Wow, what a messed up horror flick, take "American Psycho 2", "Misery" and add it to the Red Riding Hood Story we heard as kids, except what if The Big Bad Wolf and Red Riding hood teamed up and kicked Grandma's ass ala "Misery" style, and went out in the middle of...

FREAKDOG, like jobbing director Paddy Breathnach’s last horror film, SHROOMS, is a competent, good-looking, slick product let down by mediocre material and all too obvious attempts to appeal to the worldwide (read : American) market. In this case, the latter is even...

When I got this DVD in the mail today I was actually shocked to see that the site was quoted on the front cover. I said to myself, I must be watching to many movie, cause I don't even remember seeing this one, maybe Steven reviewed it. So I checked the archives....

While not a typical horror film, the new film Red Hill, the latest export from Australia, has Greg MacLean, responsible for the highly entertaining Wolf Creek and Rogue as its executive producer. The film, the feature film debut of commercial director Patrick Hughes,...

Since Chris Sivertson’s bold, disturbing THE LOST, Jack Ketchum movie adaptations have sprung up everywhere, with OFFSPRING upcoming and promising to be the nastiest of them all. RED differs from both those (and THE GIRL NEXT DOOR) in its absence of shock tactics and...

What a trip this film is, really. Kids there is seriously no need to use drugs to experience something strange and bizarre in your life, just watch this film and all those fucked up fantasies will come to life right before your eyes and you won't have to put one ounce...

[REC] was one of the most memorable horror movies of this century’s maiden decade : a relentlessly intense and superbly crafted entry in the still-active first-person-camera sub-genre of fake-reality horror. It was transformed into modern classic territory by virtue...

The renaissance period of Spanish horror cinema continues apace with a film that joins the hitherto American-dominated cycle of first-person, faux reality handheld horror movies. The trend was effectively initiated by THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT and recently taken into...

[REC] is the film on which QUARANTINE was based. In fact, QUARANTINE is almost a shot-for-shot remake of [REC] from start to finish. I happened to see QUARANTINE first and, whether or not that ruined the effect that [REC] should have had on me will always remain a...

A few years back, when my primary focus on the site was reviewing any independent film that came my way, I came across a little film called Machined. After being burdened by many backyard horror flicks and poorly made low budget-ones, Machined was like a breath of...

Stuart Gordon blasted the horror genre with a shot in the dark when he presented his adaptation of H. P. Lovecraft’s short story, “Hubert West--Reanimator.” Now, I’ll be honest, the first time I watched this movie I didn’t see what all the hubbub was about but, after...

Admittedly, I’d forsaken television once I entered collage at the end of the last century and never looked back. As such, perhaps I’m not the “expert” in respect to the subject matter of Rafal Zielinski’s film--reality television--in that I’ve never taken in one...

Kamal Ahmed, best known as one-half of the now defunct Jerky Boys, is a director and, at that, twice over in the field of feature-length cinema. Interestingly, given Ahmed’s history, neither is the previous effort of four years prior, God Has a Rap Sheet, or...

Following the coal-black, broad satire of POSTAL and his nihilistic contribution to the post-SAW visceral horror stakes (SEED), Uwe Boll gives us his take on the FALLING DOWN notion of a guy who snaps and unleashes his pent-up demons on the public at large. Only this...
