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.
Otherwise known as the world as metaphor. When you talk about originality in cinema, you best not forget to mention filmmaker Slava Tsukerman. Tsukerman, a soviet born artist who moved to New York City in 1973, created something unique with the release of 1982’s cult classic ...
Not all alien encounters will be friendly. That’s the assertion made in The Dark, a wildly uneven production that is underlined by a super paranoid-causing soundtrack featuring the spookiest use of marimbas to date AND haunting voices that repeatedly whisper and hiss ...

The Russians won the space race with the launch of Sputnik-1. They quickly followed their success with a bunch of interesting science fiction flicks that caught the eye and interest of famed producer Roger Corman. Some of these cinematic tales were peace offerings to ...
Heavy. Metal. Horror. Rock on! I don’t know about you but a longhaired GIANT zombie, wearing gray sweats and a navy hoodie, stumbling through a recreation center swinging an aluminum bat sounds all sorts of crazy fun to me. The zombie eventually corners the ...
Augmenting a person’s DNA with limited technology during the Cold War is probably not the best of ideas. At least, for this group of soviet superheroes it isn’t. While it does provide them with extraordinary abilities – like ground and rock manipulation, turning into a werebear ...
With cut-off Arabian souvenirs (hands) filling knick-knack shelves and other odd body parts popping up in the background of this twisted take on the submerged and the macabre, Night Tide is more than just an matinee-styled ode to the works of Edgar Allan Poe and gothic-minded ...
Three adults stare back at the wrong end of a Colt .45 through much of this classic black-and-white exploitation film from 1963. The sweltering heat of the summer day has done a number on their car as they travel through California's Antelope Valley, but – more than anything ...
