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


Xtro (1982)
British made sci-fi schlock classic isn't a great film by any stretch of the imagination but it's memorable for the right, and wrong, reasons.

Howling IV: The Original Nightmare (1988)
The series continues to get worse. It's hard to think of a franchise which had a harder fall from grace than The Howling and this is the epitome of it.

Howling III (1987)
Third film in this series and you wonder just how bad things are going to get.

Star Crystal (1986)
Micro budget 1980s Alien clone takes an unexpected turn two-thirds of the way through.

Q, The Winged Serpent (1982)
Giant pterodactyl-like Aztec god descends on New York in this memorable albeit plodding 80s monster movie.

Psycho II (1983)
One of the most underrated sequels of all time. It's only problem is that it isn't the original.

Silent Night, Deadly Night (1984)
The ultimate Santa slasher caused quite a stir when it was released in 1984.
Aug 1, 2025


The Burning (1981)
One of the slasher genre's best 80s offerings features some gruesome effects and is genuinely unsettling.
