Millennium Films
The 4th Floor (1999)
May 19, 2000Disturbed Apartment Neighbour
A thriller that develops quite a degree of eerie suspense as Juliette Lewis moves into a new apartment and finds she is surrounded by some very strange neighbours
Replicant (2001)
Sep 14, 2002Cloned Serial Killer
Halfway reasonable Jean-Claude Van Damme film in which he plays the clone of a serial killer who is brought to life in attempt to track down the original
Highwaymen (2004)
Feb 11, 2025Cat and Mouse Game with a Killer on the Backroads
Robert Harmon made the classic The Hitcher, but failed to ever follow up on it. This is the sole work that ever came close – a beautifully tense series of games between Jim Caviezel and a motorised killer on the backroads
Submerged (2005)
Mar 29, 2008Action Film/Mind Control
Steven Seagal submarine action where he tackles a terrorist who has perfected mind control techniques
Lonely Hearts (2006)
Jul 17, 2009True-Life Serial Killers
Film based on true-life killers Martha Beck and Raymond Fernandez who preyed on victims through the lonely hearts column. Directed by the investigating detective's grandson.
Wicked Little Things (2006)
Apr 19, 2009Zombie Children
Despite being pitched as a zombie film, this is more of a ghost story featuring undead children who were killed in a mine disaster. Director J.S. Cardone does well with the horror elements
The Wicker Man (2006)
Nov 18, 2007Pagan Religion
The 1973 version of The Wicker Man is a cult classic; this is one of the worst remakes of all time that gets nothing about the original right, blunts its themes about religion and tosses in crude shocks and killings
Day of the Dead (2008)
Oct 19, 2008Zombies
A remake of George Romero's third and most underrated zombie film, This came out as part of the 2000s revival of the genre but majorly miscalculates the original and emerges as wrong in just about every way
Conan the Barbarian (2011)
Sep 9, 2011Sword and Sorcery
This revival of Conan the Barbarian is a dismal effort that gets little of what made the character work, while Jason Momoa gives little impression he is taking proceedings seriously
Texas Chainsaw (2013)
Jan 11, 2013Backwoods Brutality
A Texas Chainsaw sequel in 3D with chainsaws and gore coming out at the screen seems the complete antithesis of the raw savagery of the original. The result is like a formulaic modern slasher, while the film is wrecked by a ridiculous reversal of sympathies in the last half
Automata (2014)
Oct 8, 2016Robots Develop Artificial Intelligence
This Blade Runner-influenced work about robots that develop artificial intelligence is exceptional, featuring a particularly captivating last half with Antonio Banderas journeying with strangely alive robots
Criminal (2016)
May 28, 2016Transplanted Memories/Action Film
Everything indicates this should have been a hit – an impressive star line-up, big polished action sequences – only it tanked. Much has been assembled in the service of a hackneyed idea where the memories of an FBI agent are implanted into criminal Kevin Costner
Leatherface (2017)
Oct 28, 2017Texas Chain Saw Massacre Origin Story
Supposedly a The Texas Chain Saw Massacre prequel that offers us a Leatherface origin story. The least Texas Chain Saw-like of the sequels and eventually a far cry from the original
Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Feb 5, 2018Zombies
One of a growing industry of zombie films that leech off the George Romero name. This remakes Romero's Day of the Dead, which means it cherry picks key elements and rearranges them in a different way but lacks everything else that Romero offered
