Movie Review: 1st Summoning (2018)

Being a found footage flick the following sinister synopsis for 1st Summoning is going to sound awfully familiar to any cat or creep familiar with the genre: four student filmmakers set off to the east end of fucking nowhere to shoot a lil’ demonic doc about a location reputed to be a hang out for a Satanic cult. Along the way, they talk to various towns folk foremost of which is the ultra-weird Pastor Youngblood (Jason MacDonald), a dude that just screams “I’m in on this Satanic shit like fucking gangbusters you hipster filmmaking doofuses…now here, eat my avocado toast of DOOM!”…wait, where was I? Oh yeah, these folks bicker, ass around in the dark and the woods, and find that the evil rumored to curse the land is still very much a thing! While the story of 1st Summoning isn’t going to set the world ablaze with it’s stunning inventiveness and originality, it really doesn’t have to. This is

A Review Of Eric Blue’s Thriller Beacon Point

A group of hikers lost on the Appalachian Trail stumble across an ancient secret that threatens their very survival in Eric Blue’s Beacon Point. Blue, who makes his feature film directorial debut with Beacon Point, also penned the screenplay. Rae Oliver, Jon Briddell, Eric Goins, Jason Burkey, RJ Shearer, Takara Clark, Megan Gallacher, Jason MacDonald, Jayson Warner Smith, Randall Taylor and Paisley Scott star in this film that tells of land taken over by dark entities when the Cherokee were forced off their land. The first scene of the film follows two men hunting something deep in the Appalachian Mountains. We don’t see what they are hunting, but those are no regular hunting rifles they are carrying. We next see Drake (Jon Bridell), a wilderness Ranger with a troubled past.
