Bloody Mary is one of the most famous urban legends, so it is somewhat surprising that a slasher film about the notorious and deadly ghost didn't gain more traction when it was released in 2006. Bloody Mary follows an innocent game of Bloody Mary played among the nurses of a psychiatric facility that unleashes a malevolent spirit, prompting the sister of one of her victims to investigate. While the film probably tackled more ambitious twists than it needed to, resulting in a confusing and und...

While it did become something of a critical darling upon release, The Hole in the Ground was largely and sadly overlooked. Playing with common paternal fears and anxietieswith excellent results, it follows a single mother disturbed by her son's strange and disturbing behavior before she meets an old woman who advises her the boy is not her son. While the story hits some interesting beats along the way and isn't afraid to go for some ambitious twists, The Hole in the Ground's real brilliance l...

Sep 13, 2016 · Mirrors are present throughout the whole movie, maybe not too prominently for a film titled after them, but certainly in a significant fashion.
