Reviews & Commentary by Adam Groves
SWALLOW
After PLATFORM this is the hottest horror movie of spring 2020
THE PLATFORM
This Spanish language science fiction mindbender is very much in the tradition of Vincenzo Natali’s CUBE
CONTAGION
This above-average 2011 disease thriller is one of director Steven Soderbergh’s most purely entertaining films
THE APPLE WAR
A self-proclaimed “happy and mystic film” from Sweden with a highly eccentric critique of imperialism (of the cultural and environmental variety)
STRANGERS IN PARADISE
This ridiculous sci fi musical from the late R.W. Fassbinder acolyte Ulli Lommel wants very much to be a cult sensation a la REPO MAN or THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, but fails spectacularly
INVASION OF THE MUTANOIDS
MUTANOIDS isn’t entirely without interest, it being the most over-the-top alien invasion themed splatter-thon I’ve ever encountered.
INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (Book)
This iconic bestseller is perhaps the key vampire novel of our time.
INFERNO
INFERNO is something else entirely: a sprightly, surreal and totally captivating fantasy with a daring take on the inferno as imagined by Dante Alighieri.
INFERNO: NEW TALES OF TERROR AND THE SUPERNATURAL
This anthology, now available in trade paperback, has garnered much praise since its 2007 debut, and for once all the shouting is justified.
IN THE KINGDOM OF MESCAL
Formatted like a traditional kids’ story book, complete with imposing full-page illustrations, it’s a traditional mythology-based tale in many respects.
