DEDICATED TO THE HORROR GENRE
FILM REVIEWS
Primate
A pulpy animal rampage horror with B movie sensibilities
Return to Silent Hill
Cool creatures but revisit the original instead
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple
A smart spin-off from its predecessor
Anaconda
Starts promising, ends tiresome
The Housemaid
Never mind the quality, embrace the daft
Silent Night, Deadly Night
A playful and mostly enjoyable twist on the original concept
The Running Man
Fun but flawed
Sisu: Road to Revenge
Gloriously mad and effortlessly enjoyable
The Pearl Comb / Wake
Two horror shorts worth shouting about
Keeper
Modern folk horror without the sting or chill
Predator: Badlands
A solid space slasher
Shelby Oaks
An undemanding slice of American horror pie
Black Phone 2
A worthy sequel
Vicious
A mixed (but gory) bag
The Man in the White Van
A suspense filled (but somewhat tame) game of cat and mouse
Good Boy
A surprisingly creepy treat
The Drowned
A very watchable phantasmagorical horror
Him
Flawed...but sort of bold and ingenious
The Strangers: Chapter 2
Slightly more bearable than the first
The Holy Boy
A restrained, atmospheric meditation on grief and suffering
Coyotes
Not great, but daft enough to be an amusing late-night diversion
The Long Walk
A couldn’t-be-better adaptation of its source material
The Conjuring: Last Rites
The horror equivalent of a cosy crime story
Strange Frequencies
An inferior but not wholly ineffective remake
The Toxic Avenger
A little bit more than just a pile of radiated sludge
