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


Howling II (1985)
A terrible sequel which is so terrible that it becomes superb. Christopher Lee said it was the worst film he ever starred in.

Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers (1989)
Quick cash-in on the success of the fourth part is symptomatic of everything the series would begin to do wrong going forward.
Jul 26, 2025


Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988)
Michael Myers returns after being awol from the second sequel in this solid follow-up.
Jul 26, 2025


A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989)
The worst sequel in the franchise is a mess of crass self-awareness, dated pop culture swagger and some ideas which never should have been given the greenlight.
Jul 25, 2025


A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988)
Third sequel of the franchise is where things started to get silly.
Jul 25, 2025


Birds of Prey (1987)
Exploitation version of Hitchcock's The Birds is every bit as trashy and low rent as you'd expect it to be.
Jul 25, 2025


Sleepaway Camp (1983)
One of the 80s most infamous slashers with an unforgettable shocker of an ending.
Jul 23, 2025


The Great White (1981)
The most blatant Jaws knock-off ever made - the film Universal tried to ban back in the day - is so bad, it's good.
Jul 23, 2025


The Prowler (1981)
One of the memorable slashers of the golden year of 1981, The Prowler isn't as good as you'd hope it to be despite Tom Savini's gruesome effects.
