“I have had it with these monkey-fighting snakes on this Monday-to-Friday plane!” Oh, we are not playing this one straight. Buckle up. When I borrowed that gloriously neutered TV edit line for the opener, you knew exactly what altitude we were flying at. This is not prestige cinema. This is cabin-pressure ...
There are films that influence horror, films that shape horror, and then there’s Blood Feast, which doesn’t so much “shape” anything as it kicks down the door of the American cinematic psyche wearing a butcher’s apron and a grin that says, “You paid 75 cents for this, sucker ...
Some films whisper their intentions, films that seduce you with craft, and then there’s Scum of the Earth!, which grabs you by the collar like a chain‑smoking uncle at a family reunion and hisses, “Kid, lemme tell you how the world really works.” This is Herschell Gordon Lewis before the gore geysers ...
They came from beyond the stars. They crave your blood. And they’re hungry for brains. It’s Ed Wood by way of Mel Brooks! Let’s get this out of the way: Vampire Zombies… from Space! is exactly the kind of movie that knows the word “subtle” and throws it out an ...
They’re gross. They’re rude. They’re back — and they’ve never looked slimier. There are bad movies, and then there are movies that feel like they crawled out of a damp VHS bargain bin at 2 a.m., clutching a melted Jolly Rancher and daring you to look away. The Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987) is that ...
The Pink Panther Strikes Again finds the Clouseau series gleefully abandoning plausibility in favor of pure comic momentum—and it’s all the better for it. The film opens with former Chief Inspector Charles Dreyfus escaping from an asylum, now fully unhinged and vowing revenge on the man who ...
Few things are more punk rock than Tank Girl!!! From the moment Lori Petty storms onto the screen as Rebecca Buck—aka Tank Girl, anarchist drifter and middle finger to the Water & Power (W&P) corporation—this movie announces itself as chaos with purpose. Pair her with a refitted tank ...
On again, off again. In love, out of love. Going back to school, starting a new job. Everything is fluid and everything is changing in the whimsical and lustful drama from French director Jacques Audiard. Capturing the residential district of Les Olympiades in beautiful black and white photography ...
To put it bluntly, Troll 2 isn’t just a movie; it’s a rite of passage, a cosmic joke, a Gen‑X fever dream preserved forever in the amber of cult cinema. And Vinegar Syndrome knows it . . . which is why their reissue of this cult classic is a must-own. ...
The thing about Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf is that it doesn’t just feel like a sequel—it feels like a dare. A late‑night cable dare, the kind you accepted at 1:47 a.m. in 1989 because the remote was across the room and you were too exhausted, too curious, or too spiritually compromised to change ...
From the back alleys of independent publishing, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles quickly transformed from indie-darling to 1990s mega hit and evergreen ubiquity in the blink of an eye. There is always a comic, a cartoon, tv show, action figure, t-shirt ...
Let’s get this out of the way: A Shot in the Dark is what happens when a movie trusts talent, timing, and pure comedic anarchy more than test screenings and focus groups. Directed by Blake Edwards, this thing runs on precision, patience, and the radical belief that comedy should build, not ...
Teenage Gang Debs is exactly the kind of cinematic trash‑treasure that Gen‑X latchkey kids like us used to stumble across on late‑night UHF channels when the antenna was bent and the world felt just a little bit dangerous. The American Genre Film Archive’s Blu‑ray rescue mission only confirms ...
1990’s Misery is one of the finest book to screen King adaptations of all time, in my humble opinion. While this new dearth of King adaptions continues unabated with varying degrees of success or abject failure (*cough: The Stand), no one has (as yet) touched it, or even broached remaking it ...
Ninja, kick the damn rabbit! Arrow didn’t just restore these movies—they ambushed my adulthood and reminded me I’m still emotionally weak for guys in rubber suits. To put it bluntly, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies were never perfect, but Arrow’s release lands so hard it retroactively ...
