 | RelicMovie Review "The Relic" (1997), directed by Peter Hyams, stands out as one of the most atmospheric creature features of the 90s. Adapted from the bestselling novel by Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, the film skillfully blends elements of science, superstition, and gothic horror. Set inside the labyrinthine halls of the Chicago Field Museum, the movie thrives on its claustrophobic atmosphere, where grand exhibitions and dark, deserted corridors become hunting grounds for something beyond human comprehension. The strength of "The Relic" lies in its ability to sustain tension: from the eerie discovery of a mysterious shipment from South... Read More |
 | BluebeardMovie Review Bluebeard (1972) – One Man, Seven Wives, and Way Too Much Fur Richard Burton is Bluebeard — and honestly, he doesn't seem too upset that every woman he marries ends up... let’s say, unavailable. Then again, when you’ve got a mustache this perfect and a wife collection that ranges from a sadomasochistic nun to a trapeze artist, the real crime is not turning it into a reality show. The film is a kind of gothic horror disguised as a 1970s fashion parade: lace, velvet, dramatic music, and more flashbacks than an entire season of Lost. The plot? He marries them, they ask questions, he gets annoyed... next! Burton... Read More |
 | The Autopsy of Jane DoeMovie Review The Autopsy of Jane Doe is a small gem of contemporary horror cinema, a film that manages to combine classic suspense with an intelligent use of the supernatural. Directed by Norwegian filmmaker André Øvredal, the film sits halfway between forensic thriller and occult nightmare, maintaining a claustrophobic and refined tension throughout most of its runtime. The story unfolds almost entirely in a morgue, where a father and son (Brian Cox and Emile Hirsch, both in top form) are tasked with examining the body of a young woman found mysteriously intact at a scene of brutal carnage. It is precisely the paradox between the... Read More |
 | Deep redMovie Review Dario Argento, with Deep Red, creates one of the cornerstones of the Italian giallo, a film that mixes thriller and horror with a visual and narrative mastery that is still unmatched today. It was March 7, 1975 when it arrived for the first time in Italian cinemas, the film consolidated the director's success and laid the foundations for his unmistakable style, made of saturated colors, bold shots and a tension that grows until the final explosion. |
 | Hush... Hush, sweet CharlotteMovie Review It was supposed to be the natural sequel to the cult film "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?", but Joan Crawford backed out, and Robert Aldrich, also a producer, chose Olivia de Havilland as a replacement, giving her a role far from her usual "women in distress". Once again based on a novel by Henry Farrell, the film does not reach the originality and impact of its predecessor, but it remains one of the best products born in the wake of that success. Not only for the remarkable performance of Bette Davis but also for the intricate plot, centered on the psychological duel between the protagonists, full of twists and with a well-... Read More |
 | Carnage ParkMovie Review Like his peer Quentin Tarantino, writer/director Michael Keating is famous for making films that are all about borrowing from the greats to create something truly unique. Carnage Park is definitely a good example of his fast-paced filmmaking style in action, but how does it stack up to his other work, and is it actually worth a spot on your running list of must-see films? Carnage Park can probably best be described as a horror film crossed with a crime thriller. In addition to being written and directed... Read More |
 | Amerikan HolokaustMovie Review From ICON film studios and www.THESLEAZEBOX.com comes a movie called Amerikan Holokaust which is one gory but goody you would like to find in the independent scene if you like gore style in your face gore, splatterhouse style insanity.

The two killers or as they think of themselves "patriots" the actors really nailed there personas to help convince you of there logic. With this unknown film amongst the mainstream this insane journey into... Read More |
 | 10 Cloverfield LaneMovie Review At the point when Cloverfield touched base on the extra large screen in 2008, nothing was thought about the J J Abrams-delivered beast film. No curve balls there: from the web fuelled tricks encompassing TV demonstrate Lost to the express lockdown on spoilers for Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens, Abrams delights in conjuring up secret and interest. Indeed, even by all accounts, be that as it may, new film 10 Cloverfield Lane was made under a cover of military-review mystery. Indeed, even the cast didn't comprehend what they were taping – it was given a distraction title – until shooting was under way.... Read More |
 | JudyMovie Review Let me start off this review by saying that I am not a fan of clowns. I don’t mean that in a “I flip out when I see them, they’re so scary” kind of way. I mean that I think they’re boring and overused. Thanks to Stephen Kings’ Pennywise (from It) and northern Illinois’ John Wayne Gacy, we’ve been inundated with clowns in our horror for the past thirty years, and every time it looks like they’re going away, they’re right back in our faces with the Insane Clown Posse and a flood of unoriginal, over-the-top clowns-as-killers horror films. It’s rare that any movie with clowns in it will leave a good impression on me anymore. And... Read More |
