Netflix and Kill – HALLOWEEN EDITION
Happy October, spooky friends. With it being the last weekend in October, you’re either in the spooky mood or you’re trying to get there. I’m here to help, but there’s an unfortunate truth: Netflix hasn’t been doing an incredible job of bringing in horror films lately. Hell, they’ve honestly been doing a pretty piss poor […]
Ouija: Origin Of Evil – Movie Review
Back in the hazy year 2014, Stiles White made his directorial debut with Ouija. Reviews were – to put it mildly – not kind.

Expected to open to a $20 million dollar box office, the film fell short of that goal by half, opening below $10 million. Articles a plenty questioned if horror was dead because of the supposed “flop” that was Blair […]

It’s that time again, folks. The August 2016 Horror Block has made its way from wherever the hell it is these things come from (Some say Kansas, others say Canada) all the way to the doorstep of my Haunted Apartment In North Texas. This Block actually found its way to me a bit earlier this […]
Found Footage 3D – Movie Review – HUMANSTEIN FOR DAILY GRINDHOUSE
As some of you may be aware, I recently accepted a contributor position over at DailyGrindhouse.com, “Tough Films For The Rough Crowd”. I’m overjoyed at this opportunity for a number of reasons, chiefly reaching a larger audience than I can on humble Ol’ Humanstein. Don’t despair though, this will have no impact on my Humanstein.com […]
Don’t Breathe – Movie Review
Brutal. Tense. Scary. These are words film critics bandy around quite a bit, especially in the world of genre films. Every horror film released in the year 2016 seems to have been able to find someone who’s particular tastes and cinematic background lead them to call it brutal, tense, and of course, scary. What I’m […]
