My "Green Room" and "Convergence" Reviews from BIFF Appear in "VideoScope" Magazine



In Phantom of the Movies' VideoScope magazine's Winter 2016 issue (#97), I review two films that I saw as part of South Korea's Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) last October. Jeremy Saulnier's sophomore effort Green Room is a thrilling follow-up to his Blue Ruin debut, while Drew Hall's Convergence is a horror/thriller hybrid with lofty goals. Look for VideoScope on newsstands near you or order it through the magazine's official website, videoscopemag.com.

Catching Up!

It's been far too long since my last update because I have been so swamped with writing reviews and articles that I haven't had time to check in here! Since my previous update, I attended the Scream Queen Film Festival Tokyo (SQFFT) tour stop in Nagoya in February, and you will find my Gruesome Magazine reviews of many of the short horror films I saw there at http://gruesomemagazine.com/author/josephperry/. Doc Rotten, host of the Horror News Radio podcast and editor-in-chief of Gruesome Magazine, recorded a podcast with me last week about SQFFT which should go live very soon. I'll update when it is released. I also wrote two articles for SQ Horror Magazine; that issue is scheduled for publication on May 1. Again, I'll update here when it hits the streets. More soon! Thanks for checking in!
