The Disney live-action remake finally arrives mired in controversy but the film itself proves a solid production for the most part

The biggest box-office hit six weeks in a row in 2020, albeit during Corona lockdown. This gets some extremely creepy effects in that managed to work on a jaded viewer.

From Andrew Lau, director of Infernal Affairs, a comedy about a man caught up in a romantic quandary from his previous reincarnation

The first sequel to the Troma hit and all the usual bad taste, moron humour, you associate with a Troma film but also better produced then most their films

Lightweight but eventually not unenjoyable time travel film in which Asa Butterfield invents a time machine to go back and stop Sophie Turner breaking up with him

I have to admit this, The Asylum's twisted take on Little Red Riding Hood, had me watching based on its title alone

Charlie Kaufman's mind-bending, head-scratcher about road trips, weird dinner conversations and identity blurrings. Moria explains what it is all about

Entry from they heyday of slasher film with a killer stalking the dorm. Featuring an unknown Daphne Zuniga as one victim

Entry in the Anglo-horror cycle with a resurrected witch and an imported Lon Chaney Jr presiding over deviltry in a sleepy English village

[moriareviews]

The eighth of the Hellraiser films. By now a long way away away from Clive Barker's original vision and no more than a haunted house story where the Cenobites occasionally turn up. Does feature a young unknown Henry Cavill

The amusing idea of a mimicry of a Bear Grylls-type wilderness survival reality show - but with the addition of a monster.

Films About Magicians and Sorcerers - Moria

From Gandalf and Merlin to Harry Potter and Dr Strange, from wizards to stage magicians and magician superheroes, a look at magicians on film

[moriareviews]

The two time-travelling slackers are back after nearly thirty years and the film amusingly sees them having reached uneasy middle-age. Moria debates whether the wait was  worth it

Fine animated film that traces Superman's early years - Superman: Year One if you like - as we see pieces of the mythos coming together
