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

Late Hammer horror which is one of their strongest vampire films, if not one of their best overall.

The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb (1964)
Hammer made virtually a remake of The Mummy, only without any of the things that made one that such a classic.

The Mummy (1959)
The last of Hammer's initial "big three" horrors isn't as strong as the other two but is still a damned fine example of British horror.

The Monster Club (1981)

The Curse of the Werewolf (1961)
Hammer's sole venture in werewolf territory is only saved by a brilliant debut performance by Oliver Reed.
Aug 20, 2023


House of the Long Shadows (1983)
The Expendables of horror, this well-intentioned horror film unites four legendary horror stars on-screen together for the first time.
