RAW REVIEW

Horror movies are not often set in a Middle Eastern combat zone. The Sci Fi Channel has given us Manticore and Monster Ark, but they are the exception to the rule. Considering how many genre outings are set in the woods or a creepy house/building, a scenery change is welcome. Read more …

Danny Price’s Top 5/5 Best And Motherfucking Worst Picks For 2008

Well kiddos 2008 is about to go flying out the window and what a year it’s been, a majority shitty one that is! Let’s face it 08′ hasn’t been all that positive on the horror aspect of cinema, why is it that anything of value had to have been sort out? *cough* Repo! *cough*, I mean we’ve been bombarded with such crap fests as Mirrors, The Happening, and Mother of Tears, not to mention the usual serving of vomit inducing remakes; Prom Night, One Missed Call, Day of the Dead, but all was not lost because we were indeed blessed with a slew of such awesomely kickass flicks as; [REC*], Let the Right One In, and Inside (A L’interieur).

So here it is, the 5 absolute best and rock bottom worst flicks of 2008 as picked by moi, sit back and enjoy my opinions dammit! - Danny Price

THE HITS

1. LET THE RIGHT ONE IN - What the hell is this!? A vampire movie that isn’t Twilight? Shock horror! In an age of sparkling vampires and anti-climactic happenings it’s nice to see that originality and genius still exist out there…it may be hidden deep in the heart of Sweden but hey it’s better than locked up in “Michael Bays Chest of Love and JoyTM”, a place where originality hasn’t shone in many a century.

This is a movie quite literally made of pure gold (not an actual guarantee), Let the Right One In hit’s the mark in every conceivable way, the emotional aspect not least of all. Thomas Alfredson has created a finely crafted relationship between the two main characters that it puts all other vampire relationship movies (ah, I wonder which one I’m talking about here) to shame. This boys and ghouls is the best flick of 2008, guaran-damn-teed (and that is an actual one). Read more …

Top 10 Favorite Horror Movies For 2008!

10 - THE STRANGERS - It’s tough to claim a fear more deeply effective than home invasion, and this little chiller knows it. Rookie director Bryan Bertino truly understands the power behind the mystery of a masked figure as well as an apparently motiveless crime.. and extra kudos for knowing when to really let a shot linger to keep suspense going instead of trying to generate it through frenetic editing. It’s a nice touch to have a couple we’re to root for on the outs instead of deeply in love, though it’s the trio of iconic assailants that one leaves with the strongest impression of.

9 - CLOVERFIELD - I admit I didn’t think it was going to work as well as it did but there’s a good 20 minute early stretch in this film where I was truly scared, post 9/11 flashbacks aside. This clever kaiju update for the surveillance generation was paced, unsettling and way darker than I figured it would be. Wonderful to see a truly horrific and original monster once again.

Jsyns’s Top 10 Horror Movie Picks Of 2008!

1) LET THE RIGHT ONE IN - For those who have seen it, the general consensus is that it’s the clear frontrunner. Simply put, LET THE RIGHT ONE IN is a sublime, dark and beautiful film. Probably the most fascinating and unique portrayal of vampirism since Larry Fessenden’s HABIT. An absolute must-see.

2) [REC] - In a very close second, another foreign offering. (REC) starts disarmingly ho-hum but winds up ending on such a truly scary note it really just blew me away. No, I didn’t see QUARANTINE and frankly, I’m not going to bother because this one is that good. Read more …
