This is very much a low-budget indie endeavor, evidenced by the spotty quality of the acting, the audio, and the awkward musical montage segments. Still, I had more fun watching it than Iโd expected to.
Movie of the Day:
Corruptor (2017)
* This film was released in the US in October of 2017.
* This film was directed by Dorothy Booraem, also known for Wake the Witch (2010) and Blood Rites (2012). It was written by Booraem and Chad Haufschild, with a story by Dustin Ferguson.
Megan Garcia was easily my favorite actor in the film, with a range to her performance that allowed for a character depth that the others could not achieve. Sheโs got a Kirsten Dunst-esque vibe about her that works in the role, plus I found myself taken with her tattoos. ๐
@WisdomSatanic They completely (and likely intentionally) overlook the numerous aspects of the religion pertaining to self-preservation, responsibility, intellect, accomplishment, and personal elevation that make the alien elite elite in the first place.
@WisdomSatanic That is a point that all too often falls on deaf ears and blind eyes. Those who only skim or half-ass their way through The Satanic Bible are often quick to erroneously conclude that Satanism sees life as some sort of reckless Caligula-style house party.
No, this film wonโt be taking the place of any classic slashers with well-defined antagonists, but it was an entertaining film albeit an overblown one with a silly final act. I didnโt expect it to try and go psychological and it didnโt entirely work, but I appreciate the attempt.
Movie of the Day:
Pitfall (2025)
* This film premiered at the Screamfest LA International Horror Film Festival in the US on October 15, 2025.
* This film was directed by James Kondelik and written by Victor Rose with a story by Kondelik.
Scott figured that his biggest problem was surviving the night in the pitfall until his friends would be able to rescue him the following morning by daylight, but he hadnโt counted on this.
