Movie Review: We Are Still Here

In 1981, Lucio Fulci completed the unofficial Gates of Hell Trilogy with House by the Cemetery (it follows The Beyond and City of the Living Dead). The movie centered on a family who move to an old house with a secret. I do not want to give away the secret, but let me say it is a good one. The film is another winner in the late Fulci’s filmography. It has a great score and features the great Catriona MacColl. Of course, it has the most annoying screen child this side of the Babadook boy, the infamous Bobby. Now, I am sure you are wondering just what this has to do with We Are Still Here, right? Well, rest assured, it is not another remake.

Movie Review: You're Next

You're Next is one of those horror movies that has been left collecting dust on a shelf somewhere for years. So many films suffer this fate that sometimes I wonder what great gem may be hidden away, never to be seen by an audience hungry for what it's frames contain. After two years of sitting around, it has finally been given a clean bill of health and allowed to play in cineplexes around the country. It leaves behind such titles as The Poughkeepsie Tapes and All the Boys Love Mandy Lane (although it appears that Mandy may yet see the light of day).
