Smile (2022) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (3C)

Since Smile 2 has just been released in theaters I thought I’d review the first one which came out in September 2022 from Paramount Pictures and Parker Finn made his directorial debut. This film isn’t for everyone as it deals with suicide. However, there’s a twist like a lot of horror movies do as it’s…


The Skeleton Key (2005) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (3C)

I decided to review The Skeleton Key in honor of the recent passing of Gena Rowlands who is one of the main characters of the film; which first came to theaters back in 2005 from Universal Pictures and was directed by Iain Softley (Curve [2015]) with screenwriter Ehren Kruger (The Ring [2002]). I decided to…


Up From the Depths (1979) – By Baron Craze

CHOMPFEST 2024 After the incredible success of the Steven Spielberg’s Jaws [1975] the animals attack (aka: nature’s revenge/environmental horror) began appearing in every facet all for the b-movie market where low budgets reigned supreme and so bizarre storylines were in abundance. There was no shortage of films even if one limits themselves to the sea-fearing…


Poltergeist (1982) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (3C)

I’m sure a lot of people remember the old tube box TVs and if the cable wasn’t hooked up then the picture would be “snow.” Poltergeist’s cover art is of a little girl with her hands on the TV with the snow picture. The first time I saw this film I was technically too young,…

Staunton Hill (2009) – By Baron Craze

Being the offspring of any great legendary parent is always tough, an impossible mountain to climb, the expectations often too grand for most, they find themselves harshly judged, to escape this there are only two options either change one’s last name i.e. Nicholas Cage in connection with the Coppola’s or abandon that field; otherwise, they…


Firestarter (1984) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (3C)

I remember first seeing this film as a child during a sleepover and thought it was scary seeing someone setting something on fire on purpose. Let’s jump many years later and realize it’s just a horror film and my husband wish he had that ability – LOL, especially when his grill won’t work. This is…


Night Swim (2024) – By Creepy Crazy Cathy (3C)

I was asked to review this film by the owner of The Horror Times, and I didn’t know why until I saw the film. You see, the father in the movie has multiple sclerosis (MS) as do I, hence I could relate to it from that point of view. Well, it’s not about MS it’s…


Sting (2024) – By Baron Craze

The first horror film I ever saw was 20-Million Miles to Earth [1957] an alien creature feature, from the it was discovering this subgenre filmed with Them! [1954], Tarantula [1955], and The Spider [1958] those super large monsters were always fun to watch, however what most horror fans know is that creepy crawlies effectively work…
