It's very hard to pull off a good sci-fi film with a minimal budget. Science Fiction is a genre that usually does best when the visual effects look stunning and the story is out of this world. The same goes with a horror-sci-fi film. You need something that looks and...

Writer-director James Watkins - who co-wrote the equally despondent MY LITTLE EYE and has the unenviable task of scripting the upcoming THE DESCENT 2 - has made a nihilistic, relentlessly intense hoodie-generation variation on WHO COULD KILL A CHILD? It takes a...

How does one person have the balls to take a trademarked Sesame Street character and turn him into a ruthless killer? My guess is that this film was actually made for the pure purpose of: A: For the pure fun of filmmaking. B: To showcase the talent of the filmmakers....

Most short horror films serve one purpose and one purpose only--as stepping stones for filmmakers wanting a larger budget. The genre is perfect for hopeful up-and-comers for it does not demand star recognition because--and unlike in most other categories of...

Wouldn’t you expect something a little better from the man who brought forth one of the most frightening films in cinematic history? Texas Chainsaw Massacre, then this? Well, I guess we all can’t have our cake and eat it to, but we can enjoy slaughtering trash such as...

Even with the combined screenwriting efforts of Curt Siodmak (I Walked with a Zombie, The Wolf Man, Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man, Son of Dracula, House of Frankenstein) and George Worthing Yates (Them!), director Fred Sears fails to achieve his goal of making a...

Just a quick warning to anyone who might read this review. Before moving forward, please note that this review will contain some spoilers. So you've been warned. Upon first view of the trailer for EAGLE EYE I thought it was going to be a film that had a similar...

In the past year my friend Chris could not stop talking about this film. So when it finally arrived at my doorstep, I knew it was one I was going to have to check out for myself. Chris said the film had all kinds of budget problems and everything. In fact its said...

As an actor, William Butler had the distinction of being the only guy to be killed on screen by Jason Voorhees (in FRIDAY THE 13TH THE NEW BLOOD), Leather face (in the third TEXAS CHAINSAW movie) and Freddy Krueger (in an episode of FREDDY’S NIGHTMARES). As a...

"Funnyman" is a British Horror/Comedy that co-stars horror icon Christopher Lee. It's kind of like a throwback hammer horror film with an odd sense of B-movie gore and slap-stick type black comedy. That's probably the best way to describe the film. It's very, very...

It’s in English (a first for director Michael Haneke), with a couple of well-known leads (both, curiously, non-Americans playing American characters) and some token, cosmetic changes to acknowledge the ten years that have passed since the original…but this almost...

I don't know if I'm getting cranky cause I'm nearing thirty, or maybe it the fact that when the filmmakers of this film cast a AVN award winning porn star in this film that I at least expected to see at least more porn action in this film then I expected. In fact if...

Director Adam Green is probably best known for his sophomore effort Hatchet. Billed as “Old School American Horror”; the film received over the top praise as being the next big thing horror had to offer. Personally I couldn’t disagree more, however although I found...

I find it kind of funny how next month a film titled 30 Days of Night, that is based on a graphic novel will be released theatrically has the same concept as this film; Frostbitten. Both films are the focus of a blood sucking feud that takes place when the sun don't...
