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


Aug 20, 2023
City of the Living Dead (1980)
The first of Lucio Fulci's unofficial Gates of Hell trilogy is a mind-bending mix of surreal imagery, visceral gore and utter nonsense.


Aug 20, 2023
Cherry Falls (2000)
Generic teen slasher with a slightly post-modern twist in the tale - only virgins need to worry about this killer!


Aug 18, 2023
Piranha (1995)
Unnecessary TV movie remake of Joe Dante's cult 1978 hit is still an ok watch, only if you haven't seen the original.


Aug 16, 2023
Orcs! (2011)
Silly film which is a bit of fun - I mean how can you take orcs in the real world seriously?


Aug 15, 2023
Octopus 2: River of Fear (2001)
Shamelessly terrible sequel with a giant rubbery octopus attacking New York.


Aug 15, 2023
One-Eyed Monster (2008)
"Want to know what the hell it sounded like? I think it sounded like... 30 men getting massacred by a dick." If that doesn't sell the film..


Aug 15, 2023
Scarecrow Slayer (2003)
Unwanted and unrelated sequel to a terrible slasher film which makes the same mistakes.


Aug 15, 2023
Dead Space (1991)
Unnecessary sci-fi horror remake of a cult hit which in itself was a rip-off of Alien.


Aug 14, 2023
One Million Years B.C. (1966)
Hammer. Stop motion effects by Ray Harryhausen. Raquel Welch in THAT bikini. Happy days.
