FEARnet Movie Review: 'Big Bad Wolves'

We certainly don't get a whole lot of horror films from Israel, so when one called Rabies (aka Kalevet) hit the festival circuit a few years ago I made sure to give it a bit of a spotlight. Fortunately for all involved the debut film from Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado was a dark and novel little treat, one that had no problem combing its own tone and attitude with some obvious inspirations from American horror films of the 1980s. Now the duo has returned with another devious delicacy.

FEARnet Movie Review: '6 Souls'

The patently familiar new psycho thriller 6 Souls actually played film festivals back in 2010 under the title Shelter before collecting dust on a Weinstein shelf for a few years, only to pop up on VOD this week.

FEARnet Movie Review: 'S-VHS'

2012’s V/H/S hit the Sundance Film Festival with such gory success that it only makes sense that the guerilla team of next generation horror directors, writers, and producers would team up again and try to replicate it a year later.

FEARnet Movie Review: 'Jug Face'

With a title like Jug Face, you could get just about anything. Is it a satire? A basic slasher retread? A tale of haunted dishware? The good thing about an offbeat title is that it compels you to approach the film with a touch of caution and a dash of attentiveness

FEARnet Movie Review: 'Aftershock'

We don't get a whole lot of independently-produced disaster movies, and it's pretty simple to figure out why that's the case. Of all the action film sub-genres, the "disaster epic" is easily one of the most ambitious and expensive, and filmmakers like Irwin Allen and Roland Emmerich clearly need a whole lot of cash to deliver massive cinematic destruction on a huge scale.
