Creepshow III (2006)
Dec 21, 2011Horror Anthology
A third entry in the Creepshow series but made without the involvement of George Romero (or Stephen King). This tries to give more of the same but is abysmally made on all counts
A.J. Bowen
The Signal (2007)
Jul 29, 2007Mass Insanity
Excellent variant on The Crazies as a mysterious signal causes an outbreak of mass insanity. Told in terms of three intersecting stories each of which is made by a different director
The House of the Devil (2009)
Jan 17, 2010Occult Sacrifice
The film that started to get attention for Ti West as a director, a slow burn work where Jocelin Donahue is hired for a babysitting job only to find sinister things going on when she arrives at the house
Hatchet II (2010)
May 15, 2014Slasher Film Homage
Hatchet was a homage to the 1980s slasher film that had a mild amusement. In the sequels, Adam Green upped the number of genre cameos and in-jokes, while pushing the gore effects to an extreme
A Horrible Way to Die (2010)
May 7, 2019Serial Killer
Adam Wingard has been a director on the rise in the last few years, although his films often feel as though they could have been more than they are. This mumblecore serial killer film is his most satisfying and fully achieved work so far
You’re Next (2011)
Aug 24, 2013Home Invasion Thriller
Adam Wingard directs a home invasion thriller in a similar vein to The Strangers. This is a film that strips everything extraneous away and simply lets Wingard go for broke and give the audience a brutal and intense workout – at which you cannot deny he succeeds most satisfyingly
Chillerama (2011)
Jun 23, 2012Horror Parody Anthology/Drive-In Homage
In the same vein as Grindhouse, four filmmakers have come together to make an anthology of spoof horror films that homage the drive-in tradition. Good taste is left well behind and the results are both outrageous and funny
The Sacrament (2013)
Oct 31, 2014Sinister Cult/Found Footage
Ti West, a rising name in horror in the last few years, makes a film about the activities of a sinister cult. Soon into the film, you realise that he is actually conducting a modern Found Footage retelling of the infamous Jonestown mass suicide of the 1970s
The Reconstruction of William Zero (2014)
Aug 7, 2024Cloning Film
A low key but modestly effective film where an amnesiac man comes to the gradual realisation that he is a clone
Synchronicity (2015)
Jul 15, 2016Time Paradox
An ambitious film reminiscent of Twelve Monkeys, this has a time traveller venturing into the past and a conceptual jigsaw as he intersects with and has to hide in the margins of events in his own timeline
Satanic Panic (2019)
Jan 3, 2021Virgin Pursued by Devil Worshippers Comedy
Rather funny comedy about Satanists and a virginal pizza girl who is chased as their intended victim. This comes with a bizarrely akilter sense of humour that reminds of Martin Scorsese’s After Hours
I Trapped the Devil (2019)
Mar 9, 2021Man Claims to Have The Devil Locked in His Cellar
Low-budget film that absorbs you in an intensive headspace as family members visit a reclusive brother who claims to have The Devil locked in the cellar
