Although it was received with mixed reviews, 2016’s The Boy attracted a reasonable amount of attention thanks to its unusual conclusion. It managed to steer clear of the familiar ‘creepy doll’ horror tropes and was…

It’s been 10 years since the release of Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island and hence, 10 years since I was totally enthralled and disturbed by it as a 14-year-old. When I first heard the film’s ominous…

Wounds has been on my watchlist ever since I read the early reviews. It could have been the mysterious and vague premise: creepy and gross things transpire after a bartender (played by the hunky Armie…

From The Mind Of Stephen King… …is no guarantee of cinematic quality. For every Stand By Me or Misery, there’s a Pet Sematary or /shudders Maximum Overdrive. So where does this adaptation of King and Joe Hill’s In The…
