feature: The Woman in Black – YouTube Ghost Story competition

A while ago, I did a clips and trailers post for The Woman in Black. It looks like a good old fashioned ghost story and I’m very much looking forward to it, I honestly thought that teaser trailer was one of the scariest things I’ve seen in a long time. I’m a big horror fan [...]

Kate Beckinsale is back in her PVC catsuit, corset and leather jacket for the fourth installment of the Underworld series, Underworld: Awakening. Actually, I didn’t know she had gone, I checked out of this franchise after the first film. Not that I’d hated it or anything. As far as I recall. I think it was [...]

review: Black Swan (2010)

So… my first review of 2012 is a film that was probably one of the first films I saw in 2011… As it so happens it’s also turned out to be one of my top films of 2011. How’s about that. I’ll be doing a post on my 2011 top films soon enough but for [...]

Yes yes, it’s that time of year again. Time for the annual IFI Horrorthon Film Festival! As big a horror fan I am, last year was actually the first time I went along to it. Pretty poor showing from me considering this is its 14th year. For the 2010 festival I did a little post [...]

Strange, strange, strange. I have to admit, I wasn’t expecting to like Red State. I liked the trailer but I’m not particularly a fan of Kevin Smith; I can still smell Cop Out from here… then again, I did really like Zack and Miri Make a Porno and I thought Chasing Amy was kind of [...]

Anyone who’s been reading afr or following us on twitter will know that… I’m a big fan of horror films. I dunno why really, they aren’t my favourite films. It’s not the most consistent of genres and, oftentimes, it’s not the most taxing on the brain… but I guess I just feel like, you know [...]

Have you ever watched a film and thought; I’ve seen this all before? Have you ever watched a film which tells you; You’ve seen this all before? Have you ever watched a film which tells you; You’ve seen this all before, in the films that came before this one in the series? Does that sound [...]

As you may or may not have noticed, I have been injected with a spurt of effort for the website lately. The new Clips and trailers section of the website seems to be taking shape and I’ve even managed to write some reviews lately. Unfortunately the “Releasing this week” segment has fallen by the wayside [...]

clips and trailers: Insidious (2011)

This is probably more what you’d expect from me… as compared to my post on Honey 2 earlier. What can I say? I’m working on expanding the site. And I really do like watching dance battles. Anywhoo… Insidious is the latest film from the team behind the first three Saw films. You remember, the good [...]

If you haven’t heard of A Serbian Film by now then… you probably don’t want to. Just, you know, go and look at another review. Might I suggest this one perhaps? Ok, ok, I’ll tell you what it is. A Serbian Film is probably the most notorious film you’ve never heard of. Well actually, you [...]
