Skinamarink Review - Is it worth watching?

Image
Walking into Kyle Edward Ball's latest horror flick "Skinamarink" is like taking a trip down the rabbit hole. It's a twisted, surreal experience that leaves you feeling both disorientated and disturbingly mesmerised. If you're a fan of horror, you'll relish the opportunity to get lost in its strange, unsettling visual language - and if you're not, well, this movie will change your mind. But let's not beat around the bush here - "Skinamarink" is not for the faint of heart. It's a movie that demands your attention and a working pair of eyes to take in all the madness. Ball's background in filming user-submitted nightmares gives him a unique perspective on what truly terrifies us, and he's not afraid to push the limits of traditional horror storytelling. This is a movie that wants you to experience it, not interpret it. The film follows two children who wake up in the middle of the night to find their father is missing and all the wi

Jurassic World: Dumpster Fire (Dominion is bad)

Image
As a movie critic, I have seen my fair share of mediocre films, but Jurassic World: Dominion takes the cake for being one of the most underwhelming films of the year. The third installment of the Jurassic World trilogy and the sixth of the Jurassic Park franchise promised an epic conclusion to the saga but failed to deliver on every front. From the get-go, it was clear that this film was going to be a disaster. Jurassic World: Dominion begins with a fascinating idea of dinosaurs invading the world as an invasive species. However, instead of taking this concept and running with it, the movie decides to go with a safer route by keeping the dinosaurs confined to a conveniently contained park. This is just the first of many disappointments in the film. One of the most significant problems with Jurassic World: Dominion is its inability to live up to its own hype. The film was marketed as a grand finale to the Jurassic World trilogy, and fans were promised huge developments and a satisfyin

Horror Movie Sequels That Went to Space

Image
Horror movie sequels are always a hit and most horror movie fans are looking for the next great scare. But what happens when horror movie villains go to space? Here are 5 horror movie villains that went to space. Some were successful, while others were not so much. 1. The Leprechaun Leprechaun 4: In Space is the sleeper of the Leprechaun horror movie series. Yes, it's set in space, but that's exactly what makes it so mind-numbingly great. Leprechaun 4 is a perfect example of how to take a totally ridiculous premise and turn it into something really "special." The movie is chock-full of practical effects, creative kills, and Leprechaun quotes that will have you rolling on the floor. If you're a fan of Leprechaun movies or horror movies in general, Leprechaun 4: In Space is a must-watch. 2. Pinhead Hellraiser: Bloodline is a fascinating continuation of the series that also serves as a prequel. The story spans three different time periods: the 1700s, the 1990s, and
