The Fly
Perfect 10 Points 1986

The Fly is one of those extremely rare 80s horror movies that isn’t a cliche camp-fest. It doesn’t have an ending that drags on, it doesn’t use cliche moments and it’s incredibly inventive and eye-popping. When I started watching the movie I had absolutely no idea what I was in for and when I fin…

Poltergeist
Perfect 1 Points 1982

My favorite film of all time on so many levels…
Of course every year i have a favorite movie of the year but Poltergeist has been at the top ever since i saw it in 82. From the direction (by Spielberg obviously, not Hooper) to the grippling and often touching music of Goldsmith, from the perfe…

Only Lovers Lef...
Perfect 66 Points 2013

Brilliant vampire movie, thy name is Only Lovers Left Alive. Literate, laconic and full of lusciously languorous lassitude, it presents as ageless and au courant. Jim Jarmusch’s undead triumph introduces four vampires, though the V word is never used: Adam & Eve, Kit & Ava. Trust me, they …

The Texas Chain...
Perfect 13 Points 1986

This film is completely insane and in a gloriously entertaining way. A tiny bit less scarey than the original but way more unnerving and unpredictable. Not as dumb as people say either as it continues the Vietnam allegories of the first film and the brilliantly OTT finale works as a deconstructio…

True Blood
Perfect 10 Points 2007

There’s no escaping it, I adore this little campy horror show. Vampires are butchered in the media today with Twilight, but True Blood shows what vampires are really about, while showing insane amounts of sex and violence.

Midnight Meat T...
Perfect 5 Points 2008

..Midnight Meat Train signals the return of originality to the horror genre. Based upon the short story of the same name from Clive Barker’s “Books of Blood”, Midnight Meat Train is everything you’d expect from a film with that title…although it also contains one very interesting plotline that…

Ginger Snaps
Perfect 5 Points 2000

When it comes to horror in the early 21st century, John Fawcett’s fierce “Ginger Snaps” might surprisingly stand at the top of the heap – arguably superior to some of the best genre films of recent years, like Greg McLean’s “Wolf Creek” or Alexandre Aja’s “Haute Tension.” In the annals of feminis…

Fido
Perfect 20 Points 2006

The Robinsons are one of the only families in the neighborhood who don’t own a pet zombie. This is largely because Bill Robinson (Baker) deathly fears them. When he was younger his father turned in to a zombie and he was forced to kill him. Ever since then zombies and his father were subjects t…

High Tension
Perfect 5 Points 2003

An ultra-violent claustrophobic horror that confirms Alexandre Aja’s standing as one of the most provocative and talented genre filmmakers working today, “High Tension” (or “Haute Tension” in it’s native France, “Switchblade Romance” in the UK) inserts into it’s mad, frightening 91 minutes set-pi…
