Hokum (2026)

 

So here it is, one of the films I've been looking forward to in this already great year for horror. An author, aka annoying Yank, travels to Ireland to scatter his Mothers, staying in an apparently haunted Hotel. "Creepy" and "a fear of dread" said the critics, really? It's never creepy, it's dull, laborious, the main character utterly obnoxious, there's a few jump scenes, if you can call them that, how this garbage got such critical acclaim is beyond me, a borderline turkey of a film, 'Hokum'? Hogwash more like.
