Neil Marshall’s British creature feature was a claustrophobic masterpiece that I still consider to be one of my favorite theatrical experiences, and as we near the film’s 10th anniversary, I wanted to take a

Movie Review: Wolves (2014)

Sight unseen, Wolves is already an intriguing beast, as it marks the directorial debut of a pretty big name in Hollywood. David Hayter, who also wrote the werewolf flick, has penned a handful of superhero movies in the past decade, including X-Men, X-Men 2 and Watchmen. A guy with some impressive credentials, to say the

Movie Review: The Atticus Institute (2015)

I often say that a horror movie need not reinvent the proverbial wheel to be effective, as sometimes all one needs to do is simply roll it well. That’s something last year’s standout possession movie, The Taking of Deborah Logan, very much did, and 2015 kicks off on a similar note with The Atticus Institute.

Creepshow Raw: The Web Series That Almost Was

It’s somewhat surprising that the Creepshow franchise didn’t go further than it did, as the 1982 film was a big time hit for Warner Bros – both critically and financially. A sequel to the EC Comics-inspired anthology followed in 1987, which similarly turned a respectable profit. In 2007, rights-holders Taurus Entertainment released a film called

A Closer Look at Jason Voorhees: Cannibal? Rapist?

It’s always exciting to discover things about your favorite movies that you had never noticed, despite watching them countless times.

We’re just about eight and a half months away from October, so you may be thinking that it’s a tad bit too early to start talking Halloween 2015. Nonsense, we say.

Movie Review: The Canal (2014)

There’s no 2014 horror film that was more critically acclaimed than The Babadook, which used tragedy-induced madness as the springboard for a truly effective horror story. It’s a shame that so few seem to have seen it, because The Canal does much the same thing, and is every bit as impressive as last year’s horror
