Blu-ray Review: Malignant
After switching gears and directing the comic book movie Aquaman, Warner Bros. has allowed James Wan to return to his low-budget horror movie roots with Malignant, an absolutely gnarly little film that I’m honestly impressed the studio even agreed to put out. Wan, who has kickstarted no less […]

Dead Silence
There doesn’t seem to be much love in the world for killer doll movie Dead Silence. The film-makers (Leigh Whannell, James Wan) went on to bigger and better things, and disowned this early effort as mangled by studio interference, but while the creative forces may not have been satisfied with the end product, Dead Silence […]

Malignant
Yikes! One of the unexpected fallers in 2021’s race for the drastically reduced box-office prizes on offer was James Wan’s return to the horror territories that he’d previously made his own. After the promising Dead Silence, the Insidious and Conjuring movies made Wan a brand, even if both franchises fizzled out in terms of appeal. […]

Last Night in Soho is an Overwhelming Experience
Cass is here with a review of the latest Edgar Wright film.
Last Night in Soho is an Overwhelming Experience
Last Night in Soho (2021)
I need to show my cards here – I am a huge Edgar Wright fan. I have been ever since I have seen Shaun of the Dead (2004). I have learned a lot about him, mainly the fact, he’s an avid cinephile. I would imagine he’s the only one who comes anywhere near Quentin Tarantino and/or Martin Scorsese regarding the film knowledge, the […]

“Last Night in Soho” (2021)
With so many films coming out this year, we never know which one is good and which one will disappoint us. In certain cases, it hurts when you anticipate bigger but get less than that. Because the director either fails to convey the message, actors were not in sync, […]

Hwang Dong-hyuk’s social thriller Squid Game is thrillingly macabre and engagingly poignant.

MIDNIGHT MASS
When it comes to masterpieces of modern horror, Mike Flanagan’s track record is like no other. From films like Gerald’s Game (2017) and Doctor Sleep (2019) to shows such as The Haunting of Hill House (2018) and The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020), the man has proven time and time again that he’s one of […]
MIDNIGHT MASS is a thought-provoking, harrowing and ambitious religious horror spectacle!
Reminiscence
Why are sci-fi/private detectives are such a common breed? Sure, Blade Runner and its sequel made a nice job of updating Hammett and Chandler to the 21st century but both films flopped hard on release. Their cult status, however, seems to ensure that there’s a steady stream of mob bosses presiding over augmented realities, film […]

Le Samouraï
I remember seeing a quote from one of my favourite directors, Jim Jarmusch. He is an inspiration of mine and there was an article with him released back in 2004. The article was about his golden rules of filmmaking. They included: Rule #1: There are no rules. There are as many ways to make a […]

The Isle is a stale melodrama
The Isle has wonderful scenery but a boring, unimaginative plot. The Isle is a 2018 movie about some shipwrecked sailors who get stranded on a strange island, filled with curious supernatural elements. These elements have divided the inhabitants of the island and made them afraid of a Strange Haunting ™. It’s marketed as a mythological […]

Fear Street Trilogy
With the release of this horror trilogy (directed by Leigh Janiak) and with the release of Nia DaCosta’s Candyman, Halloween Kills and Scream 5 on the horizon, it’s pretty fair to say slasher horror films are making a comeback. Back in the late 70s and 80s in the wake of the success films like Halloween […]

THE BOY BEHIND THE DOOR
