Suspiria 2018
In 1977, Italian director, horror film master, and all around mad-cinema genius Dario Argento terrified international audiences with his hauntingly brutal film, Suspiria. The film was dark, oddly psychedelic, and purportedly based on some rather loose but nonetheless true events that a relative of Argento’s mysteriously experienced in Europe. Told through the eye of an American dance student, the chilling film introduced audiences to the Italian brand of horror known as Giallo. Suspiria: Dario Argento’s 1977 Horror Masterpiece Rough in its definition, Giallo is an Italian sub-genre that incorporates horror, detective fiction, gore, supernatural elements, and psychological exploitation so as… Read more »
Nicolas Cage Rages in Mandy
Somewhere along Hollywood’s recent timeline, veteran actor Nicholas Cage appeared to have lost his way. The former Academy Award-winning actor slowed his film roles between 2008 and 2009, right before the IRS began a tax evasion investigation.

The film that is going to do this? Mandy. The Plot of Mandy For the inner circle of horror fans, Mandy is… Read more »
