The Beach House ending, and that jelly…

9th July 2020 by Sarah

Lots of people have called The Beach House Lovecraftian and it’s also had plenty of comparisons to Nicolas Cage’s alien infection fable Colour Out Of Space. I have neither read Lovecraft nor seen that film, though if you want to know what Lovecraftian horror is there’s a handy wiki page here. I found watching The… The Beach House ending, and that jelly… Read More

It’s alive! THAT ending (yes SPOILERS)

30th June 2020 by Sarah 3 Comments

This is very spoilery, including the ending – though there are also lots of questions raised in Alive that are really interesting even if they aren’t always explained. If you only want the final big spoiler, scroll down and it’s in bold. Please feel free to add your thoughts in the comments. It’s easy to… It’s alive! THAT ending (yes SPOILERS) Read More

*** My review and article are now live *** Impetigore, the upcoming horror from Satan’s Slaves director Joko Anwar, now has a trailer – and “blood-soaked” seems like an understatement.

INTERVIEW: closing in on Vivarium director Lorcan Finnegan

31st March 2020 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Mortgages are so bizarre. It’s like even the words mort-gage, it’s like death gauge. Well, when are you going to die? Right. Okay. Oh, here’s some money. Lorcan Finnegan directed the gleefully terrifying Vivarium, a vivid (and scarily recognisable) vision of the inescapable horrors of family life and suburbia in a modern, capitalist society. Vivarium… INTERVIEW: closing in on Vivarium director Lorcan Finnegan Read More

5, 4, 3, 2, 1… the Candyman trailer is here!

28th February 2020 by Sarah Leave a Comment

The maximum I am going to type the name is four times. Just saying. (Or rather, not saying.) Directed and co-written by Nia DaCosta, and produced and co-written by Jordan Peele, this “spiritual sequel” to the original Candyman (that’s two mentions, right?) is set in the now-gentrified old neighbourhood of Cabrini Green. It stars Yahya… 5, 4, 3, 2, 1… the Candyman trailer is here! Read More

1st February 2020 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Wait, there’s a big game this weekend? Big game are in the film clip too, though they have the upper hand / tentacle / leg, whatever they are. We go back to Day 1, and I felt quite nostalgic for poor old Lee (John Krasinski), who makes an appearance.

An even grimmer version of Grimms’ fairy tale. This trailer terrified me, and I love baking.

2nd January 2020 by Sarah Leave a Comment

This time the Abbott family (what’s left of them, anyway) go looking for more survivors, and they aren’t that friendly: “The people that are left [ominous pause] are not the kind of people worth saving”. It won’t just be your nerves jangling as you watch the first proper trailer for A Quiet Place: Part II… A Quiet Place Part 2: the first trailer! Read More
