Horror Movie Reviews : Movies beginning with S

If you have ever wondered what the most depraved, sadistic, cruel and disturbing movie available to the general public is then you should maybe get yourself a copy of Salò or 120 Days of Sodom (Salò o le 120 giornate di Sodoma). Salo is an extreme Italian movie directed by Pier Paolo Pasolini and inflicted on the public in 1975. Not really a horror... Click to read more "Salo, or the 120 days of Sodom"

Samurai Princess (Samurai purinsesu: Gedô-hime)

A New Samurai Is Born

Sticking with what seems to be this month's theme of excessively gory Asian horror movies; the biscuit is awarded to and allowed to be taken away by Samurai Princess (Samurai purinsesu: Gedô-hime). Possibly the goriest Japanese cyberpunk splatterfest to grace my DVD player with more severed body parts than Jeffery Dahmer's dinner parties and more v...

Satanico Pandemonium

From Bride of Christ to Slave of Satan

Posted on 05 June 2010 by

Hellbound Heart

Distribution company Mondo Macabro are eminently reliable purveyors of lurid, rare world cinema and - praise the Lord - Mexican flick Satanico Pandemonium (AKA La Sexorcista) is no exception. All the ingredients for a one-off viewing experience are there: nuns both clothed and unclothed, blood, lesbianism, oh, and a guest appearance by Old Scratch ...

Scarecrow Gone Wild

He's the death of the party!

Posted on 14 September 2008 by

Pazuzu Iscariot

I try to see the good aspects of every horror movie I review as usually I see an element of quality in most horror productions. With that philosophy in mind Scarecrow Gone Wild is going to be an exceptionally challenging review! This movie follows all of the rules of a typical slasher and, although a lot of slasher movies follow the basic rules the... Click to read more "Scarecrow Gone Wild"

Schramm

...today I am dirty, but tomorrow I'll be just dirt.

Pazuzu Iscariot

Anyone familiar with the work of Jörg Buttgereit (notably Nekromantik and Nekromantik 2) will know not to expect a straightforward or even coherent story from Schramm. Buttergereit relies on abstract concepts, shock visuals and often penises to convey a mood rather than presenting a story from A to B. It is a squint into the mind of a killer as his...

Seed

Yeah... It's Uwe Boll, but give it a chance

Posted on 14 January 2010 by

Pazuzu Iscariot

Having heard nothing but condemnation for the work of Uwe Boll and being uninitiated in his perception of art, Seed was quite an unpleasantly shocking yet pleasantly disturbing surprise. There is no doubt that this movie was created just to inspire media hysteria and if the media cared about the work of Uwe Boll it is a certainty that there would h... Click to read more "Seed"

Severance

Another Bloody Office Outing

Posted on 29 August 2009 by

Pazuzu Iscariot

Severance is an effective British comedy-slasher with a star studded cast of British actors providing a typical wit dryer than a vagina in a nunnery. The movie provides a balance of humor and violence managing to extract absurdity from some disturbing situations inspiring simultaneous cringing and mirth. The gore is plentiful but realistic enough t... Click to read more "Severance"

The Sexual Story of O

Eurotica from the master of sleaze

Posted on 24 May 2010 by

Hellbound Heart

Although Uncle Jess is perhaps better known for his 1970s sleaze/horror offerings - particularly the eponymous Vampyros Lesbos (1971) - he carried on regardless throughout the 1980s, and as a matter of fact he's still at it. His most recent film - Paula-Paula (2010) - has just been completed, bringing his grand total up to nearly 200 films, and sti... Click to read more "The Sexual Story of O"

Shogun Assassin

Lone wolf and son. The greatest team in the history of mass slaughter.

Posted on 18 June 2008 by

Pazuzu Iscariot

It's not usual that a Samurai movie would be reviewed on this site but Shogun Assassin (known in Japan as Kozure Okami) is here for two reasons. Number one is that this movie almost made the notorious Video Nasty list in the UK and number two is the plentiful amount of blood and violence. One of the movie's taglines is "It's impossible to keep a bo... Click to read more "Shogun Assassin"

Shogun's Sadism

You will soon forget your god and cling to me like a bitch!

Posted on 15 December 2011 by

Hellbound Heart

The popularity of so many modern Japanese horror movies over the last ten years has no doubt generally piqued Western curiosity about the country's cinematic legacy: its more recent gory movies didn't emerge out of a vacuum, that's for sure, and it's getting easier to track down earlier works which show us this much, such as Shogun's Sadism (The Jo...
