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

Masters of Horror: Incident On and Off a Mountain Road (2005)

The first episode from the horror TV show Masters of Horror is a decent opener which promises good things from the rest of the series.

Manticore (2005)

US soldiers on a rescue mission in Iraq during the War on Terror fight a mythical creature in drab Sy Fy monster movie.

Lesbian Vampire Killers (2009)

So-so British comedy horror which wants to be the next Shaun of the Dead and relies on its name and novelty value to see it through.

Megalodon (2002)

Long before Jason Statham made giant prehistoric sharks cool, there came Megalodon.

New Alcatraz (2001)

Escape from New York meets Anaconda in this low budget formulaic snake flick.

Cherry Falls (2000)

Generic teen slasher with a slightly post-modern twist in the tale - only virgins need to worry about this killer!

Octopus 2: River of Fear (2001)

Shamelessly terrible sequel with a giant rubbery octopus attacking New York.

One-Eyed Monster (2008)

"Want to know what the hell it sounded like? I think it sounded like... 30 men getting massacred by a dick." If that doesn't sell the film..

Scarecrow Slayer (2003)

Unwanted and unrelated sequel to a terrible slasher film which makes the same mistakes.
