Apartment 7A (2024) Review | Broadway Horror Meets Rosemary’s Baby

Army of Darkness Was NOTHING Like Amy Expected

Continuing our Road to Evil Dead Burn, we’re talking Army of Darkness — and this one completely surprised Amy. After avoiding it for years because she thought it was basically Monty Python with horror, Amy finally watched Army of Darkness all the way through…and it became her favorite Evil Dead movie so far. We talk about why this one feels more like Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean, and The Goonies than traditional horror, how Ash fully becomes Ash, and why Amy thinks Hollywood absolutely missed the chance to make Bruce Campbell a 90s rom-com leading man. We also get into the Tiny Ashes, Evil Ash, the skeleton army, the Necronomicon words, and the time we met Sam Raimi, Ted Raimi, and Bruce Campbell. Spoilers after ratings. The Fear Review is hosted by William and Amy.

Evil Dead II Created Horror’s Most Iconic Hero

We’re continuing our road to Evil Dead Burn with Evil Dead II, and this is the movie where the franchise really starts to feel like the Evil Dead everyone remembers. The original was straight horror. This one brings in the slapstick, the bigger Deadites, the chainsaw hand, and the moment where Ash finally becomes Ash. We talk about why this sequel feels so different, why Amy had more fun with it than the original, and why Bruce Campbell’s performance turns Ash into one of horror’s most iconic heroes.

I Thought The Evil Dead Was Supposed to Be Funny... | The Evil Dead (1981)

We’re kicking off our Road to Evil Dead Burn with the movie that started it all: The Evil Dead. William has loved this franchise for years. Amy thought she knew it because she knew Ash, the chainsaw, and the quotes. Turns out, the original is a very different beast. Before the boomstick, before the one-liners, and before Ash became the Ash everyone remembers, Sam Raimi’s 1981 original was a gritty, gross, straight-up horror movie that still managed to catch Amy off guard. In this episode, we talk about why The Evil Dead still works, Bruce Campbell’s surprisingly serious performance, the practical effects that made Amy gag, and whether the original still holds up today. Then we get into spoilers and talk ankle pencils, cottage cheese gore, basement banging, and all the reasons this movie still feels completely unhinged.

Forbidden Fruits Review: This “Cute” Witch Movie Gets Unbelievably Nasty

We checked out Forbidden Fruits on Shudder, and it ended up being a fun one. For most of it, Amy and I were both enjoying the cute, witchy, glossy vibe. It kind of feels like if the girls from The Craft listened to Spice Girls instead of The Cure. Then the last stretch kicks in and reminds you very quickly that, yes, this belongs on the horror aisle. In this episode, we talk about the movie’s tone, the Diablo Cody-adjacent feel, Victoria Pedretti as Cherry, the Marilyn Monroe confessionals, the emoji rules, and whether Forbidden Fruits really feels like horror before the ending. Then, after our ratings, we get into spoilers and talk about the big kill sequence, the twist, and why the ending got Amy looking away. A screener was provided by Shudder via AMC Global.

Leviticus Is Basically Conversion Therapy It Follows

Backrooms and Obsession have been standouts in a really good stretch of horror lately, and Leviticus belongs in that conversation. This one is basically conversion therapy It Follows, which is a weird combination, but it works. William thought the horror hook was strong, simple, and effective. Amy had a harder time with the heavier side of the movie and spent most of it wanting to get these kids out of that town. We start spoiler-free, give our Fear Review ratings, and then move into spoilers after a clear warning.
