Feb 1, 2001Demonic Possession
One will go out on a limb and argue that William Peter Blatty’s sequel is actually a far superior work to the original The Exorcist, one that substitutes a literate theological detective story for barf bag theatrics and contains at least one real out there jump

May 21, 2001Comic-Book Adaptation/Future Law Enforcement Officer
The film adaptation of the cult comic-book gets everything wrong. The designs and costumes look great but the film misses the comic's satiric sense of humour and simply becomes a thudding Sylvester Stallone action vehicle

Mar 28, 2013Slasher Parody/Mockumentary
What starts out as a seeming mockumentary about a serial killer turns into an hilarious deconstruction of the tropes and cliches of the slasher film. Imagine a film like Man Bites Dog crossbred with Scream

Nov 30, 2014Philip K. Dick Adaptation/Possible Messages from Aliens
Adaptation of an autobiographical Philip K. Dick book that he wrote in an attempt to make sense of a series of bizarre hallucinations, this long-rumoured film manages, despite a low-budget, to mainline the brain-twisting nature of Dick's writing better than any other adaptation
