If you thought moving was stressful, wait until you see what happens when Roger Cobb opens the door of his house in House!

![]() | 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 |
![]() | PresenciasMovie Review Presencias is a supernatural thriller that blends classic gothic aesthetics with a modern, psychologically unsettling narrative. Set in an isolated house deep in the woods, the film plays on the duality between what is seen and what is hidden—aptly hinted at by the striking poster, where a mirrored image reveals the disturbing element: an upside-down figure, symbolizing a world turned inside out, where reality loses all certainty. Luis Mandoki’s direction—known for his emotionally resonant touch even in tense dramas—serves the tone of psychological horror well here, with an atmosphere thick with suspense and a haunting...

![]() | The Little Girl Who Lives Down the LaneMovie Review The film is a psychological thriller that explores themes of isolation, loneliness, and the fragility of childhood. Jodie Foster's performance is exceptional, and her chemistry with Martin Sheen is palpable.

![]() | From Beyond the GraveMovie Review From Beyond the Grave - The Film That Will Make You Rethink Shopping at Thrift Stores Have you ever thought about buying a vintage item and worrying that it might be cursed? No? Well, after watching From Beyond the Grave, you might start thinking twice before haggling with an antique dealer who looks as sinister as Peter Cushing. This little gem of British horror takes us through an anthology of tales that feel like episodes of The Twilight Zone, but with that unmistakable ‘70s touch—questionable fashion choices, homemade special effects, and actors delivering performances with the enthusiasm of someone paying off...

![]() | Ghost StoriesMovie Review Ghost Stories is a British psychological horror film adapted from their play of the same name. The film stands out for its disturbing atmosphere, layered narrative and a surprising ending that overturns the viewer's expectations. Dyson and Nyman build a horror that relies more on psychological tension than gratuitous jump scares. The use of lighting, sound and distressing shots contribute to creating a sense of growing unease. Each story has its own visual identity and a different narrative style, reflecting the personal fears of the protagonists. Andy Nyman offers an intense and engaging interpretation, making...

![]() | SchockMovie Review The latest cinematic chapter of the Italian master Mario Bava, Shock, presents itself as a farewell to his directorial career, emerging from a decade marked by a rebirth of Italian cinema imbued with anger, ambiguity and a fascination for the macabre. The film, a cross between giallo, thriller and horror, is a testimony to that essential contribution of Bava, which had already inspired entire generations of directors. In this work, however, one senses the loss of that personal imprint: the meticulousness in the photography, a distinctive sign that had made the director famous, as well as that bitter irony capable of...

![]() | RepulsionMovie Review The film is a thriller full of tension, especially in the scenes where the protagonist experiences hallucinations. The horror atmosphere, with a touch of surrealism, is really intense. Although it may seem crude, this is intended by the director, who wants to show the harsh reality of the protagonist's life. The story tells of a woman in crisis, who no longer feels comfortable with the old values of society. This leads her to confront a harsh and chauvinistic reality, where she feels the weight of being a woman. The protagonist is alienated and desperate, aware that the world is changing, but remains tied to traditional values.... Read More |
![]() | Don't Look NowMovie Review A suggestive and deeply layered reinterpretation of a universal fairy tale like Little Red Riding Hood, which finds in its protagonists, Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie, two extraordinary interpreters. However, the director eludes any predefined scheme, escapes conventions and leads the viewer on a labyrinthine, almost subliminal path. What on the surface seems like a parapsychological horror, complete with a hunt for a serial killer, actually turns out to be a work of extraordinary complexity: an investigation into the reworking of grief within a couple, into the tension between faith and rationality, into the unfathomable...

![]() | 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 |
