In a Violent Nature: An Evolution of the Slasher

In a Violent Nature is a massive leap in the right direction for the slasher genre. In a time where neo-slashers such as It Follows, Bodies Bodies Bodies, and Green Room reign supreme, pushing the slasher forward by means of genre-melding and modern social commentary, In a Violent Nature brings the genre back to its roots. The film boils the slasher to its truest essence, while still offering a post-modern twist, breathing a new life into the genre unseen since 2011's The Cabin in the Woods. The

Dude Bro Party Massacre III: The First, Last, and Only Chapter

Dude Bro Party Massacre III is the pinnacle of modern horror-comedy — and don’t worry, you won’t need to watch Dude Bro Party Massacre 1 or 2 to understand why, because they don’t exist. Dude Bro Party Massacre III is both an absurd parody and genuine love letter to campy old-school slasher movies with ridiculous titles and too many sequels. Similar to the framing device of Garth Marenghi's Dark Place, Dude Bro is presented as a “lost 80’s slasher” banned by Reagan, of which the only surviving c

Maxine's Divine Intervention

Maxine Minx wants to be famous. Who can relate? Through three movies (X, Pearl, MaXXXine), we watch Maxine's quest to reach her goal, and we witness events from before she was born that would lead this starry-eyed dreamer to commit murder for the first (but not last!) time. As an avid A24 fan, I jumped out of my skin when I saw this new Peliplat writing challenge. Favourite on-screen killer? Of course, it's Pearl, I thought. That was until I rewatched the trilogy and realized that, no no no, it'

Lucas Friesen: Interesting article. I loved this trilogy, and I'm still not over the fact that Mia Goth played both Maxine and Pearl in X. That makeup must've taken foreverrrr

Terrifier 3: Santa’s Naughty List Just Got Longer - Art the Clown Joins Horror’s Hall of Fame

The Grinch is somewhere clutching his pearls, because Christmas got its most unwelcome visitor yet. Terrifier 3, Damien Leone's latest entry in the indie slasher franchise, takes Art the Clown—a mime with a knack for destruction—and catapults him straight into the ranks of iconic horror villains like Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, and Michael Myers. Except, unlike his slasher siblings, Art doesn’t just kill—he performs. And we, the audience, are his captivated victims. His diabolical, twisted a
