REVIEW: 

At the point when Cloverfield touched base on the extra large screen in 2008, nothing was thought about the J J Abrams-delivered beast film. 

No curve balls there: from the web fuelled tricks encompassing TV demonstrate Lost to the express lockdown on spoilers for Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens, Abrams delights in conjuring up secret and interest. 

Indeed, even by all accounts, be that as it may, new film 10 Cloverfield Lane was made under a cover of ­military-review mystery. Indeed, even the cast didn't comprehend what they were taping – it was given a distraction title – until shooting was under way. Its exceptionally presence was just uncovered two months before discharge. 

Relinquishing the discovered film style of the past film, this is a by and large extraordinary prospect – more a turn off than direct continuation. 

A chamber dramatization, an elusive ­psycho-thriller, it plays on fears that numerous Americans appear to have about being attacked or ­attacked. 

Mary Elizabeth Winstead stars as Michelle, a young lady who, after a short sweetheart escaping introduction, awakens from a fender bender to get herself tied up in a cell in an underground dugout. Her dreadful captor, Howard (John Goodman), has watched out for her injuries – yet discloses to her she can't clear out. 

In the hands of a chief, for example, Eli Roth, such a situation would have slid into a horrible torment/exact retribution flick. Be that as it may, this film, co-composed by Whiplash's Damien Chazelle, plays reckless with class desires. 

At the point when Howard clarifies that there has been some sort of assault that has left the air tainted, and that he saved Michelle, she normally declines to trust him. Be that as it may, a kindred dugout tenant, amiable neighbor Emmett (John Gallagher Jr), appears to authenticate Howard's story. 

To state significantly more would give away the film's various turns, yet make a big appearance executive Dan Trachtenberg remains in charge in these colossally claustrophobic ­bunker-set scenes that frame the heft of the film. 

Specific credit goes to Goodman, who hasn't been this startling since Barton Fink. However there are snapshots of cleverness, as well, easing the strain and far expelling it from the inauspicious agnosticism of other post-whole-world destroying survival stories, for example, John Hillcoat's The Road or Xavier Gens' The Divide. 

Now, you might be meandering what on Earth this needs to do with Cloverfield, something a CGI-substantial act answers. Kind of. 

In truth, that finale doesn't exactly satisfy the prior barometrical scenes, however Winstead is ordering as a champion in the vein of Alien's Ripley, conveying an execution that ought to at last place her in the general population ­consciousness. 

Flipping amongst awfulness and science fiction easily, this is a film loaded with winded, heart-halting minutes, regardless of the possibility that the "Clover-verse" confining gadget never entirely persuades.

The well

The well

2024

The twilight settings and the acting performances even of the minor roles are very appreciable, some scenes in the finale give a touch perhaps unintentionally funny that I personally appreciate a lot in horror films. A simple but well-crafted story, with realistic dialogues, the long gore scenes in the film could disturb those like me who do not appreciate them but prefer dark atmospheres and mystery, which are not lacking anyway. A low-budget production that does not disappoint but rather transports us to the past of an Italian genre cinema that is now almost defunct.

Late Night with the Devil

Late Night with the Devil

2023

Late Night with the Devil by directors Cameron and Colin Cairnes uses a retro TV show setting to create an unnerving atmosphere that draws viewers into a slowly intensifying horror. The film’s attention to detail, from the 70s grainy footage style to shifting between black-and-white and color, sets the tone perfectly. The clever cinematography immerses audiences as if they’re watching a live broadcast unraveling in real time, a technique that intensifies the suspense, especially during the eerie "commercial breaks." David Dastmalchian’s portrayal of Jack Delroy is a... Read More

La Reliquia - a movie by Paolo Martini

La Reliquia

2020

Disturbing Rosemary's Baby in southern sauce, "La reliquia" (seen online at the Fantafestival in Rome) is a successful insight into the practices and rituals of southern Italy. The theme is the atmosphere is very interesting and original, but the narrative suffers from the short duration. The cast of actors is exceptional, mostly comedians, but perfectly in part in histrionic (Paolantoni) or slimy (Rizzo) roles. The beautiful and evocative photography creates a dark atmosphere. Effective direction. Note of merit: the use of the lunar music by Egisto Macchi, author of... Read More

Gretel & Hansel Review

Gretel & Hansel

2020

Anyone familiar with the original versions of classic fairy tales like “Hansel and Gretel” already knows that they have lots of horror movie potential. As a rule though, most attempts to capture these tales on film tend to miss the mark. It’s clear from the conspicuous reversal of the titular names that Gretel & Hansel hopes to distinguish itself from the rest of the pack right from the get-go, but does it actually do the job, or are you better off spending 90 minutes of your time on some other film? Gretel & Hansel is the brainchild of writer/director Oz... Read More

Ritual

A married couple with a complicated relationship, a corpse, and a room at a less than reputable motel. It’s a classic formula for a horror movie that’s no doubt familiar for many genre fans.
