The Barge People Review
I’ve just got back from a nice little, much needed family vacation a couple of days ago. Rather than wait too long, I’ve decided to jump right back into my normal routine, and give another new horror flick a go. This time, it is one that I’ve been excited about, Charlie Steeds’ 2018 effort, The Barge People. The Plot A group consisting of sisters Kat and Sophie and their boyfriends, Mark and Ben, set off on what is to be a relaxing and peaceful weekend getaway along the glorious British countryside. After a run in with some trouble, the group … Read More

Darlin' Review
There are quite a few films in the horror genre that are touted as being some of the best that I simply just do not enjoy. It is rare that I revisit these films to ever give them a second chance, but it is a different story entirely when said films receive a direct sequel. I was more than ready to give Pollyanna McIntosh a fighting chance to redeem what Lucky McKee had failed to do for me years ago, with her new film Darlin’. The Plot Found at a Catholic hospital filthy and ferocious, feral teenager Darlin’ is whisked … Read More

Macabre Review
After a recent re-introduction to the work of Timo Tjahjanto and Kimo Stamboel, I’ve made it a personal mission to watch everything in their filmography which I’ve missed over the years. My latest viewing was actually of their first feature film. I’m talking, of course, about 2009’s Macabre. The Plot A group of friends are on their way home to Jakarta when they see a poor girl out in the rain who claims to have just been robbed. After kindly returning her home, they are invited in for a warm meal. Little do they know that the meal has been … Read More

Death Line Review
When I started reviewing horror films, years ago, I never imagined the myriad of obscure films that would be getting the Blu-ray (and sometimes 4K) re-mastered treatment. Films that were originally extremely hard to hunt down are now being delivered in stunning fashion. One of the latest that has followed this trend is Gary Sherman’s 1972 film, Death Line. When a couple stumbles upon an unconscious man in the London subway system, they inform the nearest constable. Upon returning to where the man was last seen, they learn that he has vanished. Due to the man’s high social stature, this … Read More
That is Not a Handsome Horse
Bone Tomahawk Review
Every once in a while, a genre film is released that causes a commotion amongst loyal fans who keep a close eye to what is going on in the scene. These films are usually talked about in length as soon as they are announced, generally during pre-production or even before. On rare occasion, however, a film is released, seemingly out of nowhere, that causes an even larger stir because, well, it was completely unexpected. The latest film to fall into this category is S. Craig Zahler’s incredibly entertaining horror western hybrid, Bone Tomahawk. Locals have been kidnapped from the small … Read More

The Green Inferno Review
In the horror community Eli Roth’s reputation seems to be split almost 50/50; Some absolutely love his work, while others despise everything he touches. I personally happen to think that he is a fantastic director with some amazingly shocking films. His newest film, The Green Inferno has been on hardcore horror fans radar for nearly two years. We all eagerly awaited its release last year, only to watch it get pulled from distribution. With its fate uncertain, many of us gave up hope. Some searched for bootlegs or purchased the overseas release. I knew a day would come that it’d … Read More
