Overall, Terrifier 3 proves that a little Yuletide seasoning and some punchy editing go a long way to finally giving Art the film he clearly deserves, a raucous and thoroughly cruel slasher fiesta that's sure to be a Halloween season hit.

It's interesting that for all the film's grappling with Arthur's identity crisis, Folie à Deux winds up having one of its own

SK Dale’s direct-to-streaming suckfest Subservience, […] dares to ask the brave question “what if we made the robot… sexy?”

With strong performances, and a compelling narrative that deviates just enough from the original, Speak No Evil is worth a hearty recommendation for fans of the genre.

This film is a functional enough directorial start for Kravitz, but Blink Twice could have used a little more time in the oven.

Emerging from the festival circuit in all its adrenalised glory, Strange Darling is a nightmarishly visceral masterclass in subversion which keeps you on your toes from the get-go.

The result is a refreshingly modern and idiosyncratic film that feels almost antithetical to the filmic formula that the studio system often caters for, and left me excited that a filmmaker like Shyamalan is still exercising his creative hand in original and tonally ambitious ways. 

For those willing to embrace its unique approach, Nash's film offers an off-kilter and strangely beautiful experience.

Grab your popcorn, silence your phone, and sit down for A Quiet Place: Day One - just don’t expect it to leave you anywhere near as speechless as its survivors.

Longlegs still manages to stand out despite the abundance of highly effective and artful horror we are afforded in the modern era.

Much like its predecessor, Twisters is an exhilarating Spielbergian spectacle which showcases the sheer vehemence of nature’s fury.

If you like the Violence! Blood! and Guts! of a John Wick clone then your desires will be met in spades here.

To put it bluntly, The Exorcism is an atmospherically stagnant cinematic offering akin to a long walk down a windy beach to a café that isn’t open.

There's a decent helping of funny-bad horror movie moments that include a particularly saucy burger, the ol’ spontaneously exploding motorcycle trick, and a singular rat being treated as if it's the most terrifying creature on the planet, but the overall experience is about as satisfying as eating soup with a fork.

At the end of the day this is a reasonably satisfying and serviceable entry in the series, a Jerry Bruckheimer production through and through, and possibly my second favourite behind Bad Boys II.

This is ultimately a film about power and rebellion, and it is within the interplay of the two subjects that it shines.

Just a month after the release of Dev Patel’s Monkey Man we get yet another thrilling directorial debut entering into the action subgenre - putting emphasis on crazy fight choreography - in Moritz Mohr’s brand new sci-fi bonanza Boy Kills World.

Monster confronts viewers with an ambiguous ending, leaving us to decipher the truth of who really is the eponymous monster, but perhaps the objective truth is there are monsters in each and every one of us.

Mami Wata truly has the ability to spellbind, yet keeps its feet rooted in a deeply nuanced point of interest: an ever-changing reckoning with modernity.

Monkey Man tells the story of a nameless young man, referred to in the credits as “Kid” and using the self-applied alias “Bobby”, a fighter at an underground boxing ring in Yatana, as he attempts to infiltrate the ranks of the powerful upper class to enact violent revenge for the massacre of his village - a story that mirrors the Hindu epic of Hanuman, the white monkey.
