Yes, this is a B movie that you could catch any given night on TV, but this is a hell of a B movie. Riding on the eighties vibe and slowly transcending into nineties it uses the best of both decades. In a lead role we have Rutger Hauer, a classical tough, macho man, he [...]

Directed by now famous Brad Anderson this little gem has somehow managed to stay under the radar. It is not pretentious, nor glamorous but more visceral and realistic (as much as you can be with this subject), and if you like that vibe I bet that you will enjoy this movie. It is not based [...]

After seeing Julias Eyes I decided to check out the first Guillem Morales movie El Habitante Incierto, and it was an amazing experience. It is really rare to see such an original and interesting movie, especially nowadays, and I doubt that any remake could achieve the atmosphere of the original. Everything is perfectly logical or [...]

As soon as I saw that Guillermo del Toro was attached somehow to this project I knew that it is going to be good. He produced this movie and Guillem Morales (The Uncertain Guest) wrote and directed it with a very noticeable European vibe. So do not expect another Pan’s Labyrinth but something with a [...]

Although this movie is marketed as Clive Barker’s The Plague, I doubt that Clive was significantly involved. I guess he sat down one day and wrote a short story that was supposed to be developed by the director and the rest of the crew (according to producers they wrote the story themselves and the company [...]

Based on a story that was published in Playboy in 1957 (the following year it was turned into a movie The Fly starring magnificent Vincent Price), this movie is a remake of the 1958 version. With David Cronenberg as director this movie turned into something more experimental than people were expecting. This also shows the [...]

Here`s a bit older movie (well not that old…), but with a good story and nice acting. Directed by Gregory Jacobs and with some big players involved (George Clooney, Steven Soderbergh) it starts out pretty lame, but I guess that was the intention of the writer and director. It is really nice to see this [...]

After the sudden revival of the Exorcist movies in the nineties, the madness continues, producing crappier and crappier movies. I do not know why, but I have to check them out, at least those with some potential. When I saw Anthony Hopkins attached to this project I remember thinking to myself if Anthony fucks it [...]

I just noticed that that there are many movies that have something going on in the __th street, what the fuck is up with that? This time, behind this title we will find a relatively interesting, but not very complete movie. It seems that the director in its desire to make the movie mysterious went [...]

When I read that this movie is one of the Quentin Tarantino’s favorites I had to see it. And what can a man expect from Japanese film makers than this bloody mess. Set in the future, this movie provides us with some rather unorthodox decisions of the government. In this case government kidnapped an entire high [...]

Can you base your movie on one hot female lead? The answer is yes. Natasha Henstridge was 21 when she made this movie and I am glad that she did. She is so hot, and the director knew that, so we are able to see her boobs every 5 minutes. After the human kind receives [...]

Another example of great horror movies coming to us from France. This time the director makes his mixture of a classical American Texas Chainsaw/Hills Have Eyes movie. After the riots in Paris, a group of young delinquents are trying to reach border and get to Amsterdam with some stolen cash. On their way they will [...]

Directed by Stephen Herek (Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure, Life or Something Like It) it’s about critters, a furry monsters with a set of razor-sharp teeth and they favorite meal [...]

Although a bit older, this classic movie needs to be checked out, especially if you are a horror movie fan. You just need to see the directors and the writers name to be intrigued (George A. Romero, Stephen King). Through the Creepshow series you can see the progression of horror movies, and the first part [...]

The Faculty may only look like some teenage crappy movie, but it is not. On this example you can see where these types of movies went after the year 2000 and this whole Harry Potter, and even worse Percy dumbass. We basicly have the same plot of group of young people fighting something supernatural but [...]

When you have to make a movie about a subject so widely recognized it is very difficult to please everyone. Same goes for the Dracula. And I think that Francis Ford Coppolas Dracula (1992) and this movie are the prime examples of how a movie of such magnitude should be done. First of all, the [...]

Here we have another monster flick that was pretty good in its decade. Although some of the effects may seem a bit outdated at this time, they are still very pleasant to the eye and they look pretty decent in comparison with some of the recent movie blunders. Although it is based on a book, [...]

Yep, it`s another cave movie. This time the cast is consisted almost entirely of TV series heroes, that I am sure you will recognize. And as in the previous one, a group of cave explorers get attacked by something otherworldly in the dark and creepy caves. The script resembles a movie that was released one [...]

This remake of a George A. Romero flick The Crazies 1973 is something that shows that Hollywood and the movie studios are running out of ideas. The script could held water in 1973 but in 2010 it just seems stupid and presumptuous. And the movie title reminds me of the Tremors monster Graboid, we are [...]

With the release of the sequel to this great movie from 2005, lets take look inside the creepy caves inhabited by something that is not human. Coming to us from Neil Marshall( Dog Soldiers, Doomsday and his upcoming movie Centurion) this movie cleverly uses close quarters to create the claustrophobic feeling with the viewer. After a tragic [...]
