The Invitation (2022). Fantastic premise and direction right up until the last 20 minutes where it devolves into a b-movie horror after what felt like an elevated story. You could see the twist coming but it didn’t prevent it from being boring. The two leads are great though. 7.5/10

Weapons (2025). Sadly a bit overhyped IMO. The acting and cinematography is great. The built up suspense and nonlinear storytelling is something horror needs more of. However the end of this gets a bit goofy and silly for me to elevate it to the ‘great’ level. 8/10

Malignant (2021). I don't know how this has a positive RT score, but I absolutely hated this. Acting is bad, along with the premise and directing. Its 30 minutes too long and felt like a chore to get through. Maybe it is for some, but not me. 4/10

Heretic (2024). Love a thoughtful psychological horror with a point. A point that I've often pondered over the years (I won't give anything away). Hugh Grant's performance was great, along with the two female leads (Sophie Thatcher is a rising star). 9/10

Don't Move (2024). A creepy premise of a woman trying to escape a serial killer after being injected w/ a paralyzing drug. There are personal struggles here that are interesting with the aforementioned woman's will to live prior to the events of the films that work well. It was a fun ride. 7/10

Blink Twice (2024). A poignant twisted tale that unfolds in a natural way as the veil is lifted on both the women and the viewer. The pacing is great and it delivers a terrific payoff. Acting is spotty at times, but this is a great horror flick. 8.5/10

Day Shift (2022). A dumb horror comedy that doesn’t try and do too much. The action is very good as you get to see Jamie Foxx take down vampires. The story is nothing but the has enough good performances from Foxx and Dave Franco to carry you through it. 7/10

Companion (2025). Perhaps more of a sci-fi thriller than horror, but still quite good. It also felt like an extended Black Mirror episode and that isn’t a bad thing. Great turns from Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid. Would recommend. 8/10

Bring Her Back (2025). This was a fucked up one with a legendary performance from Sally Hawkins. A nice follow up to Talk To Me directors though not quite as good or scary. Makeup and gore were top notch though. 7.5/10

47 Meters Down (2017). Terrifying in the same way as The Shallows and Crawl from the same decade. As someone who finds deep sea terrifying, this legitimately had me holding my breath (lol). The acting is very bad however and doesn't have the same emotional journey as the aforementioned. 6/10

Smile (2022). Very similar vibes to The Ring and It Follows, but does the internalized trauma as the focal point. It is very well done with some legitimate scares/effects without not feeling like a complete retread of the subgenre. I see there is a sequel and I'm looking forward to it. 8.5/10

Friday the 13th (2009). Clearly a homage to the original two films, though not nearly as original as it should be. I also don't know how I feel about a "Running Jason Voorhees". The slow walk & plodding made it more nervewrecking. The writing is bad along with the acting. Gratuitous boobs tho! 5/10

It Comes at Night (2017). The best kind of horror is the one that seems the most plausible to happen. This is psychological at some of its best. Joel Edgerton is a masterful actor and the direction is amazing. The ending will have you reeling. 9/10

Wolf Man (2025). I really don't understand what this movie was trying to say. Its a blend of psychological and traditional horror that goes on 20-30 min too long, sadly. The acting is pretty bad and the film has too many dull moments that I found myself waiting for it to be over. 5/10

Final Destination Bloodlines (2025). Final Destination 1 was an amazing concept and the rest that followed have just been 'alright' or 'meh'. This latest film is in that 'alright' realm. The story is good, deaths fun and the opening scene are worthy of the franchise. 7/10

Trick R Treat (2007). Saw this come fairly recommended but for me it barely worked. It mostly plays as a tongue-in-cheek homage to the horror film genre. Most of it is fairly predictable, though i did enjoy the insane principal bit. 5/10

28 Years Later (2028). I had low expectations, but Danny Boyle & Alex Garland nailed it with this reboot. This one is as much a coming of age story as it is a horror flick. With the passage of time it gets to introduce new ideas and things into this scary infected world. Bring on the sequel. 8.5/10
