"Knock at the Cabin" is another effective horror thriller from M. Night Shyamalan, balancing suspense and terror before an ending that over-explains it all.
With "Sick," screenwriter Kevin Williamson and director John Hyams use the pandemic setting to create a tense, smart and relentless thriller.
The "Hellraiser" remake is a gory and visually striking reimaging of Clive Barker's original, but is so focused on ripping off flesh it never burrows under it.
"Firestarter," the latest adaptation of Stephen King's 1980 novel, has an eerie soundtrack and some effective atmosphere, but the spark just is not there.
