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


The Gorgon (1964)
Solid mid-60s effort from Hammer is one of their best standalone horror films.
May 31, 2024


Night of the Big Heat (1967)
Can an alien invasion be stopped by the legendary pairing of Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee?
May 30, 2024


The Mummy (1959)
The last of Hammer's initial "big three" horrors isn't as strong as the other two but is still a damned fine example of British horror.
Aug 21, 2023


House of the Long Shadows (1983)
The Expendables of horror, this well-intentioned horror film unites four legendary horror stars on-screen together for the first time.
Aug 5, 2023


Arabian Adventure (1979)
Feeble fantasy from Amicus with flying carpets, evil genies and a load of British actors pretending to be Arabian.
Aug 5, 2022


The Curse of the Crimson Altar (1968)
Boris Karloff. Christopher Lee. A witch looking for revenge on the descendant of the man who killed her. What could go wrong?
Aug 4, 2022


To the Devil a Daughter (1976)
Hammer's final theatrical horror film in it's original production run is its most shocking and depraved outing yet!
Jul 24, 2022


Scream and Scream Again (1970)
Cushing. Lee. Price. All together in the same film for the first time? You can't go wrong, can you?
Apr 5, 2022


Tale of the Mummy (1998)
Flawed if not entirely watchable mummy flick which got massively overshadowed by Brendan Fraser's big budget extravaganza.
