In the 2000s there was a trend for movie studios to cash in on successful horror franchises from the previous decade. Alone in the Dark was Lionsgate’s hat in the ring, following Sony Pictures Releasing’s Resident Evil and Resident Evil: Apocalypse movies, and Artisan Entertainment’s House of the Dead. Sounds like a cash grab right? You’re not wrong!
When I found out about Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, and how the idea came about I was intrigued. I was even more intrigued when it was described as “a throwback to the gory glory days of 90s horror cinema”, so of course I had to watch this film!
People are still asking Google if The Blair Witch Project was real. The answer is no. It did not happen. No campers were declared missing after a camp-out in the woods. But this is not what the marketing at the time would have you believe. Potentially due to the Mandela effect…
In Evil Toons, four young women are hired to do deep cleaning of a house. Of course, it isn’t just any house – it’s an old, abandoned house with a sordid past! And at the risk of sounding like a Marks and Spencer advert, the four women aren’t just any four women either – they’re four very attractive and very seductive sorority sisters!
As an arachnophobe myself, I must admit that it’s taken me a while to finally muster up the courage to watch Arachnophobia! The thought of seeing the creepy, furry, leggy spiders – especially en masse – jumping out at me from the TV screen?! No thank you!
Peter Jackson’s Splatterpunk horror-comedy masterpiece Braindead is truly a sight to behold. Evil Dead-esque zombies, an unhealthy mother-son dynamic, a Kung Fu priest, a stop-motion monkey-rat hybrid, a Klownzilla final boss, unmatched gore and brutality, and a killer sense of humour – this film has everything, but uncommonly does everything well!
