But watching The Carmichael Manor at home alone on a stormy night with the wind whistling down my chimney and the front door creaking, well, congrats Cognetti...you got me. Review
What makes Parachute stand out from similar narratives is that rather than posing the question of whether two people who clearly love one another will get together, it asks whether they should get together. Review
This film is all about its human characters, and how wonderfully human they are. Review
We're left to wish we could see the unmade film that exists between the two images. Review
Paradise is Burning is a nostalgic treat for anyone who fondly recalls the childhood joy of breaking adult rules. Review
Both approaches are interesting in their own right, though the Danish version will likely prove the more relatable for female viewers of Anne's vintage. Review
Even for an atheist like myself Pandemonium is a deeply upsetting watch. While it's one of the most thematically dark films I've seen in some time, Pandemonium also boasts humour of the blackest kind. Review
On a technical level The Wait is an impressive undertaking all round. The acting, especially by Clavijo, is beguiling, and GutiƩrrez and cinematographer Miguel A. Mora make great use of the lonely expanse of the Andalusian countryside to cement their protagonist's emotional and physical isolation. But it's mostly hitting beats we've seen before in countless segments of horror anthologies... Review
A few more passes at the script might have consolidated Alone Together into a more convincing supernatural thriller, but in its current form it's a frustrating misfire. Review
Said monster is an impressive creation, either stop-motion or a convincing digital approximation of such. But it's also a little too goofy for a movie that takes itself as seriously as The Deep Dark, and would look more at home if it was battling Bruce Campbell rather than a group of acclaimed French thespians. Review
For a film that sets up so many possibilities as to why Alice has found herself in this scenario, the ending here feels almost insulting to the viewer's investment over the previous 90 minutes. Review
You may find yourself mouthing the words "well, that's weird" at regular intervals throughout My Mother's Eyes, but there isn't much food for thought. Review
By the end you're not entirely sure what you've just watched, but you know it was a movie that was both unique in its vision while betrothed to genre fare of the past. Review
The whole thing feels like an obligatory effort to wring some more money out of a dying franchise, and it's only the occasional clever cenobite design that offers anything new of note to the film. Review
With some striking cinematography by Gerry Lively and the sort of inventive production design the series had become known for at this point, Hellraiser III is a reminder of how great mainstream horror movies looked before the blandness of Scream and its teen horror clones took over in the second half of the '90s. Review
While it's never remotely as gripping as its predecessor, Hellbound captivates as a relic of a time when special effects artists were rock stars in the pages of Fangoria, and it makes today's mainstream horrors of the Waniverse and Blumhouse stable seem entirely devoid of imagination by comparison. Review
For the most part, Hellraiser is a gritty, kitchen sink thriller with a very British aesthetic. Review
If the dynamic between the two characters never quite works as effectively as the film would like, the blame can't be levelled at Rock or Cowan. Both are excellent in their roles. Review
Any film that revolves around a single character will ultimately succeed or fail on the strength of the performer occupying that role. Sullivan is magnificent as The Interviewer, evolving from cocksure and confident to paranoid, nervous wreck as the mystery overwhelms her and seems intent on wrapping her up in its enigmatic tentacles. Review
But while the writing is rough around the edges (some of this may be down to translation), Tejpal's filmmaking is tense and enthralling. It's not always a smooth blend, but Stolen is a rare movie that combines righteous social rage with exhilarating thrills. Review
Most of us demand such things as story, plot, character, suspense etc from our horror movies. Review
This Halloween howler is definitely more trick than treat. Review
Stahl brilliantly conveys this duality, swapping back and forth between sweaty desperation and professional pride. Review
