Outpost: Black Sun (2012) Fans of the first film may find this sequel a bit disappointing, as we're essentially given more action and mayhem at the cost of proper atmosphere, tension, and character/story development.... |
|
|
|
Asylum Blackout (2011) Asylum Blackout is a surprisingly decent watch, despite its minor flaws and unnecessarily ambiguous climax. There's enough atmosphere and tension here that should keep the viewer interested and... |
|
|
|
Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2006) Creative, informative, funny, and smart; the film shows how a little low-budget mockumentary can succeed where big-budget genre films failed. Behind the Mask is an interesting and comedic look behind... |
|
|
|
Botched (2007) A fun, over-the-top and gore-filled horror comedy that not only has comedic elements that works, but fun characters that you can root for as well. Worth a look. |
|
|
|
The Cabin in the Woods (2011) Cabin in the Woods is pretty much every horror fan's wet dream, as it gives us a little bit of everything and manages to deliver something fun and creative in the process. It's a multi-... |
|
|
|
Creep (2004) A good watch that should please horror fans as it did me. Don't expect a lot of story, but do expect some cool gory deaths. Recommended. |
|
|
|
Rejuvinator (1988) Yet another cheesy unheard-of 80's horror film that will probably remain that way, as it doesn't really offer anything significant to the genre. However, the effects were decent, and the... |
|
|
|
1408 (2007) One of the best book-to-film adaptations from a story by Stephen King. I personally didn't find it scary, but it was interesting and original, which kept me glued in the entire running time.... |
|
|
|
Tamara (2005) Unoriginal, but does offer interesting deaths, but sadly, the deaths are the only thing remotely decent about the film. Also, don't expect a lot of gore like I did. Basically if you watch this,... |
|
|
|
The Burrowers (2008) A decent straight-to-DVD flick. Although the premise isn't the most original, the execution and setting make it interesting. Slow-paced and relying mostly on mood and a foreboding atmosphere,... |
|
|
|
Grotesque (1988) The film had potential, but mostly falls flat due to the poor directing and script, which is all over the place, especially with the characters which were either empty or annoying. However, the movie... |
|
|
|
The Awakening (1980) As far as mummy movies go this is a stinker -- we don't even get an actual mummy! Instead we're treated to a lot of mysterious (but cool) deaths. Check it if you're lookin' for... |
|
|
|
The Vineyard (1989) The Vineyard is far from a good film, in fact, it's a pretty shitty film. But horrible acting, plot-holes, and sheer randomness-aside, I had fun watching it. 80's cheese at its best here... |
|
|
|
Urban Explorer (2011) Urban Explorer is a pretty standard genre flick that doesn't really break any new ground, especially for films within the particular theme of outsiders mixing it up with locals. Though, it does... |
|
|
|
Intruders (2011) Intruders is a dull and clichéd horror entry that attempts to be much smarter than it actually is. Had it not been for the talented cast and director things could've been much worse off. However... |
|
|
|
Grave Encounters (2011) Grave Encounters is a pretty decent film while it retained its realism, but loses its edge once it became just another standard found footage film. There are a couple creepy moments, but unless CG... |
|
|
|
Rosewood Lane (2011) Rosewood Lane is better suited as a Lifetime Movie Network premiere, as it features no nudity, language, gore, and even displays little violence until towards the end. Topped with plot-holes and... |
|
|
|
ATM (2012) ATM is every bit as you'd expect it to be when you center a movie around just a few characters in a small confined space. We're given all sorts of illogical behavior to keep these leads in... |
|
|
|
The Sleeper (2012) As an experiment in recreating the look and tone of the 80s slasher on a shoestring budget, The Sleeper rocks it. As a stand-alone story, it leaves a lot to be desired. If you’re a slasher fanboy,... |
|
|
|
Chronicle (2012) Chronicle is a fun and interesting look at what would happen if a few teens became superhuman. Seen through the eyes of several different cameras, the flick details their rise and fall thanks to the... |
|
|
|
The Woman in Black (2012) The Woman in Black is essentially the return of the good old fashioned ghost tale, delivering a lot of great atmosphere and loads of really creepy scenes. Unfortunately, there are some pacing issues... |
|
|
|
The Divide (2011) Maybe it’s because I knew nothing about the movie, and it played out differently than I was expecting, but I just loved The Divide. It’s tense, violent, borderline sick, and all around entertaining.... |
|
|
|
The Grey (2012) The Grey is a multi-layered survival pic that really puts you right in with the group and offers some tense scenes and incredibly menacing foes. The slow and moody atmosphere may deter some people... |
|
|
|
Underworld: Awakening (2012) Underworld: Awakening is essentially just a non-stop adrenaline-fueled action pic from start to finish. Filled with loads of gore, great action sequences, an uber-Lycan, and a hot Kate Beckinsale in... |
|
|
|
The Last Lovecraft: Relic Of Cthulhu (2009) A victim of its limited budget, The Last Lovecraft is a decent, but ultimately disappointing horror-comedy. Lovecraft aficionados will likely find this amusing, while others (like me) will be... |
|
|
|
The Devil Inside (2012) “The Devil Inside” is a lazy, uncreative cash-in on the popular “found footage” gimmick. The plot (and most of the performances for that matter) is all over the place, when it should have just picked... |
|
|
|
Zombie High (1987) With its incredibly slow pacing and uninteresting storyline, Zombie High offers very little in the form of entertainment. Aside from a young Virginia Madsen, there really is no reason to watch this,... |
|
|
|
Sector 7 (2011) Sector 7 is yet another failed attempt at recreating the success of The Host, and instead, giving us a SyFy-esque creature feature in terms of story and effects. Despite all that, the movie kept my... |
|
|
|
The Innkeepers (2011) While West's House of the Devil was so dreadfully slow to the point of almost being unbearable, this slow-burning effort was a at least entertaining enough to keep me watching thanks to its fun... |
|
|
|
Black Christmas (2006) Yet another pointless remake that's nothing more than a bunch of pretty girls getting killed. Instead of wasting time and money on this watch the original instead. |
|
|
|
To All a Goodnight (1980) Slightly better than the other killer-Santa flicks, which isn't saying much. There are decent deaths, followed by an interesting climatic twist, which makes it watchable. Sadly, the horrible... |
|
|
|
Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984) One of the better Santa flicks, but a bit slow and boring in parts. Regardless, it's still a decent rent for an 80's holiday slasher. |
|
|
|
Don't Open Till Christmas (1984) A bad movie, but not an entire waste of time. It's predictable, cliché, poorly scripted, and horribly-edited, but at least it offered a decent amount of blood and a variety of deaths. As far as... |
|
|
|
Hostel: Part III (2011) This is simply a poor excuse of a Hostel movie. The deaths were unimaginative and tame, there's barely any gore at all, and the ending is just completely ridiculous. Aside from the fact that it... |
|
|
|
Screamtime (1986) Screamtime proved to be a rather boring UK horror anthology, despite offering a few somewhat creative nightmarish tales. The outcomes for the stories (though I'm sure were fresh during the time... |
|
|
|
Chillerama (2011) Chillerama is an interesting and somewhat successful attempt at bringing back the old school look and feel of the cheesy drive-in movie. But the anthology itself is regrettably made up of one bad... |
|
|
|
The Thing (2011) Despite its many faults and not being as smart or as creepy as Carpenter's movie, this prequel still managed to be a fairly entertaining watch. Just be sure to leave your brain at the door and... |
|
|
|
Shark Night 3D (2011) As ridiculous as the film was, it at least remained an interesting watch during my viewing experience and it didn't hurt that we got to watch the lovely Sara Paxton run around in a tight little... |
|
|
|
Home For the Holidays (1972) This was decent mystery-thriller that, sadly, didn't age very well. The killer is easily guessed, the acting is overly-dramatic, and the quick-zoomed shots and pointless awkward stares are... |
|
|
|
11-11-11 (2011) This is a film that relies less on gore or scares and more on a slow build-up of its story to a dark and hopefully surprising climax. Unfortunately, it's a long dull road getting there and its... |
|
|
|
Making Contact (1985) Making Contact could've been a highly enjoyable watch had it not been so reliant on the success of other similarly-themed flicks. Instead of attempting to deliver any sort of originality, they... |
|
|
|
Red State (2011) Red State is a decent effort and although it isn't necessary a horror movie, it does have some horrific elements. A couple outstanding performances and a series of unconventional actions make... |
|
|
|
Paranormal Activity 3 (2011) The latest entry in the soon to be never ending franchise is just more of the same; filled with typical haunted house clichés, and an identical structure to its two predecessors. However, some of the... |
|
|
|
Cry Baby Lane (2000) Ultimately, Cry Baby Lane is nothing more than a simple, but amusing children's ghost tale. It doesn't try to break any new ground for the genre, but at the same time offers an interesting... |
|
|
|
The Falling (1987) The Falling is a cheesy 80's flick that would've been a fun ride had the filmmakers not been so scared to show more action on-screen. The "alien predator" isn't much of a... |
|
|
|
Spellcaster (1992) Spellcaster is not a good movie, but it's not entirely a bad one either. I wasn't bored and even found its cheesiness fun at times. If you're a fan of Full Moon's early works or... |
|
|
|
The Pack (2010) The Pack is a decent flick that attempts to modify a tired sub-genre and although it stumbles along the way due to some pacing issues, comes out above your normal effort. It's a mixed bag for me... |
|
|
|
Hellraiser: Revelations (2011) This installment is a complete disgrace to the Hellraiser name and an abomination that I'd like to soon forget. The film is boring, the acting and dialogue is bad, the story is terrible, and the... |
|
|
|
Hisss (2010) If the filmmakers set out to make a shitty movie then they most certainly succeeded with Hisss. This is a flick that fails in all aspects, and proved to be one of the worst modern horror films I... |
|
|
|
Evil Lives (1992) Don't waste your time with this movie. The plot sucks and it's not even that interesting. |
