Transferring a tried and tested formula to a new location is normally a banker but thanks to poor acting and characterisation and ridiculous aliens this horror sci-fi is just awful.
Horror
The Thing
Good ol’ B-movie fun from the classic Eighties duo of Carpenter and Russell.
Nosferatu the Vampyre
Possibly the best adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Excellent performances, a haunting atmosphere and a unique take on the famous novel from Werner Herzog is just enough to give it the edge.
Don't be Afraid of the Dark
I’m afraid you probably won’t be afraid of Don’t be Afraid of the Dark, A very middle of the road horror film that’s not great but okay for a bit of mindless entertainment.
Eden Lake
If you go down to the woods today… you might get tortured and set on fire by teenagers.
Zombieland
A fresh and witty zomcom with lots of laughs and great characters that just doesn’t have quite enough to fill the whole film.
