Horror Movie Review: Marco Polo (2008)
Marco Polo as a slasher killer? Writer and director Alton Glass’ horror movie was doomed from the very start.

The Demon Disorder combines Cronenberg-esque body horror with supernatural elements, while sprinkling in various metaphors surrounding family disfunction and degenerative diseases.
Rippy is a lacklustre horror blended with unnecessary drama that doesn’t have impact because it’s in a film about an undead kangaroo.
Marginally better than some of the worst films in the Amityville ‘franchise’, Matt Jaissle’s Amityville VR is a torturous experience and follows on from 2024’s Amityville AI, an equally terrible film.
A good idea, wasted, Amityville AI isn’t good, but it’s not the worst of the franchise either.
Having well and truly lost their lustre many years ago, it’s hard to get too excited about any zombie film these days, let alone one that takes a more traditional path. Which is exactly what Gone with the Dead does.
There have been so many bad ‘Amityville’ films now, that it is easy to forget there are actually good ones here and there. Amityville Apt. is such a film, even if its anthology-style story isn’t always the easiest to follow.
Directed by Thordur Palsson and written by Jamie Hannigan, who adapted the screenplay from a story by Palsson, The Damned is such a promising folk horror film that slowly, but notably, loses its way as it goes on.
