![]() | High-RiseMovie Review The Dark Side of Progress Directed by Ben Wheatley and based on the visionary novel by J.G. Ballard, High-Rise is a disturbing descent into urban anarchy and human madness, disguised as architectural progress. Behind the brutalist façade of the high-rise – a symbol of modernity and luxury – lies a horror story masked as social satire. A disturbing, claustrophobic atmosphere From the very beginning, the film conveys a constant sense of unease. The closed-off setting of the tower, with its oppressive architecture, contributes to a lingering discomfort. Each floor represents a social class, and the higher you... Read More |

![]() | Carnival of SoulsMovie Review Carnival of Souls is a small miracle of American independent cinema. Shot on a shoestring budget and initially released to little success, it has since become a cult classic, revered by filmmakers, critics, and cinephiles alike. This unsettling film blends horror, experimental cinema, and a philosophical meditation on life and death. One of Carnival of Souls' most remarkable elements is its atmosphere. Drawing inspiration from German Expressionist cinema and the work of directors like Ingmar Bergman, Herk Harvey creates a ghostly world where the line between reality and the surreal is constantly blurred. Maurice Prather’s... Read More |
![]() | Drag Me to HellMovie Review A grotesque descent into moral abyss disguised as supernatural horror. Drag Me to Hell is not just a horror film: it's a cruel parable about judgment and guilt wearing the grotesque mask of a curse. Sam Raimi, with his unmistakable blend of the absurd and the disturbing, crafts a work that crawls under your skin—not because of its demons, but because of the unsettling doubt it leaves behind: how much evil can a good person do to get what they want? The film walks a fine line between genuine terror and deliberately exaggerated farce. The special effects, intentionally old-school at times, harken back to the cult... Read More |
![]() | ThirstMovie Review Thirst, directed by the South Korean master Park Chan-wook, is a bold and disturbing cinematic work that blends existential drama with gothic horror in a visually striking and morally complex way. Loosely inspired by Émile Zola's novel Thérèse Raquin, the film reinterprets the original story with a decidedly modern and subversive erotic and spiritual charge. Park Chan-wook masterfully uses cinematic language: elegant framing, hypnotic use of color, and violent contrasts between the sacred and the profane. The direction is refined, never indulgent. Blood—a recurring element—is never gratuitous, but takes on symbolic... Read More |
![]() | Jacob's LadderMovie Review A disturbing and deeply unsettling film, Jacob's Ladder is a slow and anguishing descent into the depths of the human psyche. Directed with a sure hand by Adrian Lyne, the film seamlessly blends psychological horror with existential drama, leaving the viewer in a constant state of disorientation. Tim Robbins delivers one of his most intense performances as Jacob Singer, a Vietnam veteran tormented by surreal visions and fragmented memories. The line between reality and hallucination dissolves from the very first scenes, and the film never offers a moment of respite, guiding the viewer through claustrophobic corridors,... Read More |
![]() | The ChurchMovie Review The Church is a refined example of late 1980s Italian horror that masterfully blends gothic atmosphere, religious symbolism, and dreamlike visions into a hypnotic and unsettling cinematic experience. Directed by Michele Soavi, a protégé and collaborator of Dario Argento, the film showcases surprising stylistic maturity and marks a significant evolution of the genre beyond the traditional giallo/horror framework. The plot centers around a cathedral built atop a medieval mass grave of heretics, and the ancient evil buried beneath its foundations, waiting to be unleashed. But The Church is much more than a simple story of... Read More |
![]() | The babyMovie Review From the first shots of “The Baby” you can feel a whisper of madness, as if the camera were peering through a crack in the soul. The corridor to the nursery is lit by an unnaturally warm light, but at the center is him: a man trapped in a grotesque baby suit, crying a strangled and inarticulate moan, clinging to wooden bars like an anchor of despair. The protagonist, Ann (Anjanette Comer), is dragged into this ghostly asylum of horrors with the lightness of a breeze, but here her smile cracks. The walls, covered in peeling wallpaper, seem to pulsate with visionary memories: muffled voices, ghostly laughter, the cries of... 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 |
