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

A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)

"1, 2, Freddy's coming for you" And thus was born one of cinema's most influential and downright chilling horror films.

The Zombie Dead (1981)

One of the best entries in the Italian zombie cycle of the late 70s and 80s, this has everything from decapitations to creepy 'kids'.

Invasion Earth: The Aliens Are Here (1988)

Aliens try to conquer Earth by hijacking a cinema and showing old 50s sci-fi movies to hypnotise the audience.

Death Ship (1980)

Would you hop on board a Nazi torture vessel if it meant you weren't spending weeks adrift at sea?

New Year's Evil (1980)

Halloween. Valentine's Day. Mother's Day. Prom nights. Graduations. Can't anyone celebrate a special occasion without a psycho ruining it?

Girls Nite Out (1982)

Slasher from the early 80s... Girls Nite Out virtually writes itself. Apart from the killer wearing a bear costume.

Maniac (1980)

One of the grottiest, most disturbing horror films to come out of the 80s, Maniac is an undisputed classic.

Student Bodies (1981)

The first slasher spoof? Watch the trailer for the best bits and save yourself the hassle!

The Terror Within (1989)

Creature stalks and kills humans inside a confined space. From the Alien handbook of sci-fi horror.
