4/5 78% They Came Back (2004) " A contemplative off-beat drama taking a very original look at how society copes with death." — The List
Posted Jul 16, 2013
4/5 85% A Field in England () " It doesn't offer easy answers, but for many its unique take on British folklore will prove Wheatley is one of the most fascinating directors currently at work in the UK." — The List
Posted Jul 2, 2013
4/5 71% Frankenstein's Army (2013) " You've seen found footage horror and Nazi zombies before, but Frankenstein's Army mashes them together in a way that breathes new life into tired genre conventions." — The List
Posted Jun 27, 2013
3/5 86% The Conjuring (2013) " While The Conjuring is incredibly well made there's little we haven't seen before." — The List
Posted Jun 26, 2013
2/5 —— The Complex () " The bottom line is that despite a strong opening act The Complex just isn't very scary." — The List
Posted Jun 20, 2013
3/5 —— Outpost 3: Rise Of The Spetsnaz () " With producer and story credits on the first two instalments Kieran Parker makes his directorial debut and you can tell he knows the Outpost films inside and out." — The List
Posted Jun 20, 2013
2/5 11% After Earth (2013) " It takes itself far too seriously, wasting Will's natural charisma and easy going screen presence." — The List
Posted Jun 7, 2013
3/5 38% The Purge (2013) " The flip into action mode for the final act is slightly incongruous but mirrors the audiences own desire for release, revenge and bloodshed." — The List
Posted May 31, 2013
3/5 80% Nothing But the Truth (2008) " While it won't change the world it certainly deserves to be seen, especially as this is probably Beckinsale's strongest dramatic performance in several years." — The List
Posted May 16, 2013
1/5 4% Scary Movie 5 (2013) " It's crude, gross and probably wishes it was offensive but comes across as just lazy, limp and unfunny." — The List
Posted Apr 18, 2013
3/5 93% Mission To Lars () " Ultimately this is a film about overcoming adversity, facing your fears, family bonding and the power of music to reach anybody and everybody." — The List
Posted Mar 22, 2013
4/5 38% The ABCs of Death (2013) " As with all anthologies the nature of the format means some are better than others. And with this many on offer inevitably there are a few clunkers, but they are so short they don't have time to outstay their welcome." — The List
Posted Feb 28, 2013
3/5 37% Aftershock (2013) " There are a few plot holes and weak motivations exhibited by various characters but the sheer energy on display makes it easy enough to suspend disbelief." — The List
Posted Feb 28, 2013
3/5 77% The Bay (2012) " It's cleverly put together, the threat nicely revealed via various footage and is never over exaggerated to such an extent that it loses touch with reality." — The List
Posted Feb 28, 2013
3/5 47% The Lords of Salem (2013) " Zombie has a vision and you assume in his mind it all adds up to something very dark, deep and meaningful, but that meaning been lost in translation and the film comes across as vague and confused." — The List
Posted Feb 26, 2013
3/5 61% Byzantium (2013) " Even with all the wonderful shots, costumes and the odd splash of blood it all adds up to a fairly average vampire flick." — The List
Posted Feb 26, 2013
3/5 —— Sawney: Flesh Of Man (2013) " It never takes itself too seriously with a wicked sense of humour right up to the blood-soaked final showdown." — The List
Posted Feb 26, 2013
4/5 93% Sleep Tight (2012) " While Sleep Tight is more a dark thriller than a straight horror it inhabits some pretty creepy, twisted territory ..." — The List
Posted Feb 22, 2013
4/5 —— Cartoon College () " Even if you are only a casual fan of the medium it gives a human face to an artist's passion and desire to connect with others via storytelling, highlighting the hard work and dedication involved in this oft overlooked art form." — The List
Posted Feb 14, 2013
4/5 83% Comic-Con: Episode IV - A Fan's Hope (2012) " When you see Marvel happily rubbing shoulders with DC or Star Wars fans chatting to Star Trek fans it makes you proud to be a geek." — The List
Posted Feb 13, 2013
4/5 93% Indie Game: The Movie (2012) " It gives an insight into the creative process and the drive and passion necessary to produce something you want to share with the world." — The List
Posted Feb 12, 2013
3/5 90% Fear and Desire (1953) " It's an unconventional but compelling film as four soldiers find themselves trapped behind enemy lines during an unspecified war." — The List
Posted Jan 22, 2013
2/5 19% Texas Chainsaw (2013) " There are some gory kills and some goofy fun as a huge chainsaw thrusts out of the screen in 3D, but this is a generic by the numbers slasher that squanders TCM's grimy history." — The List
Posted Jan 11, 2013
3/5 86% Manborg (2013) " The colour scheme is garish and nausea-inducing but somehow Manborg is endearingly lo-fi DIY entertainment and Kostanski should be applauded for what he's achieved on this minimal budget." — The List
Posted Dec 13, 2012
3/5 91% Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan () " Essential viewing for any fantasy film fans." — The List
Posted Nov 23, 2012
2/5 24% Paranormal Activity 4 (2012) " It never quite manages to capture the same tension and dread, the scares have become predictable, after all there are only so many times you can pull off the same trick." — The List
Posted Oct 17, 2012
2/5 11% House at the End of the Street (2012) " You've seen every twist and turn before and it's all played completely straight. A Scream-esque knowing wink would make it all far more palatable." — The List
