Writer/director Eli Roth (Cabin Fever, Hostel I & II, and Aftershock) might just need to be crowned the new King of Putrid. A self-confessed connoisseur of gore and Grindhouse alum, Roth’s work in the genre is living proof that the exploitation flick is not forgotten and definitely ...
Writer/Director Fred Dekker is a hero of mine when it comes to making memorable films. From Night of the Creeps to Monster Squad, Dekker has created some of my all-time favorites. It would be hard to imagine my upbringing without his wicked sense of humor and stylish wit. Thankfully, after waiting a bit longer than I would have preferred ...
We all know that college can change a young man. Most of us revert into sex-starved beasts on the prowl. Some of us conform to the peer pressure around us. Regardless of the good or the bad, life on a college campus is often times unplanned, unscripted, and full of primates. Which makes a film as loopy ...
There is a lot I remember from originally seeing The Believers in 1987 for the first time. That was years ago, but the thing that struck me – and continues to be striking (especially after watching this release from Olive Films) – is its opening sequence: Martin Sheen on a run with ...
What’s that funny thing behind the barn? That’s what Jenny (Natasha Ryan, in a performance that steals the picture away from the rest of the cast) wants to know.

Otherwise known as When Meteors Attack!!! Laugh all you want to, but there are moments – especially in deep space – when flying saucers drifting through clouds as meteors rip right behind them will have you doing more than just wanting to believe. This Island Earth (and its Mutants) is a vision on ...
Die, Monster, Die! It seems to me that the Horror Anthology, once popular in the 1960s, is making a surprising and rather strong comeback in recent years. There have been a lot of good, independent features that make the most of the short narrative structure ...
Black Belts in shotgun? Bombs on boomerangs? Hell, yes. So what if the lead character can’t shoot straight?! When you are having this much fun, who really cares? ...
A magical Motown martial arts movie? Oh, hell, YES! In fact, can I hear a “Sho’nuff” and an amen! ...
They have nine lives, we have one! Strays begins with a full moon. The dark night expands as we drop to the ground and, rather suddenly, we are running through the night. The POV is that of a cat. Close to the ground and beyond slinky as we cross the ...
Six friends. A remote part of Illinois. Snowmobiles. And a Satanic Cult. I mean, what could go wrong? The Chill Factor, produced and directed by Christopher Webster (the producer of Hellraiser, Heathers, Meet the Applegates, ...
We’ve all seen Luke Skywalker scoot around on the desert in a land speeder, but have we ever seen him pilot a cherry red Corvette Stingray with metal flakes and a glitter-flame dragon? Hell, no! Well, that statement might not be true, especially if you’ve already seen Corvette Summer, a ...
