Brutal action
One for John Wick fans
A pretty simple story of man with some gold who some fleeing Nazi's at the end of WW2 try to rob. Except this guy is someone you don't mess with.
The cinematography is great, a very photogenic film especially in the early part. Then it kicks in to bad ass John Wick mode with gory violence. Simple and effective.

Looking dated now
A cult classic and for the time I can see why. However if watching it for the first time now, it looks very dated and the effects quite poor. Still it has its gory moments, a rather simple story and it could do with the cenobites being in the film a bit more. It did launch a whole load of sequels, 7 altogether?!

This is a great comedy horror with plenty of action. Shaun of the dead, meets Dawn of the dead. There are plenty of laughs as a few remaining survivors take a road trip across the states dispatching Zombies along the way in a variety of styles. Very tongue in cheek, quite gory to but very funny as well. Kinda reminded me of the game Dead rising as well.

This was an intellectual horror. Andrew Pyper did a good job working Paradise Lost by Milton into this novel. It almost makes me want to read the full text of the poem - but not quite.

If you are looking for a gory horror story, look elsewhere. While this does have a few icky moments, most of it is psychological.

Even after finishing it, I'm still wondering...

Do you believe?

Lacking bite
A sort of B-movie horror with very dark humour. It's actually a bit slow and just seems to fill out the spaces between the 4 main scenes in the film. Some will find it to gross and gory and be crossing their legs. Something different, taboo subject matter in a way but overall doesn't make it a great horror. More one to to experience than anything else.

A must watch for Slasher fans
An above average straight to DVD slasher. Surprised could have done ok at the cinema. A creepy looking killer, good location, quite a few familiar faces in the cast including William Sadler! Quite gory in places, the story is original if very far fetched. A mix of 8mm, Scream and Wrong turn. Better than most recent slasher films I've seen.

Firstly no way is this a remake of the original 1980 slasher. They are both called Prom Night and that is it, the stories are totally different! The other problem is this is classed as a horror but only a PG-13?! Pretty straight forward slasher stuff, not scary or gory but done on a big budget. Watch the 80's one it was only just slightly better!

Perhaps not quite as good as I was expecting from some of the reviews I have read nevertheless I still really enjoyed this. A relatively simple but kind of strange premise makes for some exciting gory thrills. I thought Samara Weaving was pretty good and made for a likeable charismatic lead as she strikes back against her batshit crazy new in-laws. Fast paced , thrilling and lots of fun.

Well-written
Good characters
Exciting
Good idea
I enjoyed this book, not sure if it is YA or sci-fi. Sometimes the story felt more basic and others it was quite gory. I love the premise and the overall dystopia story. Flicking between the different people is good and builds tension. Overall worth a read - im not sure there is enough for me to read the next books.
