From writers and directors Sonny Laguna and Tommy Wiklund (with David Liljeblad as an additional writer) comes Wither (Vittra), Sweden’s answer to The Evil Dead. Where the only memorable thing about it ends up being the excessive amount of blood and guts that are spilled.
No more do fans have to crave a slap up meal of Thanksgiving horror, The Last Thanksgiving takes the holiday and puts it front and centre. Unfortunately, it’s about the only thing the movie has going for it.
The Breach is a horror movie that shows a lot of promise, but eventually gets bogged down by a muddled story and an attempt to blend genres, admirable as though that might be.
Coming from director Peter ‘Drago’ Tiemann, who co-wrote the story with Jason L Lowe, The Stairs seems to have an exciting concept with strong, mysterious vibes, but in the end, fails to deliver a satisfying experience.
It’s the epitome of an ‘unchain your brain’ movie. Simply sit back, don’t overthink it, and enjoy the stupidity of it all. You’ll get to see bodies ripped in half, heads smashed open, and the hilarious sight of a clay piñata sprinting.
From director Rueben Martell, who co-wrote the story with Rueben Martell, comes Don’t Say Its Name. A horror that combines Inuit folklore and real-life issues that come from being within an isolated community.
Cobweb is a horror thriller directed by Samuel Bodin in his directorial debut and a screenplay by Chris Thomas Devlin.
