'Time Crimes' is another in a line of excellent Spanish films where the horror is psychological rather than blood-spattered. Ignoring the theory that you
cannot go back in time (or forward) and meet yourself, the film plays with the
results of going back a short way in time by leaving the current male lead in a
nightmare where he meets himself not once but twice with devastating effects. Well acted and tightly directed this is a first-rate effort.
'King of the Hill' was a substitute for 'The Substitute'. A Spanish film which
was again using the theme of killer children in the wild, this was more an
adventure film that any sort of frightener - reminiscent of 'The Most Dangerous Game' without the prey knowing who was hunting them or why.
Well-filmed and gripping, it had a plus in that the hunted came out on top.
'Trailer Park of Terror' took the teenagers in jeopardy theme into a parody
of the genre while piling on the gore. Not that good though it kept moving.
'Mum and Dad': what a nasty little film. Some nice little touches though.
Gave up on the remaining films of the day
