To the outside eye, The Astro-Zombies is probably not regarded as the greatest of monster flicks. Clocking in at 91-minutes, the b-grade entertainment at the center of this Mad Scientist tale is far too long. Several scenes meander in and out of all rational thought as ...
I am not a huge fan of Horror maestro Wes Craven. I tend to check out of the whole adoration club when the discussion turns to his most recent offerings. Yes, Scream included. I just think that, of all the names in horror, his filmography is one of the spottiest. ...
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 ...
Cruising rather comfortably on its low budget, Hammer Horror director Terence Fisher’s The Earth Dies Screaming has one of the fiercest and most engaging openings to every kick off a science fiction flick. The Earth Dies Screaming literally begins with THE END of the ...
Writer/director Robert Hiltzik’s notorious slasherfest has returned to stalk the shelves right in time to celebrate the summer season. No need to pack your overnight bags, though. There’s no coming back from this batshit crazy camping experience. What will be seen can ...
The B-movie. The Creature Feature. The Creepy Crawlies Double Feature. Whatever your name for the horror genre’s offshoot is, Scream Factory – with their twofer release of Food of the Gods and Frogs – is who you’ll want to thank if you are into (like me) these low-grade ...
Mutant mayhem strikes doubly hard in Scream Factory’s twofer release of 1977’s Empire of the Ants and Jaws of Satan, originally released in 1981. One flick has mutant ants growing as big as people in it and the other features a morbid python possessed by Satan himself. Both ...

A classic is reborn! When it comes to cult films, Spider Baby, written and directed by Jack Hill, might just be the best example of the term’s definition. The film is a low-budget classic that nails its horror and its comedic elements like none other. While Hill – the director of Switchblade ...
The defining moment in Kevin Connor’s The Land That Time Forgot occurs when a Triceratops, after protecting her eggs from a villainously horned Ceratosaurus, is defeated by the real predators: man. Based on a novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Connor’s film has always ...
Those barking mad hounds of horror over at Scream Factory are back at it once again with their latest creature double feature blu-ray release. This time they take the mutations under the water with 1976’s Tentacles and 1962’s Reptilicus. As much as I am a solid sucker ...
Before you start struttin’ around town, wearin’ your high heels, and thinkin’ you’re hot shit, just remember that Coffy did it first. Before Alicia Keys sang about a girl on fire and before Bryce Dallas Howard earned street cred for outrunning dinosaurs in high heels there was ...
Her name is Foxy Brown. Revenge is what she wants. Blaxploitation icon Pam Grier stars in Jack Hill’s Foxy Brown which delivers on what it promises: more sex and more violence. Written and directed by Hill, the film is definitely a step down from what he did with for ...
Scarecrows, written and directed by William Wesley, is positive proof that, yes, 19-year-olds can create effective special effects and creature designs. Originally filmed in 1985 but released in 1988, this supernatural horror film involving bank-robbing mercenaries up ...
