Fergie was right.  It’s all for the glamorous life. Just ask the two women at the center of this politicking pole dance workout. ...

OUCH.  Weston gets it right in the balls.  Why so complex, Electra? And mean?! Maybe it’s all the lecherous POVs that have pushed you over the edge.  Or is it the threat of boarding school from your mother? ...

So you like westerns and war games, eh?  A regular savage are you?  Well, you better check out the two-for-one bullet methods at the sadistic heart of this group of psycho killers as they move through the golden land of peyote.  Brute Corps kinda sorta maybe ...

The unexpected passing of director Tobe Hooper has given us good cause to do a re-evaluation of his work in horror and in the science fiction/thriller genre of film.  There’s a lot to take in.  From the excellent Lifeforce to the blood-red hues of Eaten Alive, there are a lot of ...

Because you just don't fuck with your mother.  Like ever.  Rita Matchett is about to learn that valuable lesson ...

There was a brief time, Lunatics and Germs, when the 1990s absolutely sucked.  It was the very beginning of the decade, starting perhaps around 1988, and we were in a bit of an identity dilemma wondering in which direction the pendulum would swing.  Our stopgap  ...

Ah, the 1990s.  When gunning down an entire hospital’s staff and then later opening up fire with a machine gun inside a famous movie theatre as a porno plays was greeted with a big grin and a thumbs up.  Sex and violence, man.  Good times.  Good, good times. ...

It’s with a bit more political bite than expected that The Great Alligator lands in this b-movie fanatic’s Code Red collection.  JAWS, while far more successful of a film, never got this provocative with its social commentary.  Gobble, gobble, gobble, munch, munch ...

“Do you live here?  Is this your place?”  Those are the two questions quickly asked to the old woman who surprises three travelers who, after being stranded by a snow storm, have broken into an old hotel in the middle of nowhere.  They assumed it was vacant. ...

Based on the true story John Hughes, who turned down the job of directing because he didn't want to he be anywhere near Hollywood, outlined in National Lampoon, Mr. Mom is a true comedy classic.  It outgrossed Hughes' own Vacation when it was originally released in theaters  ...

What’s he building in there?  What the hell is he building in there?  Now, before I go too far down the Tom Waits rabbit hole, you should not be alarmed.  It’s only Tobor the Great being constructed!  Esteemed among men and future space explorer, Tobor, even before the ...

Inspired by ‘The Case of Charles Dexter Ward’ by H.P. Lovecraft, The Resurrected continues to be the Lovecraft film adaptation that is most Lovecraftian.  It was a film that was pretty much yanked away from its perfectionist director and, sadly enough, completed by the ...

Sun-bleached and seedy as hell, Trip with the Teacher features a rather torturous teenage death as one student is slammed headfirst into desert sands and then held down to choke on every grain.  Talk about choking on a sandwich, Mama Cass. ...

It is suggested in Ed Wood’s last fleshy fable that, “to love the cat is to be the cat.”  Criswell’s own princess of the dark says that to him, peering up at his noodle-blonde hair.  Bring out the pussycat for the whipping then is the command.  They are born to be spanked.  Come again ...

This is the story of what happened when Joe met Kate ... and then rented the Debbie Reynolds workout tape.  Psychos in Love is a fully realized version of Annie Hall by way of Psycho.  It is, from beginning to end, a very funny film.  Forget the horror aspects, man, this is an ...
