[Double Feature] The Invisible Man

11/10/2020

David: I have to say guys, and let me just lay this one out with all the gushing that I can. I cannot get enough of Leigh Whannell and the stories that the man tells. Sometimes it’s original tales of horror... READ MORE

Shannon: The Invisible Man was probably one of the last movies to be released in 2020 before the pandemic shut down all movie theaters (I'm still sad about that, but let's be honest, I'm not going... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Bumblebee

11/5/2020

Shannon: When I was little, I was obsessed with the VW bug. Was that typical for all girls? I wouldn't doubt it. I personally though, have always loved the older model bug. The one that starred in Herbie... READ MORE

[Double Feature] The Intruder

10/27/2020

David: When you watch as many horror movies as I do, it’s easy to get sucked into all the different things that a film may be trying to say. For instance, The Intruder can be construed in many ways... READ MORE

Shannon: For me it's strange to see Dennis Quaid in something where he's not the home town hero or good guy. I have to say though, he plays the creepy man fairly well in this movie... READ MORE

[Double Feature] In the Tall Grass

10/14/2020

David: First off, let me apologize for the hiatus. We obviously have lives outside of DFP (shocking, I know), but it’s one of those things that happens when you do something purely for the fun of... READ MORE

Shannon: Okay... first order of business when watching In the Tall Grass... is to NOT watch it while you're pregnant. In case you've noticed out website slowing down a bit, it's mostly because... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Frozen II

9/11/2020

David: In 2013, the world was shook to its very core but the release of an animated movie that quickly blew apart all kinds of animated financial records. I’m talking about, of course... READ MORE

Shannon: The long waited sequel is finally ours for the taking. The same characters are back in a new adventure full of new songs and new friendships. Elsa is determined to find out where her... READ MORE

[Double Feature] X-Men: Dark Phoenix

9/9/2020

8/10/2020

Shannon: It's always interesting the new scary movie ideas that they come up with, particularly ones with killer animals. There are so many movies I've heard about or seen recently with animals... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Child's Play

8/6/2020

David: The original Child’s Play franchise, starring Brad Dourif as the titular Good Guy doll, was a fascinating series that grew in self-awareness the longer it progressed and the more sequels... READ MORE

Shannon: Ah... A remake of a horror classic, what could go wrong? To be honest, not much went wrong in my opinion but I'm sure others (cough cough David) may disagree. See, I didn't really enjoy... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Annabelle Comes Home

8/4/2020

David: If you would have told me that we would have eventually morphed the movie The Conjuring into a set of different series that is now on its 8th film, I honestly wouldn’t believe you. Though... READ MORE

Shannon: I remember liking the other Annabelle movies, but I can't remember if we've reviewed those too. Annabelle Comes Home though, is like a hodge podge of all the other movies with the Warren... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Bad Times at the El Royale

7/31/2020

David: Sometimes when you take a film and begin to twist, the fibers that come apart are actually more interesting than the story itself. This is something that Drew Goddard, writer and director... READ MORE

Shannon: Crime and suspense? Sounds like a good combination of things for me to like it. Bad Times at the El Royale was just alright. Yes it had crime and suspense and some thrills, but to me... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Captain Marvel

7/30/2020

David: Captain Marvel was the MCU’s first woman led superhero film. This is something that should have been made a tent-pole film so that the torch could have been successfully passed to... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Beasts of No Nation

7/28/2020

David: Beasts of No Nation is a film currently available for streaming on Netflix. It details the stories of a young boy named Agu in an unnamed African country (that shares a striking resemblance... READ MORE

Shannon: I hate to say it, but I'm the one that added this to the last. I have no idea why. Maybe I heard things about it from other people, had to be from film twitter because I know none of my friends ... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Alita: Battle Angel

7/23/2020

David: Adopting movies from Manga and comics into motion pictures has always been a bit of a tricky business. Though both are visual mediums, one is largely “live action” while the other is... READ MORE

Shannon: This was an interesting movie to say the least. As for the synopsis, it follows a cyborg who was revived by a scientist (Christoph Waltz), however she can't remember a thing. So the film... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Wonderstruck

7/21/2020

David: Todd Haynes is a cinephile – of that I have no doubt. Watching through his filmography, it’s very easy to see that he misses the bygone areas of years past – most specifically, that specific... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Unbreakable

4/14/2020

Shannon: In January 2018 I went to see the movie Split. I knew what it was about, but I had never heard of this movie Unbreakable until the end scene that cameos Bruce Willis and sets up for the... READ MORE

[Double Feature] Avengers: Endgame

4/9/2020

David: I can’t think of a more ambitious thing than what Marvel did in order to build to this moment in cinematic history. The idea of taking 22 films and giving them an overall cohesive story is an... READ MORE

Shannon: I guess it's a bit late to work on writing a review for this movie, but hey we do a lot of older movies so what's the difference with this one? I made the mistake of seeing the newest... READ MORE

[Double Feature] The Sisters Brothers

4/7/2020

[Double Feature] The Front Runner

3/31/2020

[Double Feature] Feast

3/26/2020

Shannon: This film was one of the movies that was dubbed for our October horror event, but since I had the hectic life of a person getting married, it was one of 2 movies that I just couldn’t get my hands... READ MORE
