The Fortunes of Olivia Richmond
Like the very best gothics, this story keeps you reading fervently to the very end, with plot twists to keep you up late into the night.
Inherit the Witch
For a few rare moments it all comes together for something approaching chilling, but the finished results are lacking.
England On Fire
A enchanted wonderland to change the way you see England, not for showing anything new, but what has been there all along.
The Sacred Spirit
Interesting and intense directorial choices find the sweet spot where absurdity, anxiety and satisfaction coexist in harmony.
A Dark Song
An astonishing and brave feature debut that marks director-writer Liam Gavin as one to watch. Highly recommended.
Starry Eyes
A powerful rumination on the cost of fame and the monstrous things people are prepared to do in order to obtain it.
The Quiet Ones
A script crying for a horror backbone is frustratingly weak for the most part, its tedious jump-scares no substitute.
The Devil Rides Out
As a classic tale of good versus evil, the film required a strong representative of either side, and does not disappoint.
The Devil’s Business
With a hell that breaks loose quietly, The Devil's Business metes its tension effectively to insidiously creepy result.
Seance: The Summoning
Despite the potentially ominous setting, this is a lethargic outing augmented by lifeless direction and a leaden script.
Wake Wood
With nicely subtle handling of its occult element, the film slowly builds an atmosphere and is more chilling as a result.
