4K-UHD Review: Candyman (1992)

4K-UHD Review: Candyman (1992)

Helen (Virginia Madsen) and her friend Bernadette (Kasi Lemmons) are just a couple o’ ladies on their way to complete a thesis at the college they attend… a thesis revolving around the local urban legend of a supernatural menace known as the Candyman (the legendary Tony Todd) who has been rumored to stalk the absolute living nightmare of the tenements of Chicago’s Cabrini-Green if anyone is foolish enough to utter his name five times before a mirror. And why wouldn’t they strut right on into the horribly depressed an violent projects? I mean besides the dangerous fellows out front, there’s the matter of the very real titular grotesquery; a son of a slave that was murdered for falling in love with a white woman who has come back from the dead with a real hatred for… well, everyone.

8 Best College Campus Horror Movies You’ve Never Heard Of

There are many types of settings loved by horror film lovers, and the college campus setting is one of those. College students don’t know how to get themselves out of trouble, probably due to their newfound freedom.

There are usually issues with parties going wrong and dangerous figures hiding behind the shadows. If you’re a lover of college campus horror, these are some movies you should look to watch. 1. Kristy Justine stays on campus alone due to her financial struggles when everything traveled for thanksgiving. Even with her financial issues, she helps a girl at the local convenience store pay for what she purchased and finds herself in trouble afterward. She becomes targeted

Movie Review: Disaster Movie 'Shattered Earth' Isn't A Disaster

Watch The Trailer For The Epic Disaster-Thriller ‘Shattered Earth’ – Out This August

The only genre I love as much as horror is disaster movies. Maybe I just want to watch the world burn (on TV). But good disaster movies are hard to find, so when I came across the killer trailer for the Chinese-made, English Language blockbuster Shattered Earth, I got damn near giddy. In the film, “A peaceful town turns into a living hell when a devastating earthquake is triggered, causing buildings to tumble and sinkholes to open. A retired railway soldier and his son, an explosives engineer, travel deep into a cave to rescue trapped survivors. However, a second terrifying quake is just hours away, threatening to bury the whole town and everyone in it.” Trinity CineAsia presents the action-packed disaster film, Shattered Earth, coming to DVD on August 29, 2022, and 0n Digital on September 12th.
