***THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MILD SPOILERS*** Don’t read this review. Wait. Watch the film. Writer/director Sebastian Gutierrez’s psychosexual sci-fi/horror Elizabeth Harvest works best the less you know, any review of the film inevitably...

Us horror types can be a strange bunch at times, and Cannibal Terror is one of those films that certainly brings out the strange. Is it any good? Absolutely not. Would I recommend it to anyone who considers cinema art? Absolutely not. Is it full of...

If I was put on the spot and asked to name the best sequels ever committed to film, I reckon I would simply HAVE to put Evil Dead 2 near the very top of the list. Bigger, better and bolder than the original instalment, Evil Dead 2 is actually a bit of a...

I might as well put my cards straight on the table – I’m a big fan of Frightfest and all that they do. True, I’m not currently in Glasgow enjoying their March get-together (the simple truth is I cannot afford it) but the August event is one of the...

A cabin in a deserted area of forest. Snowfall cutting off the visitors from much of the outside world. Then an unexpected – and unwanted as it turns out – ‘guest’ appears outside… So far, so ho-hum home invasion chiller right? The type of...
