Review of The Wolf Man (1941)

By Forrest K (119) on 11 Dec 2010

The Wolf man has a fun atmosphere, and it's a great classic creature, but the human element seems missing…

Review of House of Frankenstein (1944)

By Forrest K (119) on 28 Nov 2010

Some interesting scenes here and there. But it overall sucks. Though not as terrible as House of Dracula…

Review of The Brides of Dracula (1960)

By Forrest K (119) on 26 Nov 2010

Brides of Dracula lacks the titular villain, as well as the iconic presence of Christopher Lee, but David Peel makes up for it with sheer manic…

Review of Lust for a Vampire (1971)

By Forrest K (119) on 26 Nov 2010

This second film in Hammer's Karnstein trilogy develops the vampire metaphor in yet more ambiguous ways, showing how the tyrannical hatred…

Review of Hard Boiled (1992)

By Forrest K (119) on 26 Nov 2010

Hard Boiled violates nearly all of my aesthetic instincts: gratuitous slo-mo and speed ramps, style entirely over substance, paper-thin characters…

Review of The Asphalt Jungle (1950)

By Forrest K (119) on 07 Nov 2010

Tense, nail-biting noir with a great, nuanced performace from Sterling Hayden. John Huston is the boss, hands down…

Review of The Vampire Lovers (1970)

By Forrest K (119) on 23 Oct 2010

Hammer Films of the 70s retained their gothic roots while embracing the boundary-pushing exploitation cinema aesthetic - and thus, the first…

Review of Swamp Thing (1982)

By Forrest K (119) on 16 Oct 2010

While it has some small late night Made-for-TV charm, Swamp Thing appropriates none of the campy fun of B-movie monsters and is mostly dull…

Review of The Last House on the Left (1972)

By Forrest K (119) on 16 Oct 2010

Wes Craven's debut doesn't do itself any favors by adapting The Virgin Spring, Bergman's unflinching exploration of the darkness of the human…

Review of The Serpent and the Rainbow (1988)

Review of Greenberg (2010)

By Forrest K (119) on 25 Sep 2010

A challenging, thoughtful character study. Stiller takes a huge risk in playing the almost entirely unlikable Greenberg, and it pays off…

Review of The Postman Always Rings Twice (1946)

By Forrest K (119) on 23 Jun 2010
