Round-up of our werewolf reviews and top 10 list. February saw Top 10 Films spend a little time with a group of mythological beasties that like to come out when the moon is full.

Science-fiction in the 1990s was a mix of dystopian societies, self-reflexive parodies, high-concept action, good old horror, and a smattering of sequels. Quite an eclectic mix. During ten years we went from the serious (Strange Days, Contact, 12 Monkeys) to the ridiculous (Galaxy Quest, Space Truckers, Fortress) but there was always an element of quality on show.

Check out our ten picks for best science-fiction of the 1990s…

Oh dear. Poor Odette Yustman has only gone and killed her twin brother with her own umbilical cord. The dead foetus has now come back from the dead as the reincarnated spirit of some other dead twin, and is now hell bent on making Odette’s life miserable. Can Rabbi Gary Oldman save her life, Father Karras-style, with a much needed exorcism? I think that’s the story. It’s something along those lines anyway. It doesn’t matter, you will have switched it off long before Oldman makes it to the screen. Don’t worry, he looks as miserable to be there as you’ll be feeling after watching this piece of crap.

Just in time for Halloween, we conclude our look at the best horror movies of the late 1960s and 1970s. In Part 3 we run down the top 10 scary movies released between 1967 and 1979. We have witches, and we have demonic children, pagan cults and fanatically religious mothers. Also in the mix are a family of cannibals, a host of dispensable teenagers, an insane brother, a loving father, a computer named Mother, and a son hell bent on taking over the world. And we must not forget the terrifying alien, the shark off Amity Island, and that strange little woman who stalks Donald Suhterland in Don’t Look Now.

UK readers should head on over to the BBC iPlayer page to view the first two (of three) 1 hour documentaries on horror cinema presented by League of Gentleman actor/writer Mark Gatiss. This brilliant series looks at horror cinema since the early part of century right through to the classic American period of the 1960s and 1970s with each programme focusing on a particular time period.

Horror film has always been at its best when representing in some form the genuine fears populating society at the time of release. Whether it be the cold-war fears of the 1950s or the feral youth of the 2000s, horror film has managed to tap into our base fears through the very real issues plaguing contemporary culture. Arguably, the genre has never been as powerful or influential as it was between the beginning of the American New Wave and the total commercialisation and high-concept era of the 1980s. In other words, the best horror films ever made appeared in the 12 years between 1967 and 1979.

As Back To The Future prepares for its UK re-release Oct 1st, Top10Films takes a look at star Michael J. Fox’s best films. Yep – he’s made other films than Back To The Future, AND some of them are really, really good!
