Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning

★★★★ Liked Watched

We live and die in the shadows, for those we hold close, and those we never meet.

Final Destination Bloodlines

This one hit me in the feels—and later, I’ll explain why. Legacy horror sequels are always a gamble, but Bloodlines lands on the right side of the odds. The story holds up, with no glaring plot holes (at least on first watch), and Death’s presence feels smarter, more deliberate—an evolution from previous installments.

Fuck the Fellini festival!

Fun, sleazy, and gloriously over-the-top—Class of Nuke ’Em High is peak Troma. The acting is hilariously bad, the gore is wildly creative, and the whole thing runs on pure chaotic energy. Honestly, these high schoolers were mutants before the nuclear waste even hit.
