Review by Jon Donnis "No One Will Save You," a cinematic rarity in the realm of science fiction horror, emerges as a remarkable creation by the talented Brian Duffield. In the lead role as Brynn, Kaitlyn Dever delivers a captivating performance, supported by a narrative that sparks contemplation, an unconventional use of silence, and exceptional acting throughout. What truly distinguishes this film is its remarkable scarcity of spoken words, amounting to a mere five over the course of its 93-minute runtime. Surprisingly, this lack of dialogue doesn't detract from its storytelling; instead, it introduces an innovative layer to the movie. Kaitlyn Dever's portrayal stands as a testament to her remarkable talent, relying on expressions and sounds to convey a spectrum of emotions and command the screen effectively. The storyline orbits around Brynn, a seamstress entangled in grief and isolation. The intrusion of humanoid aliens into her life sets in motion a sequence of ev

I thought I would turn the tables on our resident interviewer Mr David Kempf, and interview him myself for his new book Tales of Monster Madness.  Out now on Kindle and Paperback at  https://amzn.to/3PMC4io Tell us about Tales of Monster Madness. It’s my new short story collection using classic horror and monster characters. Why do you think readers are still interested in classic monsters? Classic monsters have really stood the test of time. Both in books and movies. I remember when I was a kid and I used to watch classic universal monsters on Chiller Theater. Dr. Shock and his sidekick Dingbat, a silly bat puppet, hosted Chiller Theater, and there was a show called Shock Theater in Chattanooga Tennessee. It was really a great show and I used to be really happy and excited to always see what monster would come up next. In-between showing movies, he did his silly skits and it was very enjoyable especially when I was really young. When I was a bit older, I saw Mad Monster Party, which

"My Animal," directed by Jacqueline Castel, intertwines supernatural horror, romance, and the challenges of teenage life within a small northern town. While the film possesses some strengths, it ultimately falls short due to its execution of the plot, inconsistent acting performances, and a lack of authentic horror elements. The storyline centers around Heather, an aspiring goalie in a hockey-obsessed town, struggling with her turbulent relationship with her alcoholic mother, Patti. A key element of the narrative is Heather's burgeoning romance with Jonny, a tormented figure skater and newcomer to the town. Their relationship unfolds amidst the backdrop of Heather grappling with her hidden sexual orientation and a familial curse that transforms her into a feral wolf under the full moon. "My Animal" shines brightest in its portrayal of the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals in tight-knit communities. The film offers a perceptive exploration of coming out in a
