SOUTH JERSEY HORROR

Stemming from the original movie from 1979, the general consensus states that the 2005 rendition is an over exaggeration. I will have to say that I disagree because it has proven to be a terrific movie with fast and furious energy, a lot of jolts that never linger, and the morbidly horrific images anchor the strong characters. One character in specific is Jodie Defeo, played by the talented Isabel Champ Connor who flawlessly delive...

With Christmas just a few days away, I thought that I would bring you all some Christmas fear with the precise recipe for a holiday horror blend that delivers a fresh take on the 1984 original. This is a movie that you cannot hate; not only does it preach good tidings, but Santa kills Nazis and he also delivers satisfying brain-busting kills.

I sat down with David and got the gist of the movie, and I am very happy to have the conve...

In 1987 Clive Barker brought us Hellraiser and the Cenobites. In 2022 another movie was introduced to us, and it brought back the decades-old franchise with this 11th installment. With this movie closely following Clive Barker’s The Hellbound Heart, there is balance in beauty and horror and it’s not to be mistaken for a reboot, it’s quite the opposite. Hopefully my guest today can help us understand just that.

I absolutely love thi...

First, I would like to point out that the sequel is much better than the first movie due to the impressively accurate video game animatronics that actually look scary. Secondly, another thing I was very impressed with is Audrey Lynn-Marie’s flawless performance in which I believe that her entire personality won the audience.

I am still in shock and in disbelief that I had the huge honor and pleasure to speak to Audrey about her role...

From a horror perspective, Jester 2 delivers where it counts. The kills are clever, cruel, and it’s a great representation leaning into the Trickster's dark magician theme. Illusions bleed into existence, traps unfold like deadly tricks, and every set piece feels designed to keep viewers on edge. It may not push gore to Terrifier levels, but it doesn't need to-the creativity behind the kills keeps things fresh. And with a b...

After watching the series (so far), I’d like to say that I'm thoroughly enjoying it, and I am highly impressed with the acting. This fully embraces the fantastical scenes and effects for those horror and monster moments. However, one character really stands out, and that is Lilly Bainbridge – portrayed by the talented Clara Stack and her performance has been nothing short of paramount.

If I said it was an honor and pleasure spe...

I’d like to point out that this movie is suspenseful, well invented, and the acting is phenomenal. The directing and cinematography are both paramount and it feels like a true love letter that honors the horror genre and this is coming from me, someone who loves and appreciates found footage. I feel the creators and the actors truly understood what audiences expected from them and overall, this movie is well blended, and it is a so...

The Conjuring Franchise has brought us some of the best and scariest movies of all time and to include it’s last and final installment, a farewell to the Warrens. But it gets better. I sat down with Leigh Jones, who in my opinion, portrays the scariest character in the movie, Abner (also known as the “Axeman). Leigh is a very talented actor who delivered his role flawlessly.

That would be an understatement in my introduction for th...

Everyone knows that I cannot stand mannequins and what history they have in horror movies, just looking at them are deeply unsettling and yet somehow John Berardo was able to resurrect that feeling tenfold in his new film. Ultimately, it’s about the cruelty of women, reckoning with the past and how cycles nearly always repeat themselves.

I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jack and spoke to him about his role as a serial killer...

April Fool’s Day has always been a favorite of mine since I discovered it on VHS and to me, it’s always been the perfect anti-slasher, where no one in the film really dies (unless you count the film’s missing ending), and instead leans into the whodunit aspects that are driving the mystery. Deborah, who is a legendary actress who lit up the screens in Valley Girl and who continues to light up Hollywood with her talent and her magni...

Although this movie is considered meta-physical, it does have some Nightmare on Elm Street vibes and Black Phone 2 is definitely an effective sequel that delivers reinvigoration. The Grabber, just like Freddy Krueger, is able to wreak psychic and physical violence on people from within their dreams which makes it a genuine top shelf movie for me.

What a cool interview! Talking to Maev and getting the inside scoop of this movie is p...

I cannot emphasize enough of how V/H/S/Halloween continues to impress the audiences worldwide. Being part of such a spectacular franchise, this movie hit all of the Halloween aspects but with a little twist in each segment. Moreover, the actresses in the segment Coochie Coochie Coo deliver an exceptional performance.

I am honored to have spoken to Natalia about her role in what I think is the creepiest segment in the movie. I have t...

From what I have read online, it looks like this movie is tons of fun. From watching the preview, It’s like Poultrygeist meets The Thing with a touch of Evil Dead thrown in for good measure. However, I also get the feeling that the audience will have sympathy for the victims because of the on-screen chemistry.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Jada and get to know more about her character, the movie, the special effects, the p...

I cannot stress enough on how well this movie is made… It is definitely a surprising shock to audiences with something new, especially for the horror genre. Even if you think you have everything figured out with the cryptic clues, there is an unexpected plot twist. With a little 1980s essence added to the film, it will grind your casual evening straight into your worst nightmares.

What a wonderful interview! Speaking to Susan and J...

Schism is a psychological horror which carries the perspective of woman vs. self as we follow Nola on a journey that has her battling to recollect her sanity. Overall, this movie is paramount; we never know which way is up, what is actually real, and what exists in Nola’s mind. The thrilling separation that she’s become a part of is something that consistently creeps into the film as a result of its extraordinary setting.

What a ph...

Every now and then, we get to watch a movie that excels in a genre, that is the case with this movie. I am pleased to say Night of the Reaper is a pleasant surprise and you can appreciate it's throwback attempt, which was well done. This is a solid horror film and well worth the watch. The lead actress and the sheriff carry the heavy workload, and they deliver.

What an absolute gem! I love this interview, and I cannot stress th...

After watching the movie yesterday, I can honestly say that I thoroughly enjoyed it and it’s a delightful treat wrapped up with a promise to scare you. In other words, it’s a devilish good time that brings back a lot of nostalgic fuzziness that not only looks great, but it’s an endearing love letter to the Satanic Panic.

It was great speaking to Riley about his role in this film and gaining the insight behind the set productions, t...

WARNING: This episode contains spoliers!

I cannot think of better way to start off October and the spooky season with the newest installment of the V/H/S Franchise because Halloween is approaching fast and therefore this is the perfect time. From what I understand, this is now the darkest and funniest entry yet and it remains a touchstone of the found footage sub-genre to this day.

It was great to sit down with Lawson and to get ...

Often do I catch myself watching a movie about Dracula style vampires but the way they're depicted in 30 Days of Night are how I'd imagine vampires would be in real life- brutal and near indescribable killing machines. That premise being vampires being allowed to run berserk in Alaska during a 30-day period when there is no sun to force them into hibernation during the day. It’s simple yet fresh enough to maintain my intere...
