The Candy Snatchers (1973) |

Lucius Gore |
Tomato 4/4 |

"... [O]ne of the best horror films of the 1970s." |
Lucius Gore |
Tomato |
The Castle of Cagliostro (1979) |
"The second Lupin anime feature, is widely regarded as the thief's best outing..." |

Splat |
The Cat (1992) |
"This haphazrd combo of horror, sci-fi, mystery, and action is such a botch that even hardcore Hong Kong film fanatics may have trouble sitting through it." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
Cat Girl (1957) |
"The little, low-budget opus belatedly attempts to cash in on Cat People but it has little of the subtlety and none of the style of the 1942 Val Lewton production." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
Catwoman (2004) |
" An almost unmitigated disaster, this major studio production with a major star in the lead (the Oscar-winning Halle Berry) comes across like a direct-to-video production, complete with ultra lame computer-generated effects and clueless direction ..." |

Cemetery Man (1996) |
"Cemetery Man's Cult Popularity Explained" |

Splat |
Cemetery Man (1996) |
"This over-rated film has developed an undeserved cult reputation, based on a handful of good elements; ufortunately, there is no plot, so all you need to see is the trailer or, at most, the first fifteen minutes." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato 3/4 |
The Centerfold Girls (1977) |
"A highly entertaining grindhouse slasher ..." |
Lucius Gore |
Tomato |
Chicken Run (2000) |
"Chicken Run is the most delightful piece of feature length animation to debut this summer." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato 4/4 |
Child's Play (1988) |
"'Child's Play' is one of the scariest movies ever." |
Lucius Gore |
Tomato 3.5/4 |
The Children (2008) |
"As killer kid horror movies go, 'The Children' is easily one of the best." |
Lucius Gore |
Tomato |
Children of Men (2006) |
"This is an astounding piece of work - easily one of the best films of 2006." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005) |
"The story never quite lives up to the grandeur of the visuals, and the narrative tends to drag, especially in the first half." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato |
A Clockwork Orange (1971) |
"Producer-director Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of the Anthony Burgess novel is a strangely overwhelming experience %u2013 at time contemptible, and yet always valid in its sardonic outlook." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
Cloverfield (2008) |
"Despite the mostly convincing verisimilitude of the approach, the film does succumb, especially in its last act, to some cheap manipulation, one or two bad stereotypes, and some cornball Hollywood schmaltz." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato |
Constantine (2005) |
"This film combines elements of comic book fantasy with horror to create an enjoyable brew - sort of a film noir version of The Exorcist, crossbred with the stylization of The Matrix." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat 2/4 |
Contamination (1981) |
"The one saving grace of this film is the excellent score by Goblin." |
Lucius Gore |
Tomato |
Coraline (2009) |
"Coraline mixes the dark and the light in the perfect amounts; the result is all the sweeter for having dared to tread the bitter path of childhood fears and uncertainties." |

Coraline (2009) |
"Enter the enchanted world of CORALINE on February 6" |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
The Corpse Grinders (1972) |
"... silly scripting, bad acting, cheap sets, [and] dingy photography become part of the entertainment value, turning the film into a campy laugh riot." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato |
Count Yorga, Vampire (1970) |
"Yorga may not be a very refined film, but it packs a lot of attitude ..." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
Crazy Eights (2007) |
"A laudable attempt at atmosphere and a handful of creepy moments are not enough to redeem this muddled mess." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato |
The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) |
"... established new style for horror -- bold, bloody, beautiful-- that completely broke tradition with the cobwebby classics of the 1930s and 1940s." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato |
Curse of the Demon (1957) |
"One of the most intelligent and thoughtful horror films ever made." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Tomato |
The Curse of the Werewolf (1961) |
"Lon Chaney, Jr.'s Wolf Man may be cinema's most famous lycanthrope, but there can be little doubt that this 1960 film from Hammer Productions is the best werewolf movie ever made." |
Steve Biodrowski |
Splat |
Cursed (2005) |
"What can you say about a horror film when its spookiest cast member plays the innocent victim?" |
