Directed by: Matt Bettinelli-Olpin, Tyler Gillett Written by: James Vanderbilt, Guy Busick It's not easy for a horror franchise to churn out consistently enjoyable movies, especially one that spans three generations, but Scream is a rare exception.

FlixChatter Review: Bones and All (2022)
When I saw the trailer for Bones and All, I wasn't sure I wanted to watch it. I obviously love horror, but my preference leans more towards supernatural horror; bloody gore-fests aren't really my thing, and considering one of the most memorable scenes from the trailer was one girl biting another's finger off, I was …

FlixChatter Review: Hocus Pocus 2 (2022) – Not going to be a classic, but still a fun enough watch
Directed by: Anne Fletcher Like many millennials, watching Hocus Pocus this time of year is as much of a Halloween tradition as carving pumpkins. The 1993 film is a memorable, atmospheric, fun product of its time. So when it was announced that a sequel was being produced for DisneyPlus, my expectations were low, but I …
FlixChatter Review: SMILE (2022) – a well-crafted horror film that’ll get your stomach in knots
Written and directed by: Parker Finn I'll be honest- I wasn't particularly interested in Smile after seeing the trailer. The characters' sinister facial expressions reminded me of the cheesy Snapchat filter smile effect from 2018's Truth or Dare, one of the worst horror movies I've reviewed, so my hopes weren't high. However, my aunt mentioned …

Directed by: Jamison M. LoCascio, Adam Ambrosio (segment Encounter Nightly) Written by: Jamison M. LoCascio, Adam Ambrosio, Anthony LoCascio (segment Nelly) When Ruth sent me a list of screeners to choose from, How Dark They Prey immediately jumped out at me. I love a good anthology-style horror movie; it's a great way of fitting a …
