There is surely a market for an Underworld B-movie knock off, even a badly made one…. Is what I thought before I saw Among the Shadows. The film mashes the Underworld vampires and werewolves conflict idea with some hardboiled detective nonsense – the fit and healthy young lady is actually a grizzled old, alchy gumshoe.. with narration, whiskey, the whole thing.
We are in the near future, and in the “United States of Europe” thanks to Brexit, apparently. Kicking off, with quite the prankster uncle Harry calling his young, attractive niece to tell her he had been shot… her reaction implies she gets a lot of calls like this from him (possibly at 3am with uncle Harry breathing heavily and crying loudly).
The mugging of poor uncle Harry – who...

The Dwelling is also known as Bed of the Dead, and the poster is a loving homage to the Evil Dead. Promising stuff from Uncork’d Entertainment, which harks back to that “so bad it is almost good but isn’t” review I did of The Demonologist (sadly it is nothing like the Evil Dead).
Here we kick off with an old-timey satanic lynching before coming back to the present for a police controller casually explaining there has been a fire at a sex club. Jesus, some days it is tough being a cop. It is the ruffled hair, the leather jacket, the hip flask and an old photo of a girl that gets me through...

Low budget police drama meets camp biblical nonsense – demons and the horsemen of the apocalypse. To me The Demonologist sounds like a lot of fun (albeit the title sounds like a failed course from a failing university).
I have a soft spot for under paid, over worked (fictional) professional monster hunters. Be they John Constantine (in the comics), Giles from Buffy or Harry Dresden (in the books). I love these grumpy, surly individuals that ultimately end up doing the right thing when the stakes are stacked high enough against them.
Which takes us nicely into talking about The Demonologist. This is very much an origin story. Our “Demonologist” starts out as just another cliched,...
