This is a low budget horror/comedy in which an exorcism is performed on a motorcycle. If you are already groaning, stop reading. The shit isn’t going to get any better for you. Still here? Good. Allow me to continue ...

Meteor shit! Fuck-a-diddle! Loaded with highly quotable lines and scary-ass scenes full of corpses and maggots as fathers come back from the dead, the titanic team-up of writer Stephen King and director George A. Romero was no fluke. It still isn't. In fact, at the time of ...

There is a chill to the proceedings of The Ghost of Sierra de Cobre that, thanks to a series of interesting shots and edits, bring a sense of dreadful beauty to the sight of a car going over a cliff as its driver falls along with those spinning four wheels and crashes below ...

Clean shirt, short hair, tie, pressed trousers, sports jacket or suit, and leather shoes, preferably with a high shine on them. That’s what Sgt. Joe Friday (Dan Aykroyd) expects from his new partner, Pep Streebeck (Tom Hanks). What he gets, though, is a wise-cracking ...

Greetings from San Fernando Valley! The Val. The “normies” live here, you know. With no edge in sight and none of its history of display, people on the other side of the Hollywood sign just don’t appreciate the pink-clad urbanization of what used to be a thriving rural community ...

Provocative and psychological, this movie, featuring a brand new restoration from a 4K scan of the original negative by Arrow Video, is an incredible statement on the beauty of film as an art form. It is directed by a visual master of the macabre and, unrestrained with astounding ...
