8/10 | 82% | Trollhunter (2011) |
What do you get when you combine Cloverfield with Nordic Trolls? This very funny monster mockumentary. ‐ Revolver

8/10 | 80% | I Saw the Devil (2011) |
Worth the price of admission for the wildly creative (and brutally bloody) taxicab scene alone. Merciless, uncompromising, and unforgettable.‐ Revolver

9/10 | 80% | The Skin I Live In (2011) |
Not since David Cronenberg have surgery, sex and violence frolicked in the same stained bed so skillfully. ‐ Revolver

91% | Hot Fuzz (2007) |
A hilarious send-up to police action films like Super Cop and Bad Boys 2, fuelled by British black humour and a few cartoonish but great gore gags.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

10/10 | 95% | Pan's Labyrinth (2006) |
A gorgeously executed and disturbingly violent moving picture poem that bravely flies in the face of genre convention and stands alone in its purpose.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

5/5 | 92% | The Devil's Backbone (El Espinazo del diablo) (2001) |
A treasure of artistic elements and genres synthesized together in a flawless cohesion of cinematic and visual poetry.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

0/5 | 1% | Alone in the Dark (2005) |
How Uwe Boll manages to scrape together enough investment money to give wing to this type of overblown, amateurish gibberish is truly a mystery of the cosmos...‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

92% | Shaun of the Dead (2004) |
A clever spoof film that's actually well-written, witty, dynamically shot and edited, thankfully lacking the mentality of expelled phlegm.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

81% | Hellboy (2004) |
'This just in: Hellboy is real! ... the big red ape has been spotted at theatres all over town and the public reaction isn't quite what the B.P.R.D. expected - they love him!'‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

5/5 | 54% | Uzumaki (2002) |
'Uzumaki is a masterfully rendered living portrait of warped, apocalyptic art...'‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

52% | The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra (2004) |
The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra is teeming with terrible dialogue, cardboard thespians, corny props snatched off eBay and mutilations, mutilations, MUTILATIONS!‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

3% | House of the Dead (2003) |
If you want to see what a cinematic piece of dog barf looks like, go see House of the Dead, otherwise do yourself a favour and play the video game, it's far more entertaining.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

37% | The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) |
If I hadn't already seen the original film, and wasn't desensitized from a lifelong horror addiction, I think I might have been frightened by some of it.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

5/5 | 69% | May (2003) |
'May is nothing short of brilliant. It is likely the most original horror story I have seen in years.'‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

48% | Final Destination 2 (2003) |
'Make no mistake, without the slicing, dicing, filleting, and pureeing, this flick is a recipe for boredom. But like its predecessor, I was expecting a bloodless teen snorefest and got something several sanguineous degrees better!'‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

64% | Gin gwai (The Eye) (2002) |
The Eye is definitely a triumph of style over substance but, nevertheless, it's been far too long since I've been genuinely spooked by a horror film.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine

45% | Beyond Re-Animator (2003) |
Incredibly stupid but mercilessly funny.‐ Rue Morgue Magazine
