Rating: 3/10 Snuff: A Documentary About Killing on Camera

Disgust. Fear. Revulsion. Curiosity.

Rating: 7/10 Magic

It's hard to believe that "Magic" has wallowed in obscurity for so long

Rating: 3/10 Blood Games

This sleaze movie seems to labor under the misguided idea that it has to motivate its nudity.

Rating: 1/10 Stay Alive

Like a lot of cinematic garbage, there's an interesting concept at the core of “Stay Alive.”

Rating: 8/10 Begotten

Trying to synopsize a film like this would do it a terrible disservice.

Rating: 8/10 Metropia

The creepy, dingy art style puts the ‘blah’ in ‘bleak’.

Rating: 1/10 The Absent

A pseudo-slasher based around a torrent of high school intrigue.

Rating: 4/10 Plague Town

The same variety of impossible as expressing no discomfort while having the top of your head unexpectedly disunited from your body with razor wire.

One of the most generic slasher films I’ve seen.

Rating: 5/10 Harpoon: Whale Watching Massacre

The story could be best described as “a hot mess.”

Rating: 6/10 Incident at Raven's Gate

I don’t know if the world needed a dark reworking of “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” but if you ever wondered what that might look like, wonder no more.

Rating: 1/10 Don't Look Up

Why is this movie so bad you ask? Where do I even begin?

Rating: 7/10 Siege of the Dead (Rammbock)

“Siege of the Dead” is a great example of a movie that realizes that its story comes from the characters, not from the zombies.

Rating: 6.5/10 Pig Hunt

This formula generally yields a specious, antiseptic procession of latter day boulevardiers slumming in Kryolan mud while expertly communicating the filmmakers’ snooty contempt for horror fans.

Rating: 7/10 Centurion

"Centurion" is a fun trip into genre territory led by a director with a fan’s passion for the material, but it never really rises above that.

Rating: 8/10 Red Hill

"Red Hill" combines Aussie Western sensibilities with horror's pacing for a potent revenge flick.

Rating: 6/10 S&Man (Sandman)

Director J.T. Petty has a unique and interesting voice and a yen to tell stories that possess a good deal of freshness.

Horror films need a set of rules.

Rating: 8/10 White Dog

“White Dog” is a blunt and unflinching look at the roots of racism as well as a narrative debate about the “curablity” of racism.

Our 7-year cinematic nightmare comes to an end. Hopefully.

Rating: 5/10 Space Amoeba

As luck would have it the pixiedust or space amoeba is actually a galactic monster named Yog that possesses other organisms for evil purposes, often swelling them to Brobdingnagian proportions.

Rating: 2/10 Life Blood

“Life Blood” is the worst Rob Zombie movie Rob Zombie didn’t make.

A puzzling too-late sequel to a throwaway too-late Asian horror cash in
