Imagine you suffered from what the main character in this black-and-white atmospheric chiller suffers from when it comes to auditory vibrations. A series of loud sounds – whether they are the breaking of dishes on the floor or the crashing of a car out on the street – sends ...

Egads! An amazingly large creature is on the loose in Los Angeles hunting down women (and it’s not Harvey Weinstein). It swallows its victims whole sucking them down from finger to toe (again, not Weinstein). Wailing as it does while slurping them down its throat ...

Psychedelic dream sequences; wild orgies; LSD; and a scene of grotesque canine disemboweling experiments that nearly sent A Lizard in a Woman’s Skin’s famous director to prison. This is the beating heart of an Italian cinematic masterpiece that explores the fuzzy ...

Wreck the halls with kinky jollies! Masturbation mixed with psychic-linked samurai kills are truly the gifts that keep on giving. Blood Beat has to be one of the oddest co-productions out there. It's horror on horseback as some French surrealists meddle with American slashers to ...

Exploding from the innards of a barn comes a roaring beast. It’s not supernatural; it’s all man-made and, just ask the driver, this machine is an extension of every ill thought he currently has trapped in his skull. The angst and hurt are real. And so is the rage that fuels ...

Because everyone has a secret. The stand-up bass; the muted trumpet; and those ominous chords. It’s all about the cool jazz of composer Angelo Badalamenti, folks. But the close-up on the static-filled television suggests...

Beyond the Seventh Door, on its string bean budget and with its Jigsaw-like way, is every bit the very definition of a cult classic. And any negative thing you can say about it merely adds to the film’s growing fandom. That’s power right there, folks, and, truly, this bizarre ...

There’s something wrong with Karen (Tara Chung). She’s dry humping the beach again. Truthfully, while she does display a whole hell of a lot mental instability during writer/director Roberta Findlay’s skin flick, she’s not as fucked up as the people around her. And ...

Few of us can say that we’ve been baptized by a hot stream of piss. That’s probably not something people list when asked about their individual life goals. I’m sure there’s someone out there that thinks being on bended knee in front of a gigantic pagan God as he ...

Model-turned-actress Isa Jank (Forbidden Love), with her stunning looks, is good at getting attention. The camera, at one time, really loved lingering on her high cheek-boned ways. Considered hot property by the late 1980s, she was pretty much leveled to a pillar of ash ...

Pay attention, fools! When a horse – broken, trained, and otherwise tame – has a nasty reaction to a person and then, later, breaks free from its pen and charges the same person, trying to stomp them into the ground, it usually means something. That’s what happens to ...

If the opening moments of Kill, Baby, Kill aren’t enough to set you on edge, then I suppose nothing else in Mario Bava’s bloody good movie will either. Move along, kid. There’s literally nothing for YOU to see here if you remain unaffected by its suspense. This film ...

There’s something funky tasting with the meat in this bowl of chili. The owner of the restaurant wants to find out why. He pours the vat of chili out into the sink. It plop, plop, plops with thick gumminess as it hits the silver, trickling slowly out in clumps. He sees nothing wrong ...

Opening by ripping off Evil Dead with its own talking book of the dead, Evil Toons announces itself early on as a dead end b-movie as David Carradine, looking all sorts of wizardly, hides in the shadows. With a grim face and white straw-like hair, he casts a spell with his undead ...

Slaughter High, even for a b-movie, just barely gets a passing score. Written and directed by George Dugdale, Mark Ezra and Peter Litten and co-starring Carmine Iannaccone and Gary Martin, this cult flick favorite survives the passing of the VHS-era of home ...
