Starring: Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, Directed By: James Wan I was so excited when I heard this was coming out, and yet I didn't actually get a chance to see it til recently.

Heading into the west half of London for some reason seems like a bit of an adventure. I rarely head over to Shepherd's Bush, but it always amuses me that it's full of Antipodeans. We head across and into the Vue, where at the top of the stairs we're surrounded by beer swilling Londoners, all… Continue reading London Fright Fest: Beyond The Gates (2016)

(But do anyway) We Still Live Here (2015) Probably my favourite on the list, this involves a recently bereaved, middle aged couple moving into a… Continue reading Horror Movie Round Up: Strange Children, Haunted Houses and Psychic Experiments.

The Uninvited (2009) - the oldest horror on this list, and starring Elizabeth… Continue reading Horror Movie Round-Up
Starring: Emily Goss, Taylor Bottles, Cathy Barnett Director: Aaron Keeling, Austin Keeling A wonderful little horror, with some new things to say about hauntings (one of my favourite types of horror films), this story involves a heavily pregnant woman moving away from the city and closer to her domineering mother. Jennifer (Goss) was unsure whether… Continue reading The House On Pine Street (2015)
