The Changing Of Ben Moore
All the worst first-person shooter "found footage" horror cliches, wrapped around a nonsensical story about a man who whose face digitally distorts and he starts killing people when he sleepwalks,…

The Changing Of Ben Moore
Tall Men
A young man who has just declared bankruptcy receives a mysterious charge card and buys a car, and becomes subject to usurious terms he can't afford. Mysterious threating individuals begin…
Expiry
British near-future dystopian sci-fi romance. A couple in a society where relationships are tightly regulated by electronic bracelets that control whether they can touch each other or not is informed…
Caveat
This was a good one, could be a spooky low-key modern gothic horror classic. Effectively creepy and atmospheric all the way through in the best manner of well-done horror. A…
Holistay
An AirBnB in San Diego is accidentally double-booked by an Irish couple and a couple from New York who are actually criminals on the run. Billed as a supernatural thriller,…
The God Inside My Ear
Painfully indie, poorly acted movie that I bet was filmed in Brooklyn. A girl... I don't know. She bleeds from the ears, she goes on blind dates with the worst…
Et tu
What starts out as a really excellent pitch-black comedy about a production of "Julius Caesar" gone murderously wrong loses the thread about halfway through. For the first half it was…
The Playground
Amateurish, zero-budget attempt at a thriller. I can't even really follow the plot, this guy gets broken out of jail, now he owes someone some money, this little girl is…
Let’s Dream
Everybody ... stares ... looking ... concerned. And ... talks ... very ... slowly. What ... are ... they ... saying? I ... don't ... know ... because ... this…
The Cobbler’s Wife
This feels like a pilot episode of an anthology sci-fi show that wasn't picked up, and at 1 hr 1 minute long, it probably is. A lonely shoemaker builds a…
After She Wakes
Actually not bad supernatural thriller about woman who experiences night terrors, and possibly a visit from a demon, after accidentally killing her infant son in a car accident. Not great…
Superterranean
One of the most boring "thrillers" I've ever seen. An injured climber in Scotland wakes up in a mountain shelter. He tends to his injuries, and in a few minutes…
The Human Hibernation
This is sure to be a polarizing film. More a montage than a story, with plenty of very long, unhurried (and beautifully shot) nature shots, this film depicts a version…
Empathy, Inc.
Sometimes I stumble onto a treat. A company invents VR technology to allow rich people to experience life from the viewpoint of someone more disadvantages. To say more about the…
Among Us
Not absolutely terrible haunted house movie. Couple recovering from the death of their son is haunted by... it's not clear, but something. Also, seems to be set in basically a…
Obsidian (2020)
Patients at a medical clinic trial an experimental drug that cures their permanent injuries... at first. Sub-USA-Up-All-Nite bottom-of-the-barrel zero-budget amateur-made flick turns out to be, weirdly, not a 100% terrible…
New Order (2012)
Scientist pandemic something something. 8 minutes of the most egregious "found footage" cliches were enough to get me to turn it off.
In April
This is one of the weirdest movies I've ever seen... to a point. This movie about a suicidal man driving around in a car looking for an opportunity to kill…
Indiscretions
This "thriller" is in every way like a porn flick without any sex. These people are obviously not actors, and are as stiff as if they're reading lines off cue…
Dimland
Truly strange—this is a very talky, amateurish, artsy and extremely pretentious zero-budget indie flick with little plot, dislikeable characters and not much acting to speak of... and yet, somehow, it…
Harbinger Down
"Alien" in a boat. Vaguely watchable sci-fi/horror action adventure, if derivative. Stars Lance Henriksen as the Captain. He is the last character to die, meaning this may be a horror…
Katernica
A hopelessly pretentious amateur production apparently about an actress wanting to stage a cursed one-act play—I got that by looking it up online, because I sure couldn't tell from watching…
From Dust
Strange. This is a bottom-of-the-barrel, amateur, zero-budget, home-movie level attempt at sci-fi, as a couple of non-actors playing "scientists" examine ancient artifacts found Antarctica, which turn out to release something…
Goodfellas
Funny enough, tonight I filled in a bunch of reviews long-time favorites I'd never posted, and as soon as I was done, what does Tubi serve up, but the best…
A Bronx Tale
This movie about a young man's coming of age in the mafia-controlled Bronx in the 60s, set against the backdrop of the growing civil rights movement, has always been a…
Grace
Understated, character-based horror like they used to make in the 1970s, although with a fair share of visceral gore along the way, for sure. A mother carries a miscarried baby…
Burden Of Dreams
Les Blank's truly memorable documentary about the making of Werner Herzog's excellent "Fitzcarraldo", a historical adventure drama about an early-20th-century entrepreneur seeking access to rubber trees in the Andes who…
Hearts Of Darkess
For the Apocalypse Now fan: the "making of" documentary about the incredibly chaotic process that somehow yielded that masterpiece. And the documentary is nearly as powerful as the film. It's…
Apocalypse Now
This is a placeholder, just put here because no way am I going to let a list of favorite movies go on any longer with Apocalypse Now being mentioned on…
Blue Velvet
One more favorite I realized I didn't have something posted for. I think some of these big favorites, I've seen so many times, I don't even watch them anymore, hence…
