The full German title of this psycho-sexadelic horror freakout translates as Lesbian Vampires: The Heiress of Dracula. Director Jesus Jess Franco, arguably the most prolific European director ever, constantly revisited the genre of vampirism.

The Funhouse (1981) is a relatively innocuous ride, but it has potential. I can see this being remade with greater measures of oomph! eeek! and boo-yah! There is a lot of scary fun to be had at the carnival, and although director Tobe Hooper claims...

This is a music video by Sam Sorensen for his amazing composition, his Beowulf orchestral pieces. What's extraordinary is that he synthesized every instrument in his own home. You've got to listen to this music. Also, the...

Tobe Hoopers Eaten Alive (1977) is a strange brew. Desperately trashy, yet undeniably eerie, it lingers in the mind for days after viewing, like the mood of a creepy dream.

Tis peculiar the way ones appreciation for art changes as you get older. Some things you liked immensely when you were younger you can no longer tolerate, while other things you didnt have time for when you were young, as an older person you now see...

Yes, its about time I reviewed this seminal piece of modern horror. Along with Night of the Living Dead (1968) and The Exorcist (1973), The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974) cemented the new hardcore style of filmmaking in the horror genre.

Bit of a mixed bag this post. Yes, Ill admit there are some ripe ones, including a poster to my very first Pleasure of Nightmares movie review which I thought was very disappointing.

Cinema Three is supposed to be some place for me to vent about how much I hate or like movies. However, no matter how hard I try there's something genuine, a little spark if you will, about true unabashed illogical hate.

I have not watched one really good movie about the idea that heaven is having a war, either with hell or within itself, and The Prophecy (1995) is no exception.
The problem with movies that deal with angels is that they tend to aim for...

Finally getting a DVD release down under in a few months, writerdirector Gla Babluanis stark and brutal thriller 13 (2005). Tzameti is Georgian for 13, which is the directors nationality), and it's a superbly-etched nightmare that spells deep...

In 1931, Fritz Lang's "M" told the story of a mentally disturbed killer, a murderer of children. The movie was so powerful and evocative that, according to Wikipedia, Peter Lorre, who plays the murderer, was typecast for years.

Every great villain has a great origin story. People evolve personalities based upon their experiences throughout their lives, so an origin story tries to answer the question: what could have possibly happened to make someone so diabolically...

Director Wes Craven - a wildly uneven filmmaker if ever there was one had made two notorious low-budget shockers (both of them over-rated in my books, despite their cult followings), Last House on the Left (1972) and The Hills Have Eyes (1977),...

Im not sure if the above photo is an artistic installation, but it looks like one, so Ive included it as my window display. Ive got a thing for crocodiles (or is that an alligator?) and the derriere and long legs of the female kind.

Bernard Roses classic Candyman is one of my favourite horror films of all time, retaining such a strong sense of nostalgic association that I can easily overlook its few flaws. Its become something of a cult favourite since its release back in 1992...

I didnt get to see many short films at the 55th Sydney Film Festival this year, partly because I ended up seeing a lot of screeners (DVDs for media use), and also most of the films I saw on the big screen werent accompanied by a short. Festivals are...

The Happening weds a great premise to the worst script M. Night Shyamalan has ever written. Worse than The Village, which is actually fairly intriguing until the third act. Worse than Lady in the Water, which was at least an original...

In a kneecap er, I mean nutshell: wealthy middle-class family, Ann (Naomi Watts), husband George (Tim Roth) and young son Georgie (Devon Gearhart), arrive at their Long Island holiday home (which rather oddly doesnt have a landline). Whilst George...

In a perfect world nobody but Frank Darabont would bring Stephen King works to the screen. There's a symbiotic relationship between these two creators that translates to great films, and viewers can only benefit from its continuation. Darabont...
