You have to give credit where credit's due, so fair play to Troma Entertainment: they have been trolling the mainstream Hollywood model for an impressive 35 years now. Whatever industry values, or suggested budgets, or base-line values of any kind mainstream cinema has tried to instill, Troma have been right there – quick to show that not only do ...

The Devil's Rejects (2005)

Hell doesn't want them. Hell doesn't need them. Hell doesn't love them. This world rejects them.

The Devil's Rejects is Rob Zombie's follow up to House of 1000 Corpses and was nearly called House of 2000 Corpses. Once again this horror master has created a masterpiece which, although a sequel to Corpses, is a very different movie. The bad guys from the first movie are back, Baby Firefly (Sheri Moon Zombie), Otis B. Driftwood (Bill Moseley) and... Click to read more "The Devil's Rejects"

The Eye 10 (Gin Gwai 10) (2005)

When seeing is never believing.

Some so called film critics may regret having been so harsh on The Eye 2 after having seen The Eye 10 (Gin gwai 10). This movie is actually the third film in the "The Eye" series and is known as The Eye 3 in some parts of the world as well as The Eye: Infinity in other parts. It isn't officially known as The Third Eye in any parts of the world whic... Click to read more "The Eye 10 (Gin Gwai 10)"

The Gingerdead Man (2005)

Out of the oven... and into your heart!

Charles Band's 2005 horror comedy, The Gingerdead Man, is a very typical, very insincere slasher with the bad guy quite literally falling out of the slasher flick cookie-cutter. From the offset it becomes obvious that this movie is not going to take itself seriously, the story is almost instantly ridiculous, the characters are quite exaggerated and...

Haze (2005)

An intense exercise in basic fear and dread.

Posted on 03 October 2010 by

Pazuzu Iscariot

Director of Tetsuo, Shinya Tsukamoto, takes a diversion from body horror with Haze and instead attacks the consciousness with the concept of isolation and confined space horror and ups it to a level that makes The Descent seem like a quiet holiday retreat commercial for claustrophobics. Combine this with the maze like uncertainty delivered by Cube ... Click to read more "Haze"

Id (Ido) (2005)

Take a peek into the realm of unconscious.

When you can't really understand what the cover blurb is saying to you, then you know you're in for an "interesting" experience with a movie, and - credit where credit's due - Id (2005) is an interesting experience alright. The problem here is trying to overlay a conventional review on a film which is anything but conventional. From the earliest sc... Click to read more "Id (Ido)"

The Maid (Kimyo na sakasu) (2005)

Supernatural horror from Singapore.

Kelvin Tong's The Maid (Kimyo na sakasu) is a fairly typical J-Horror (despite being Singaporean) for the best part, but takes on a fairly disturbing twist as the story closes. Relying on an eerie atmosphere and Singaporean superstitions rather than an abundance of guts, The Maid manages to create a more disturbing and dark feel than is usual withi...

Meatball Machine (2005)

Psycho cyborgs from Japan.

Posted on 17 May 2008 by

From the opening scene Meatball Machine bombards the viewer with over the top violence, gore and brutality. The cover art is enough to inspire any Asian horror movie fan to want to see more. The story, although typically Manga craziness, is quite ingenious and typically horror movie style pointlessness (the type of pointlessness that appeals to the...

Noriko's Dinner Table (Noriko no shokutaku) (2005)

The family that eats together stays together.

Hellbound Heart

My first impression of Sion Sono's work came via the insanely creative Suicide Club, a film which revolved around the presence of an online cult which compelled its members to off themselves; Noriko's Dinner Table (Noriko no shokutaku), made four years later, fits around the time and events of the earlier film, most notably the mass suicide at Shin...

The Red Shoes (Bunhongsin) (2005)

One size kills all.

Posted on 20 February 2011 by

Pazuzu Iscariot

South Korean director Kim Yong-gyun manages to put atmospheric and creepy back into the Asian horror template with a sinister movie interpretation of Hans Christian Andersen's fairytale "The Red Shoes". Despite the story revolving around a pair of pink shoes (to which all characters refer to as red) the movie borrows heavily from the morbid childre... Click to read more "The Red Shoes (Bunhongsin)"
