THE UGLY
Pretty good nineties horror from New Zealand, with style, decent acting and gore a ‘plenty!

JACK FROST

JACK BE NIMBLE
One of the best genre items of recent years, this 1994 New Zealand release is that rarity of rarities: A truly original horror film
A GUN FOR JENNIFER
A reasonably potent 1996 addition to the female revenge movie subgenre that was never commercially released in the U.S

LUTHER THE GEEK
There are some eye-catching gore effects in this nineties low budgeter, and a memorably depraved lead character
