Reviews & Commentary by Adam Groves
PIECES
If limb chopping and head-loppings were enough to make for a quality product then PIECES would be a masterpiece, but they aren’t and it’s not
MILL OF THE STONE WOMEN
A striking but largely unmoving film that premiered around the same time as (and was vastly overshadowed by) Mario Bava’s classic BLACK SUNDAY
PIGGY
Cinema du Brute, which has given us CARRIE, EVILSPEAK and MAY, gets a 2022 airing in PIGGY, a slickly made Spanish import
BAD BIOLOGY
A supremely immature “Godawful Love Story” from Frank Henenlotter
BRAIN DEAD
Fact: Roger Corman did manage to turn out some interesting films in the 1990s, with the superbly trippy BRAIN DEAD near the top of the list
VIRGINTOOTH
You have to admire a writer who thinks big. Case in point: Mark Ivanhoe, author of VIRGINTOOTH, about vampires who can fly, shapeshift and alter the fabric of reality at will
THE SATANIC MILL
This German children’s novel predated the HARRY POTTER books by over 25 years, and the similarities are undeniable
THE ADAM EXPERIMENT
This one certainly sounds good, being, apparently, a “near-future thriller with the terror of ALIEN, the horror of ROSEMARY’S BABY, the suspense of COMA!”
THE DARK DOMAIN
Here’s an excellent single author anthology from the UK’s Dedalus Books, who can always be counted on to unearth vital and interesting European authors
ROBOPOCALYPSE
I didn’t think much of this inexplicably popular take on one of science fiction’s widely utilized clichés
