2021 Film Review: The Little Things2/28/2021 Written by: Kevin Berge  Denzel Washington is in a late career renaissance as an avenger too cool to be emotional. (Image Courtesy of: dnaindia.com) Quick Take: The Little Things disappoints through its waste of a solid premise and talented cast. The leads lack chemistry, and the direction lacks emotion, leading to a lifeless drama that feels twice as long as it actually is.
Written by: Kevin Berge  Throw it away. Throw that doll so far into the abyss that no one will ever see it again. (Image Courtesy of: wallpapercave.com) Quick Take: Annabelle: Creation takes the best elements of the Conjuring Universe and sends them back in time with a contained period piece. It is terrifying, dread-inducing, and ultimately one of the scariest mainstream horror films in recent memory.
2020 Film Review: Promising Young Woman2/21/2021  That pink-and-blue wig is so much that I'm even sure if it's supposed to be a part of the sexy attire or just a statement all its own. (Image Courtesy of: saportareport.com) Quick Take: Promising Young Woman has a clear strong focus that can be hard to watch. While it is a black comedy, it is rarely genuinely funny as much as frightening at every turn. Well acted, well written, and well directed, it is a complete experience that needs to be seen for those that can take the intensity.
Analyzed Film Review: The Conjuring 22/17/2021 Written by: Kevin Berge  Last time, the movie promised the one case that truly horrified Ed and Lorraine. This time, it's the other that really scared them. (Image Courtesy of: wickedhorror.com) Quick Take: The Conjuring 2 is just as terrifying as the first with even more frightening ideas lurking around every corner. While it does take a few unnecessary detours, it lives up to the legacy of the original with unique flair.
Written by: Kevin Berge  You can tell these two are besties because they could not be further apart on that bench. (Image Courtesy of: rogersmovienation.com) Quick Take: The Blackcoat's Daughter is a creeping horror film built around the creeping whisper of evil. With non-linear storytelling and sharp quiet terror, the movie may not be for everyone but makes the most of its unforgettable premise.
