Would you bloody believe it! Dublin is awash with the undead. Very spoilery on family, the ending and who dies when (if you’re after my review, it’s here) Family The vampire story is an allegory for, and runs parallel to, the exclusion Deco and Shelia feel. Both Deco and Sheila feel neglected and abandoned by… Fangs, fiends and family in Let The Wrong One In Read More
Home is hell not a haven in trailer for The Yellow Wallpaper
A woman becomes obsessed with the (admittedly hideous) wall coverings in her temporary summer home in this upcoming horror. It’s based on the short story of the same name by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, which was published in 1892. Here’s the synopsis: Jane, a writer and young mother, is prescribed a rest treatment by her physician… Home is hell not a haven in trailer for The Yellow Wallpaper Read More
Trailer for Alex Garland horror Men released
“You must wonder why you drove him to it,” says the local (male) vicar to Harper, after she’s just explained she saw her husband throw himself off their balcony to his death. The trailer for upcoming horror-scifi feature Men — written and directed by Alex Garland — is out now. And while it’s extremely unnerving… Trailer for Alex Garland horror Men released Read More
Reed’s Point trailer: if you go down to the woods today…
*** My review and article on the ending are now live *** I’m claiming that monster as British. It’s the teeth. Billed as a psychological horror AND a creature feature, this new Reed’s Point trailer indicates the film will be mining some classic horror tropes, including but not limited to characters going back to where… Reed’s Point trailer: if you go down to the woods today… Read More
ARGHHH! The trailer for Scream is here
That’s Scream 5, though it is simply called Scream, and is a sequel rather than a reboot. I can’t remember a whole lot about the first four films, including how many of them I’ve actually seen, but even I can recognise the intro to this trailer. It’s all updated with new technology, though while focusing… ARGHHH! The trailer for Scream is here Read More
Writer-director Conor Boru on his murder mockumentary When The Screaming Starts
“Imagine Louis Theroux meets the Manson Family…” Conor Boru With so much blood it’s even gushier than a BAFTA ceremony full of luvvies, serial killer mockumentary When The Screaming Starts has a particularly British sensibility to it, what with its David Brent-like main character, Aidan, who wants to become a mass murderer, the campervan-driving documentary… Writer-director Conor Boru on his murder mockumentary When The Screaming Starts Read More
Teaser trailer: Comedy horror mockumentary When The Screaming Starts
A wannabe serial killer, a warped filmmaker, and a murderous cult on a blood-soaked rampage. When The Screaming Starts is a darkly comic tale of how far we will go in order to achieve our ambitions. *** My review is now live — plus read my interview with director and co-writer, Conor Boru *** I’ve seen the… Teaser trailer: Comedy horror mockumentary When The Screaming Starts Read More
Risen trailer kneads together my two favourite genres
Something’s healing, but I don’t think it’s nature… It looks like comets and zombies to me, though these are more human shells with some other entirely new lifeforms created in them (or from them?) Still Army Of The Dead had robot zombies so I think these ones count as members of the undead. Every lifeform… Risen trailer kneads together my two favourite genres Read More
Werewolves Within: order of deaths!
Who is the Beaverfield werewolf? Is miserable Emerson Flint a misanthrope lycanthrope? What about postperson Cecily, the mythical seventh child? Or Trisha the crazy maple syrup lady (though that would mean she ate her own dog)? Could it actually be ranger Finn, the affable incomer? Only two people and one dog are actually killed by… Werewolves Within: order of deaths! Read More
The horror! Something else I’ve been mispronouncing for literally my whole life
And if that sounds like hyperbole, can I point out that hyperbole is probably one of the few words I have been pronouncing correctly (hi-PERR-bol-ee, bol-eev it or not). “We are so much more than our names,” purrs Gerard Butler’s lusty count sexily in Dracula 2000. I mention him because, well, I always do if… The horror! Something else I’ve been mispronouncing for literally my whole life Read More
M. Night Shyamalan’s “Old” trailer drops, slowly like me getting out of a chair
A group of adults and children head to a gorgeous, secluded beach for the day, only to discover they appear to be ageing super-quickly before their eyes, a bit like me when my child tried to explain Roblox. Pre-teens are suddenly adults, the body of a young woman decomposes in record time. The day before… M. Night Shyamalan’s “Old” trailer drops, slowly like me getting out of a chair Read More
Louder for the people at the back: new trailer for A Quiet Place Part 2
I literally forgot all about A Quiet Place 2 after we went into Lockdown in March 2020 — maybe my subconscious at work once we were sheltering from a new foe outside, or maybe Bond 25 and TENET were filling up all the “release date leapfrogging” space — though this trailer has brought it all… Louder for the people at the back: new trailer for A Quiet Place Part 2 Read More
