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


The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1958)
One of the best fantasy films ever made and my favourite film. Alwas has been and most likely always will.

Clash of the Titans (2010)
Big budget remake is all overblown bluster with little heart and soul.
Aug 1


Son of Kong (1933)
Rushed sequel to the all-time classic goes for the child friendly approach and little of the titular beast.
Nov 3, 2024


Arena (1989)
Star Wars meets Rocky with a bit of WWE thrown in for good measure in this light-hearted 80s sci-fi action.
Apr 7, 2024


Creatures the World Forgot (1971)
Hammer's final prehistoric outing is their worst - and despite the title, there's no dinosaurs!
Jan 6, 2024


Sinbad: The Fifth Voyage (2014)
Dismal throwback/homage to the classic stop motion animation fantasy films of Ray Harryhausen.
Oct 28, 2023


One Million Years B.C. (1966)
Hammer. Stop motion effects by Ray Harryhausen. Raquel Welch in THAT bikini. Happy days.

When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth (1970)
Caveman film with limited dialogue but plenty of dino action and top-heavy women to keep the interest levels high.
Aug 14, 2023


The Land Unknown (1957)
Explorers arrive in a lost world to find men-in-suits and photographically enlarged lizards. Decent if flawed timewaster.
