A Ghostly Pushover
One week on since fun and games at a paranormal investigation… Perhaps it's safe to talk about it now. Perhaps it's not.
Cassadaga
Enough strands are left to ponder to deem writers Bruce Wood and Scott Poiley as worthy of keeping an eye on.
Sometimes They Come Back
A painfully average film, its classic horror status somewhat baffling. Purchase to complete your Stephen King collection.
The Shrine
Effectively creates tension to complement an overall creepiness, to deliver a climax that keeps the viewer in the dark.
Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark (2010)
Under the impressive visuals and solid cast there are genuine flaws, and it allows itself to surrender to cliché too easily.
The Awakening
The raison d'être is ludicrous and sewn up in minutes, but the cast is very good, as is the cinematography and symbolism.
The Rite
All a rather predictable outcome that doesn't offer anything we've not seen before, but Anthony Hopkins saves it.
Insidious
With huge jump scares and more subtle, creepy moments, this is a film which has mastered the whole spectrum of horror filmmaking.
Wake Wood
With nicely subtle handling of its occult element, the film slowly builds an atmosphere and is more chilling as a result.
