"First viewing - Dec. 23rd Some horror writers sang the praises of this film earlier this year, so I wanted to check it out. And now it's among my favorite slashers. It doesn't reinvent the style, but it is a fresh spin, well-crafted with solidly developed characters. If you have Shudder & haven't seen it, give it a look. Streaming on Shudder"

Movies I Watched in April 2021 (39 movies items)

" Date: 4/13/2021 Viewed: Blu-Ray (Code Red) First Viewing Note: Just Before Dawn is a classic horror movie that I never saw until now. I always hear that the movie was never fully uncut which is why I never watched it growing up. Thankfully, the Blu-ray from Code Red is uncut and I end up buying a copy on Amazon (I could not find any streaming services that were playing this movie). To be honest, I was let down by it. Just Before Dawn is an average movie at best. I don't get the hype for Jus"

"Hillbilly twins chase down campers, sounds generic but it actually holds itself to a higher standard with it's grim atmosphere, deliberate pace, and beautiful locations. "

"Generic slasher. Could've been much better, especially since the killers pretty cool. However, the characters are very forgettable. There are only five and the ones that die die in the same period of time. The rest of the movie follows the survivors sitting around, doing nothing. Also, some characters just come in and they will completely leave the film randomly and are never heard from again. 4/10"
