THE MYSTERY OF RAMPO
A strange and often puzzling fantasy about the late Edogawa Rampo (1894-1965), Japan’s foremost horror/mystery scribe
MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE
A 1932 Bela Lugosi chiller notable for highly expressionistic visual design and shocking-for-its-time violence
MORGIANA
A memorable exercise in gothic excess whose fabulously baroque visuals and a deliriously melodramatic storyline make for an interesting and enjoyable viewing experience
MOONLIGHT BOY
Poetic, bizarre and altogether impressive nineties-era horror from Taiwan that can be viewed as Asia’s answer to THE SIXTH SENSE
THE MONK (1972)
A fumbled French made attempt at adapting Matthew Lewis’s gothic classic THE MONK to the screen
MOEBIUS
Combining a compellingly offbeat story with some very potent (and disturbing) political overtones, this is an intriguing, innovative and unprecedented film that deserves a US release
MIRACLE MILE
MIRACLE MILE may not actually fall under the category of horror, but it is one of the scariest movies ever made
MIMIC
For years director Guillermo Del Toro all-but disowned this heavily flawed 1997 film, his first English language feature
THE MIGHTY PEKING MAN
An agreeably trashy Hong Kong production from the seventies, THE MIGHT PEKING MAN was a remake of KING KONG that’s as exploitive and ridiculous as anyone could possibly desire
MIDORI
Adults-only anime madness that’s profoundly stylish, outrageous and disturbing. In addition, it’s undoubtedly the ultimate movie (after FREAKS) about a traveling freak show.
