Alone With Her (2007) |
|
"The plausibility of the situation (aided tremendously by Talancón's wonderfully natural performance) makes for a deeply disturbing viewing experience." | |
Brian Juergens | |

Amityville 2 - The Possession (1982) |
|
"Indefensibly inappopriate, and oh so much fun..." | |
Brian Juergens | |

5/10 |
|
The Amityville Horror (2005) |
|
"Hovering between amusing and entirely unnecessary, the remake of The Amityville Horror is not the flat-out disaster it could have been." | |
Brian Juergens | |
|
|
|
| |
8/10 |
|
Antibodies (2005) |
|
"Antibodies is refreshing in that it admits that everyone -- from apple-cheeked youths to ruthless killers -- is on a sliding scale of good-to-evil." | |
Brian Juergens | |
|
|
|
| |
5/5 |
|
Carrie (1976) |
|
"A nearly perfect film. The combination of pathos, shocks, and grand guignol excess is orchestrated with jaw-dropping precision by young Depalma, whose later films would pale by comparison." | |

Chaos (2005) |

Cloverfield (2008) |

"CLOVERFIELD is one of those films you wish you could see for the very first time again because the impact will just never be the same on second viewing. I treasured the experience of getting to see this in the theater and it will forever leave a mark on m" | |

Cloverfield (2008) |

"It's the most enjoyable exercise in bedlam I've seen in years. JJ Abrams, I salute you for helping create something I can get behind completely." | |

Constantine (2005) |
|
"I'd argue that Constantine could be watched with the scenes rearranged in any order and still make sense, like episodes of The Simpsons." | |

|
Cursed (2005) |
|
"Cursed feels like a series of curveballs designed to confuse the audience into thinking they're watching anything other than bad dialogue." | |
Brian Juergens | |

|
| |
5/10 |
|
Dark Water (2005) |
|
"It's more Kramer vs. Kramer than Jennifer vs. the Dead Kid in the Sink... still, too-familiar territory lacking an original ghost story." | |
Brian Juergens | |
|
|
|
| |
4/5 |
|
Deathdream (1972) |
|
"Deliberate, uncompromising, and very sad, Bob Clark's quiet masterpiece is still one of the most inspired anti-war genre pics out there." | |

Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist (2005) |
|
"Every element is off-key, and the cumulative effect is staggering -- think Showgirls with a demon possession (and Elizabeth Berkeley's dancing doesn't count)." | |
Brian Juergens | |
|
|
|

3/10 |

Eternal (2005) |

The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005) |

The Eye (2008) |

"Lionsgate has delivered a solid PG-13 horror film that's both entertaining and suspenseful... and for those of you who don't like it, there will be more SAW on October 24." | |

Hellbent (2005) |

"Given HellBent's excellent characters, good scares, and irresistible energy, it's bound to entertain whether your date is of the same sex or otherwise." | |

High Tension (2005) |

The Hills Have Eyes (2006) |

"Hyper-violent, mean, and more interesting in what it does wrong than what it does right" | |
Brian Juergens | |

5/5 |
|
A History of Violence (2005) |

"Appropriately enough, A History of Violence hits like a loud, open-palmed slap on the face." | |

Infection (2004) |

"The St. Elsewhere finale reveals that the series took place in the mind of a retarded kid gazing at a snowglobe. At the end of Infection, I felt the same way.

Lady in the Water (2006) |

The Manson Family (2004) |

"As a horror fan, I was enthralled by the grisliness; as a human being, I was satisfied that the more sensational elements were not the point of the film." | |
Brian Juergens | |

7/10 |
|
Midnight Meat Train (2008) |
|
"MEAT TRAIN is the first BOOK OF BLOOD to depart from the station in a long time and it's refreshing to see that the film carries that bleak, yet romantic touch of Clive Barker all over it... it's guaranteed to make you squirm, scream and beg for more!" | |

The Omen (2006) |

One Missed Call (2003) |

Pathology (2008) |

"If you are a hardcore fan of films like FLATLINERS, I guarantee that you'll dig this flick... PATHOLOGY is really a gem that doesn't deserve to be overlooked." | |

Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008) |

Saw II (2005) |

"While it’s far from perfect, this “bigger, faster, more” take on the now-familiar Jigsaw killer scenario improves on most of the mistakes of the original." | |
Brian Juergens | |
|
|
|

1/5 |
|
Shutter (2008) |
|
"SHUTTER should have been the scariest horror film since THE RING, but instead it was infuriatingly bad. This joins ONE MISSED CALL in the ranks of worst horror remakes of all-time and I highly recommend skipping this one for the original..." | |
