Maniacts (2001)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier What an odd little film! I’d never really heard of Maniacts before, but happened upon it while browsing Netflix. Starring genre regular Jeff Fahey and recognizable actress Kellie Waymire, Maniacts is a weird mix of drama, romance, comedy and horror. It certainly doesn’t always work because of its slow [...]

Chuckle’s Revenge (2009)

Review by The Wolf I think I’ve made it quite clear on many of my reviews that I have a huge dislike for clowns. They creep me out. They’re most likely closet pedophiles waiting for the right moment to prey on innocent children. They are minions of the Devil and they should be stopped!

Red Mist (2008)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier After loving Paddy Breathnach’s hallucinogenic and freaky Shrooms (review), I was excited to check out Red Mist, another film from the Irish director. In Shrooms, Breathnach combined many different horror tropes to create a very inventive and visually stylish film, something I hoped would be replicated in Red Mist. [...]

Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier I finally got my grubby little hands on the new Nightmare on Elm Street documentary and this past holiday weekend was the perfect opportunity to watch the four-hour film uninterrupted. As soon as I popped it in I knew I was in for a treat because the opening credits [...]

The Crazies (2010)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier I’ve never been a big fan of George A. Romero’s 1973 film The Crazies. I’ve probably only seen it a few times and remember being very underwhelmed by the horror flick. I understand its message and significance, and while I appreciate a good socially conscious film, the original Romero [...]

Silver Bullet (1985)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier Ah, the nostalgia that a Stephen King work brings to me…his stories remind me of being in elementary school and devouring his novels. Of course, it also helped that I could identify with many of his characters, who were usually around my age in the books. I remember reading [...]

Blades (1989)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier How did this little Troma movie pass under my radar for so many years? I mean, killer lawnmowers tend to attract attention but I don’t recall ever hearing about Blades, which, while it sounds like an ice skating movie is actually about a killer machine mowing down golfers at [...]

The Wrong House (2009)

Review by Jude Felton The Wrong House is quite an apt title for this decent independent movie from writer/director Shawn French. The Wrong House is about five friends who go camping and end up breaking into the titular house and stealing a copious amount of drugs.

Peacock (2010)

Review by Sarah “Fatally Yours” Jahier John Skillpa (Cillian Murphy) is a timid, socially-awkward bank clerk living in tiny Peacock, Nebraska who prefers to keep to himself. This might have to do with John’s secret: he has another personality no one knows about, a woman named Emma, who each morning does his chores and cooks [...]

Slasher (2007)

Review by The Wolf The country of Germany isn’t new when it comes to horror. German directors brought us early horror classics such as Nosferatu and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari. Recently, they brought us underground horror movies such as Nekromantik and this 2007 film (just released in 2010 stateside), Slasher, which is directed by [...]
