“I’m a hungry man!” When Vestron Pictures originally released C.H.U.D. 2: Bud the C.H.U.D. back in 1988, they knew exactly the type of movie they had on their hands. And it wasn’t a horror flick. The sheer lunacy of following up a horror film with a straight comedy might ...
Melinda Clarke, who stars in Brian Yuzna’s Return of the Living Dead 3, might just be the hottest zombie ever to grace the silver screen. She is, after all, the original living dead girl. She’s a wild girl, complete with flaming red hair and ice-cold eyes. Her edgy personality and ...
It is the first film to receive an X rating solely for its violent content. I Drink Your Blood is also a masterpiece of the drive-in. Its debut on blu-ray, thanks to Grindhouse Releasing, is an important one. It is not to be missed. Writer/director David Durston (ABC’s Tales of ...
Windows up. Doors locked. Such is the paranoid view that David Cronenberg’s Rabid presents in his commercial follow-up to his debut, Shivers. Quebec and Montréal, due to a highly suspect procedure received by Rose, the lead character actress Marilyn Chambers ...
While the results are far from perfect, The Neptune Factor probably began its life as an imagined undersea adventure with some unexpected moments of the bizarre. It’s certainly creative with what it offers, but the results are beyond disappointing. The film cuts its characters ...
It came from outer space to eat the living! With this tag, Fred Olen Ray’s The Alien Dead arrived in theaters. This was his first theatrically released film and, while it underperformed, there’s no denying that a legacy for schlock was born. While the B-movie disappeared ...
Jack Frost has been granted an extended life, Ghouls and Boils! With more schlock than shock, this earnest slasher is truly a gift to manunkind. Wait. Don’t tell me you’ve never heard of this one, fellow freaks. No, it does NOT star Michael Keaton as a harmonica-blowing ...
“Get me off this FUCKING show,” mutters one contestant on the television game show Live or Die. With contests like Dance of the Seven Boners and one involving transporting two heavy gas canisters through rings of fire, it is the most controversial show to ever be filmed ...
Reputation Road, here we come! With that sentence, a young man’s wildest sexual fantasies come true. Overlooking Los Angeles from high in the hills, Kyle’s (Steven Boggs) attempts to get laid finally come to fruition thanks to the support of those zany fantasy-fulfilling ...
Now, THIS is how you successfully pull off a B-movie. The Waxwork series of movies - Waxwork & Waxwork II: Lost in Time – were made during a very special time in the horror genre, all thanks to the video market. Celluloid magic was everywhere and distribution deals ...
When Canadians do horror, good things tend to happen. The Pit, directed by Lew Lehman, is a great example of that statement. Released in 1981, this low budget horror film tells the tale of a weird kid who stumbles upon something stranger than himself deep in the ...
To the outside eye, The Astro-Zombies is probably not regarded as the greatest of monster flicks. Clocking in at 91-minutes, the b-grade entertainment at the center of this Mad Scientist tale is far too long. Several scenes meander in and out of all rational thought as ...
I am not a huge fan of Horror maestro Wes Craven. I tend to check out of the whole adoration club when the discussion turns to his most recent offerings. Yes, Scream included. I just think that, of all the names in horror, his filmography is one of the spottiest. ...
Dude. Talk about a blast from the past. Duuuuude. Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is already a comedy classic from the latter part of the 1980s. Had it failed to connect with audiences, there would be no Beavis & Butthead. There would be no Wayne’s World. While we ...
