Bad Acting. Bad dialogue. Bad movie, right? Not quite. There are exceptions. The Majorettes, starring Kevin Kindlin, Terrie Godfrey, Mark Jevicky, and Thomas E. Desrocher, is one of those. This psychosexual charged flick owes much of its creative prowess to its creators’ ...
And so we come to the blatant rip-off. Perhaps that’s too harsh. After all, there are some interesting things in the mechanics of Larry Stewart’s slasher (the finale inside the multi-level Dallas Market Center being one), but not enough to keep audiences focused on its ...
Bubba Ho-Tep and I have finally made up. I get it. I finally get why the movie absolutely works and why my punk-ass comments when it was originally released were so naïve. To borrow a line from from Gatsby's Nick Carraway, “in my younger and more vulnerable years”I was a complete ...
Ha, Criterion Collection. It seems that little April Fools Day joke (back in 2011) has come to bite you in the ass. C.H.U.D. has made it to blu-ray! There was a time in America when we surrendered to the idea of nuclear war. It was bound to happen. Why fight it? This attitude ...
I first saw Dario Argento’s Phenomena when it was released here in the United States as Creepers. That version – heavily edited by 30-minutes (for no other reason than to save Americans from actually thinking) – was essentially one long music video. Goblin and Simon ...
And now it is time to get weird; really weird. Jeremy Irons, man. What a commanding actor, right? Well, in David Cronenberg’s Dead Ringers, he plays a set of talented twins that, after a simple misunderstanding over the same woman, turn their successful gynecology ...
God bless Samurai Cop. Seriously. Ranking alongside The Room and Troll 2, Samurai Cop rounds out a trio of films so fucking bad that they are unyieldingly hilarious. You want to set the tone of a party right? Rent this bitch. The result of stitching together an action movie ...
“But, Miss Hammond... Helga! No Hammond ever ventures into the rocky lane on a foggy night,” is the warning. It’s the siren song of an entire family line. You see, the Hammond family IS cursed. Some might say they are cursed by wealth. Others will suggest it is ...
Nevermind the fact that the theme song – performed by Yes’ Jon Anderson – plays something like four times throughout the movie. Please ignore the mess the film leaves as questions go unanswered. And, for the love of all that is holy, just appreciate what John ...
“I’m a hungry man!” When Vestron Pictures originally released C.H.U.D. 2: Bud the C.H.U.D. back in 1988, they knew exactly the type of movie they had on their hands. And it wasn’t a horror flick. The sheer lunacy of following up a horror film with a straight comedy might ...
Melinda Clarke, who stars in Brian Yuzna’s Return of the Living Dead 3, might just be the hottest zombie ever to grace the silver screen. She is, after all, the original living dead girl. She’s a wild girl, complete with flaming red hair and ice-cold eyes. Her edgy personality and ...
It is the first film to receive an X rating solely for its violent content. I Drink Your Blood is also a masterpiece of the drive-in. Its debut on blu-ray, thanks to Grindhouse Releasing, is an important one. It is not to be missed. Writer/director David Durston (ABC’s Tales of ...
Windows up. Doors locked. Such is the paranoid view that David Cronenberg’s Rabid presents in his commercial follow-up to his debut, Shivers. Quebec and Montréal, due to a highly suspect procedure received by Rose, the lead character actress Marilyn Chambers ...
While the results are far from perfect, The Neptune Factor probably began its life as an imagined undersea adventure with some unexpected moments of the bizarre. It’s certainly creative with what it offers, but the results are beyond disappointing. The film cuts its characters ...
It came from outer space to eat the living! With this tag, Fred Olen Ray’s The Alien Dead arrived in theaters. This was his first theatrically released film and, while it underperformed, there’s no denying that a legacy for schlock was born. While the B-movie disappeared ...
