Review in Brief: Scream (2022)

Posted on January 25, 2022 by Sam Sewell-Peterson

Re-quels (reboot/sequel hybrids) are the flavour of the month in Hollywood and they vary wildly in execution. SCREAM is on the upper end of the scale, with a killer (pun intended) first half and just the right amount of fanservice … Continue reading →

Review in Brief: Werewolves Within (2021)

Posted on July 31, 2021 by Sam Sewell-Peterson

WEREWOLVES WITHIN is an absolute treat for horror-comedy fans, and cements Josh Ruben as a new master of meta scares. Not many horrors would open with a Mr Rogers quote, but it works creepily, atonally well. Believe it or not … Continue reading →
