Rating: Not Rated Stars: Vincent M. Ward, Tony Todd, Krista Grotte Saxon, Monaye Moyes, Meberate Brooks, Jon Briddell Writer: Thomas J. Churchill, story by Vincent M. Ward Director: Thomas J. Churchill Distributor: Lionsgate Release Date: June 30, 2023 DEVILREAUX fits, very broadly, into the CANDYMAN pantheon of vengeful revenants created by wrongs of the pre-Civil War American South. An onscreen title informs us that we’re in present-day New Orleans. A nice young couple have what appears to be a tourist-trap magic shop. While they are redecorating, both are killed by a tall black figure in skeleton white-face makeup. This is […]Read On »

Rating: Not Rated Stars: John Rhys-Davies, Michael Yare, Elena Delia, Richard Brake, David Pearse, Brian Fortune, Peter Coonan, Claire J. Loy, Matthew O’Brien, Tristan Heanue, Graeme Coughlan Writers: Tim Reynolds & Stephen Hall, story by Tim Reynolds Director: Stephen Hall Distributor: 101 Films/Trinity Creative Partnership Release Date: June 27, 2023 (digital, VOD) THE GATES is only intermittently scary. However, with a tone somewhere between Hammer horror and MASTERPIECE THEATRE, it makes up in entertainment value what it may lack in fright. We’re in 1880s England, where creepy serial killer William Colcott (Richard Brake) is terrorizing a bound female victim, with […]Read On »
