Entertainment Journalist

I've been a freelance entertainment journalist, film & TV critic, feature writer and blogger since 2005. My work has been featured on a wide range of sites including IGN, Dread Central, Now Playing Magazine, Modern Borefare, Gamer's Pulse, and more. I created the terrifying movie marathon blog 31 Flavors of Terror but it got too scary.

How's Season Two of The Orville So Far? - IGN

Seth McFarlane's sci-fi comedy is having a solid sophomore season. With eight episodes aired, season two of The Orville is off to a strong start. It continues to blend equal parts science fiction and social philosophy, though its proportion of outrageous gags has declined markedly in favor of subtler comedic elements.

Jeepers Creepers 3 Review - IGN

More like Jeepers Sleepers? As a die hard fan of the first two Jeepers Creepers movies, it pains me to say this: Jeepers Creepers 3 is the low point of the franchise, one from which I hope, but doubt, it will recover.

10 Giant Movie Monsters That Could Beat Up King Kong - IGN

God save the king... he'll need the help. Reportedly standing 100 feet tall, King Kong returns to cinemas in Kong: Skull Island this weekend in what may be his biggest form ever. While Kong may be king on Skull Island, in the (ahem) larger world of movie monsters he sometimes comes up a bit, uh, short.

The Blood Stream: 7 Nights of Darkness - Dread Central

apr14/the-blood-stream.jpg The Blood Stream mines the Internet for horror gold so you don't have to, delivering streamable horror titles never before featured on Dread Central. Occasionally I'll dredge up something good, maybe even great. To find those gems, I'll have to sift through a lot of breathtakingly bad cinema. Enjoy!
