Smash Cut (2009)
A stroke of genius, or desperation, leads Whitman to use the dead stripper’s body as a prop in a movie, bringing a level of realism to his films that people respond to positively. Success comes at a price, and Whitman has to keep killing to satisfy his fans and producer, Philip Farmsworth Jr (Michael Berryman, from The Hills Have Eyes and The Devil’s Rejects, in an amazing wig).

Drag Me To Hell (2009)
Sam Raimi will be forever loved for giving us the Evil Dead series. That series is so good he is even forgiven for the atrocious Spiderman films he also directed. And that takes some forgiving. Drag Me To Hell sees Sam returning to the horror genre, but it is not a glorious return.

Midnight Meat Train (2008)
Clive Barker is a horror writer with many film adaptations made of his work, some of them good some of them not so good. Midnight Meat Train falls in to the latter category, but at it least contains the usual elements of his work – mystery, violent killings, and unearthly monsters.
The film is nicely directed by Ryuhei Kitamura (Versus) who brings a Japanese feel to this story from Barker's Books Of Blood, but the movie is let down by too much unconvincing CGI and a slow, clumsy script that can’t maintain suspense or momentum.
