New Releases
Mother Mary
Mother Mary, the latest from David Lowery, is a hard beast to define. It’s a psychosexual thriller, a gothic romance, a costume drama, a pop musical, and, despite the tagline, a ghost story. It’s a bundle of different moods each more dramatic than the last and its one off the oddest “big” releases of 2026. […]
Resident Evil
Resident Evil is one of the most recognisable horror brands out there. The video game franchise is a multi-million-dollar powerhouse comprised of 11 games, a 6-film franchise, a reboot, and a TV series, not to mention novels, comics, and spin off games. The last film, Welcome to Racoon City didn’t resurrect interest in a film […]
Evil Dead Burn
Since it was announced that Sebastien Vanicek was helming the next Evil Dead film, I’ve been hyped. The French director has only one credit to his name, 2024’s Infested, but what a debut it was. Gross, brutal, inventive, and slick as hell, it was a great job application for joining the Evil Dead franchise. Vanicek’s entry, the third without Bruce Campbell or Sam […]
Cold Storage
What if the greatest threat to mankind isn’t some soon-to-be-discovered lethal pathogen, but something already here, known, and soon-to-be unleashed? This is the set-up for Cold Storage Jonny Campbell’s sci-fi splatter film adapted from the novel by David Koepp, famed screenwriter of Jurrassic Park, Spider-Man, and Panic Room to name a few. Like Michael Crichton before him, Koepp imbibes his script with a touch of […]
Dust Bunny
What does a Bryan Fuller film look like? That’s what many of us were thinking when the man behind TV hits Dead Like Me, Pushing Daisies, Hannibal, and Star Trek Discovery teased Dust Bunny back in 2022. The writer/producer has made a name for himself with quirky, comic, and macabre properties, securing a huge cult following with the currently dormant, but beloved, Hannibal TV adaptation starring Mads Mikkelsen. Whilst there’s no news of Hannibal season 4, fans can whet their appetite with the […]
Reflection in a Dead Diamond
Since 2009 Belgian duo Helene Cattet and Bruno Forzani have been crafting exquisite genre love letters. Their brand of eye-candy visuals and intensely sensuous sound design are instantly recognisable, as are the influences they flaunt so proudly. Their first and second features, Amer and The Strange Colour of Your Body’s Tears, are odes to Italian Giallo whilst their third, Let the Corpses Tan, is a dive into the world of Spaghetti Westerns. Reflection in a Dead Diamond, their fourth film and first in 8 years, takes on the psychedelic, far-fetched, and fantastical Euro crime […]
Cuckoo
Tilman Singer’s Cuckoo has been one of the most hyped horror films of 2024. No easy task considering this is the year of Longlegs, Trap, Alien: Romulus, and Maxxxine to name just a few. Back in 2018, Singer’s Luz was the darling of the festival circuit, a dreamy take on possession horror with a queer slant […]
The Substance
The Substance is, by any stretch, a batshit sophomore step for Coralie Fargeat and without a doubt the most nuts thing on Demi Moore’s CV. Where Fargeat’s 2017 debut Revenge offered a vibrant visceral update of the rape-revenge sub-genre, The Substance is a stylish, sexy, and all together horrifying new chapter in body horror. Moore stars […]
Longlegs
It feels like ages since the first posters for Longlegs dropped and even longer since horror fans had such a potent buzz eruption. The mystery around Oz Perkins’ fourth feature film has been a singular ride for horror hounds, fermented by mysterious posters, Satanic riddles, and the cautious withholding of Nicolas Cage’s visage from marketing. […]
Infested
When we talk about spider horror movies we talk about Arachnophobia, Eight Legged Freaks (for my money Big Ass Spider is the better daft B-Movie), and maybe that bit in The Mist. Hold on though, because there’s fresh phobia-instigation for a whole new generation. From now on Infested will be a staple of those lists and conversations. The […]
