Spoiler-Free Review of “PRIMATE” in Theaters: Bonkers & Bananas in the Best Possible Way!

“Something’s wrong with Ben…”

PRIMATE released in theaters on January 9th 2026. The horror film stars Johnny Sequoyah, Victoria Wyant, Jessica Alexander, Gia Hunter, and Troy Kotsur. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty minutes.

Lucy travels to her home in Hawaii with her friends for their summer vacation, but after their pet chimpanzee gets infected with rabies, they are forced to work together to survive before he kills them all one by one.

Here is the trailer:

PRIMATE is a wild ride from start to finish featuring some outrageous and gruesome moments. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Lots of well-placed gore.

In a lot of ways, this movie felt like a solid slasher to me. Sure, the killer was a chimp, but it still essentially had that slasher feel to it, keeping me on the edge of my seat. The gore was really over-the-top and disturbing, which worked well here. This movie really went for it without holding back and I think it paid off ultimately.

Fast watch with little fluff.

This movie was just about 90 minutes, which is the perfect length for slasher films in my opinion. There was minimal set-up and the majority of the movie focused on the girls trying to escape, which made this such an entertaining popcorn watch. Sure, it was silly at times, but the horror genre is off to a promising start for 2026 with this entry. More please!

PS: that house in Hawaii was to die for…literally!

The Cons:

Minimal investment in the characters.

Other than Lucy, I was not really too impressed with the other characters here and I didn’t care who lived or died. I guess that doesn’t always matter in a slasher film like this where you can ultimately root for the killer, but it seemed like we glossed over a few moments that could have made me invest a little more here in what happened to everyone.

I’m also a huge animal lover so while this movie was silly and fun, I’m never really a fan of anything bad happening to animals so there’s that (Yes, I get that this was a guy dressed in a suit, but still the concept bothered me).

I do have to point out that there was a puppy in the movie theater near the front row. I hope she wasn’t too traumatized by all of this!

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

PRIMATE is a solid slasher filled to the brim with extreme gore and mindless fun. This was a blast to watch in the movie theater!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Somewhere Quiet” on Demand: An Eerie and Effective Slow Burn

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Sometimes the nightmares can feel really real…”

Somewhere Quiet released on demand on February 2nd 2024. The horror mystery film stars Jennifer Kim, Marin Ireland, and Kentucker Audley. It runs for approximately an hour and forty-two minutes.

After surviving a kidnapping, a woman tries to cope with what happened to her by traveling to her husband’s family home in the middle of nowhere, but her grip on reality begins to deteriorate as she tries to return to normal, causing her to question everything and everyone surrounding her.

Here is the trailer:

Somewhere Quiet is not your average slow burn film, creating a true sense of confusion for both the characters and the audience, as we try to piece together what is transpiring on screen, making this complicated, but also intriguing. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Effectively creates a creepy and unsettling tone from start to finish.

The setting and score complimented this film so well. There was such an eerie vibe going on and it continued to build and build with great suspense. This film was honestly a complete mindf*ck. It was really out there and strange, but it kept my attention and brought me into everything in an unconventional way.

Marin Ireland and Jennifer Kim are beyond brilliant!

Wow, Marin Ireland nailed the extra creepy vibe here. She gave such a twisted performance and had my skin crawling several times just from some of her expressions. She was bloody fantastic!!! Jennifer Kim was really strong as our lead as well and I loved the dynamic between them. This movie was so weird and these elevated performances heightened this that much more, making this such a compelling watch.

The Cons:

A lot of questions by the time I got to the end…

This was good and bad for me. I like when a movie resonates with me well after it’s over, but there were so many missing pieces here that were never explained. In a way, that mirrors what our main character was going through so I get the intention, but I did need a little bit more here.

If slow burns are not your jam, this may not be for you. The pacing is sluggish for a long time, but it still manages to create this sense of dread without doing much, which says a lot, so I wouldn’t say this was a major con.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

Somewhere Quiet is trippy and unsettling with two note-worthy performances!

This film wasn’t what I thought it would be, but it stuck with me well after I finished it.

If you enjoy films like Mother, May I? and The Night House, this one is right up your alley.

A VACATION TO DIE FOR…

When sisters, Nina and Gemma are vacationing in Hawaii with their friends, they get invited to an exclusive party on a private island that seems too good to be true. There’s only one rule…they can’t miss their ferry at midnight or they’ll have to wait until morning to leave the island. Only they didn’t realize that breaking this rule meant they would be hunted down on the island one by one.

Who will make it off the island alive?

I hope you enjoy my new island thriller!

Spoiler-Free Review of “The Sacrifice Game” on Shudder: Packed with Plenty of Welcomed Twists

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Christmas Killers strike again…”

The Sacrifice Game released on Shudder on December 8th 2023. The horror film stars Olivia Scott Welch, Mena Massoud, Chloe Levine, Madison Baines, and Georgia Acken. It runs for approximately an hour and forty minutes.

Set in the 1970’s, two boarding school students are stuck there for Christmas, but when a cult of vicious killers show up at their door looking to summon a demon, they must figure out a way to survive.

Here is the trailer:

The Sacrifice Game may seem like your average home invasion thriller at first glance, but it provides the audience with plenty of deadly twists and turns to keep us invested. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

The time period works to its advantage.

Similar to X, I thought that this film successfully channeled the 1970’s vibe it was going for. From the music, to the hair, to the clothes, it nailed it. A lot of films try to slap on a time period to make themselves stand out, but I thought that The Sacrifice Game truly embodied this era effortlessly. The muted lighting worked well too and I love how this film was shot.

Entertaining villains.

The opening scene of this film was jaw-dropping in a good way. It didn’t hold anything back and let loose with lots of blood and gore to reel horror fans in. As the film progressed, I found myself particularly drawn to the villains. They were actually a lot of fun and they lightened up some of the heavy content.

The actresses playing the two school girls did a great job with what they were given as well and showed off their range.

I also really liked that this film wasn’t afraid to break out of the standard home invasion genre and hit us with plenty of twists and turns, making this a much more unique watch. While not all of the reveals landed for me, I appreciated the effort here.

The Cons:

Loses its way in the middle…

This film featured a strong opening and ending, but the pacing suffered a lot in the middle of the film. This movie wasn’t long, but certain parts felt really dragged out for me and I think it could have benefited from being a touch shorter.

Some of the dialogue was also pretty dull and uninspiring, but the plot made up for that. This film was good, but it could have been truly exceptional if a few minor tweaks had been made.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

The Sacrifice Game successfully carves its way into the holiday horror genre, keeping us guessing until the very end.

While this film was far from perfect, I found it to be really entertaining and I hope to see Fear Street’s Olivia Scott Welch in more horror entries soon because she rocked this role and then some!

I hope you enjoyed the review and please feel free to share your thoughts on The Sacrifice Game in the comments section!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Five Nights at Freddy’s” on Peacock: Welcome Back to Horror, Matthew Lillard!

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“I have a job for you…”

Five Nights at Freddy’s released in theaters and on Peacock on October 27th 2023. Based on the popular video game, the horror film stars Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio, and Matthew Lillard. The film runs for an hour and forty-nine minutes.

A security guard with a troubled past takes a job at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria, quickly learning that the performing animatronics may have a few dangerous tricks up their sleeves.

Here is the trailer:

Five Nights at Freddy’s has some fun moments for fans of the video game, but it ultimately takes itself too seriously instead of indulging in some needed camp. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

All hail, Matthew Lillard!

It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of Matthew Lillard and that Stu Macher from Scream is one of my all-time favorite horror characters. I was thrilled to see him in this one and he was the main reason why I tuned in. He delivered his role perfectly. I hope he appears in some more horror films soon because he’s always a blast to watch.

Josh Hutcherson from The Hunger Games did a solid job as well with what he was given and I truly believed the bond between his character and his little sister, which helped me invest in this film a little bit more.

Impressive design on the animatronics.

I was worried that they would seem outrageous and really silly, but I was personally impressed by the animatronics coming to life on screen.

I also thought that this film was a nice step up from kids horror. Pre-teens will probably love certain parts of this film and I think that it’s a fun introduction to the horror genre. I’d recommend kids under twelve watching it with supervision, however.

The Cons:

Too much set-up…

I could have personally done without the repetitive flashbacks and dragged out set-up in the beginning. This film wasn’t scary at all and it tried to be like too many other films. It would have benefited from some campy, ridiculous fun, which would have been pure B movie magic gold, but this route was very forgettable.

Willy’s Wonderland did a much better job of this…

The pacing was also really sluggish at times and the dialogue was uninspiring. I’d say that wouldn’t really matter if we had some inventive kills in the mix or some dry humor, but everything was really watered down.

So am I in or out?

I’m 50/50 on this one…

Five Nights at Freddy’s takes a safe and mostly bland route instead of just having fun with this material. There were some entertaining moments sprinkled into the mix, but I’m not sure that I would watch this again.

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Five Nights at Freddy’s in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Founders Day”: A Fun Political Slasher

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Things are really heating up in the race for Mayor…”

Founders Day released back in August 2023 at London Fright Fest and will be playing at Toronto After Dark on October 20th 2023. The slasher horror film stars Naomi Grace, Devin Druid, Amy Hargreaves, Catherine Curtin, and William Russ. It runs for approximately an hour and forty-five minutes.

A small town is plagued by a series of brutal killings leading up to a cutthroat mayoral election.

Founders Day has a fun premise and a few twists worth sticking around for. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Fun idea for a slasher film.

We have plenty of horror entries for Halloween and Christmas, but not too many November/Fall ones. With the film, Thanksgiving coming out soon and now with Founders Day, we have some some solid slasher entries for the season to indulge in, which is a very good thing!

This film is brought to us by the same creator of She Came from the Woods and I thought it had a similar vibe to that film. It had some dry humor mixed in, which worked well for the most part, and some stand-out characters. Some of the small town discussions even reminded me of Jaws in a playful way, which worked to the film’s advantage.

Catherine Curtin stole the movie for me and was as fantastic as ever and I thought our lead did a decent job as well.

Inventive kills!

I actually really enjoyed some of the kills in this one and thought they were well done. I would have liked a touch more gore and some extended chase scenes, but I’m all for some slasher fun just in time for Fall.

The Cons:

The fluff in-between slowed down the pacing.

Overall, I thought the runtime for this film was fine, but I could have done without some of the unnecessary conversations between certain characters. They felt a little filler. The killings were a lot of fun and I didn’t think this film needed to be weighed down by anything else. It found its groove again by the time it reached the climax, however.

So am I in or out?

I’m in about 75 percent…

If you’re looking for a fun B-movie slasher film with an inventive premise and some killer twists, there’s plenty to enjoy with this one.

I think horror fans will appreciate this one for sure.

Special thanks to Mainframe Pictures for this press screening.

Spoiler-Free Review of “Saw X” in Theaters: A Solid Entry to the Franchise

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“I’d like to play a game…”

Saw X released in theaters on September 29th 2023. The tenth film of the Saw franchise stars Tobin Bell, Shawnee Smith, Synnøve Macody Lund, Renata Vaca, and Steven Brand. It runs for approximately an hour and fifty-eight minutes.

Taking place between the events of Saw and Saw II, John Kramer travels to Mexico to undergo experimental treatment, hoping to cure his cancer once and for all, but once he discovers that everything is a scam, he turns the tables on these con artists to teach them an important lesson about life and death.

Here is the trailer:

Saw X invites us back into the dangerous mind of Jigsaw with extreme gore and plenty of twists and turns to keep us guessing up until the end. Does the tenth film do the franchise justice? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Images courtesy of Lionsgate

John Kramer and Amanda are back!

I’m a huge fan of the Saw franchise. I have very fond memories of waiting on lines out the door at the movie theater, anxiously waiting to watch each of these films on the big screen. The earlier films are the best of the franchise so I had high hopes when I learned that both John Kramer and Amanda would be featured in this entry and they delivered and then some!

It was very smart to have this film take place between Saw and Saw II, giving the audience the chance to gain back some nostalgia after some of the later films failed to deliver.

Images courtesy of Lionsgate

More gruesome than ever!

The games in this entry were beyond extreme. My skin was crawling during several moments. This film did not hold back with the blood and gore, reminding us that the Saw franchise knows how to make its audience squirm in the best way possible.

The Cons:

Images courtesy of Lionsgate

Predictable at times…

I always enjoy the twists in Saw and this one had plenty, but a few of them I saw coming a mile away. This wasn’t necessarily a major con, but I guess I wanted a little bit more in this department.

Make sure you stick around for the end credit scene though!

So am I in or out?

Images courtesy of Lionsgate

I’m in!!!

Twisted and gory with a solid story that brought us back to the beginning in a clever way!

While not my favorite film of the franchise, I think it put forth a valiant effort and reminded me why I fell in love with these films in the first place.

Spoiler-Free Review of “American Horror Story: Delicate” Premiere on FX: Off to a Creepy Start!

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

“It’s gonna happen this time…”

American Horror Story season 12 has arrived! The new season premiered on September 20th 2023 with its first episode on FX (next day on Hulu). Episodes will air weekly. The season will feature 10 episodes in total. The first five episodes will be devoted to Part one (Delicate) and then the second half of the season will air at a later time with another five episodes.

Each episode runs for approximately 42-48 minutes. AHS: Delicate stars Emma Roberts, Kim Kardashian, and Cara Delevingne.

Anna has been trying to have a baby for quite some time after several failed attempts at IVF, but her luck may be turning around with the newest trial. Only it leads to some dark and disturbing hallucinations, making us wonder what she may be actually carrying inside of her.

Here is the trailer:

American Horror Story: Delicate has a solid cast and a disturbing premise with lots of potential. Is it worth a watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Great cast!

I was thrilled to find out that Emma Roberts was starring in this season. She’s no stranger to the AHS series and I’m confident that she will deliver as the leading lady. I wasn’t initially sure how I felt about Kim Kardashian starring in this, but so far she’s doing a decent job and I’m excited to see her do more. I’m sure we’ll see some more familiar faces along the way from the AHS family, which is always lots of fun.

Super creepy premise.

I’ve seen other horror films that center around the urgency of getting pregnant and they have managed to freak me out to new levels. I’m hoping that this series can do so and more. So far there are a lot of weird factors going on and I’m anxious to see everything unfold. It’s off to a great start though!

The Cons:

Can it stick the landing?

I’ve seen every season of AHS and many of them start off in such a promising way, but then they go completely off the rails in the end. I’m hoping that with five episodes, AHS: Delicate can deliver a satisfying ending, but we’ll have to stick around to find out.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!

AHS: Delicate is off to a freaky start with lots of potential.

I can’t wait to watch more!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Cobweb” in Theaters: Creepy AF!

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“I heard something…”

Cobweb released in select theaters on July 21st 2023. The horror film stars Lizzy Caplan, Antony Starr, Cleopatra Coleman, and Woody Norman. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty minutes.

Peter begins to hear something inside his bedroom wall, but his parents insist that it is only in his imagination. Peter is determined to find out what lies beyond the wall, unlocking dangerous secrets in the process.

Here is the trailer:

Cobweb weaves together an unsettling story filled with plenty of disturbing and hair-raising moments. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Unsettling from start to finish…

This movie didn’t waste any time with unnecessary fluff or set-up. We got right into the creepy stuff and I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. This film was very effective at creating an eerie tone and even some of the conversations and small moments felt very unnerving, adding to the overall vibe.

In a lot of ways, this film sort of reminded me of a mix of The Black Phone and Barbarian. It explored tangible fears while keeping the audience guessing about where the real threat was.

Insane final act!

I already thought this movie was freaky enough, but then we got to the final act and my jaw dropped. It was crazy in the best way possible. I haven’t been this excited about a reveal in a horror movie in a long time. It grabbed hold of the audience and never let go, effectively giving me some new nightmares in the process!

Wow…

The Cons:

The characters make some really bad decisions…

Look, I get it. We wouldn’t have a movie if they didn’t, but I was almost yelling at the screen at some points. I just don’t get it when characters decide to investigate things on their own without calling anyone…

It’s not realistic, but I’ll leave this alone because the movie was so fantastic.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

A terrifying and captivating watch that will stick with you long after it’s over!

This movie was such a fantastic surprise and an absolute must see watch for horror fans!

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Cobweb in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “There’s Something Wrong with the Children” on Prime: Creepy and Strange…

**This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

“Where did the kids go?”

There’s Something Wrong with the Children originally released on MGM+ back in March 2023, but is now available to stream on Prime Video as of June 15th 2023. The horror film stars Alisha Wainwright, Zach Gilford, Carlos Santos, and Amanda Crew. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty-two minutes.

Two couples spend a weekend at a remote cabin in the woods, but when they discover an abandoned fort in the middle of nowhere, the kids start behaving strangely.

Here is the trailer:

There’s Something Wrong with the Children features some genuinely creepy and twisted moments, but is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Eerie and weird…

I’ve seen my fair share of movies featuring creepy kids and I thought these two did a decent job. The concept to me was more disturbing than the actual acts done by the kids, but the overall vibe of this film was spine-chilling in an entertaining way.

Solid performances.

There were some familiar faces in this one and I thought everyone did a decent enough job with what they were given. Stand-out performance goes to Alisha Wainwright as Margaret. She delivered and held my attention even when things started to get really really weird…

The Cons:

The adults don’t act in a realistic way at times…

I was scratching my head a little here because there were so many times that the adults acted completely clueless. If I thought someone’s kid was missing, I would be a little bit more concerned and yet these characters just went through the motions as if everything was normal for way too long…

The film had an interesting concept worth exploring, but it didn’t really follow through with it. The ending just left me with a lot of questions and while I think it successfully created a disturbing tone, it just didn’t do enough to stick the landing for me personally. There’s still plenty to enjoy along the way, however.

So am I in or out?

I’m in about 75 percent…

There’s Something Wrong with the Children brings us a new group of creepy kids to have nightmares about, but it could have done a lot more to stand out in this genre.

Either way, this was a mildly entertaining watch if you’re a horror fan.

Spoiler-Free Review of “Fear” (2023) on Demand: Your greatest fear is…

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Fear is very real…”

Fear is a horror film that released on April 25th 2023 on demand. The film had a limited theatrical release back in January 2023. It stars Joseph Sikora, Annie Ilonzeh, Ruby Modine, and T.I. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty-five minutes.

A weekend getaway during the pandemic turns deadly when a group of friends reveal their greatest fears to one another.

Here is the trailer:

Fear has a creepy concept and a decent enough cast, but does it do enough to earn a watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Images courtesy of Hidden Empire Film Group

Solid cast.

Even though this film clearly had a lower budget, it actually had a recognizable cast that I was pretty excited about. The acting was solid enough and I would like to see some of these actors in more horror films in the future.

Some interesting ideas…

Sure, the fears coming to life concept has been done numerous times before, but I like it and I was hopeful that it would translate well in this film. I liked the setting for the film and the story behind it. I think this could have been explored more, but I was drawn in enough to keep watching.

The Cons:

Lacking in so many ways…

This was really frustrating because I really wanted to like this movie. I’ve seen too many horror films set during the pandemic and this one probably should have been released around that time if it wanted to make more of an impact.

The scares were really watered down and silly for the most part. I think that things improved by the time I got toward the end, but I was struggling with this for the majority of the film.

The characters were dull and uninspiring, which was also disappointing…especially since we got a good cast to work with. I honestly didn’t care about what happened to them and it was so obvious who would make it out alive, which made me care even less…

Also, we had a few interesting sub-plots going on and the film basically just abandoned them. I’m not sure why because I thought that these stories were more interesting than the rest of the film.

So am I in or out?

Unfortunately I’m out on this one…

This movie was a watered down version of films I have seen before. It squashed its potential by taking a predictable approach that didn’t have a satisfying conclusion.
