Just try to blow out these birthday candles, bitches! Madhouse (aka And When She Was Bad and There Was a Little Girl) is for those horror b-movie junkies who want their cake and eat it, too. Its sticky sweetness ...

Rat Fink lives in the shadows. It is a film about risk. And it lives in another time and another place, where classic cars travel high speeds and loners ride the rails as Ricky Nelson-like pop songs live and breathe as more than mere background music. It is a dangerous place ...

Before Alien met Predator and THAT battle began, there was Alienator. I’m not really sure why Alienator, which is partly a remake of The Astounding She-Monster, doesn’t work as raucous as one would expect, especially from a b-movie director as prolific as Fred Olen ...

Never before has losing one's mind been so brutally glorious and funny! Wickedly directed (and shot) by Anders Jacobsson and written by Göran Lundström and Christer Ohlsson, Evil Ed is a clever response to Sweden’s own government-sponsored view of film censorship ...

A Cure for Wellness is not recommended to be a movie you just absentmindedly waltz in and watch. Its lens is far too encompassing for that. First we have the spa-based elements to deal with. Then there is the nod to the fabulous run of Hammer films that went ...

It’s not many who survive a haunting by a four-wheeled death delivery machine. And the assorted characters assembled for this flick know that so much insanity in one little town is not good for tourism. This low budget horror flick, complete with a seriously shocking ...

I've never really been able to get on board with this off-the-wall comedy. I love me some Bill Murray and Peter Doyle, they are two actors that do comedy well. I also celebrate all of Hunter S. Thompson's writings. Hell, you should see my bookcases; the dog-eared pages in ...

Writer/director Osgood Perkins’ The Blackcoat’s Daughter is a disturbing tale full of Satan worshipping, honest paranoia, and deep, deep emotions. It is one hell of a fucked up masterpiece of shrieking, atmospheric black terror. And, much like The Witch, it won’t soon be ...

Bow down, Brothers and Sisters of the Sinema. Bow the fuck down. You've not seen anything as righteous as this skin flick. It's not be the teen comedy promised by the infamous poster art (that became just as sought out as the movie itself), but Malibu High remains an ...

There are few things sillier than Christopher Lee’s stoic turn as Fu Manchu. For five films in four brief years, Sax Rohmer’s titular character would be solely Lee’s to morph into. To his credit, Lee did exactly that. To put it mildly, he simply disappears into the role. Whether it be ...

It is the most controversial comic book of my generation. It is also the most influential. There are few things more punk rock than the comic book 2000 AD. Debuting in the late 1970s, this weekly British comic book series and its characters broke all the rules. Today, its ...

Because the power of Juliet Mills compels yyyyoooooouuuu!!! The pea soup as vomit spews again in 1974’s Beyond the Door. Written and directed by Ovidio Assonitis and Robert Barrett, the horror flick about a pregnant woman is an obvious Rosemary’s Baby knockoff, but ...

This is the type of independent horror film where few got paid. It's fun and tedious and is worth remembering solely for the kill scenes and the fresh-looking gore effects. You see, that's what happens when a film gets made and then re-made again. It barely makes sense, but does ...

Donald “Donny” Kohler (Dan Grimaldi) might be a bit touched in the head, but he has a fantastic collection of life-sized adult dolls. They are nude, attractive, and, much like a fine brisket, a bit crispy on the outer skin. Blackened to perfection by the flamethrower he’s swiped ...

When the knife used in the film’s first murder is described by the detectives in charge as “real big and real sharp”, you know you’re in for one sweet ride. Silent Scream is exactly that. Directed by Denny Harris and set alongside the Pacific Ocean, this slasher functions as a ...
