Jake West is quickly becoming one of my favorite British” horrody” directors (that’s a word I made up for horror comedies, do you think it will stick?). My love affair began when I saw Evil Aliens (review forthcoming) and has now been cemented by his latest offering Doghouse. Where Evil Aliens was a splatterific...

Infestation is the latest contestant in the game of horror and comedy hybrid films. While this isn’t a particularly new niche, I feel it would be safe to say that sometime in the mid early to mid 00’s, around the same time Shaun of the Dead began slaying audiences, there has been new life...

Night of the Creeps (or just Creeps for short) straddles the line between what I feel is too popular to review, and what is under the radar enough to write about. If you haven’t noticed, I rarely write anything about movies that already have established a strong set of fair and thorough reviews online. ...

Genre jumping is a tough nut to crack, rife with just as much risk as it is potential reward. No where has this been attempted more then in the genres horror and science fiction. We’ve seen Zombies who double as martial arts specialists, Vampires and werewolves used as allegories for political and social issues...

Master of the Universe (MOTU for short) is a movie I remember fondly from my childhood. It was the kind of film you would see played on TBS and WB channels on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, usually buried in a marathon of similarly-themed sci-fi epics. So you can imagine the delight I found...

Bandh Darwaza is hard to describe. It’s part Hammer House of Horror, part comedy.
