From that unsettling Miri episode of Star Trek to Village of the Damned everyone knows that children have the capacity to be very very creepy. Directed, produced, edited, and shot by the single-named one-man-band Makinov (though I get the feeling that should be pronounced MAKINOV!! based on the opening and closing credits) Come Out and Play basically a remake of Who Can Kill a Child, or for a more familiar frame of reference, a remake of Children of the Corn set in a beautiful coastal village in Mexico. It doesn’t exactly offer anything new in terms of plot or theme, or indeed scares, but it may just make you want to go on holiday. More
Directed by James Plumb Night of the Living Dead: Resurrection is the latest zombie film to be released on DVD. Set in the Welsh countryside a family must fight off both living and dead intruders whilst dealing with their own family dramas. Firstly, Night of the Living Dead: Resurrection is an unfortunate title for the film as any comparisons to its namesake, arguably the greatest zombie film of all time, will mean that it falls short. Surprisingly though, Plumb’s Welsh apocalypse happens to be a pretty decent low budget horror flick and setting it up as a remake does not do the film any justice, especially as all zombie films can find their roots in Romero’s classic.

A few years ago the news in the UK was awash with a medical trial gone wrong story which actually killed a member of the general public. The Facility is a horror film that seems inspired by such an event as a group of people come together at the Limebrook Medical Clinic to undertake a trial of new drug Pro9. Naturally things don’t quite go as planned and as the warning states a few bad side effects somewhat ruin the evening. More

Unlike Slasher House I’ll just get straight to the point: Slasher House is one fucking shite ride into the mind of someone who should be banned from holding a biro let alone having access to recording equipment.
Waking up naked in a prison cell, Red (Eleanor James) has no idea who she is and why she is there. She wanders about a bit, because you know, if you’re going to have a feisty female lead character we need to see the tits and ass first. So after discovering some clothes she has a wonder about for what feels like fucking forever. Finally she speaks, and low and behold, she can’t act for shit and you long for the naked days again. More

“Dead Mine” sees Joe Taslim (The Raid) and Sam Hazeldine (The Raven) leading a film stuffed with impressive make-up, visual effects and great scares. With an intriguing combination of human experiments gone awry, enclosed spaces and the real effects of war on soldiers and civilians, this suspense filled action-horror will keep you guessing to the very end. Possibly the most exciting aspect of this release is the return of the amazing Steven Sheil, after his electrifying debut feature Mum & Dad. Dead Mine will be out to own on DVD from the 13th of May.
