    119.MP4 (2025) Review – Bizarre DIY Found Footage on Tubi

    ByRichie 23rd February 202623rd February 2026 Horror Movie Reviews, Horror on Tubi

    119.MP4 is an ultra-DIY, experimental found footage film that feels more like underground performative art than a traditional horror movie. Is this bizarre, convention-defying Tubi find actually worth your time?

    Exhibit A (2007) Ending Explained – Breaking Down The Grim Finale

    ByRichie 20th February 202620th February 2026 Horror Movie Endings Explained

    Found-footage horror doesn’t get much more miserable than this. We break down the deeply uncomfortable ending to the British thriller Exhibit A (2007), exploring the terrifying reality of toxic pride, family annihilators, and a bloke who just couldn’t face the music.

    Dropbear (2025) Review – It’s Ridiculous and I Love It!

    ByRichie 17th February 202617th February 2026 Horror Movie Reviews, Horror on Tubi

    Dropbear is an objectively terrible movie that manages to be an absolute riot for the right audience. It’s a z-grade creature feature that leans heavily into its absurd premise, offering farcical kills and special effects that are, frankly, completely pants. While the joke wears a bit thin by the final act, if you fancy watching killer koalas rip out throats while the cast plays it straight, this “so bad it’s good” gem is perfect for a beer-and-pizza night.

    New Fears Eve (2025) Review – A Bloody Good Time

    ByRichie 16th February 202616th February 2026 Horror Movie Reviews

    New Fears Eve is a gloriously unapologetic throwback to the era of “bottom shelf” rental gems. While it struggles with a slow setup and some flat acting, the film overcomes its low-budget limitations with a relentless commitment to creative, stomach-churning practical effects and a high kill count. If you value “the red stuff” over high-brow plotting, this office-party-gone-wrong is a bloody good time that knows exactly what it is.

    The Confession (2025) Review – Wasted Potential

    ByRichie 13th February 202613th February 2026 Horror Movie Reviews

    The Confession (2025) offers a genuinely fresh take on the Pied Piper folklore, but can it survive a script that seems determined to bury it under a mountain of generic supernatural tropes and terrible CGI? We take a look at this frustrating exercise in wasted potential.

    Evidence of the Boogeyman (2025) Review – Another Padded Found Footage Horror

    ByRichie Posted on7th February 20267th February 2026 Updated on7th February 2026

    Evidence of the Boogeyman (2025) is a textbook example of found footage padding. While it features a gnarly 80s-style monster and a charismatic lead in Naomi Mechem-Miller, the 94-minute runtime is filled with repetitive “nontent” and a plot that feels like it’s running on a default setting. It’s free on Tubi, but is it worth your time? Let’s find out.

    The Hem (2025) Review – Found Footage For The Easily Pleased

    ByRichie Posted on2nd February 20262nd February 2026 Updated on2nd February 2026

    If found footage horror comes in a multitude of different flavours, Tyler Russell’s The Hem (2025) would be vanilla. A by-the-numbers tale of a haunted church and a spooky bride, it’s the kind of movie made for the undemanding horror fan who prefers familiarity over surprises. We take a look.

    ByRichie Posted on22nd January 202630th January 2026 Updated on30th January 2026

    Killer Whale (2026) continues the January tradition of terrible aquatic horror movies. Despite a committed performance from Virginia Gardner, this seasploitation flick is sunk by abysmal green screen effects, a remedial script, and a surprisingly boring narrative. Read our full review to see why you should stay on dry land.

    Horror in the High Desert 4: Majesty (2025) Review – A Threadbare Sequel

    ByRichie Posted on20th January 202620th January 2026 Updated on20th January 2026

    Horror in the High Desert 4: Majesty attempts to expand the franchise’s lore with a generational mystery, but the result is a tedious exercise in diminishing returns. With “vintage” footage that looks distractingly digital and a runtime padded by endless walking, this fourth entry offers zero scares and even less narrative progression. Read our full review to see why this franchise is running on fumes.
