Considering their reputation as ‘dump months,’ January and February seem to have over-delivered on the horror front in 2021. We’ve already had Chloë Grace Moretz fighting chauvinism, Nazis, and airborne gremlins in the fun monster mash-up Shadow in the Cloud. And Nicolas Cage continued to embrace the genre that best suits his wild-eyed persona in the gonzo animatronic slasher Willy’s Wonderland. Even the reboot that no-one really asked for, Wrong Turn, managed to breathe new life into the unfathomably long-running hillbilly franchise.
