The Descent

Afraid of the dark? You will be.

The Descent is one of the best horror films in recent years. Check any horror forum and you’ll find people calling it the best movie of 2005 (it was released last year in Europe). The guys at Slasherpool even say, “This might just be the best horror movie I have ever seen.”



Intruder

Intruder is probably one of those movies that you’ve heard about, but never seen. This low-budget 80’s slasher is alot of fun. Even though Bruce Campbell’s name is on the cover, he only has a small cameo.



The Company Of Wolves

The Company Of Wolves is one of those 80’s movies that had amazing box art. The image of a wolf’s snout forcing it’s way out of a man’s stretched mouth while Little Red Riding Hood looks on under a full moon. When you see something like that at your local video store, how could you possibly pass up the rental.

Neil Jordan’s film is a fairy tale wrapped in a nightmare. Those looking for scares or gory will probably be disappointed. But the imagery is very cool. This is highbrow horror. Roger Ebert even gave the movie 3 Stars.
