All The World’s A Stage

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers As many of you may be aware, I have already covered a few countries of Central and Western Europe individually – Austria, France and the Netherlands to name a few. Unfortunately, it is a lot harder to find enough films for each of the remaining countries so I felt …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’m not going to pretend this article was easy to write because it really wasn’t. Truthfully it should be called Chinese Language Horror as very few of these films were actually made in China. However, it does mean that places like Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia, who probably wouldn’t have …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’ll be honest, Indian cinema in general has never really interested me, let alone Indian horror films. I had such a worry but they were going to be full of out of context dancing and singing (wait for it). Now, I won’t say I’m converted but some of the …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I have been longing to write this article for so long! The first film you’ll read about – that section was written around a year ago. Unfortunately it had been very hard to get hold of South African Horror films. I was going to comment that these films love …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers This week, our horror tour of the world brings us back to Europe. I’ll be honest, finding Austrian horror films was a lot easier than I expected as it seems a lot of the German-speaking films I found were from there instead of directly from Germany. Goodnight Mommy                 …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers Here we have another continent, and a pretty big one at that! There was no way I would have been able to find enough films per country – but it also means there is likely to be a ‘South American Horror: Part 2’ as there are so many countries …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I’ll be honest, you can’t really write about international horror films and not have an article on Japanese horror. They have brought us Ju-On and Ringu – which are creepy on their own but the Americans thought the ideas were so good that they had to remake them. Mentioning …

WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers I can’t pretend it isn’t complicated trying to watch and analyse films from an area rather than a single country. With Celtic horror it was a little easier through the similarities between them and English horror in general. However, when looking at 5 different countries, there becomes fewer similarities …
