Insidious

Written by Jeff Sparks "While I find Wan overrated, he surely isn’t talentless. There’s one scene where Renai is hunting around her house after she spots a ghost lurking down the hall. When she turns the corner there’s an open … Continue reading.

The Lost King

Written by Jeff Sparks "The plot of the film may be about the finding of a King, but to me, “The Lost King” is about the power of corporations in our society. Even though Philippa has gotten the credit she … Continue reading.

Jethica

Written by Jeff Sparks "Although it sounds like a horror movie, the film is actually more like a satire with black comedy and a focus on themes of loneliness and desperation for connection. The short runtime allows for some sharp … Continue reading.

Waco

Written by Jeff Sparks "Horrifying images of mothers and their children suffocating leave a lasting feeling of hopelessness long after the episode ends, but maybe that’s the point that directors Dowdie and Gordon are going for. No matter your stance..."… Continue reading.
