BADass SINema Unearthed - Where we dig up blu-rays of the wild, weird, and wonderfully wicked world of classic grindhouse cinema. Celebrates the raw energy and unapologetic style of vintage exploitation films — from the slick swagger of Blaxploitation and the lurid allure of sexploitation to the gnarly thrills of monster mayhem and cosmic horror.
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 this day, there remains something insanely special about director Brian De Palma’s Carrie. It is based on the once-discarded novel by Stephen King, but was painstakingly adapted for the screen by Lawrence D. Cohen. Cohen got everything about King’s first novel right ...

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 ...
Vinegar Syndrome isn’t through with writer/director Richard Casey just yet. Hot off the heels of their “loverly” HD handling of Horror House on Highway 5 comes his second feature, Hellbent. This punkish fever dream is awash with neon splashes and a hyper-realized set ...
Hands down, It is the best killer clown movie around to ever roll out onto ANY screen. The miniseries itself might be a tad uneven, but nothing beats Tim Curry’s performance as the killer clown haunting one small town in Maine. I am just going to assume that NO ONE – especially ...
The Phantasm series completes its offbeat rotation around the sun with the release of Phantasm: RaVager this Friday. It is a movie that is both a fitting goodbye to the late Angus Scrimm and, operating as the fifth and final movie in the series, a fitting conclusion. As you are more...
