![]() | 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...

![]() | Lord of MisruleMovie Review Bland horror that mixes paganism, thriller and folklore of British popular traditions. The story recalls the 1973 film "The Wicker Man" with Christopher Lee |
![]() | 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 |
![]() | What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?Movie Review Based on the novel by Henry Farrell released in 1960, the film is considered the progenitor of the psycho-biddy subgenre where the protagonists are mentally unstable elderly women, ready to terrorize the unfortunate ones on duty. Playing the disturbing sisters in this psychological thriller, a small jewel of genre cinema, are an unforgettable Bette Davis and Joan Crawford, great Hollywood stars now in their twilight years. Despite being free of bloody or macabre scenes, the film is a hallucinatory journey through sadism, madness and family resentments... Claustrophobic, having shot in black and white makes the face of the great... Read More |
![]() | Goodnight MommyMovie Review A psychological thriller with horror nuances, a remake of a 2014 Austrian film described as disturbing and highly praised by critics. Hidden behind a mask, we find the always good Naomi Watts, here also a producer, in the role of a mother who whispers a horror lullaby in the ears of her children... to tell us that very, too often the monster lives within the walls of the home and in the people closest to us. Compared to the original film, there is much less ferocity and cruelty, but it is still a good film of tension and mystery. The dream sequences are particularly suggestive. |
![]() | The Invisible ManMovie Review The latest adaptation, a great success, of the famous novel of the same name written in 1897 by H. G. Wells. Adapted to our days to talk about stalking... And to immerse us in the furious and anguished fight of a woman, played to perfection by Elisabeth Moss, against her tormentor. It is likely that the female audience may feel disturbed by the vision, as it happened to me, and want to change the channel, but don't do it! The film is worth it in every sense, suggestive photography and excellent direction (Whannell is best known for having created the thriller-horror saga Saw with James Wan) and above all repeated twists. Not to... Read More |
![]() | Gretel & HanselMovie Review Anyone familiar with the original versions of classic fairy tales like “Hansel and Gretel” already knows that they have lots of horror movie potential. As a rule though, most attempts to capture these tales on film tend to miss the mark. It’s clear from the conspicuous reversal of the titular names that Gretel & Hansel hopes to distinguish itself from the rest of the pack right from the get-go, but does it actually do the job, or are you better off spending 90 minutes of your time on some other film? ...

![]() | Dead AwakeMovie Review Whether you’ve personally experienced it or simply heard your share of other people’s horror |
![]() | Hereditary - Evil runs in the familyMovie Review “Hereditary” is a literally "homemade" horror. The physical home, as a place of family life and as creative microcosm of Annie, and the metaphysical home, as a dreamlike symbol of the stability or instability of the Ego, are inextricably intertwined in a game of Chinese boxes : a husband , a son, a daughter, and a miniaturist job she loves. But also a bulky mother: Ellen. Annie has always been trying to fix her "home": and soon we realize that something, in addition to the ambivalent relationship between her and the now defunct Ellen, does not work. Starting from Charlie, an... 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 |
