‘We Are Still Here’ (2015): A Tense, Frightening & Haunting Ghost Story
After watching quite a few independent horror movies in the last couple of years, I can safely say that there are few filmmakers who can actually come up with an impressive story and concept. Even though ‘We Are Still Here’ is not an independent production, it nowhere tries to overdo things with any usual ghost […]
‘Insidious: Chapter 3’ (Movie Review) – Better Than Chapter 2
Many times the idea behind a movie prequel is more interesting than a sequel. The popular horror film franchise ‘Insidious’ in its third installment has proved it yet again with an engaging plot. While I must say that I liked the first part and not much the second, ‘Insidious: Chapter 3’ is certainly terrifying, in […]
‘Indigenous’ (2014) – Horror – Tries Too Heard to Meet Genre Expectations
Ever since Paranormal Activity is released, the found-footage style of filmmaking has become a norm in the horror genre. Of course, the whole style of filmmaking where one or more characters in the film record the happenings while being an integral part of the story makes the whole experience interesting. However, one needs to be particular about […]
The Last House on Cemetery Lane (2015)
So, here is another haunted house story The Last House on Cemetery Lane but with a little different story to tell unlike those others filled with too many jump scare moments. Directed by British filmmaker Andrew Jones, known for scripting and directing horror films, this has been released lately on DVD and other digital platforms. […]
The Lazarus Effect (2015) – Movie Trailer
Jason Blum, the producer of The Purge, Paranormal Activity and Insidious is back with yet another horror film ‘The Lazarus Effect’ but this time directed by a documentary filmmaker David Gelb (Jiro Dreams of Sushi). Recently, the trailer of the film has been released that suggests the plot which seems interesting for the horror genre. Lazarus Effect stars Evan Peters, […]
‘The Purge: Anarchy’ (Movie Review)
The Purge: Anarchy is the sequel to last year’s horror flick The Purge. The new film is a little better with a slight deviation from the original outline, in terms of narratives. In the first part of the series, the Purge was all about middle and upper-class citizens either hiding or purging on the street. […]
Grace: The Possession (DVD release, 2014)
Talking about the film Grace: The Possession writer-director Jeff Chan tries to make it a bit different by capturing the horror and trauma from the very eye of the possessed. Many of us have watched the likes of Exorcist and The Last Exorcism, where the demonic act and the exorcism rituals were in the center stage. […]
Annabelle (2014) – A Prequel to ‘The Conjuring’ (Review)
For those who have already watched The Conjuring, this new supernatural horror film Annabelle will look familiar evidently with the same idea of an evil doll and also the fact that it’s a prequel of last year’s The Conjuring. After watching the movie, I would say that filmmaker John R. Leonetti’s Annabelle is not as […]
‘Flight 7500’ – Takashi Shimizu’s Supernatural Thriller
Looking at only the numbers in the title, you probably would not guess anything in this new supernatural thriller named “Flight 7500.” I usually do not watch movies after reading a complete review or getting to know any spoilers, so I went for this movie without even knowing that it is a supernatural movie. But […]
Would You Rather (2013) – Movie review
Director David Guy Levy’s Would You Rather (2013) is a nice low budget thriller but somehow failed to attract universal attraction in comparison to some of its contemporaries. The film plays a diabolical version of the popular dinner party parlour game Would You Rather where the participants must opt for one of the two dreadful punishments, often […]
