The Last Lovecraft (2010)
I’m a big fan of H.P. Lovecraft. The man was a genius and a creative juggernaut whose Cthulu mythos still live on today. Unfortunately any direct representation of his literature on film has always been lackluster compared to the original material. The Last Lovecraft takes from the mythos and pays tribute to the man while [...]
Robogeisha (2009)
Recently I had the opportunity to view the latest J-gore flick from the makers of the Machine Girl and Tokyo Gore Police. I was super pumped on watching it given the insane trailer posted ages ago. I figured if the trailer was that crazy/awesome the movie must be right? Sort of. The story of Robogeisha [...]
Vampire Girl Vs Frankenstein Girl (2010)
I love me some J-Gore. I’ve reviewed several films from the current wave and I’m always hungry for more. After the disappointing Samurai Princess and the laughable Sukebanboy, we finally get a film that can proudly stand next to Tokyo Gore Police and The Machine Girl, and of course its from the same guys that [...]
Burning Bright (2010)
Rarely do films with outlandish synopsi turn out to be any good. Sure it has potential for being so bad it’s good, (Shark Attack 3 anyone?) but never are they actually good. Burning Bright broke the mold and gives all us funky film lovers something to hope for and aspire to. Set in the dirty [...]
Mom (1991)
Netflix, have I told you lately that I love you? Earlier this month Netflix added a ton of films to their watch it now department, this time with an awesome twist. Many of the films added have had no official DVD release, and may never have one! That’s right gem hunters the time to join [...]
Killing Spree (1987)
Killing Spree is a film by Tim Ritter, director of the Truth Or Dare films. Honestly I’ve only seen the first in the series and it was pretty underwhelming. Considering he did it when he was 18, its pretty damn good but I wouldn’t watch it again. I love the retro 80′s film series from [...]
Inseminoid (1982)
I love sci-fi/horror hybrids. From Event Horizon to Dark City to Alien, Sci-Fi and Horror are two great tastes that taste great together. Because of the success of Alien in ’79, there came quite a few cheeseball rip offs, most notably Galaxy of Terror as well as other Roger Corman knock off flicks. Some focused [...]
Redneck Zombies (1987)
As I’ve mentioned before I’m tired of zombies. Tired of new zombie flicks, tired of zombie novels, tired of zombies period. I LOVE zombies but right now there’s just too much out there to get me excited. Candy is great too until you’ve had too much. You still like candy though right? You just don’t [...]
Attack of the Beast Creatures (1985)
What can I say about this strangely entertaining horror film from 1985? While I give it props for being a must see film for those of us who enjoy films of this sort, I have to say this was bad for a B-movie. Stranded on a strange island a group of people must find a [...]
Galaxy of Terror (1981)
I love cheesy old exploitation flicks. Films created on the fringes to attract audiences on sheer shock value alone. Roger Corman’s New World Pictures specialized in such films that were scant on budget but big on sleaze. Galaxy of Terror finds itself in the pantheon of Corman’s excess but where on that scoreboard of sleaze [...]
