 | Prince of DarknessMovie Review John Carpenter is a master at transforming primal fears into unforgettable cinematic experiences, Prince of Darkness is one of his most disturbing and underrated films. With a mix of metaphysical horror, science fiction and paranoia, the director drags us into a nightmare that defies logic and faith, playing with the concept of absolute evil and the fragility of human perception. Carpenter creates a claustrophobic and unhealthy atmosphere, in which the tension grows inexorably. The masterful use of shots and the soundtrack – composed by Carpenter himself – contribute to creating a sense of constant menace. The dark... Read More |
 | 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...

 | Strait-JacketMovie Review The film we are talking about is based on a story by the writer Robert Bloch, author of the famous horror masterpiece Psycho, a name that immediately evokes shivers and uneasiness. This film, however, is not supported by a particularly complex plot or by special effects that lift the skin, but rather by the extraordinary talent of the leading actress, Joan Crawford. In one of her last performances, Crawford stands as a central and dominant figure, a colossus of emotions that manages to convey to the viewer every single thrill, every anguish, every delirium that pervades her tormented spirit. She is, in fact, the true... Read More |
 | NosferatuMovie Review A Gothic Masterpiece of Terror by Robert Eggers With "Nosferatu", Robert Eggers delivers a visually and narratively hypnotic film, capable of revisiting the iconic vampire myth with stylistic elegance and rare emotional intensity in contemporary cinema. The director, already acclaimed for The Witch and The Lighthouse, once again proves his talent for creating dense, disturbing, and magnetic atmospheres. Bill Skarsgård is simply terrifying as Count Orlok, a character who embodies the essence of horror without the need for excess. His screen presence is as haunting as it is tragic, and stands out as one of the most... Read More |
 | Halloween EndsMovie Review The film closes the David Gordon Green trilogy that began in 2018 and continued in 2021 with Halloween Kills, it is branded Blumhouse and this should be the last chapter (but will it really be like that we all wonder) of the saga that began in 1978 by John Carpenter. The era of Michael Myers ends, the most irrepressible killer in the history of horror cinema ever, mentor of every bloodthirsty masked homicidal maniac who came after him. There is certainly the intent to pay homage to the dark atmospheres of the progenitor film but also the desire to surprise, by inserting an absolutely new bad guy to act as a sidekick to good old...

 | Pet SemataryMovie Review Whether you’re the type of person who loves remakes or simply the type who loves to hate them, it’s highly likely that 2019’s Pet Sematary is on your radar for one reason or another if you’re into horror. It’s directed by Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer (who also directed Starry Eyes) and is, of course, a reboot of the classic Stephen King film... Read More |
 | The MegMovie Review Naturally, no summer would be complete without a glossy, action-packed blockbuster or two for the theater goers among us to gasp over, right? Creature feature fans, not to mention people that have been patiently waiting decades for the next Jaws, have been especially excited for the recent premiere of The Meg. But is The Meg really worth your hard-earned cash and limited spare time or is it more likely to leave you feeling all wet? The Meg stars everyone’s favorite antihero, Jason Statham (The Fate of the Furious,... Read More |
 | Slender ManMovie Review When Sony Pictures first dropped the news that it would be making a horror film based on the online legend of the Slender Man, fans of the original creepypasta story were excited. Others, however, saw the movie as a tasteless attempt to cash in on the Slender Man-related Wisconsin attempted murder detailed in last year’s HBO documentary, Beware the Slenderman. (The film is, in fact, banned in Wisconsin where the crimes took place.) Whichever camp you’re personally a part of, if you’re a fan of horror movies, the chances are pretty good that you’re at least... Read More |

 | alberto gelmiInterview Alberto Gelmi is a young director from Turin, passionate about horror cinema since childhood. His connection with film began through collecting home videos and constantly seeking out rare and underground titles, which from the very start fueled his curiosity for the most extreme and independent forms of the seventh art. At 23, he enrolled in a small film academy in Milan, where he began experimenting with the camera and developing his own visual language. He completed his studies by presenting New Entry, a short film inspired by the world of fashion — an environment in which he had worked as a videomaker during those years —... Read More |
