Review by Quin I hear that Dustin Mills has quite the following. His 2013 film The Ballad of Skinless Pete (now called Skinless) received a glowing review at Brutal As Hell. While he’s only been a director for a relatively short time, I went into his latest feature, Kill That Bitch, cold. Cold because I had […]
Review by Ben Bussey You know – it’s entirely possible that, once True Blood ends, Stephen Moyer has a bright future ahead of him as an actor. The man clearly has skill; you can’t blag playing a leading role on a hugely popular TV show for upwards of five years. Well, okay, maybe you can, […]
Review by Quin If I had a million dollars to just give away, I would be asking you all to find me a review of the 2012 Swedish horror film Wither that does not mention a certain 80’s classic about a group of young people spending a weekend in a cabin. The person who finds […]
Review by Ben Bussey Ah… herein lies a tale. A few years back, when I met my esteemed BAH colleague Keri O’Shea for the first time in a face-to-face/actual human interaction capacity, the conversation perhaps unsurprisingly veered to our favourite horror movies. As memory serves, I waxed lyrical about The Monster Squad, and how my […]
Review by Stephanie Scaife I never know exactly what I think about Lars von Trier. On one hand he’s a master provocateur and prankster that you should never take too seriously, but on the other hand he is a truly unique filmmaker who gets away with making some of the toughest, most thought-provoking films you’re […]
Review by Ben Bussey Before anyone says it: no, this is not an all-star John Grisham adaptation, and at no point does Samuel L Jackson shout, “yes they deserved to die and I hope they burn in hell!” Having said that, Sam the Man’s famous quote from that 90s courtroom drama does have a certain […]
Review by Comix Nineties nostalgia is a huge right now. Hell, you can’t even walk down the street without some kid rocking a Power Rangers hoody while scooting around the Hammer dance and humming the theme song from the Rugrats, the whole time bouncing on moon shoes (or something , I don’t know). The point […]
Review by Ben Bussey Let’s start with the good news. It’s rare indeed that elderly actors and actresses get to be the focal point of modern films in general; let alone low budget comedy horrors. In setting the action in a retirement home and showing proceedings largely from the perspective of the residents, in particular […]
Review by Stephanie Scaife Alfred Sole has in more recent years carved out a career for himself as a production designer on US television. Although having just four feature film credits to his name as a director (including hardcore porn and a bizarre slasher film about a mounty), he certainly made a mark with Alice, […]
Review by Comix When historians hundreds of years from now look back on the 20th century, they will say that it was one of the most pivotal times in civilization. In a hundred years, we have driven faster, flown higher, and connected to each other more intensely than ever thought possible. We have also committed […]
Review by Quin There’s a movie from 1977 called The Van. If you’re interested, it’s available on youtube in its entirety. It isn’t a horror movie. It’s just a silly movie about teenage guys cruising around in a van looking for chicks. It’s truly awful, but even under the cloud of 70s cheese, you know […]
