Created by the trio of Franck Khalfoun, Alexandre Aja and Grégory Levasseur — who also worked together on the 2006 remake of The Hills Have Eyes — P2 is about working through the holidays, struggling for meaning and losing yourself in your work identity. It’s also about a lone girl trying to survive being kidnapped in […]
This movie is brought to you by our friend Paul Andolina, who created the website Wrestling with Film. He loves Russian and Christmas movies more than anyone I know. This is literally at the center of both of his loves, so I invited him to share it with all of you: As I sit at my […]
Hey — a new Christmas themed horror movie on Netflix! Is it worth watching? Well, that depends. To me, this seemed even more stressful than Home for the Holidays.

This was the sell job: “It’s definitely a front-runner for worst movie ever put the celluloid. There’s just something wrong with the folks behind it.” Well, obviously that […]
Let’s get this out of the way. This is a movie made by maniacs who have nothing less than the goal of decimating your sanity. View this movie at your own peril. René Cardona — who also brought us La Momia Azteca contra el Robot Humano — originally crafted this movie, which was remixed for […]

A year since Harry Lime (Joe Pesci, Casino) and Marv Merchants (Daniel Stern, the voice of Kevin from The Wonder Years) tried to rob his home and they went to jail. And a year since Kevin’s parents, Kate (Catherine O’Hara, Best in […]
