‘The Purge’ Review – Frightening concept, Mediocre delivery
Written and Directed by JAMES DeMONACO (2013) The concept of The Purge is by far more horrifying than the actual execution of the events in film. Now, before you Ethan Hawke lovers get all bothered by that statement, I should tell say I am one you. I love Ethan; I just didn’t love him in …

‘Aftershock’ (Review) – Don’t travel, stay home and watch TV
Directed by Nicolás López (2013) There’s something happening at the moment in horror films where we, the viewer’s, are made to dislike all the characters in the opening scenes, which means you sit waiting for them to die one by one. I’m not opposed to that at all; after all it is a horror film. …
