Horror news, reviews and competitions... Made in Scotland
Sigh…. Disappointing.
You can stop reading now but if you must continue, then know this. I went to the cinema looking forward to the next installment of the spooky found footage franchise and left feeling underwhelmed and deflated. With Paranormal Activity 3 directors Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman returning to the helm, the film is certainly in [...]
So, with the seats in Manchester’s Dancehouse still cooling from this years Grimm Up North festival, you could be forgiven for expecting the organisers to take a well-deserved rest.
If that’s the case, you clearly don’t know how these guys operate.
Never content to rest on their laurels, the Grimm-guys are already hard at work figuring out [...]
I love a good animated kid’s film, so when I saw the trailer for ParaNorman I immediately added it to my long list of films to see. Coming from animation company LAIKA who teamed up with Focus Features, the company behind the Academy Award-nominated Coraline, I was expecting good things.
ParaNorman is a stop-motion animation, directed [...]
The Resident Evil franchise is past it’s prime. Seven years ago it was at peak condition. The Resident Evil 4 video game being a formidable, word class, award winning show man. The most bankable player on the market. Unfortunately it was a tough act to follow and the franchise has lost it’s way ever since, [...]
Having been a keen fan of horror films, and friend of Andy himself, for many years (not to mention being the long-suffering partner of The Harleyquin) it was a pleasure to be given the opportunity to review a film for AndyErupts.
I love films that deal with the subject of demonic possession, exorcism films and anything that gives [...]

So, let’s take a little look then, shall we?
Wednesday 3th October – Preview Night, [...]

However, the organisers are coming out, guns blazing, with a [...]
It’s a risky thing for a person who works in films, be it as an editor, sound designer or a carpenter, to make the move into directing. I have seen some succeed and I have seen some fail.
Paul Hyett has had an impressive career in films spanning over 15 years. As a make-up artist, he [...]
Sometimes it’s a hard life being a reviewer. Some films are impossibly tricky at times. Case in point – The Tall Man. A film whose whole purpose is to keep you guessing, to swipe the rug from under your feet whenever you feel safe watching it and to hit you with so many twists and [...]
Oh. My. God.
I can’t really say too much more than that, to be honest.
Film4 FrightFest the 13th will take place in London’s Leicester Square from the 23rd to 27th August and the full line-up for this year’s festival has been announced and, by Man Alive, is it impressive. 48 films across three screens?
I shan’t rabble on… [...]
