised their daughter, Angela (Lidya Jewett, Good Girls) on his own.

Movie Review: ‘Cobweb’ Is Creepy As Sh*t

I watch A LOT of horror movies; it’s one of the best parts of my gig. So you can understand that I’ve become a bit jaded, hard to impress, and even harder to scare. But once in a while, a movie will come along that, by some miracle, can get under my skin. That’s the case with director Samuel Bodin’s new horror Cobweb. In the film, “A mysterious, constant tap plagues, Eight-year-old Peter taps from inside his bedroom wall – a tapping that his parents insist is all in his imagination. As Peter’s fear intensifies, he believes his parents (Lizzy Caplan and Antony Starr) could be hiding a terrible, dangerous secret and questioning their trust. And for a child, what could be more frightening than that?” The film and the cinematography look absolutely fantastic. The movie has a rich look that plays off shadows and hidden spaces. The special effects, which were surprisingly mostly practical, were really well done, especially

Movie Review: No Sympathy For ‘Sympathy For The Devil’

From writer-director Luke Paradise comes Sympathy for the Devil. The film stars Nicolas Cage (Renfield) as an unhinged psychopath who kidnaps a man (Joel Kinnaman) at gunpoint, taking viewers on a wild ride during a night filled with action and insanity. While en route to the hospital where his wife is in labor, a man is taken at gunpoint by a red-headed stranger and is forced to drive him to various locations where the stranger takes out his anger by killing innocent people. The stranger is played by Nicolas Cage, who comes off like a sadistic asshole with zero f*cks to give. He’s clearly unhinged, but not in a good way. It’s just weird. Maybe I expect too much out of Cage, I mean, he’s usually an expert at playing crazy. As for Joel Kinnaman, who starred as the driver, a worried husband, and father, he did a fine job. However, his character is lackluster and a bit boring. We
