Horror news, reviews and competitions... Made in Scotland
Well, it has been quite a ride for Ombis, the low budget sci-fi horror from Buffalo-based production company DefTone Pictures Studios and it is a ride that we have covered here since Day One.
Writer/director Adam R. Steigert got in touch to drop off the latest gooey clip from the film, which has recently been snapped [...]
It’s been a little while since we last talked about Buffalo, New York based indie company DefTone Picture Studios’ upcoming sci-fi feature film, Ombis. However, that doesn’t mean that there has been nothing happening. Oh no. Writer/director Adam R. Steigert has been deep in the edit and very kindly got back in touch with us to [...]
It was almost a year ago that we last mentioned jumbo-sized “twist on the myth”, Bunyan.
Time flies and still the film hasn’t dropped, however, that is all about to change as the film gears up for its World Premiere on November 17 at the Shockfest Film Festival in Hollywood.
The synopsis is as follows,
The movie is [...]
It’s been a while since we last mentioned Alin Bijan’s Ghost of Goodnight Lane and truth be told, I had totally forgotten about it. However, no more as director Bijan has posted the trailer for the film to his Vimeo page.
The trailer is, quite frankly, bonkers.
Billy Zane (Titanic), Lacey Chabert (Mean Girls), Danielle Harris (Halloween), Matt [...]
Of course, it had to be. The quintessential Halloween movie is the one named after the day itself. It’s the best. It’s John Carpenter’s Halloween.
The film that defines the time of year, it’s also a film that for 31 years now has defined my birthday and although it’s not my favourite film, it’s just simply [...]
“They’re coming to get you, Barbara…”
George A. Romero’s 1968 zombie thriller Night of The Living Dead is an undisputed masterpiece. It has set the benchmark SO high, it’s nigh on unreachable. Almost 45 years later, it’s still cited as a major inspiration for many, many film-makers.
“When there is no more room in Hell, the Dead, [...]
“One, two, Freddy’s coming for you.
Three, four, better lock your door.
Five, six, grab your crucifix.
Seven, eight, gonna stay up late.
Nine, ten, never sleep again…”
Wow. Just wow. This film scared me rigid the first time I saw it and I still believe it to be one of the most effective horror films I have ever seen. [...]
“Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfsbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.”
Ever since Lon Chaney Jr. donned the hairy rubber mask and feet for Universal’s 1941 classic, The Wolf Man, cinema goers have been entranced by werewolves, by the [...]
There is something about the mix of zombies and comedy that just works. How can zombies be so terrifying in one film but then manage to make us laugh in another? What is it about our undead brethren that is just so damn funny? Maybe it’s the fact that you can do any ludicrous thing [...]
I’d guess that this entry in the list, above all others, will be the one that causes the most disagreements. The Blair Witch Project. The great divider. Genuine cinematic marmite.
Love it or hate it, it’s hard to deny that The Blair Witch Project has become something of a cultural phenomenon. One of the first films [...]
