“Horror” Reviews

Wicked City tells a compelling story with style to spare, but its body horror and sexual violence is probably too much for most viewers (myself included).

In this Image Comics series, every conspiracy theory is real… or has the potential to become real.

This twisted tale involving young orphans is one of the most suspenseful anime series I’ve seen in quite some time.

While frequently billed as a horror movie, that term actually undersells this movie.

A simply brilliant adaptation of one of the most classic horror stories of all time.

The latest from Wit Studio and Tetsurō Araki is a gruesome, action-packed series featuring human-devouring monsters and steampunk samurai.

At its best, Attack on Titan is a gripping series… though not necessarily one I’d want to watch right after eating dinner.

Kim packs “A Tale of Two Sisters” with atmosphere and tension to spare.

It’s almost subversive at the same time, the way it blends such solid characters with plenty of gore and some wicked humor.

A compellingly ambiguous morality play that is Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s unquestioned master work.

A thoroughly bizarre, Jungian excursion that would make David Lynch blush at the straightforwardness of his own films.

There are certain things in this movie that I’ll never get out of my head.

With Dark Water, Nakata has delivered everything you could ask from a horror movie plus a little more.

An excuse for the filmmakers to whip around some esoteric math concepts with little regard for plot, continuity, or logic.

The film’s stunning cinematography, editing, and direction, combined with outstanding effects, ensure that it always remains riveting.

In the end, Wild Zero is filled with lots of ambition, excess, and energy that gets a little ahead of itself at times.

A hugely disappointing as a follow up to Versus.

This is a far, far better film than any avowed “B” flick has the right to be.

Most would dismiss “Versus” as mindless action or sickening gore, and that may very well be the case. Actually, that is the case.
