I love writing. There’s something cathartic and rewarding in getting words and thoughts down - even if no one ever reads it. And you can DM me a review request if you’re really bored 💙 boxd.it/1JfEF

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of Prince of Darkness (1987) boxd.it/50j8eN

Review of ‘Prince of Darkness’ (1987) ★★★★

Although hokey at times, John Carpenter’s mesmerising metaphysical tale moves at a wicked lick and features countless creepy moments amongst the mounting carnage. In many ways Prince Of Darkness is…

Tesco supermarket this afternoon. Got chatting to lovely cashier, im guessing in her 60s. Swiftly conversation moved to politics, the total incompetents running this destroyed bum hole of a country. Cupping her hand over her mouth and leaning towards me she said, " there is only one man capable of fixing this, Rupert Lowe." I fully concurred

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of The Frighteners (1996) boxd.it/7zKwRf

Review of ‘The Frighteners’ (1996) ★★★★

A ghostly, effects laden extravaganza which switches effortlessly from raucous and family-friendly one moment to sinister and subversive the next, The Frighteners is wickedly good fun.  Bridging the…

Review of ‘The House of the Devil’ (2009) ★★★★

Director Ti West plays the song and hears every single note of the music for House Of The Devil, an elegant, nuanced throwback to horror days of yore. Harnessing the narrative possibilities of its…

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of The ‘Burbs (1989) boxd.it/f3Kr5B

Review of ‘The 'Burbs’ (1989) ★★★★★

As a commentary on suburban paranoia and how it breeds all manner of xenophobic absurdity in its otherwise ordinary residents, The ’Burbs is a subversive delight. Director Joe Dante has always…

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of The Funhouse (1981) boxd.it/gBqnE7

Review of ‘The Funhouse’ (1981) ★★★★

If it’s shocks and thrills you’re looking for, The Funhouse is quite a ride; a potentially silly slasher movie, this sterling effort is elevated immeasurably by sheer craft.  Director Tobe Hooper…

There were tonnes of slashers before Halloween….it just refined the formula into a coherent cinematic language perfect for the many imitators that followed. Whatever you think of the film (and I think it’s a wonder of atmosphere and restraint) its influence is definitive.

Black Christmas (1974) invented the slasher four years before Halloween.

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️ review of Friday the 13th (1980) boxd.it/4Zae43

Review of ‘Friday the 13th’ (1980) ★★

Conceived to cash in on the phenomenal success of John Carpenter’s Halloween, Friday the 13th is a dreary, suspense-free slog through endlessly recycled slasher tropes.  Whilst it went on to launch…

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of Wendigo (2001) boxd.it/4W95m9

Review of ‘Wendigo’ (2001) ★★★★★

Wendigo is a wonderful horror film. A poetic, folksy coming-of-age yarn, it’s about the prickly terrors of adulthood as seen through the impressionable eyes of an anxious child. And just how much…

Opinión impopular: Glee puso muchas canciones en el radar con sus covers, pero la manera que saco del olvido GO YOU OWN WAY de Fleetwood Mac es historico.

Meghan Markle is getting more heat for being the daughter of an alleged paedophile than (Prince) Andrew got for actually being the alleged paedophile.

SHOCKTOBER! 🎃 #Horror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Halloween My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review of Evil Dead II (1987) boxd.it/52GUov

Review of ‘Evil Dead II’ (1987) ★★★★★

More of a rollicking ramshackle remix than a bona fide sequel, Evil Dead II is - true to legend - a complete riot. Owing more to The Three Stooges and The Marx Brothers than anything George Romero…

Embellishing history and adding lashings of sadism and suspense, director Michael Reeves absolutely nails the unsavoury tale of fabled witch hunter Matthew Hopkins. Weaponising belief, Hopkins (a…
