Stars: Alex Hurt, Addison Timlin, Marshall Bell, Rigo Garay, Michael Buscemi, James Le Gros, Barbara Crampton | Written and Directed by Larry Fessenden
With his latest film, Blackout (not to be confused with The Blackout), Larry Fessenden finally gets around to tackling the werewolf mythos. He’s dealt with vampires in Habit, Frankenstein and his creation in Depraved, and even the Wendigo in the film of the same name. Now he ventures to Talbot Falls, I wonder where he got that name from, for a tale of lycanthropy, small town corruption and what it means to be human.
Blackout begins traditionally enough for a horror film with a couple having sex outdoors, running afoul of a large, hairy creature before introducing us to Charley. He’s an artist with a drinking problem, or at least that’s what he tells people is the cause of his monthly blackouts. Of course, he,...

Hellraiser Returns To The Big Screen
The original 1987 horror classic returns to UK cinemas this week
This time in 4K…
It is time to re-experience the sublime agony of Hellraiser, as Clive Barker’s outrageously gruesome and influential horror masterwork returns to UK cinemas in a brand new 4K restoration – Hell has never looked so good!
In the 1980s, Clive Barker changed the face of horror fiction, throwing out the rules to expose new vistas of terror and beauty – and with Hellraiser, his first feature film as director, he did the same for cinema. The film was a smash hit at the box office, making fifteen times its budget, and went on to garner even more fans on home video. It became a hugely popular horror franchise, securing Pinhead and the Cenobites a place in the Horror Hall of fame.
Don’t miss this chance to see Hellraiser,...

A number of lost souls find refuge in a small motel in the middle of nowhere, it’s only distinguishing characteristic being the ruins of an old Mystery Spot—a long-dead roadside attraction with strange metaphysical powers. Everyone at the Mystery Spot will be affected by its unique properties, but only some will survive its reality-shattering implications.
Apparently squeezing this one in in-between Vfw and The Leech, Graham Skipper makes another welcome genre appearance in Mystery Spot which, early on, certainly lives up to the name. Though this film doesn’t seem to have garnered as much genre press as Skipper’s other works, even if this one did receive its world...

Stars: Graham Skipper, Jeremy Gardner, Taylor Zaudtke, Rigo Garay | Written and Directed by Eric Pennycoff
Father David (Graham Skipper) is a devout priest who lives by the bible’s doctrine to be a Good Samaritan at all times. So he is more than happy to welcome a struggling homeless couple Terry and Lexi, played by Jeremy Gardner and Taylor Zaudtke respectively, into his house during the season of goodwill. But what begins as a simple act of kindness and Christmas charity quickly becomes the ultimate test of faith once the sanctity of his home is jeopardised…
Sadistic Intentions writer-director Eric Pennycoff returns with actor Jeremy Gardner for The Leech, which could easily have been titled Good Intentions – for that’s what our lead character Father David has but – of course – there are those in the world who would prey on people’s goodwill and that’s certainly the case here.
