#Brightburn introduces an amazing concept; what if those iconic superheroes we all know... were the villain in a horror film? This is a concept that's been toyed with before, but never in an actual film. #JamesGunn, his brother, and his cousin lend their talent back towards the genre that got them started with Brightburn, a film that could open the door to a new 'hero-horror' genre.

In my #BrightburnMovieReview I talk about how close this team was to making something really special. Horror films can often be subtextual, and Brightburn was no different. So will this film burn bright? Or will it be forgotten fast than a speeding bullet?
