‘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 […]
The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia
Released in early 2013 through video on demand (VOD), The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia is based on a true story of a family living in Georgia. The movie continues the horror scenes with frightening paranormal experience, but nowhere close to the story of the first supernatural thriller of the same franchise released in […]
Don’t Blink (2014) – One vanishes as other blinks
I guess this is one of the finest supernatural thrillers I have watched in recent times. The idea of horror movies is to make us aware of the fear inside us by bringing us to face some unknown entity or supernatural power, but not necessarily a ghost or some weird looking stuff. Don’t Blink is […]
Where the Devil Hides (2014) – supernatural power or serial killer?
Where the Devil Hides (renamed later as The Devil’s Hand) is a supernatural horror thriller based on a small village of New Bethlehem, where an orthodox religious community (Amish) members are living under the supervision of elders with limited access to the outer world. Living under the fear of a horrific prophecy come true, six […]
The Appearing (2014) – More Surprises, Less Horror
Don’t know if this is only my view, but these days there are very few horror films that can scare you to death. In fact, horror films with not-so-convincing storylines make those very boring to watch. Nevertheless, films like “The Conjuring”, “Insidious: Chapter 2” and “Mama” are some of the finest horror films of recent […]
Run Like Hell (2014) – No Thrill At All
Written and directed by James Thomas, Run Like Hell is just a lame thriller that doesn’t give you an ounce of thrill in the entire film. There has been no head or tail of this film other than numerous killing scenes by a group of fellows whose motives behind their psychotic acts remain unknown till the […]
