If you missed the amazing French series, Les Revenants (The Returned) when it aired on the CBC, you can chain-watch all 8 episodes of season 1 now on Netflix. That’s what I did as soon as Sue and I were offered the chance to chat with showrunner Fabrice Gobert during TIFF. We chatted about…

Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead (2014) – Kiah Roache-Turner
Available on blu-ray and DVD today from Anchor Bay is this fun, Australian, B-movie action-horror take on the zombie genre, which feels a little like Mad Max meets Romero, and is bloody as it is often funny. This time the zombies (who look like a cross between the traditional zombie, and the Deadites of Evil Dead) are…
Fringe Toronto: My Big Fat German Puppet Show
As of this writing, I’ve only seen four shows so far this year at Fringe, and I’ve loved them all, but last night’s performance, its opening night at Fringe, of My Big Fat German Puppet Show was AMAZING! And I wasn’t the only one, by show’s end, the audience was on its feet giving Frank Meschkuleit a…

Murdoch Mysteries S07E04 & S07E05
Sometimes the days just get away from me, and I fall behind on the things I need to watch because things get so busy, so I was quite happy to settle in and catch up on the most recent episodes of the wonderfully entertaining Murdoch Mysteries! First up is Murdoch of the Living Dead….
Dead Before Dawn 3D – April Mullen
Last night, at select theatres across Canada, the zemons arrived! Half zombie, half demon, this new brand of terror has slowly but surely been taking the world by storm, and last night, it was our turn. A homecoming, if you will, since the halfbreeds were essentially created right here in Canada – in Niagara…
Toronto After Dark 2013: Stalled – Christian James
I haven’t seen a movie where things go so wrong at Christmas since the days of Gremlins and Die Hard. In Stalled, a custodian-type everyman, W.C. (writer/star Dan Palmer) finds himself trapped in the women’s washroom at a company party on Christmas Eve when the zombie apocalypse suddenly breaks out. Soon he’s barricaded himself…
Toronto After Dark Spotlight – V/H/S/2
I should totally have reread my review for the first film in this series, because I went in with some high hopes for this installment in the series, because a couple of the segments looked like they could be really good! I settled into my seat for the second half of the first Toronto…
