Ghosts of War (2020) ☆☆(2/4): Soldiers stuck in a predictable haunted spot
“Ghosts of War” looks like an interesting hybrid of two different genres at first, but it ultimately lets us down a lot. While you may be entertained a bit by how different genre elements clash with each other for a … Continue reading

Ghost Walk (2018) ☆☆☆(3/4): As time goes backward for her
South Korean film “Ghost Walk” is a modest but haunting fantasy drama about urban loneliness and isolation. As its heroine calmly journeys backward through her last several days as a ghost, the movie slowly establishes its melancholic mood surrounding her … Continue reading
Annabelle Comes Home (2019) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A creepy and perilous night for babysitting
“Annabelle Comes Home”, the seventh installment in the Conjuring Universe franchise, delivers exactly what its target audiences want although it is not wholly satisfying in my trivial opinion. While it is surely packed with enough creepy atmosphere and a number … Continue reading
A Ghost Story (2017) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): An atypical ghost story
“A Ghost Story” is not your average ghost story. Although it may initially look ridiculous due to its rather goofy premise, the movie slowly comes to engage us as its unconventional narrative rolls along with its ghost hero, and it … Continue reading
I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House (2016) ☆☆☆(3/4): Steady creepiness
“I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House” is a steady exercise in creepiness. After establishing its small, sparse setting, the movie patiently dials up the level of tension bit by bit as its ill-fated heroine is slowly … Continue reading
