The Descent: Part Two by John Harris – 2009
This adventure horror flick is the sequel of 2005 release The Descent. If you have watched the previous part, you will find quite a lot of similarities with director John Harris’s The Decent: Part Two. This sequel has carried forward the story with almost the same maturity or just lack of it. The Descent: Part Two starts with... More
Hush by Mark Tonderai - 2009
In a simple word, Hush is a common man’s British thriller. Though at no point of time you can consider this flick as a masterpiece or a thriller worth remembering, yet writer-director Mark Tonderai has given his best efforts to make Hush a little more than an average movie. This is a story about a guy who is ready to do anything... More
Chinjeolhan Geumjassi by Chan Wook Park – 2005
As the third instalment of the ‘Vengeance Trilogy’ of director Chan Wook Park, Chinjeolhan Geumjassi (English Title: Sympathy for Lady Vengeance) is an equally well made movie, which fulfils the expectations that has been created mostly by Oldboy and Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance. After being hugely impressed by the class of Chan... More
Zankoku Hanten by Koji Kawano – 2008
Not all Japanese horrors are classics. Even some of them are just like our Ramsay Brothers’ productions. The only difference is that female characters in these Jap movies are far cuter than the Indian counterparts. Once you go through the numerous forced nude scenes in Koji Kawano’s Zankoku Hanten (English Title: Cruel Restaurant),... More
Boksuneun Naui Geot by Chan Wook Park - 2002
The first instalment of the trilogy of Korean director Chan-wook Park is Boksuneun Naui Geot (English Title: Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance). This Korean thriller is a class in itself, if you like the style of Park. Though most of his movies (OldBoy, Bakjwi etc.) are kind of similar at the first instance and they definitely revolve around... More
Bakjwi by Chan Wook Park – 2009
Again director Chan Wook Park proves that he has no lack of creativity when it comes to movie making. And if you think vampires are cool, then you can definitely try this Korean thriller. Bakjwi (English Title: Thirst), as usual is a thriller solely dependent on interplay of relationships with human psychology. Though I don’t have... More
Opera by Dario Argento – 1987

Opera (English... More
Telmisseomding by Yoon-Hyun Chang – 1999
Here’s another Korean drama-thriller movie for you. It has been quite some time since I reviewed two of my all time favourite Korean horror movies Janghwa Hongryeon (English Title: A Tale of Two Sisters) and Old Boy (not exactly a horror movie though). However, Telmisseomding (English Title: Tell Me Something), directed by Yoon-Hyun... More
[Rec] by Jaume Balaguero & Paco Plaza – 2007
The point of view (POV) camera technique has been once again explored in [Rec]. You just don’t watch the movie; you become a part of it. And it’s more exciting, if it is a horror movie.

Drag Me to Hell by Sam Raimi - 2009
From the start to the end, Sam Raimi has developed Drag Me to Hell into one of the finest horror movies by using elegance and glow in his skill as the director.

Antichrist by Lars Von Trier - 2009
Hate it or love it. It is one of those very few movies that definitely deserve a mentioning. Antichrist, directed by Lars Von Trier will surely blow your mind away. This is by far the best horror/ drama released in 2009. A movie that deals with a very touchy subject like the essence of human relationship and death submerged in the... More
Carver by Franklin Guerrero – 2008
“Based on true events”, as claimed during the opening of this movie, Carver is a tale of a bunch of friends lost in a jungle. The entire blood drenched survival episode is shot by the director Franklin Guerrero Jr. only with an hd camcorder. Many critics don’t consider Carver as a motion picture as it is shot in a very low... More
Train by Gideon Raff - 2008
Written and directed by Gideon Raff, Train is an amalgamation of ideas lifted from Hostel and Turistas. Nothing new in this story, yet this horror/thriller movie is able to provide couple on intense moments, especially in the beginning, only if you can tolerate torture porn and organ reaping. Train begins with similar storyline of... More
Grace by Paul Solet – 2009
An atypical horror movie, neither does it scare the hell out of you nor will you feel the pumping of the adrenaline. Grace is an absolutely slow movie which progresses at its own comfortable pace. However, the writer-director Paul Solet has cleverly used his skills to make Grace a sophisticated horror movie with intelligently twisted... More
Les Yeux Sans Visage by Georges Franju - 1960
After the release of Les Yeux Sans Visage (English Title: Eyes without a Face), this French thriller faced a heavy criticism for the content of the movie. In simple words, it was quickly rejected by the critics. Georges Franju, with his directorial skills was unable to make the critics understand his own peculiar source of inspiration... More
Turistas by John Stockwell - 2006
With tanned bodies and topless TV stars and the beautiful location of Brazil, John Stockwell has successfully turned Turistas into an easy money making tool. At no point of time you can consider this thriller flick to be a contribution in the genre of horror or thriller movies. Turistas means tourists. This movie is basically shot... More
Tenebre by Dario Argento - 1982
Dario Argento, the Italian horror-thriller guru is back again with another masterpiece of his.

Jiu Ming by Chi-Leung Law - 2004
Chi-Leung Law tried hard to make a clever movie but Jiu Ming (English title: Koma) turned to be one of those not-so-smart films that have been produced in Asia. However, this does not really mean that this Hong Kong thriller does not have any tight moments, but as usual, often the twists and turns in the plot are way out of the reach... More
