Mārama (2025) 100% 4/5 EDIT “While I enjoyed all of it, I absolutely adored that final act. It’s both heartbreaking and deliciously powerful!” – Heaven of Horror Apr 17, 2026 Full Review Hive (2026) 2/5 EDIT “...based on a short film by the same filmmaker. It doesn’t work very well, which is a shame. The actors deliver good portrayals, and the special effects are good, but the story is too weak. ” – Heaven of Horror Apr 17, 2026 Full Review Lee Cronin's The Mummy (2026) 45% 4/5 EDIT “You have never seen it quite like this before. From the violently grotesque special effects that took my breath away to the sound design that made my skin crawl, this horror movie assaults all senses. And I loved it.” – Heaven of Horror Apr 16, 2026 Full Review Oddities (2026) 3/5 EDIT “...gets fairly wild, but in ways that fit the plot. The core cast is small, but they work perfectly. When I thought I knew where the story was headed, I was never quite right. And I loved that about it. ” – Heaven of Horror Apr 16, 2026 Full Review Ballistic (2025) 60% 3/5 EDIT “As a revenge thriller and drama, Ballistic is very well-rounded. It is perhaps a little too long, and it becomes excruciating seeing Nance spiral, but there is a point to this. I can acknowledge and recognize that...” – Heaven of Horror Apr 15, 2026 Full Review The Whistler (2026) 2/5 EDIT “...a supernatural folk horror movie that could have been much better. It’s just too choppy and unengaging. Diane Guerrero is wonderful in the lead, but it’s not enough to make the movie recommendable. Still, if you enjoy folk horror with...” – Heaven of Horror Apr 14, 2026 Full Review Thinestra (2025) 3/5 EDIT “...about accepting yourself and seeing yourself through the eyes of those who care about you. I know this might sound very fluffy and not scary, but this IS a body horror movie, and it gets nasty. The practical effects of this movie were brilliantly...” – Heaven of Horror Apr 13, 2026 Full Review Thrash (2026) 43% 3/5 EDIT “...as a fan of Tommy Wirkola’s crazy filmmaking style, I can enjoy this, but overall, this isn’t a great movie. It’s very solid entertainment, but it will not be a movie I’m adding to any "Best Shark Movie" list. Watch it without high expectations or...” – Heaven of Horror Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Hunting Matthew Nichols (2024) 94% 4/5 EDIT “HUNTING MATTHEW NICHOLS is a horror mockumentary that works extremely well. To me, this just may be the best in this subgenre since The Blair Witch Project (1999). It stays true to its dogma while delivering a solid plot and efficient entertainment.” – Heaven of Horror Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Faces of Death (2026) 68% 3/5 EDIT “I especially enjoyed the focus on issues with fame and social media. The downside was that I got annoyed with the main protagonist. Fortunately, she’s portrayed by Barbie Ferreira, who does a great job. ” – Heaven of Horror Apr 9, 2026 Full Review Hot Milk (2025) 38% 4/5 EDIT “...both heartbreaking and healing. Emma Mackey is amazing in the lead role, and I found myself rooting for her in ways I rarely experience. You just want to help her, while also wanting her to help herself. It’s a...” – Womentainment Apr 9, 2026 Full Review Psycho Killer (2026) 9% 2/5 EDIT “...the ending of Psycho Killer is just bad. The edge and intensity it had early on just vanish as it turns into… well, something different. With a runtime of just 91 minutes, I would never have expected that it could fall so flat after such a strong...” – Heaven of Horror Apr 8, 2026 Full Review Exit 8 (2025) 92% 2/5 EDIT “...EXIT 8 does have moments that are incredibly effective and genuinely creepy. It’s just that the overall experience eventually drifts into a kind of mental fatigue.” – Heaven of Horror Apr 7, 2026 Full Review I Know Exactly How You Die (2026) 3/5 EDIT “...a Slasher Horror movie made with a low budget but with passion and gorgeous practical effects. We get a fairly simple premise, a small cast, and a solid pace. Overall, I’m a very pleased viewer. ” – Heaven of Horror Apr 6, 2026 Full Review Bone Keeper (2026) 3/5 EDIT “...the actual creature in this creature feature is why you should watch Bone Keeper. The special effects for the creature are SO GORGEOUS, and as the story evolved and...” – Heaven of Horror Apr 6, 2026 Full Review The Yeti (2026) 39% 2/5 EDIT “The actors and practical effects were the positives, while the small storyline and achingly slow pace were its ultimate downfall for me. Way too many lingering shots and scenes with not much content… but it did LOOK gorgeous!” – Heaven of Horror Apr 2, 2026 Full Review Deathstalker (2025) 89% 3/5 EDIT “This is how you pay tribute to something you love without breaking its spirit. What an upgrade!” – Heaven of Horror Apr 1, 2026 Full Review Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (2026) 76% 2/5 EDIT “...worth watching for its three leads. They all deliver what you would expect from them, and sometimes that’s enough. I mean, it’s not enough for this movie to be truly good, but it is enough that it’s worth watching for a nice night at home.” – Heaven of Horror Mar 27, 2026 Full Review They Will Kill You (2026) 64% 3/5 EDIT “...starts out like many classic survival or revenge movies (ultimately, They Will Kill You is both), but it quickly evolves into something more. Zazie Beetz is such a fierce actor who delivers perfectly timed comedic moments and intense fight...” – Heaven of Horror Mar 26, 2026 Full Review Ready or Not 2: Here I Come (2026) 73% 3/5 EDIT “For me, the ending was stronger than the beginning, but don’t you prefer that in any movie? In fact, I REALLY liked everything about the final moments of Ready or Not: Here I Come, so I’m ready for round three. Though I don’t think the...” – Heaven of Horror Mar 25, 2026 Full Review Alpha (2025) 58% 4/5 EDIT “...a coming-of-age story wrapped in a virus thriller, with a sleek layer of sci-fi woven into its DNA. Especially by use of an alternate-reality setting. The virus itself feels eerily familiar, though it’s presented in a strikingly new form. ” – Heaven of Horror Mar 24, 2026 Full Review Pretty Lethal (2026) 57% 3/5 EDIT “This is the kind of movie that would never have been made when I was a teenager. It’s all about girl power and sticking together. Also, the fight sequences are WILD. ” – Heaven of Horror Mar 24, 2026 Full Review 1000 Women in Horror (2025) 100% 4/5 EDIT “...even more intriguing was seeing many of the women who create horror. As in the writers, directors, and producers. All of them are key to the horror movies being made, so we can enjoy them. They all deserve recognition, and this Shudder documentary...” – Heaven of Horror Mar 20, 2026 Full Review Project Hail Mary (2026) 94% 4/5 EDIT “A truly epic adventure about friendship and science with Ryan Gosling at his most charming and endearing. Don’t think the 157-minute runtime means this is slow-burn, because it definitely isn’t. ” – Heaven of Horror Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Dead Lover (2025) 86% 3/5 EDIT “...I admit I was torn. On the one hand, it’s made with passion and full of weird and quirky elements, which I do love. However, on the other hand, I wanted it to utilize the film medium more. And yet, that’s clearly on me and not...” – Heaven of Horror Mar 18, 2026 Full Review
