“The Shutterbug Man” Creeps Out And Unsettles With 4 Minutes
ďťż Back in October we talked about a film festival in Miami which had a slew of shorts attached. One such short caught the attention of We Are Indie Horror and apparently the rest of the world. Chris Walshâs animated creep-fest The Shutterbug Man has been completed for about a year now and has successfully traveled the world inside the festival circuit gaining positive reviews and praise across the...[Read More]
Feature Review: ‘Hell Fire’ Who Is Worst – Humanity Or Antichrist?
Hell Fire implicitly posits the question, Whoâs worseâ humanity or the Antichrist? FearMaker Marc Frattoâs film isnât one that plays nice in answering that questionâ and for good reasonâ seeking to expose the lengths of a violent and turbulent world. One where humanity has seemingly undone itself in a perpetual cycle of violence and decadence. Donât let this unassuming profundity fool you into bel...[Read More]
Review: âWhen Black Birds Flyâ Transports To Another Dimension
Animated movies are not usually associated with the horror genre. When they are, people think of The Corpse Bride and other Tim Burton and Henry Selick classics. When an R-rated surreal bloody mess of an animation is said to be released, We Are Indie Horror jumps all over it. We had the opportunity to experience a film like none other and even 24 hours later, we cannot shake ScreamerClauzâs latest...[Read More]
K. Pervaiz’ “Maya” Turning Heads At Festivals
âWhen night falls, keep your children indoors, for the devils are out and about at this time. When an hour of the night goes by, you can let them go.â SahĂŽh al-BukhârĂŽ: (3280, 5623) K. Pervaiz, who was a Featured FearMaker last year, has recently finished her debut feature film Maya through her production company Bad Wolf Films. The film was written and directed by Pervaiz, who also co-stars in th...[Read More]
Review: ‘House of Manson’ is a Fascinating and Visceral Biopic
Charles Manson elicits no introduction from me in this writing. However, it is not because I donât believe he deserves one, but only because he seems to be a familiarly dark staple in American pop-culture. Manson has somehow managed to weasel himself into the pantheon of cultural icons the likes of Elvis Presley, The Beatles, or Marilyn Monroe. Itâs strange that a person so reviled, holds such a m...[Read More]
Lilin’s Brood and the History of the Found Footage Film
The found footage genre continues to be an evanescent force revealing few symptoms of fatigue that most fads, by now, would start exhibiting. But with films like Lilinâs Brood the genre continues to surprise and enliven the genre exploring uncharted themes and subjects while dabbling in crafty methods of execution. Before I go on with Lilinâs Brood, letâs talk about the lengthy process of success ...[Read More]
Review: âLittle Dead Rotting Hoodâ Takes Bite Out of Classic Fairy Tale
From director, Jared Cohn (Hulk Blood Tapes and Buddy Hutchins), Little Dead Rotting Hood, the newest from famed low-budget horror house The Asylum, the ubiquitous masterminds behind the Sharknado franchise, is perhaps one of the coolest fairy-tale updates, and lycan movies I have stumbled upon in quite some time. Being the sucker that I am for ferocious furballs, it is no surprise that I found en...[Read More]
Review: ‘Preternatural’ Delves Into the Found Footage Genre
Hailing from England, Gav Chuckie SteelâsPreternatural is a strange trip of a movie and one that Iâm sure youâll enjoy! This horror-comedy, about a duo of amateur filmmakers that set out to make a film of their own, is an interesting journey into postmodern self-reflexivity, shot like a mockumentary. Possibly fed-up with the tired cliches of the found footage horror genre, Dixon and Gavin (Dixon B...[Read More]

Storch  and Delaney Hathaway, respectively), dealing with adolescence and the pains and nuisance of home life. But things get strange in their quiet small town, with shadowy humanoid figures looming in the forest nearby. These same mysterious figures could be the cause of a recent trend of m...[Read More]
