Flowers in the Attic is a movie prior I had heard of but never had much desire to see, and while the film had its problems, but the performances by the cast, particularly Louise Fletcher, were impressive.

Berserker Blu-ray Review
Leave it to Vinegar Syndrome to dredge up a movie like Berserker but there is something charming about this D-movie, yes it’s a tad dull at times and a weird mix of Nordic lore and 1980s slasher, but I found it fairly entertaining for what it is.
The Big Bang Theory: The Complete Series Blu-ray Review
The Big Bang Theory never was a favorite sitcom for me but seemed to have a consistent 12 season run thanks in large part to the (mostly) fun ensemble cast.

Satanic Panic Blu-ray Review
Satanic Panic certainly has the feel of the horror-comedies of the 1970s and while there are some out-there, even insane, but there were times it slowed down a bit too much, though the performances by Hayley Griffith, Ruby Modine and Rebecca Romijn were great.
Two Evil Eyes: 3-Disc Limited Edition Blu-ray Review
Two Evil Eyes puts together two of the most prominent horror directors, George Romero and Dario Argento and while the movie is far from perfect, and I did have a preference for Romero’s The Facts in the Case of Mr. Valdermar, but The Black Cat had its moments as well.

The Angry Birds Movie 2 Blu-ray Review
The Angry Birds Movie 2 is a pointless but ultimately harmless sequel that the kids will enjoy and adults with kids can watch with them and not want to gauge their eyes out and the humor itself is on the obvious plain but fine.
Saf3 2: Under Pressure DVD Review
Dating Game Killer was Investigation Discovery’s attempt into the made-for-TV route, perhaps seeing the success its sister company, Lifetime, were doing.
Veronica Mars: The Complete First Season (2019) Blu-ray Review
I never really watched the original run of Veronica Mars outside of a clip here and there, so going in I didn’t really have any warm memories though I know some avid fans didn’t care for this revival but for me, I found it passably entertaining.

Ringu 0 Blu-ray Review
Ringu 0 is actually a well done prequel that gives life to the Sadako character and gives a pretty good reason for enacting a curse on others later, although still not entirely sure how it gets caught on a VHS tape…
Ringu 2 Blu-ray Review
Ringu 2 is an inferior sequel but still has its moments and the atmosphere stayed relatively the same while the story did feel a little more convoluted, even confusing.
Ringu Blu-ray Review
Ringu is a wonderfully atmospheric supernatural horror film that I wonder if anyone used to modern horror has the patience to sit through as most of the movie has two characters doing research instead of an evil girl cursing victims.
Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark Blu-ray Review
Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark is probably the rare TV movie that actually wasn’t half bad, if not also on the cheesy side, but the atmosphere was well done under John Newland’s direction and a fine performance from Kim Darby.

Strange But True Blu-ray Review
Strange But True is a finely acted drama and sufficiently directed film, but it’s also rather dull and includes a twist that seems straight out of a Lifetime Movie.
3 From Hell Blu-ray Review
3 From Hell is the latest from Rob Zombie and personally (though didn’t wholly mind his Halloween remake), I’m not the biggest fan of his, though certainly acknowledge he does have a unique style to his movies.
Universal Soldier 4K Ultra HD
Universal Soldier is a flawed film, even a little amateurish in some respects especially with the direction by Emmerich, but still a fun enough flick pairing up Van Damme and Lundgren.
