Children of the Revolution (2010) “What is extraordinary about Children of the Revolution is the daughters’ differences of opinion about their mothers’ involvement in revolutionary politics.” – Electric Sheep Mar 15, 2022 Full Review Haxan (1922) 93% “For all the rationalist posturing it is the representation of the supernatural that makes Häxan so memorable.” – Electric Sheep Oct 8, 2020 Full Review Black Lizard (1968) 100% “The fluid sexual identity of Black Lizard is part of a world where nothing is as it seems, a world of permanent illusion, sleight of hand and make-believe.” – Electric Sheep Sep 10, 2017 Full Review Under the Shadow (2016) 99% “The use of the chador in Under the Shadow is one example of how the film successfully manages to be both a serious reflection on the position of women in Iran and an intensely creepy horror film.” – Electric Sheep Aug 16, 2017 Full Review Revengeance (2016) “Revengeance is a wild gust of iconoclastic fun.” – Sight & Sound Jul 22, 2017 Full Review We Are the Flesh (2016) 73% “A stunning masterwork, visually and sonically accomplished, radical, fearless, and nourished by an irrepressible, lush, dark energy.” – Electric Sheep Nov 18, 2016 Full Review The Third Part of the Night (1971) “A fascinating journey into a shadowy world where the nightmare of history blends with personal nightmares.” – Electric Sheep Mar 18, 2016 Full Review Evolution (2015) 83% “A beguiling mix of art and horror, Evolution is a richly evocative, intensely physical experience, an eerie, darkly poetic meditation on the strangeness of organic existence.” – Electric Sheep Oct 20, 2015 Full Review The World of Kanako (2014) 67% “As morally murky as Confessions, and as emotionally intense as Memories of Matsuko, The World of Kanako is a visceral dive into hearts of darkness and the ties that bind them.” – Electric Sheep Oct 29, 2014 Full Review Shrew's Nest (2014) 95% “Plunging the audience into a world of brutalisation and oppression, of relationships distorted by abusive power, of impotent victims' perverted strategies of survival, Shrew's Nest cannot help but resonate with the painful history of the country.” – Electric Sheep Oct 29, 2014 Full Review Spring (2014) 85% “The film as a whole, in its imperfect quest for love, has a winning dark charm” – Electric Sheep Oct 24, 2014 Full Review A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014) 96% “A true gem that is not to be missed.” – Electric Sheep Oct 6, 2014 Full Review Wetlands (2013) 91% “A big blast of filthy energy.” – Electric Sheep Sep 25, 2014 Full Review The Canal (2014) 74% “What makes The Canal so captivating is less the familiar story than David's intensifying nightmarish mindscape ...” – Electric Sheep Sep 8, 2014 Full Review The Harvest (2013) 70% “A slow-burn that stubbornly follows its own path, it is an impressively mature and weighty return to cinema for John McNaughton.” – Electric Sheep Sep 1, 2014 Full Review The Babadook (2014) 98% “Skilfully directed, the film is perfectly poised between real and unreal and manages to be both emotionally rich and disturbingly creepy, remaining ambiguous to the end.” – Electric Sheep Aug 28, 2014 Full Review The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears (2013) 51% “An ultra-sensuous, hypnotic trip through dark desires and the disturbing, delicious lines between pleasure and pain, madness and sanity, dream and reality.” – Electric Sheep Apr 11, 2014 Full Review The Raid 2 (2014) 83% “The action is what truly matters here - and what action!” – Electric Sheep Apr 11, 2014 Full Review We Are What We Are (2013) 85% “Mickle has fashioned a melancholy American Gothic tale set deep among bleak, misty mountains.” – Electric Sheep Feb 25, 2014 Full Review Nymphomaniac: Volume II (2013) 58% “Astonishing, energising and exciting, Nymphomaniac is a fearless film made by a man with a tremendous lust for life in all its cruelty, absurdity and richness.” – Electric Sheep Feb 21, 2014 Full Review Nymphomaniac: Volume I (2014) 76% “Astonishing, energising and exciting, Nymphomaniac is a fearless film made by a man with a tremendous lust for life in all its cruelty, absurdity and richness.” – Electric Sheep Feb 21, 2014 Full Review Only Lovers Left Alive (2013) 86% “An undemanding, irresistible pleasure.” – Electric Sheep Feb 20, 2014 Full Review The Innocents (1961) 95% “So much is suggested, and so little shown.” – Electric Sheep Dec 12, 2013 Full Review In Fear (2013) 81% “Lovering skilfully creates a potent atmosphere of surreal dread, brilliantly supported by Roly Porter and Daniel Pemberton's excellent soundtrack.” – Electric Sheep Nov 13, 2013 Full Review You're Next (2013) 80% “The most nerve-racking horror film to come out in a long time, You're Next is a blast, from the viciously intriguing beginning to the humorously nihilistic ending.” – Electric Sheep Aug 15, 2013 Full Review
