From award-winning filmmaker Jon Knautz, writer-director of the cult hit horror-comedy “Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer”, comes The Shrine, “a wonderfully eerie slice of Lovecraftian horror” (BeyondHollywood.com) that sets itself up as a traditional genre entry before brilliantly and unexpectedly pulling the rug from beneath the viewer with a killer twist. Starring Aaron Ashmore (Smallville; Veronica Mars), Cindy Sampson (Supernatural; Reaper) and Meghan Heffern (The Fog; Chloe), The Shrine has been hailed as “true-blue horror all the way… uncompromising and aggressively nasty” (FearNet.com) and gained plaudits for its “great story arc, solid writing and acting, and a last act that’ll...

Review: Before the Fall

before-the-fall

One type of war movie I find interesting to watch are World War 2 based stories that are based on the German point of view; they often show a deeper and insightful perspective from the German side of the conflict. This of course differs from the usual stereotypical Hollywood view of what the war was like for Germans. The first thing to note really is that Before the Fall is not really a war movie at all. It does feature elements such as the Nazi code and as it’s a school that is creating what is seen as the...

Book Review: High Moor by Graeme Reynolds

High-Moor

Werewolves to me are the most tragic of the fairy tale monsters. The constant struggle between the beast inside and the human, the blood lust and the loss of control over the beast they are the cursed with. Of course the Freudian view is that the beast inside has something to do with sex, but that was Freud for you; everything was about sex. High Moor is a werewolf story that attempts to pull the werewolf back to its core, the manic beast ready to rip your throat out for both the sport of it and to feed. It’s...

For people who are used to “J-sploitation” films they will know what’s coming when I tell you that Helldriver comes from the same people who gave us Tokyo Gore Police. I’ll admit I’m a lover of Tokyo Gore Police, I love it’s all out gore, it’s attempts to shock and the fact it’s all out crazy. Helldriver is very similar in that approach, and it’s got a chick with a chainsaw sword, where can it go wrong? The story set up for Helldriver is simple. There is the need for revenge as a daughter see’s her father killed by...

DevilsCrossing-DVD

I found Devil’s Crossing to be a strange film, with a feel of a typical cowboy themed film but set in a modern day feel it surprised me when I read the synopsis and found that it’s set after a nuclear war. This war must have been some time in the close future because there are not many things that look futuristic. If anything they feel like they’ve gone back into the past, which of course may be the whole point, though it was slightly lost on me to a point. The story is that a drifter moves from...

As a David Cronenberg fan I’m really looking forward to a Dangerous Method. Starring Michael Fassbender, Keira Knightley and Viggo Mortensen it looks at the relationship between Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud. In this exploration of sensuality, ambition and deceit set the scene for the pivotal moment when Jung, Freud and Sabina come together and split apart, forever changing the face of modern thought. Here is the trailer: A Dangerous Method is released in the UK 10th February. Share
