Cujo (1983) By Justin Decloux I wonder why it took me so long to watch CUJO. I love the Stephen King novel (having devoured it in high school), I adore director Lewis Teague's other monster film ALLIGATOR, and CUJO is held up as one of the most successful King...
The Hidden (1987)

The Canadian ‘American Nightmare’ (1983)
Ah, Canuxploitation - the result of an insanely lucrative (and exploitable) tax break that gave the world a pile of Canadian horror films. Most of them are shit. Some of them are gold. Quite a few of them tried their hardest to come off ass pure USA grade product....
Coming to Terms with The Legend of Zu (2001)
Legend of Zu was one of the first Hong Kong DVDs I ever bought. I got it from a tiny shop in Ottawa's China Town and forked over around $40 (two weeks worth of bag boy work!) to pay for the retail release. I'm not sure why that particular movie was the one that caught...
Resident Evil: The Final Chapter – Review
"You watched them all over again?" a number of friends asked this week. "Yes, I did" I would say sadly. "Why?" The idea of being a completest means nothing in this world. With so much stuff to absorb, being able to say "I did it all," rings like a broken bell in an...
Resident Evil: Retribution is Broken
Resident Evil: Retribution is not a film. It’s a broken video game, whose code has gone sour, crashing together in explosions of non-sequitur, desperate to excite. I like it. Like every film of the franchise the first fifteen are the strongest, with a straight lift...
