I am very disappointed with this film, First off although I got this film for free, lie I do with most of the films I review, I must say that it had me fooled with the great box cover and the clever looking snapshots that grace the back of it. I mean dam! I give the...

“Well, we fucked up.” --Burt Reynolds’s character of Lewis Many would initially quibble with including John Boorman’s Deliverance in a horror listing.1 However, once the division is made between the supernatural and the naturalistic, the 1972 classic becomes...

Alexandre Aja’s 2006 remake of Wes Craven’s The Hills Have Eyes bears the tagline “The Lucky Ones Die First.” The slogan for Mark Allen’s debut film, Delirium--which also revolves around a group of individuals stranded in the desert--is “The Lucky One Dies First.” See...

DELICATESSEN is a film that I only really caught pieces of it when it was on cable, but always ended up coming into it, halfway into or toward the end of the film. It's always been a film everyone always said I should sit down and watch, as it's a film that is both...

John Landis mixes dark humor and gore in Deer Women, one of the better Masters of Horror episodes in my opinion. It's not really a scary film, but it does have some pretty gruesome scenes including dead bodies that are pretty much stomped into bloody pieces. Its quite...

“This young Italian guy is starting to worry me.” --Alfred Hitchcock referring to Dario Argento Dario Argento (Suspiria, Tenebre, Opera, Phenomena, Inferno), the foremost visual auteur of the Italian horror directors (more consistent than his often-cited counterpart,...

It seems there is a new tread of horror/war flicks, last month we had "The Bunker" (Review) come out last month, and now we have "Deathwatch", which I liked a lot better. Deathwatch has a really great story and a great cast which includes Andy Serkis (Gollum from...

Michael Bassett issues a claustrophobic interpretation of the horrors of the first World War with his screenwriting and directorial debut, Deathwatch. However, the film--in many respects--is too authentic in that the setting dilutes character identification. This,...

The Asylum is a fairly new company in the straight to video horror market, as of late I have not been very impressed with what I have seen, but "Death Valley: The Revenge of Bloody Bill" is a step in the right direction, now it was not by any means a good film but it...

Not that many films make me jump, in fact it's very rare for me to even flinch at most horror films. Well "Death Tunnel" made me jump a few times. The story is based on true events that took place in Kentucky at "Waverly Hill Sanatorium". The filmmakers took the...

Death Sentence is by far the most effective and sensitive film I have seen this year. I know I've been bringing up the fact that I'm a new parent in a lot of my reviews this year, but this is a film that any parent would have a hard time sitting though, especially any...

In 1975 Roger Coman produced a film titled DEATH RACE 2000 which was directed by Paul Bartel, and starring David Carradine, Simone Griffeth and Sylvester Stallone. The film only cost three hundred thousand dollars to make and because an instant box office success,...

I don't know if Maverick Entertainment got some kind of deal when they picked up their last few horror films from over in the U.K., but man are these films really starting to get to me. At least with Death Knows Your Name it was a little bit better than the last film...

Typical of the uneven nature of most of 2007’s “8 Films To Die For” releases, this Stan Winston production revolves around creatures that look like someone at Stan Winston Studios created a composite of earlier, better Winston-created monsters (namely, the Predator,...

The best thing about Devi Snively’s short film DEATH IN CHARGE is that even from the short 15 minutes I saw, I think I could pick out another of her movies in a line-up, and that’s a good thing. Her style is definitely distinctive; she says she’s aiming for a comics...
