Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

The notorious possessed doll known as CHUCKY has become one of the horror genre’s most recognizable characters, thanks mostly to the last two films in the series, namely BRIDE OF CHUCKY and SEED OF CHUCKY. Those final two sequels (following on from the first three CHILD’S PLAY films) saw the character, voiced by Brad Dourif [...]

SAW 5: THE STARSTORE MOVIE REVIEW

Monday, October 27th, 2008

YOU WON’T BELIEVE HOW IT ENDS, cries the promotional literature and online trailers for SAW V, the latest in the massive horror franchise. No, you won’t, but not in a good way, sadly. That tagline is rather misleading as the film doesn’t actually have a real ending, so don’t get your hopes up. That said, [...]

HORROR MOVIES: WHERE DID ALL THE FUN GO?

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

While some may argue we are enjoying something of a resurgence in ‘true’ horror movies, with your million SAW sequels and million remakes of classics, I am left wondering what happened to the horror films that would have you yelling ‘COOL!’ amidst your screams. The 1980s are a prime example of an era in which [...]

CINEMA OF FEAR 2: FREDDY, JASON AND LEATHERFACE ACTION FIGURES RETURN!

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Some recent additions to our action figure wall are really impressing me. Well, three out of the four figures in this new set of CINEMA OF FEAR action figures are anyway. The first set were marvellous things, but they were perhaps a little too stylised for some tastes. The next batch are in the store [...]

FRIDAY THE 13TH MOVIE REMAKE GETS ITS JASON

Monday, March 31st, 2008

The forthcoming remake of FRIDAY THE 13th just got interesting. I’ve been a detractor of the idea of remaking such an iconic moivie since I first heard about it (Don’t get me started on the Elm Street remake, just don’t), but now we have a name for the man that will portray the legendary Jason [...]
