Welcome to the heart of Knockout Horror. This is where we keep the hundreds of reviews we’ve written over the years. Let’s be honest: the horror genre is a minefield. For every Hereditary, there are a dozen low-budget disasters waiting to waste your Friday night. That’s where we come in.
We watch the good, the bad, and the absolute trash so you don’t have to. From the latest theatrical blockbusters to the obscurest oddities hiding in the depths of Tubi and Shudder, you’ll find our honest, unpretentious, and jargon-free verdicts right here. No film school lectures, just a horror fan telling you if it’s worth the popcorn.

Todd Bogin delivers a realistic look at narcissistic abuse with Hidden Exposure. Liana Liberato shines in this relationship thriller, but is it actually horror?

Delaney Mundy delivers a nauseating found footage experience with Terror Eyes. A road trip to Joshua Tree turns into a “dark web” nightmare that fails on every level.

Tim Cruz blends The Bachelor with Scream in the Tubi Original The Final Rose. Does this satirical slasher deliver the gore or just a bunch of reality TV bickering?

Taylor Chien takes a beautiful Hawaiian backdrop and fills it with horror clichés in The Resort. Does this urban exploration horror offer chills or just bad acting?

Michael Madsen and Robert Davi star in a loosely Lovecraftian Tubi Original. The Lurking Fear (2023) is a jumbled, incoherent mess of an asylum horror.

Brett Bentman delivers a shark movie with barely any sharks. Bull Shark is a slow-burn drama about alcoholism that forgets it is supposed to be a horror.

John Riggins delivers an environmentalist nightmare with Shark Huntress. An activist seeks revenge on a shark while fighting “big plastic” in this bottom-of-the-barrel horror.

Jadon Cal delivers a predictably toothless shark thriller with Shark Waters. Despite a strong lead performance, the film is sunk by laughable CGI and a farcical script.

James Nunn delivers a formulaic shark thriller with Shark Bait. Despite a strong lead performance from Holly Earl, the film is sunk by unlikable characters and a generic script.

Spider One delivers a bachelorette party from hell in Bury the Bride. Does this desert-set revenge thriller subvert tropes or just succumb to poor editing?

Zac Locke delivers a masterclass in poor filmmaking with #Float. From a vile script to abhorrent characters, is this the most offensive horror in years?

Michael Dupret delivers a formulaic influencer-themed horror with #No_Filter. From stilted accents to tired tropes, does this social media slasher have any bite?
