Reviewing the best (and worst) of horror, sci-fi and fantasy since 2000


May 25, 2024
The Beast in the Cellar (1971)
Talky and overly dull British horror with the novelty factor of seeing a pair of well-known actresses ham it up in a horror.


Apr 7, 2024
Arena (1989)
Star Wars meets Rocky with a bit of WWE thrown in for good measure in this light-hearted 80s sci-fi action.


Apr 7, 2024
Arachnoquake (2012)
Pre-dating the gonzo named 'Sharknado' bandwagon by a year, Arachnoquake is slightly better than the usual middling Sy Fy efforts.


Apr 7, 2024
Berserker (1987)
Six people renting a cabin in the woods run afoul of a legendary viking warrior. Or is it a killer bear? No one cares in dismal slasher.


Apr 7, 2024
The Invisible Man Returns (1940)
Solid sequel features an unrelated Invisible Man trying to clear his name for a crime he didn't commit.


Apr 7, 2024
Leatherface (2017)
Another prequel/reboot of the franchise sees a teenage Leatherface escape from a mental hospital. Yawn.


Apr 7, 2024
The Vineyard (1989)
Absolute bonkers mess of 80s cheese with zombies, crazy Chinese magicians and a bit of torture.

Apr 6, 2024
Jigsaw (2002)
An art project comes to life and starts killing off the students who created it in this terrible low budget offering.


Apr 1, 2024
Gamera: The Giant Monster (1965)
Middling attempt to create a rival to Godzilla, which was successful enough to spawn a whole franchise. This is not great however!


Apr 1, 2024
Blue Demon (2004)
Genetically modified sharks escape into lagoon with expected consequences in this dreadful sharksploitation flick.


Apr 1, 2024
Ebirah, Horror of the Deep (1966)
Godzilla battles the giant crustacean Ebirah and a terrorist organisation called the Red Bamboo in one of the series' weakest films.


Mar 16, 2024
Killer Rats (2003)
Killer rats invade a dilapidated institution run by Ron Perlman in hokey low budget nonsense.


Feb 20, 2024
The Evil Beneath Loch Ness (2001)
Dull schlock about the world's most famous cryptid - no wonder the creature has remained elusive!


Feb 20, 2024
The Eden Formula (2006)
Sy Fy Original with cheesy dinosaur effects. What on earth was Tony Todd thinking here, aside from the $$$?


Feb 20, 2024
Night of the Demons (1988)
One of the ultimate Halloween party films, Night of the Demons is the epitome of the 80s.
