Babam! Welcome to Flavor Town where the currency is flavor and everyone is rich! And no, I’m not talking about some crappy vape town where the air is thick with cotton candy flavored clouds and backwards hats, but a REAL flavor town, you know, like with food. Well, unfortunately, this isn’t a real place, but […]
Whatever the situation was immediately following its release, no single horror film in history seems to have attracted such a proliferating amount of critical commentary as The Shining. And, few films have lent themselves to so much of what many lay viewers would see as frankly barmy analysis; okay, if you’ve ever watched a certain […]
For many of us, Kurt Russell will always be associated first and foremost with his run of cult classics in cahoots with director John Carpenter. Even so, in 2018 he remains an equally familiar face for contemporary audiences thanks to his high profile roles in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2, the last two Fast […]
We receive quite a lot of short films overall at the site, and it’s always fun seeing what kind of a calling-card filmmakers have on offer: better still is when films channel formative horror and nostalgia along the way, which is the case with She Came From The Woods (2017). We took a look at […]
There are times when you sit down with a low budget indie horror film knowing exactly what you’re going to get from the moment it begins, with no real surprises along the way to the end of the tedious hour and a half. Then, on the other hand, there are times when you sit down […]
It’s a very rare thing indeed to see a filmmaker working in the styles so far chosen by director Alex Bakshaev in his career to date. His last film, The Devil of Kreuzberg, was to my mind a languid and stylish love letter to Jean Rollin; in S&M, Les Sadiques, we have a film not […]
You ever catch your dog staring aggressively into a corner of your house or your cat batting around an invisible ball? Spoiler alert: you’ve got ghosts. Between you and your pet stands centuries of ghostly entities ready to rip you to shreds, if wasn’t for ol’ Rover keeping them in check. You may not believe […]
A fairly solid point about Rawhead Rex is made in the accompanying press release for Arrow’s new Blu-ray edition. It’s long been said that Clive Barker, who wrote the screenplay from his own short story for director George Pavlou, was so appalled with the resulting film – not to mention their earlier collaboration, Underworld (AKA […]
Can you believe zombies are still a thing? Walking Dead is currently on its eighth season, Fear of the Walking Dead just wrapped up its third, and while the theaters are finally free from the zombie apocalypse, plenty of small companies are still pumping out movies and games and god knows what else. So what […]
The 1990s may have been a boom period for the psychological thriller, but it’s debatable as to just how fitting a description that is to many of the films classed as such. In Hollywood, the bulk of them tended to be half-baked Silence of the Lambs knock-offs or sensationalised Hitchcock updates; in either case, the […]
We receive a lot of films for consideration at Warped Perspective, and on occasion, we receive material which seems to be quite a way outside of the usual styles and genres we typically feature. This is, of course, no bad thing, and a film we received recently marked itself out as something altogether quieter and […]
