I'd say we're all agreed that dolls can be creepy- as can kids, right?  Well, I think we can also agree that clowns are on the " Things That Shouldn't Be Creepy... But Are " List... Michael was in love with Jada.  Jada was dating a gangsta.  Michael practiced black magic.  The gangsta kills Michael.  Michael's black magic brings a clown doll to life.  Clown doll starts to kill everyone. I'm not entirely sure what approach I should take with this review.  Taking an slightly academic approach (my standard approach) would only give this dung pile of a movie more legitimacy and credibility than it deserves.  Taking a witty approach would only make this excrement filled toilet film seem worthy of being seen for a chuckle.  Taking a "rage quit" approach would only make it seem that this piece of cinematic fecal matter was worth being angry over. It doesn't deserve legitimacy or credibility.  It isn't worth being seen for a chuckle.  It

I love psychological thrillers because, when properly done, they challenge your mind to pay attention, and gather the clues before you and figure out the truth behind what's happening- whether it's deducing who the killer is, revealing why the events are happening... and even learning if what's happening is actually happening at all... Will Atenton and his family move into a house in a quiet suburb, only to become the target of a possible stalker.  Investigating, they learn that their little house was the scene of a horrific murder.  Is the stranger stalking them back to claim more victims?  Soon Will and his wife, Libby, will find not just their lives in danger... but everything they believed to be real... The most basic, spoiler free premise is pretty standard for a psychological/stalker thriller- but is sufficient to base the rest of the plot (twists included) on.  At first, I was thinking that this movie wasn't going to go much further than than basic premise

Horror and comedy have always gone together- which makes it a logical step to animate a horror comedy, right?  Right Dracula is getting lonely running his hotel.  His daughter Mavis decides that he needs a vacation from the hotel... and books a cruise for the whole gang. While there, he meets Ericka, the Captain of the cruise ship... and "zings"... But will the "zing" be mutual... or is Ericka hiding a dark secret that could ultimately mean Dracula's death? For a third entry in an animated franchise, " Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation " isn't bad.  It's not great, though.  I did enjoy the story.  It was sufficiently interesting enough to keep my attention through the bag of cheesy poofs I ate while watching it.  Beyond that, it's a fairly shallow plot. While it has the whole gang, (Frankie, Griffin the Invisible Man, Wayne the Wolfman, and Murray the Mummy), they play very minor roles as it relates to the plot.  It felt li

Once in awhile you come across a comic that takes an idea that could be terrifying, adds copious amounts of humour, gore, and epicness that you just have to smile.  " Grizzly Shark " by Ryan Ottley is that comic for me. On an Earth not too unlike ours, there was a time where land was actually water, and where water was actually land.  Then the two reversed.  Most of life on the planet adapted and evolved into what we know today... except for two... Bears... and sharks.  They got mixed up . The premise of this comic is simple:  Sharks are the apex predator of the forests instead of bears, while bears took the place of sharks in the sea.  I was instantly intrigued by it... and I wasn't disappointed in the story utilized this premise to hilarious affect.  I found myself snickering and chortling at the absurdity of the situations, and the reactions of the characters.  This was horror parody done to perfection. " Grizzly Shark " has characters that are equ

I'm going to keep this review of 2008's " Quarantine " brief. Why?  Because if I didn't keep it brief, I would spend the whole article just cursing. And I try to be strategic with my cursing. This film simply fucking sucked. The story premise was interesting, but standard for the "Rage Zombie" type of film.  Everything that occurred was predictable.  Fucking predictable.  From start to end. Oh- and major fucking spoilers.  It's fucking rabies.  Rabies, people- rabies.  And it takes half the fucking movie for them to fucking figure it out.  What, the fucking vet- someone who fucking deals with animals, can't tell what rabies fucking looks like?  Fuck you, movie.  Just fuck you. Sorry.  This movie brings out the " Mulholland Drive " hate in me. The characters.  The fucking characters.  Just fuck them.  Of the entire cast of about 18 characters, there's only ONE that's likable.  ONE.  The rest?  I cou

Children can be pretty creepy, right?  Right.  Dolls are pretty creepy, right?  Right.  So dolls of children should be super creepy, right?  Maybe... Greta has been hired by the Heelshires to look after their son while they are away.  When she arrives, she learns that Brahms is actually a doll... a doll made to look like their deceased son.  Escaping an abusive relationship, and needing the money, Greta takes the job. Soon, she learns that there's more to Brahms than meets the eye... The premise of this movie really intrigued me.  I wanted to see it.  I was hoping that this would be a great supernatural horror movie that provided spooky tension and unease like " The Others " (2001), " The Changeling  "(1980), and " The Woman in Black " (2012). For the most part, the movie delivered on this promise with some really nice ghostly, "What the fuck?" moments.  Strange noises and whispers, shifting shadows, and the Brahms doll app

You may notice that this particular article is lacking the " From the Corner " pre-fix.  That's because this review of the 1980 film " The Changeling " is a Basement Exclusive!  I have not reviewed this film for " The Corner of Terror ". After the death of his wife and daughter, John Russell moves into an old, isolated mansion in order to work on composing a new piece.  He soon finds himself enveloped in strange sounds, shadows, and spirits- all leading to an explosive revelation about one of the most powerful men in the country... This film, starring George C. Scott is a true horror classic.  It expertly weaves a ghost story that will stay with you even after you've turned all the lights on. The story is fantastic, and exemplifies what a good ghost story should be.  The pacing is slow, but tense as it builds and builds to it's eruptive climax.  It keeps adding bits and pieces of the story at just a fast enough flow to keep you i
