If the first Hellraiser was a dark, damp chamber piece about a guy hiding under floorboards and discovering that agony is apparently fun, then its 1988 sequel, Hellbound: Hellraiser II, is the heavy-metal sound of the damned.

According to the oft-repeated story, Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein, wrote it on a dare. In 1816, she joined her lover, Percy, and her friends, Lord Byron and John Palidori, at the Villa Diodati, a mansion near Lake Geneva in Switzerland. There, they each decided to write a separate ghost story. Hers was Frankenstein.…

James Mark is back in the driver’s seat with Infiltrate, and this time it’s all gas, no brakes. Front and centre is Orphée Ladouceur-Nguyen, usually the one flipping through the air in stunt work, now stepping into the spotlight as the person causing the damage instead of just doubling it. She plays Agent Chen, dropped…

A new look at Hive is here, and it takes something harmless and twists it into something that feels deeply, aggressively wrong.

For the uninitiated among you, Dracula A.D. 1972 is a film that looks at the gothic horror blueprint, sets it on fire, and then dances around the flames in a crushed velvet blazer while a man named Johnny Alucard tries to convince you he’s cool.

​If you ever find yourself thinking that modern movies are too polished, too coherent, or too reliant on things like consistent lighting and actors who are in the same country, then you need to sit down with Godfrey Ho’s Ninja Terminator. This isn’t just a movie; it’s the cinematic equivalent of a garage sale where…

The red band trailer for Faces of Death has arrived in all its blood soaked glory, and if the first preview was a warning shot, this one’s the full-blown grindhouse riot. This is the second look at the reimagining of one of horror’s most infamous titles, and it’s making it crystal clear: this isn’t nostalgia,…

A new look at Bari Kang’s Itch! is here, and it wastes no time turning a survival story into a pressure cooker with teeth. At the centre is a father trying to keep his daughter safe from a vicious outbreak that causes it victims to itch like crazy and then turn into the kind of…

Forget the guy in the spray-painted William Shatner mask. Forget the heavy breathing in the bushes and the repetitive piano tinkling that sounds like a cat walking across a keyboard.

If you’ve spent any significant portion of your life lurking in the windowless basements of the internet; the kind of places where the links are blue, the UI is 1998-era grey, and the ‘Terms of Service’ are written in what looks like blood, then Demo[N] is going to feel like a personal attack. It’s a…
