BADass SINema Unearthed - Blu-ray 4K UHD Review

Writer/director Charles B. Pierce (The Town that Dreaded Sundown, The Legend of Boggy Creek) really likes small town horror.  I don’t disagree with his tastes either.  I live in a small town – with no local police department – and, let me tell you, some of my neighbors, well  ...

The theatrics of actor Paul Naschy made him an unstoppable tidal wave of terror in the genre.  Horror, as seen through the eyes of this legend, was quite expressive and always lurid.  It’s easy to see why he was considered, among his many legions of fans, to be the  ...

"The hell with radiation.  Let's go." This right here, where horror and space travel had one of their silliest hook-ups, is probably the only safe place to be in the solar system … when plants attack. The Angry Red Planet is finally getting some respect and, honestly, it is about damn time ...

“Mind the doors!” One of the most absolutely terrifying scenes in underground horror occurs about 30 minutes into Death Line (aka Raw Meat).  In a dingy, unused space of the London Underground network, we hear a bizarre moaning sound. Maybe it’s sobbing.  The camera ...

Low-grade exploitation – shot on VHS – is a damn funny thing to sit back and review.  You pretty much know what to expect.  Shoddy SOV quality, undisciplined filmmaking, blurry images, static shots, and – as this one features murderous scarecrows on the loose across ...

Originally planned to be a segment in a horror-themed film anthology and then later thought to be a b-movie budgeted serial killer who grinds women up with a lawnmower, The Lawnmower Man was always a tall order for any movie studio to tackle.  When it finally came to ...

I don’t dream in cheesy music videos, but Tommy Drindle does.  And his twisted music-fronted nightmare features a bikini-clad model shooting green lasers out of her eyes at the band members who lip sync poorly to the lyrics in the song.  The model eventually hits a few ...

Even when Peter Cushing loses his cool, he doesn’t lose his cool.  You must remember that.  The world could be collapsing around him (as it often does in his movies) and the actor would still respond with his familiar blue-eyed logic and a pair of protective gloves.  The ...

Wherever it is in the outer realm of this eternal existence that producer/director/writer Al Adamson now hangs his hat, here’s hoping it has one hell of a view of the heavens.  His bankable B-movies – however cheap and trashy they come across – are endlessly entertaining ...
