After... A horror film about urban exploration filled me with hope for another film dealing with the horrors of asbestos (Review: Session 9). While asbestos was never mentioned, there was plenty of very suspect dust floating about and the “urban explorers” did occasionally put some material over their noses and mouths. Unfortunately asbestos and pigeon lung were not considered frightening enough for this film, so instead there's some radiation, a mouthless\eyeless ghost, gas mask wearing soldiers, scabby homeless people, disintegration and most horrifying of all... an atrocious plot. Luckily it is short: just 80 minutes long. Plenty of things happen and lots of images flash past but in the end you will be glad it is over.

Review: Session 9
Session 9 is not the film it purports to be. I found out about it in a list of genuinely frighting horror films on IMDB. The blurb made it sounds like a modern William Castle type horror affair, a big joyous scary ride. David Caruso was a lure too, his sideways glances in CSI:Miami with a scared look on his face sounded like a good time.

Review: The Torment
I knew absolutely nothing about The Torment before I started watching it. From the opening slightly wobbly camera shot to the first British daytime TV drama lines of dialogue I was convinced this film would live up to its title. At only 87 minutes long I knew I could take it. But by the end of those 83 minutes I had found that not only would I choose to take again and I would recommend others to take it too.
