The new series, which is a spin-off from the movie franchise, started on the 8th of December. It took 12 special effects experts and an undercover […]

The day after the Autumn Statement – that’s the day the Government messes with the money you have and will need to spend – many of the newspapers are up in arms about this year’s Christmas TV.

Competition: Win a copy of the amazing Patema Inverted

Really? The Devil is a Part-Timer review

Banned for a decade: A review of Ghostwatch
If there’s one medium of horror I can’t stand it’s the Found Footage movie. Too often it’s a lazy excuse for bad shakeycam disguising poor effects whilst no-name “actors” enjoy their fifteen minutes. Also I’ve been spoiled because the first time I saw anything of that ilk was when I watched Ghostwatch on Halloween 1992. […]
