Tensions Rise As A Group Is Isolated Due To A Biological Threat In ‘Darkness in Tenement 45’

With food dwindling and Martha’s controversial role as leader expanding, Joanna rallies the children in an attempt to save the building.

‘Human Hibachi’ Deemed To Extreme By Amazon

The blood-drenched indie cannibal horror Human Hibachi was set to arrive on Amazon this month but has now been banned on Amazon due to its intense, horrific, and graphic nature. But don’t worry, you can still witness the carnage this month on the official Human Hibachi website. In the film, a man documents his girlfriend’s 35th birthday on his phone. What he captures throughout the night are the most disturbing human acts imaginable. So when I made this film, I knew some of the stuff that I put in it might exclude us from platforms like Amazon, however, I wanted to see my vision through so I wasn’t going to let that hold me back. The main goal was to make something different… something that will be remembered and I’ll take that over being rejected by a platform any day.” Director Mario Cerrito states. Elizabeth Gaynor, Carmine Giordano, Wataru Nishida, Carley Harper, Sopheaktra Theng, Andrew Hunsicker, John Campanile, and Stafford

Netflix Review: "The Haunting of Bly Manor" Is Not Perfectly Splendid

Netflix Review: “The Haunting of Bly Manor” Is Not Perfectly Splendid

Last year, when Netflix aired the genre series “The Haunting of Hill House,” I had no clue that a series could ever reach the ranks it did in my book. A nearly perfect series unfolded before, and I was left bragging about it to anyone who would listen. I’ve seen the series four times since the first time I was introduced to the Crian family. So imagine my excitement when “The Haunting of Bly Manor” was announced; I was ecstatic, to put it mildly. With many of “Hill House’s” cast returning, I knew in my heart that this season would be just as good as the first; you could say that I had high hopes. But did it stand up to my expectations? That’s what I’m here to discuss. Based on Henry James’ “Turning of the Screw” as well as a few other of James’ stories, “The Haunting of Bly Manor” is a haunting tale of a young American teacher
