One of the films that always finds itself on the ‘what are the best horror films ever made’ lists is 2009’s Martyrs. from director Pascal Laugier and it 100% deserves to be there. I used to listen to a lot of horror focused podcasts and the topic would come up a lot ‘what horror films…

I’ve been a fan of John Carpenter’s for decades. Since I first saw Halloween in the early 80s, I knew that this guy would be a filmmaker who’s career I needed to follow, and follow it I did. Through the 80s and 90s I watched and rewatched John Carpenter films a LOT! I do have…
One of the best trilogies of recent years is definitely the Ti West X, Pearl, and MaXXXine. Whilst you can watch the films in any order, they do work really well as a trilogy. Definitely fitting in the horror genre, some of the scenes in these movies aren’t for the squeamish but these movies are…
Every few years I end up watching a horror film which ‘ups’ what I have previously watched. Whilst I have seen quite a few extreme horror movies over the years, its always great to see one that surprises me. Now Im not a gore hound, I don’t seek out a film because its gory, or…

30 Years! Crikey, time flies. I remember watching Boston Kickout when I worked in my local video store.

I remember renting The Return Of The Living Dead from a small video store in my home town. This was likely early 1986 and I wasn’t sure what sort of film to expect. This was years before I had seen Night Of The Living Dead or even Zombie Flesh Eaters in fact The Return Of…

When Pusher was released back in 1996, we didn’t realise that Nicolas Winding Refn would go onto direct some of the most stylish films of the following decades (Drive, The Neon Demon, Only God Forgives) but looking back at Pusher, the evidence is most certainly there that Refn was a director to keep an…
