Necronomicon (1993)
Feb 13, 2009H.P. Lovecraft Anthology
Anthology of three H.P. Lovecraft tales from directors Christophe Gans, Brian Yuzna and Shusuke Kaneko. For claiming such a quintessentially Lovecraftian title as this, you feel that it should have been more than it is
Warlock: The End of Innocence (1999)
Sep 8, 2000Demonic Envoy
Third and final of the Warlock films where Julian Sands is replaced by Bruce Payne
Dungeons & Dragons (2000)
Dec 8, 2000Sword and Sorcery

Highlander: Endgame (2000)
Sep 3, 2000Immortal Combat

One Point 0 (2004)
Dec 31, 2004Strange Apartment Neighbours/Reality Blurrings and Paranoia
This travels into very similar places to Roman Polanski’s The Tenant – a paranoid tale about a man surrounded by very strange apartment neighbours. Apart from adding some reality blurring SF twists to the mix, this does little more than churn cliches
Re-Kill (2015)
Jun 27, 2016Zombie Hunters Mock Reality TV Show
The zombie film has become creatively exhausted of recent – this is one original treatment, mocked up as a reality tv show like Cops, following soldiers into infestation zones, all interspersed with a series of witty commercials
The Rizen (2017)
May 20, 2021Labyrinth of Lovecraftian Horrors
Amnesiac persons wake up in a bunker filled with monstrosities. Sort of H.P. Lovecraft served up as a low-budget variant on Resident Evil
