She just needs to fuck off and then fuck off again.

A ★★★★★ review of Wolf Man (2025) A stern, regimental father takes his young son into the Oregon wilderness to hunt. The views are truly breathtaking…but danger and threat lurks menacingly amongst the beautiful flora and fauna.  Natur...

Same, so much fun

A ★★★★ review of Trick or Treat (1986) During the early 1980s - with Western civilisation in horrible moral decline - righteous crusaders and church groups had found a new target for their pious ire; heavy metal Rather like video nasties i...

‘This is a bona fide time capsule of delights, particularly if you’re a fan of the music…’ #horror #horrormovies #Halloween 💀🎃👻

It looks beautiful

A ★★ review of Scarecrows (1988) A decent B-Movie concept is clumsily executed in Scarecrows - a reasonably fun slice of slasher/horror fare if you keep your alcohol levels up and your expectations low. Really low. Shot in 1985 but s...

‘despite that intriguing VHS cover from back in the day, this delivers on only a fraction of its potential…’ #horror #horrormovies #Halloween 👻🎃💀

Where is it available?

Better than the Assembly Cut?

A ★★★★★ review of The Evil Dead (1981) A triumph of low budget, guerilla determination, with more invention, energy and genre ferocity than any of its peers, The Evil Dead is a gruelling, exhilarating original in every sense of the word.  ...

‘thick with lurking threat, there are heaps of scary moments and the logic is demented and cruel…’ #horror #horrormovies #Halloween 👻🎃💀

A ★★★★ review of The Devil's Candy (2015) The Amityville Horror doesn’t just meet The Picture Of Dorian Grey, they hook up and rock out together at a Metallica concert. And that’s The Devil’s Candy; a gnarly tale of demonic possession that hi...

‘the real horror here comes from the fragility of the family dynamic…’ #horror #horrormovies #halloween 👻🎃💀

A ★★★★ review of Haunt (2019) A tripwire tale of your childhood trauma dictating every move in adulthood, Haunt is a rollicking horror yarn in The Funhouse mould.  Rather like Tobe Hooper’s under appreciated carnival of horrors, H...

‘goes for simmering unease rather than jolts and jump scares…and it succeeds with grisly aplomb’ #halloween #horror #horrormovies 🎃👻💀 boxd.it/bem9mX

To the interest of precisely no one and to appease nothing but my own monstrous ego, I will be posting an absolute fuck tonne of my Letterboxd horror movie reviews this month - some new, some old, all incredibly long and helpful if you suffer from insomnia. Happy October 🧡🎃 👻

A ★★★ review of Dangerous Animals (2025) A reasonably entertaining trawl through murky waters, Dangerous Animals is serviceable survivalist hokum with an eye-catching turn from Jai Courtney as a salty, psycho sea dog. Narratively speaking I ...

Perfectly cast and delivered over and above the call of duty despite precious little screen time…RIP

A ★★★★★ review of Night Moves (1975) A haunting, revisionist neo-noir that boldly asserts Hitchcock’s own ‘mystery as MacGuffin’ narrative, Night Moves was tailor made for the decade of disillusionment. Featuring a consummate performance...

‘As a meditation on personal failure Night Moves sinks to quite unfathomable depths…’

I adore Fletch more than life itself…

Mine hasn’t changed in 20 years…it shows I love a laugh whilst always mindful of the impending apocalypse

A ★★★★ review of The Ugly Stepsister (2025) A great companion piece to The Substance, The Ugly Stepsister is a grotesque satire of the female aesthetic fused with some horribly visceral body horror. Themes of transformation, oppression and jeal...

‘a grotesque satire of the female aesthetic fused with some horribly visceral body horror…’

Superb stuff

Yes. But hopefully without the allegations of misconduct behind the scenes…

They will likely be arduous and dull 😄

Hopefully watching this week…

Look beyond the Hollywood uplift and 28 Weeks Later (2007) is an exciting sequel that improves thematically upon its forebear. The uncertainty of aftermath, military overreach and motifs of self-preservation see it mature like a fine wine. And that intro is one for the ages ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The most striking thing about 28 Days Later (2002) remains those stunning early scenes of a desolate London hellscape devoid of humanity. After that it descends into exciting, blood-pumping emptiness accompanied by music so damn good that you forget how daft it all is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
