An eerie, chilling and desperately melancholic portrait of codependency, blurring identities, bodily fascination and dangerous addictions.

A slightly shonky but also scarily surreal dark fairytale of malevolent desires, visceral horror and the unlocking of minds and worlds.

A thematically rich if somewhat crudely executed blend of horrors that are visceral, bodily, familial and otherworldly.

An enthralling, unsettling, prescient and seriously squishy satire of media effects and the merging of humanity and technology.

An ever-escalating and increasingly deranged dance macabre of long tracking shots, domestic menace and madness both marital and monstrous.

A jagged, delirious and ferocious dance macabre through religious perversion, group hysteria and ruthless political expediency.

A slightly jumbled but highly atmospheric and genuinely unsettling horror thriller of faith, friendship and menacing surroundings.

A bumbling and somewhat smugly cine-literate stoner horror comedy of teenage uselessness, occult gruesomeness and handiwork.

A politically problematic, overwritten and at times fairly dumb but still partially suspenseful and atmospheric occult horror of faith and science.

An equal parts shocking, grotesque, touching and tragic love story of ambition, passion, hubris and horrific bodily betrayal.

A mesmerising, surreal and disturbing melange of nightmares familial, mental, bodily and industrial.

A very strange, slightly amateurish and over-explained, homage heavy and effectively ambiguous occult romantic drama of weird juxtapositions, gender relations and fairy tale expectations.

A highly enjoyable if somewhat insubstantial teen drama of friendships and tensions, where magic is part and parcel of proceedings.

A lame, garish mess of clumsy wide angles, gurning performances and zero tension that fails failure both as a children’s horror and as a slapstick comedy.

A well measured and decently atmospheric occult horror of faith, knowledge and the clash between beliefs.
