‘Clown in a Cornfield’ review: The fun side of Frendo

4 days ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

The B-movie charm and self-aware commentary of Clown in a Cornfield will make Frendo the Clown your new favorite slasher. Clown in a Cornfield. The name might sound cheesy, but it’s true to what you’re getting: a killer masked clown slashing its way through angsty teens. When it comes to B-movie horror, isn’t that exactly the type of chaos we hope for and love? Blood, carnage, and a creepy clown that channels all our past nightmares.
‘Until Dawn’ review: Midnight monster mash-up

2 weeks ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

Dark and unstructured, Until Dawn is both a faithful love letter to horror fans and an unfaithful adaptation for its gaming ones. The name Until Dawn might sound familiar if you’ve played a video game in the last decade. In 2015, Supermassive Games released Until Dawn, an interactive survival horror game, on the PlayStation 4 to great success.
‘Million Dollar Secret’ season 1 finale review: Gut intuition seals a satisfying victory

1 month ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

A new millionaire has been crowned on Netflix’s cutthroat reality TV competition, Million Dollar Secret. And no, we don’t mean another in-game Millionaire who’s trying to keep their identity a secret. We mean the real one – the winner who walked away with the big prize. We’ve been curious since the series premiere about how Million Dollar Secret would claim its winner … and how the show’s structure would progress with twists and strategy.
‘Million Dollar Secret’ season 1 premiere review: A Millionaire's guide to chaos & cash

1 month ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

What do you get when you combine the mystery of The Mole with the cutthroat aspects of The Trust? You get Netflix’s newest reality TV experiment, Million Dollar Secret. The game is another foray into the recent reality TV trend of players holding a secret identity or power competing for the group pot. Think of this style like games such as The Traitors on Peacock, The Anonymous on USA, Claim to Fame on ABC, or The Circle on Netflix.
‘The Traitors’ season 3 finale review: The Seer uncovers a dull ending

2 months ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

What started as a thunderous and thrilling season has ended on a dull whimper. Peacock’s The Traitors Season 3 walked to the Fire of Truth with a mellow endgame that failed to live up to the build-up before it. “The Day of Reckoning Is Upon Us” could’ve been an explosive finale, but this ending proves how important the earlier gameplay rounds are for what becomes of the finale. If certain decisions are made at the wrong time, the consequences will collect on their payments eventually.
‘The Traitors’ 3×10 review: “The Power of the Seer”

2 months ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

Danielle’s journey on Peacock’s The Traitors can’t ever be relaxing. It’s one of the most consistent arcs of The Traitors Season 3. Even when she finally recruited Britney to the Traitors (her long-awaited goal), she’s still hanging on by a thread. Or in the case of “The Power of the Seer”, it’s a cliffhanger vote. She’s only one vote away from reaching the finale, but the penultimate episode of Season 3 could be foreshadowing her disaster after weeks of schemes and campaigning.
‘The Traitors’ 3×09 review: “A Silent Assassin”

2 months ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

The Traitor war is over. After many fights and betrayals, we finally have a winner in the battle of Danielle vs. Carolyn on “A Silent Assassin”. Peacock’s The Traitors Season 3 has had a few rivalries that spanned the season, like Tom vs. Dolores, Tom vs. Chrishelle, and Boston Rob vs. Bob the Drag Queen to name a few. The Danielle vs. Carolyn war captured the true essence of how disorganized the Traitors turret was during the third season.
‘Heart Eyes’ review: Cupid's arrow hits its mark

2 months ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

Holiday-themed slashers aren’t new to the horror world. Between the tried-and-true Halloween classics (Halloween, Trick ‘r Treat) to the winter festivities (Black Christmas, Krampus), there’s a touch of scares peppered throughout the year. The same can be said even for the most romantic day of the year: Valentine’s Day. After all the chocolate hearts and Cupid’s arrow, Heart Eyes is a new rom-com slasher ready to give horror fans a bloody treat for their next date night.
‘The Traitors’ 3×08 review: “A B**** Is Lying”

2 months ago | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

The coffin theory has been put to rest on Peacock’s The Traitors. It may have taken several episodes, but the Faithfuls can finally move on and focus on a new game plan. “A B**** Is Lying” picks up after the thrilling highs of Boston Rob’s discovery as a Traitor to close the loop on Season 3’s other looming mystery. This episode, while mellow from a gameplay standpoint, was essential for the season’s narrative.
‘The Traitors’ 3×06 review: “A Dysfunctional Family”

Feb 4, 2025 | inbetweendrafts.com | Justin Carreiro

Have we ever seen a group of Traitors this disorganized and cutthroat? The Traitors Season 3 on Peacock sets a new standard for what not to do as a Traitor. Specifically, don’t turn against your fellow Traitors too early in the game! “A Dysfunctional Family” dug the Traitors into a deeper hole yet again, fostering another layer of distrust and greed. It’s a miracle that none of them got banished at the round table; they’re sealing their fates with all the underhanded schemes.
