Very similar to the Lionsgate release I think. 3 cut scenes, Five Man Brawl featurette, A Storm of Carnage.

Also from Fantastic Fest, Gregg Bishop's THE HERETIKS. Imagine you start watching a Disney-flavoured teen horror flick with a 90s feel, and then it turns into a bit of a sadistic gorefest in the second half. filmexposure.ch/2026/09/25/f...

Hopping vampires wreaking havoc in Dublin? Never thought I'd see it happen in my lifetime. And yet, director Fergal Costello has managed to cook up a fun, efficient little throwback to 80s B-movies. KUNG FU DEADLY premiered at Fantastic Fest. Review: filmexposure.ch/2026/09/24/f...

FF 2026: KUNG FU DEADLY – Bringing the Jiangshi back (for the craic)

To see the Jiangshi trope re-emerge in a movie from Ireland of all places is surprising to say the least.

I love it when I can recognize an action director's work across borders. Of course the action in OUT LIVE (Kim Young-jun, 2000) was directed by Ma Yuk-sing... who worked on SWORDSMAN 2.

I awakened from my summer hibernation to watch ADAM'S CURSE: REBORN FROM HELL, the brand new bloody, slurpy, floaty, sticky, gooey sequel to Necrostorm's ADAM CHAPLIN. Is it good? Bad? It's Necrostorm/10. boxd.it/fTcU93

This year, I was in charge of programming for the Asian Features & Asian Shorts competitions at NIFFF (3-11 July), which are, in my opinion, pretty badass. Films from Japan, China, HK, Thailand, Indonesia, Korea, and Vietnam. Action (lots of it!), horror, comedy, fantasy drama! Thread!

Oh, and did I tell about MATAPANKI? It's a Chilean movie in which a guy gets superpowers from alcohol, and defies the entire system. It's the most punk film of the year: anti-imperialism, anti-capitalism, with the DNA of DBZ and Kaiju cinema (!!) coursing through its veins.

More horror Swiss genre fans have been waiting for: SACCHARINE, HOKUM, NIGHTBORN, but also things they might not have heard about yet like BREEDER and QUINCE, and underseen gems that will blow their minds, like A PRAYER FOR THE DYING, JUMP SCARE, and GAUA!

Speaking of horror, have you heard of PHI PHONG: THE BLOOD DEMON? The highest grossing horror film from Vietnam, and it's having its European premiere at NIFFF. If blood-thirsty demons, and unexplained deaths in a remote mountain village are your things, you're in for a treat.
