Reviewing the best (and worst) of horror, sci-fi and fantasy since 2000


Feb 28
As Above, So Below (2014)
Atmospheric set-up quickly unravels in this found footage offering which is slightly better than most.




Feb 28
Warbirds (2008)
One of Sy Fy's worst creature features is just a dreadful waste of 85 minutes.

Feb 28
Mountaintop Motel Massacre (1983)
Crazy old motel owner wants to be the next Norman Bates in this dismal 80s slasher.


Feb 28
The Mummy's Curse (1944)
Fourth and final sequel to 1932's The Mummy is as unmemorable and plodding as the other entries.


Feb 28
Cheerleader Massacre (2003)
Exploitative slasher which forgets its a horror film and veers more into softcore nonsense.


Feb 28
Fear in the Night (1972)
One of Hammer's attempts to venture out into thrillers is an admirable if flawed side project from their Gothic classics.


Feb 15
Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983)
Decent but ultimately underwhelming big screen reboot of the classic TV show.


Feb 15
Zombie Strippers! (2008)
Zombies and strippers. Surely a winning formula for any self-respecting male horror fan?

Jan 2
Great White (2021)
Five people stranded on a life raft are terrorised by a great white shark in this drab horror-thriller.


Jan 2
Swim (2021)
Feels like someone at The Asylum watched Crawl and said "Yeah... but what about sharks instead?"


Nov 3, 2024
The Shallows (2016)
Blake Lively, a flimsy bikini and a great white shark. You just can't go wrong.


Nov 3, 2024
Son of Kong (1933)
Rushed sequel to the all-time classic goes for the child friendly approach and little of the titular beast.


Nov 2, 2024
The Devil's Men (1976)
Devil worshippers led by Peter Cushing are abducting tourists and only Donald Pleasance can stop them.


Nov 1, 2024
Day of the Dead (1985)
Grim and bleak, this is the ultimate post-apocalyptic masterpiece.
