The Last Shark (1981)

The Last Shark is an Italian ’81 Jaws knock-off, infamous for its US block. An author (Franciscus) and shark hunter (Morrow) track a great white terrorising a coastal town, battling a stubborn mayor. It’s a fun, low-budget effort with B-movie charm.

Parker is the name, and he is back in this latest outing, not based on any book in particular Shane Black holds the reigns and Amazon Prime writing the cheques.

Dawn of the Dead (2004) is a wild, fast-paced remake of George A. Romero’s 1978 classic

The Mother of Tears, directed by Dario Argento, is a disappointing conclusion to the Three Mothers trilogy following Suspiria and Inferno.

The 1990 remake of Night of the Living Dead is indeed a notable example of how to successfully reinvigorate a classic film while maintaining its core spirit.

Dario Argento’s Inferno is a visually stunning but narratively flawed sequel/followup to Suspiria.

Day of the Dead (1985)

Posted on October 15, 2025March 11, 2026 by garethmyles

Though now a cult classic, Romero’s Day of the Dead had mixed initial reviews. Critics praised Savini’s gore, but the narrative is seen as a slow, dark slog focused on unlikable characters and frustrating power struggles in a bunker.

Suspiria is a landmark horror film that easily captivates it’s audience

Dawn of the Dead (1978)

George A. Romero’s “Dawn of the Dead” (1978) defined the modern zombie genre, cementing tropes like slow hordes & headshots. Its satire on consumer culture and commentary on societal decay make it a masterclass in entertainment & social commentary.
