To continue list week, next up is my top 10 favorite films that were released in 2021! Some truly amazing films released last year, so I’m excited to share my favorites with everyone. These will be listed from worst to best. 10. No Sudden Move (Dir. Steven Soderbergh) 87/100 I am not a big fan…

It’s the beginning of 2022 as well as list time to recap 2021! This list is my least favorite movies I watched in 2021, not limited to those that just came out last year. All of the movies on this list are from best to worst. 10. Venom (2018) 78/100 I want to preface this…

2021 was hoping to be a fresh start for the film industry after the terrible year 2020 was, putting a pause on most non-essential businesses. Many studios were forced to release films that would have otherwise been on the backburner or in stasis, putting priority on more mass-market films. However, we still managed to receive…

WRITING (Brad Anderson/Stephen Gevedon): This film has a great start, giving us a perspective not often told. Seeing a cleanup crew as victim to a paranormal event is interesting, and nice to see.

WRITING (John A. Russo/George A. Romero): Although watching this film today, it comes off as a bit campy, the straight-forwardness of the story is very nice. It jumps us right into the zombie action without wasting time with pointless character introductions or boring exposition. Exposition is given to us over a radio and various TV…

WRITING (Leigh Whannell): The start of this film is fantastic. It’s very ominous and eases us into the horror. You just have the one creepy looking guy who seems to be after the baby. But then it seemed that they completely abandoned that storyline and went for a “bigger” scary storyline featuring a demon. The…
