Movie Review: Halloween Ends

This week on End Credits, this is Halloween! In our inevitable Halloween Week show, we will have the inevitable review as we follow up our shows about Halloween, and Halloween Kills with Halloween Ends. And since one good horror franchise deserves another, or all of them (?), we will finally, and scientifically, determine which horror franchise stands above all the others.

Movie Review: Pearl

This week on End Credits, it’s the Mia Goth appreciation hour. Almost. We are going to talk about the latest entry in Ti West’s unexpected horror trilogy about fame, sex, and sociopathy in Texas. and it’s called Pearl. And since we’re talking about one prequel as the main review of this week’s show, we’re going to make a point and talk about other prequels to kick things off.

Movie Review: Glorious

This week on End Credits it’s about to get spooky. Yes, we’re about half-a-month early when it comes to the official start of Halloween season, but we’re jumping the proverbial gun with a little end of summer tribute to horror and scary things. We’re talking about some of our favourite (recent) scary movies, and then we will see if Glorious is worthy of that list.
