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




Dracula Has Risen from the Grave (1968)
Another standard issue Hammer Dracula horror with Christopher Lee in his trademark role.
Aug 9


Dracula, Prince of Darkness (1966)
Christopher Lee returns to his most famous role in the third Hammer Dracula film.
Aug 9


Scars of Dracula (1970)
Sixth Hammer outing for Dracula and this one is really showing the signs of franchise burn out.
Aug 4


Dracula A.D. 1972 (1972)
Dracula meets Austin Powers in ludicrously dated Hammer horror which moved its classic Gothic tale into an era of go-go boots, funky music and flannel shirts.
Aug 4


Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970)
Fifth instalment in Hammer's Dracula series is argubaly the most routine of the lot.
Aug 2


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.
Jul 29


Horror Express (1972)
Peter Cushing. Christopher Lee. A brain-sucking Yeti. And stuck on board the Trans-Siberian Express no less!
Jul 27


The Gorgon (1964)
Solid mid-60s effort from Hammer is one of their best standalone horror films.
