  • “Doppelganger” is an odd little Japanese film with a German name being released in America by a British company (Tartan Asia Extreme) whose founder has an Irish name (Hamish McAlpine. “Doppelganer” is just one of […]

  • Audience reaction is oftentimes a fantastic indicator of how successful a scary movie can be. “The Grudge” is very, very successful. The audience this evening was screaming in fear at least once or twice ever […]

  • ThumbnailWhere have you gone, George Romero, as a nation turns its gory eyes to
    you? Woo hoo hoo? “Resident Evil 2″ has the fortune/misfortune to be
    released during what has been dubbed Mega Zombie Love-Fest Weekend […]

  • ThumbnailA sticking point with horror fanatics is that many people take it too
    far, tainting the good name of those of us that just like gore and
    disembowelment on film. Serial Killers tend to fascinate us, and put […]

  • ThumbnailThe Creeper gives a thumbs-up to one of his prospective victims,
    just so the guy knows he’s going to get killed. I’m not kidding.

    All of you who thought the second half of Victor
    Salva’s 2001 “Jeepers […]

  • ThumbnailOkay, so “The Order” is, without a doubt, the most absurd movie
    ever to cast Peter “Robocop” Weller as a foul-mouthed American
    Cardinal next in line for Pope. Director Brian Helgeland pillaged his
    entire “A […]

  • Thumbnail
    Experiencing “Cabin Fever” caused a realization that if Rob Zombie
    understands and appreciates the bloody, no-holds-barred quirkiness of
    ’70s grind-house gore-mongers, then Eli Roth is actually […]

  • ThumbnailMaverick director Mike Figgis must have had to make a car payment, or maybe stow some studio greenbacks away for his kids’ college fund. Far be it from me to criticize a solid indie filmmaker and Oscar darling who […]

  • ThumbnailBeauty is often a requisite in vampire films: Set in gothic castles in Eastern Europe, flowing capes and beautiful brides, the blood-drenched sets usually intricately designed, each drop meant to be awed as much […]

  • ThumbnailIn all honesty, “Scary Movie 3″ is not as bad as it looks. The
    question, of course, is was it funny? The answer: eh, sort of.
    Director David Zucker, taking over for the MIA Wayans Brothers, invented
    this […]

  • ThumbnailWhile you may have to swim the Bering Strait to see it (or, at least,
    find one of the scattered showings throughout New York), Terry R.
    Wickham’s Hair of the Dog shows promise of both its director […]

  • Thumbnail “Monster” is not exactly a horror movie, but a character piece
    on Aileen Wuornos, the most notorious female serial killer in U.S.
    history. The real Wuornos was a tragic and horrific figure, and […]

  • Thumbnail It’s truly heartbreaking to trash a low-budget horror film, as
    they’re so often made lovingly by people who really understand the
    genre. However, Light and Dark Productions “The Tenement,” directed […]

  • Thumbnail“The Butterfly Effect” is not really a horror movie, it’s made more for
    the 14-year-old Brittany Spears-loving teeny-boppers than those of us
    that consider George Romero more important than Orson Welles in […]

  • Thumbnail The real fun of “Broken Lizard’s Club Dread” is that it’s a
    horror spoof for people who enjoy horror films, not a mainstreamed
    mish-mash of pop-culture references and lame, only-funny-once sex […]

  • ThumbnailI can in good conscience say that “Secret Window” is not among the bottom rung of Steven King films reserved for the likes of “Maximum Overdrive” and “Sleepwalkers,” though if it weren’t for the game cast, it […]

  • Thumbnail“Hellboy,” Mike Mignola’s epic comic concoction of government
    conspiracy, the occult, Nazis, and a cigar chomping red protagonist
    spawned directly from the depths of moral depravity has long been
    considered one […]

  • ThumbnailThe hardest part of reviewing “Van Helsing” is deciding how many stars
    to give it because it looked good. The CGI was nothing special, but
    passable for the most part (save a fairly important […]

  • ThumbnailA film like “Ju-on: The Grudge,” will evoke such a specific,
    ingrained reaction from the viewer that it is troubling to attempt to
    pin down my own. The infamous Japanese chiller is a nearly plot-less
    ghost […]

  • ThumbnailM. Night Shyamalan has made a lot of money making what critics like to call thrillers and director Eli Roth correctly pointed out are horror movies. “The Sixth Sense” and “Signs” are high-end horror films, but […]
