Review: Saw X (2023)

Saw X (2023)

Rated R for sequences of grisly bloody violence and torture, language and some drug use

Popcorn Frights, Night 5: Wolfman's Got Nards (2018) and The Blob (1988)

It was '80s nostalgia night at Popcorn Frights last night, with the first film showing not being a horror film at all, but rather, a documentary about the 1987 cult classic The Monster Squad. The two films that followed, meanwhile, were a pair of '80s horror classics from director Chuck Russell, who was in attendance for a Q&A. The second of those films, A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, I'm happy to say still holds up exceptionally well as arguably the pinnacle of one of the decade's greatest franchises.

As for the other films...

Wolfman's Got Nards (2018)

Not rated

Review: Saw (2004)

Has it really been ten years since Saw first came out? Well, if the 10th anniversary rerelease of the film this weekend only is any indication, then yes, I am officially old. The horror films of my childhood (or at least my teenage years) are now nostalgic. How long will it be before we get the Scream-style parody of torture porn?

Saw (2004)

Rated R for strong grisly violence and language
