There are two words that can instantly grab my attention: Nazis & Zombies. And if you have both of these things in one movie, you have my UNDIVIDED attention.There's one thing you need to know before you watch this movie - it doesn't take itself very seriously. If you're looking for some underlying ...

Whilst the whole concept of a banned list of video nasties may strike those of us who have lived through a glut of so-called "torture porn" movies as profoundly hysterical, you may still find yourself wondering how in the hell certain of the video nasties ever made the list. Night of the Bloody Apes...

With a copious amount of blood-painted axe murderousness at the hands of a young boy defending his naked lady jigsaw before the opening credits you almost guarantee Juan Piquer Simón's Pieces (Mil gritos tiene la noche) will get a positive review here. Throw in an abundance of bra-challenged eightie...

Lamberto Bava's directorial debut, Macabre (Macabro) AKA Frozen Terror, is a beautiful romance story about illicit love affairs, unrequited devotion, tragedy, child murder, child murderers, necrophilia, and blind people dropping the soap. It would be impossible to do this work of perverse sinister a...

A Japanese movie entitled Exte – Hair Extensions (Ekusute) will instantly conjure up uninspiring pictures of standard supernatural hair-ghosts creeping out whiney Asian girls in an attempt to exploit the trend of J-Horror breaking into the Western world. This could not be further from the truth. The...

It may well be maybe a possibly well know fact that when Lucio Fulci made non-zombie films he was out of his nut on various psychotropic drugs. A huge chunk of apparent evidence is in The Sweet House of Horrors (La dolce casa degli orrori). As the infamous master of gore, Fulci manages to take poten...

Initial glances of Tiwa Moeithaisong's bloodthirsty Thai shocker Meat Grinder (Cheuuat gaawn chim) makes you think you are watching Mrs. Lovett serving up Aunt Mei's Dumplings with enough monosodium glutamate to blind all beholders. On this level the movie works very well with plenty of vermillion s...

The metamorphosis of Freddy Krueger from nightmarishly intimidating boogeyman to ridiculous pussified cartoon character reaches its climax of juvenile and uninspiring humour with the sixth Elm Street; Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare.

I'm not even going to try and bullshit you: I love everything Freddy. EVERYTHING. Perhaps it's because he encompasses everything I am - evil & sadistic with a dark sense of humor. Or maybe it's because I like my villains with personality. I also grew up (I use that term loosely) on the Nightmare on ...
