Review: Sunny Family Cult S3: E1&2
It's safe to say that out of all of Crypt TV's web-series, Sunny Family Cult is perhaps the most grounded. There are no monsters or ghouls, only a bunch of serial killers, which can (and has) turn out to be true. Season Two ended on a cliffhanger, forcing us to wait to see what was... Continue Reading →

A Love Letter to 80s’ Horror: A Review of Meow
When it comes to short films on Crypt TV, they intend to be short and snappy. However, once and awhile, longer films such as Meow are released. These sort of films have a different approach.
