M3GAN 2.0 (2025)

fenrisfil — Thu, 28 Aug 2025 20:28:18 +0000

Following on from AI/Killer Doll horror M3GAN from 2022 comes the somewhat predictably named “M3GAN 2.0”. Written and directed once again by Gerard Johnstone (With Akela Cooper and James Wan assisting with the script), this movie takes the franchise in a radically different direction. This is a direction that put off many of the fans …

28 Years Later (2025)

fenrisfil — Tue, 08 Jul 2025 09:19:36 +0000

These days it is never considered too late for a sequel. So it’s not a shock to see Danny Boyle and Alex Garland dig up their “28” franchise. Its been 23 years since the pair launched the series with “28 Days Later” in 2002. The first sequel “28 Weeks Later” came out in 2007. Boyle …

The Gorge (2025)

fenrisfil — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 20:28:14 +0000

“The Gorge” comes to us from Skydance and Apple TV and is from horror director Scott Derrickson and action movie writer Zach Dean. Derrickson has a strong pedigree in horror with films such as “The Black Phone”, “The Exorcism of Emily Rose” and “Sinister” to his name. He also did pretty well with the first …

Werewolf Triple Bill – Part II

fenrisfil — Tue, 18 Feb 2025 12:36:29 +0000

The full moon is up again here at Screen-Wolf, so it’s time for another werewolf triple bill. I think I’ve finally washed the bad taste of “Wolf Man” (2025) out of my mouth, so this will be the last one for now. Here are three more reviews of this difficult to pull off sub-genre of …

Werewolf Triple Bill

fenrisfil — Thu, 30 Jan 2025 22:27:08 +0000

Rather than doing a regular review roundup for January, I’m going to take a bit of a swerve. Continuing the trend from my previously posted reviews, I’m reviewing three werewolf movies. So, if you follow this blog (Or my social media posts), you know I didn’t like the new “Wolf Man” (2025) movie. That’s an …

Head to Head: Wolf Man (2025) & The Beast Within (2024)

fenrisfil — Thu, 23 Jan 2025 16:02:53 +0000

Today I have a Werewolf double bill for you, checking out the just released “Wolf Man” from Universal/Blumhouse and “The Beast Within”, an independent release, directed by Alexander J. Farrell, from last year. I’m going to put these two wolves head to head. These movies are pretty similar so it makes sense to make a …

Nosferatu (2024)

fenrisfil — Mon, 06 Jan 2025 13:42:20 +0000

Since Robert Eggers latest movie “Nosferatu” was released in the UK January 1st 2025, for me it is the first movie of this year. To many of my readers though it will have been the last movie of 2024 since it arrived Christmas day for the US and a few other territories. Sadly that means …

Christmas Horror Triple Bill

fenrisfil — Tue, 17 Dec 2024 13:33:17 +0000

I’ve been threatening to review some Christmas horrors for a few years and now is the time. Given horrors obsession with holiday themes it’s not a huge surprise to learn there are an awful lot of Christmas horror films. It’s probably even a less of a surprise that most of them are also awful. There …

1980’s Horror Triple Bill

fenrisfil — Thu, 31 Oct 2024 18:23:01 +0000

That’s right, It’s the final night of my October Review Challenge. That means it’s Halloween and *that* means it’s triple bill time. As you can probably guess, I watch the movies I review in October the day before I post (Sometimes earlier). So what I do on Halloween is sit back and enjoy three old …
