Reviews & Commentary by Adam Groves
MATANGO
This classic of Japanese horror, from the creator of the GODZILLA flicks, was a groundbreaker in its day and remains an effective piece of work
MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE
If you were a kid during the eighties then you probably remember the Masters of The Universe toy line and cartoon program. You may also recall the notorious Cannon Group, who according to one writer were responsible for “some of the shoddiest fare ever foisted upon the public.”
MARTYRS
An extremely well made, thoughtful and unique film, the French-Canadian MARTYRS (2008) is a good movie by most standards, but it’s also a profoundly fucked-up one
MARRONIER
This shot on video J-Horror fest sucks, but does contain some arrestingly weird imagery
MARQUIS DE SADE
Trashy straight-to-video fodder, nominally about the Marquis de Sade
AUTHORITY
The second book in Jeff Vandermeer’s Southern Reach trilogy, and a novel that follows the standard etiquette of most middle entries in a trilogy, from THE TWO TOWERS to THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
AURA
One of the most vivid and fecund ghost stories in existence, with a premise that is quite original and a second person narrative that never feels self conscious or distracting.
THE ASSOCIATION
THE ASSOCIATION contains everything a fan of the author might expect: an intriguing premise and an absorbing narrative rendered in easy, conversational prose.
AS FATE WOULD HAVE IT
Those of you not wanting to experience graphic depictions of violent psychosis are advised to steer clear. For everyone else, though, it comes highly recommended as an eye-opening peek into some of the darker regions of the human psyche.
AROUND A DARK CORNER
The third volume of stories by Jeani Rector follows fast on the heels of her previous collection OPEN GRAVE, which appeared in mid-2008.
