The Indonesian horror flick that’ll leave you gasping for air—or praying for a quick death
Universal Pictures gifts us an alien invasion thriller so predictable even the extraterrestrials are yawning. Ice Cube and Eva Longoria try to salvage something, but the script is flatter than a roadmap.
Maggie Gyllenhaal drags Frankenstein into the 1930s: more makeup than meaning, a romance that burns neither hot nor cold, and an edit that feels like it was sliced with nail scissors. Passed with flying colors… if the colors were all the same shade.
Lee Cronin revives Sam Raimi’s demons with a bigger budget and zero soul. Sequel or scam? Claqueta Ácida dissects the corpse.

Milla Jovovich returns to what she does best: kicking asses with a poker face. Adrian Grünberg keeps the pace, but the script limps along. Minor work? Absolutely. Necessary? Also.
James Wan produces, Corin Hardy directs, and the demon Valak repeats ad nauseam. Soulless industrial horror that reeks of sanctity... but the kind that’s gone stale.
Raúl Cerezo delivers a Spanish Gothic thriller that reeks of mothballs and sweat. Psychological terror or nursing home nightmare? Let’s dissect it.
Gerard Johnstone delivers a horror-comedy with more jokes than scares and a cast that barely keeps the furniture from collapsing. New Zealand, where’s your gothic soul hiding?
A social allegory that moves like a broken elevator: powerful at first, then circling the same floors until you’re bored of your own despair.
Jaume Collet-Serra turns a promising slasher into a melting wax theme park. Paris Hilton shines—just not with talent.
