River of Darkness

River of Darkness

Usually when I hear a wrestler is going to be in a horror film the thought of it kind of irks my spirit. With the exception of Rowdy Piper who is good in any kind of horror film and Kane in See No Evil; most horror films pretty much go no where when a wrestler is...

The Riverman

The Riverman

THE RIVERMAN is a bland and lazy made for television movie that has all the appeal of a dramatization from "America's Most Wanted." The movie never makes a statement or reason for the viewer to become invested in the main characters, which are based on the intense...

Rising Evil

Rising Evil

NGM Films, a low-budget film company based in Liverpool, is working on a feature film called Rising Evil, and, in an attempt to raise money for their feature film, they created a short film called, strangely enough, Rising Evil. According to NGM Films’ website and a...

Rise: Blood Hunter

Rise: Blood Hunter

The worst movie to date to emerge from Ghost House Pictures (who barely released it in theatres), this ponderously paced, distressingly overlong misfire looks vaguely promising in the first few minutes. Playing a high class call girl, the hot chick from POINT PLEASANT...

Ringu Ø: Bâsudei

Ringu Ø: Bâsudei

In many respects, Norio Tsuruta’s prequel to Hideo Nakata’s Ringu films trumps his predecessor as he provides a very coherent, though complex, elucidation of the figure of Sadako, the evil menace of the previous entries in the franchise. However, unlike the previous...

Ringu 2

Ringu 2

In the course of his follow-up to the most successful film in Japanese history, Hideo Nakata attempts to continue his narrative while expanding upon the genesis and phenomena found within Ringu. During the process, unable to maintain the many irons in which he has...

Ringu

Ringu

Director Hideo Nakata single-handedly kicked started the J-horror movement after making the highest grossing film in Japanese history, Ringu. By merely revamping the traditional ghost story, he subtly posits a renunciation of technology while successfully pulling the...

The Ring 2

I’m aware that this is going to merit a lot of viewer’s ire in my granting Hideo Nakata’s sequel, The Ring Two, a star rating while refusing to even score Gore Verbinski’s blockbuster effort, The Ring. However, once one considers that Nakata didn’t merely remake his...

The Ring

The Ring

Though Gore Verbinski’s rendition of Hideo Nakata’s Ringu is a slightly downgraded effigy of its forerunner, which I liked, I cannot advocate The Ring because it stands as a blatant admittance that many people are unwilling to watch a film if it contains subtitles or...

Right to Die

Right to Die

The Masters of Horror Series has been pretty good so far, and while I've had the pleasure of reviewing most of the Second season DVD's so far, I knew I was bound to find one that didn't go over so well with me. That's the case with Right to Die. It was just one of...

Right At Your Door

Right At Your Door

Released by Lion’s Gate in the UK just a couple of days ahead of the 5th anniversary of the events of September 11th, 2001, RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR is a small scale but frighteningly credible movie about a world forever shaken and changed by what happened on 9/11 and -...

The Rig

The Rig

I am not sure if this film was made over the summer or not, but I find coincidental that a horror film that takes place on a oil rig just happens to be seeing the light of day or was made in the light of the recent Gulf of Mexico oil disaster. I’m sure The Rig won’t...

Riding The Bullet

Stephen King is the one who actually should be the man to blame for making me become such a big horror fan. I've always enjoyed his books since I was young. I can remember as a kid watching "Cojo" and being scared of St. Bernard dogs. Now that almost everyone of his...
