Rating: 9/10 Attack the Block

The most surefire horror-comedy instant cult-classic since "Shaun of the Dead".

Rating: 8/10 Circus of Horrors

A wonderfully engrossing if not a tad messy film of attractions.

Rating: 6/10 Don't Be Afraid of the Dark

The Guillermo Del Toro-iest movie ever that wasn't directed by the man himself.

Rating: 3/10 Medium Raw

(Writer/Director) Andrew Cymek buries his axe in soft ground over and again before finally planting it squarely in his own foot.

Rating: 0/10 Manos: The Hands of Fate

Absolutely, without a doubt, the worst film ever made.

Rating: 4/10 Camp Hell (Camp Hope)

It's like "Jesus Camp" except with demons and Andrew McCarthy

Rating: 8/10 The Reef

... sometimes excellence of form is every bit as compelling as a fresh concept.

Rating: 2/10 The Task

What happens when you take that old MTV show "Fear" and remove everything that made that show memorable? You're left with this turd.

Rating: 5/10 Final Destination 5

Death's whirling blades, falling glass and loose wires are back in Final Destination 5.

Rating: 6/10 Zombie Girl

I am just another asshole with both an opinion and an anus and often one is issued forth from the other.

Rating: 8/10 "The Invisible Man"

James Whale has got some campy, pre-production code horror for you.

Rating: 7/10 Deathdream

...a very good horror film about America’s inability to cope with soldiers returning home from inhumane conditions.

Rating: 3/10 Quarantine 2: Terminal

Zombies on an airplane without the irony.

Posted 08/01/11 by Andy

Rating: 3/10 Video Violence

Believe it or not it is not the lack of a budget that keeps the film from being worth a watch.

Rating: 7/10 Puppet Master

Killer puppets and inept psychics. Yep, must be a direct to video '80's film.

Rating: 8/10 Frailty

The first truly post 9/11 American horror film.

Rating: 3/10 I Spit on Your Grave (2010)

Why? Why remake a flashpoint film and have virtually nothing new to say about, or add to the original concept?

Rating: 9/10 Eyes Without a Face (Les yeux sans visage)

The film pushes us not with the long, lingering shots of gore (though that certainly helps things along) but by denying us the excuse of seeing the antagonists as evil.

Rating: 2/10 George A. Romero Presents Deadtime Stories Volume 1

As Romero himself admits at the end of the movie, “Hmm, that didn’t work out very well, did it?”

Rating: 4/10 Sweet Karma

Ms. Bechard is currently racing up the volatile Maxim, FHM, and GQ hot charts due to her status as the newly selected girlfriend of 84 year old Hugh Hefner.

Rating: 4/10 Dr. Terror's House of Horrors

How is it you've never heard of an anthology horror film with Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Donald Sutherland? Because it's not very good.

Rating: 8/10 Troll Hunter

“Troll Hunter” takes a trope that’s getting long in the tooth and reinvigorates the concept with a monster outside the typical horror pantheon and a healthy dose of dry humor.

Rating: 8/10 The Frighteners

Peter Jackson, ghosts, and Jeffery Combs as "an asshole...with an uzi!"

Rating: 7/10 The War Game

...perhaps the most fascinating and unique aspect of this Oscar winning documentary is that it is not a documentary.

Rating: 6/10 Noroi: The Curse

If you can make it through the painful first hour, "Noroi: The Curse" is an original, genuinely creepy offering from Japan

Posted 07/07/11 by Angelo B

Rating: 5/10 Creep

"Creep" is a film interested in empathy. It's just not sure what it wants to say about it.
