The Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence)

Fido
** out of ****    I have seen my share of zombie films both good and bad; and the Canadian-made "Fido" isn't either. It's a satirical horror-comedy with an intriguing premise, but …

An American Haunting (Unrated Edition) (2006)

And Soon the Darkness (2010)
* out of ****    Most who see 2010's "And Soon the Darkness" will not know that it's a close remake of a 70's film of the same name. This is only appropriate, given that the original …
