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.
With lines like "that's strange, my dad's battleaxe is missing" and a copious amount of well-managed gore and humor, there's no denying that The Mutilator is EXACTLY what any true fan of horror could ever want in a flick. It even has a super-stylized Springsteen wannabe ...
Vincent Price. To put it mildly, there is no other actor alive today that can match the sheer weight of his importance in the horror genre. No one. Price, good or bad, was an absolute master at the macabre (in an entertaining way) and his involvement in any film ...

Sonny Boy is, thankfully, a relatively unknown movie. I say thankfully because if more people knew about director Robert Martin Carrol’s screwed up flick, there would be hell to pay when it came to morality codes and such things as good, decent taste. Few people ...
Let’s go ahead and give the British the coveted award for best werewolf movie in quite a long while. It is much deserved. Howl, directed by make-up effects wiz Paul Hyett (The Seasoning House), is quite an effective independent feature with a rollicking cast of hairy ...
Warner Bros – as part of their Archive Collection – simply do not realize or appreciate some of the lesser-known gems they have on their hands. With the bare-boned blu-ray release of The Ice Pirates, their misunderstanding of this science fiction comedy is as audible as it ...
When we get to the films of director Frederick R. Friedel let it be known that we are in very special B-movie territory. Inspired equally by the eye of Orson Welles and the taste of Roger Corman, Friedel and his gang of film conspirators combined their talents and put North ...
