Horror Reviewed

For today’s Film in Review, I’m going to be reviewing Jordan Peele’s second horror film, Us.

Introing the film, we meet a family who is going on a vacation in Santa Cruz to the mom’s childhood home. Upon their arrival they encounter a group of doppelgangers who embark on a night of horror.

For today’s, Film in Review, we’re going to be taking a look at David Yarovesky’s Brightburn.

Today we’re going to be introducing our “Series in Review,” section of the blog. Kicking it off, I’m going to be talking about one of my favorite Netflix shows of 2018, ‘The Haunting of Hill House.’

This netflix original features a family who buys an estate known as Hill House, the most haunted house in America, in efforts to renovate it and flip it. The family consists of the dad, the mom, and their five children. The kids begin to experience their own encounter with a paranormal entity, each adding a layer of horror to the plot.

For today’s “Film in Review,” I’m going to be discussing Ari Aster’s Midsommar.

Midsommar immediately sets itself up as a melodrama with a dark atmosphere. However, by the end of the movie, it turns itself on its head and unravels as a creepy, fairytale of sorts. The premise of the movie is that a group of Americans travel to Sweden for the summer traditions known as “Midsommar,” and unsettling events start to take place upon their arrival.

For today’s “Film in Review,” we’re going to be discussing a movie that still leaves a cold chill down my spine whenever I think about it, and that is Ari Aster’s Hereditary.

Now, I’ve consumed a lot of horror related content in my 22 years on here on this big blue ball of misery. I can say without a fraction of a doubt that Hereditary was the hardest one to digest; and I mean that in the best way possible.
