Seasons of Loons: Rent gets [REC]ed in Condemned
The derelict apartment building in Condemned didn’t even need an infection to spread for it to be batshit crazy. In fact, a good chunk of the film focuses on the tenants of this place, who are fucked up before the … Continue reading

Note that if you are going to watch Dude Bro Party Massacre III on Blu-ray and would rather not have that 80s shot-on-video grindhouse look (the movie is presented as having been a lost film), go to the special features … Continue reading
“BRAINS!” or, zombies that think with their dicks – The Taint

STREAM QUEEN: zombies, zombies, zombies! Sort of…
The latest threesome I checked out expecting straight-up zombie movies had some surprises in store for me. DEVOURED: THE LEGEND OF ALFERD PACKER (2005) I guess you could say I’m not saving the best for last. So glad this one … Continue reading

STREAM QUEEN 12: are they worth the bandwidth?
I had high low-expectations for these three, but it turns out even that was too much for them to live up to…. THE LAST SHOWING (2014) I guess you could say The Last Showing is a psychological thriller more than … Continue reading

The man of your dreams wants to stick it to you. Get the lube…and body bag!

They came at the end of the 80s VHS horror era. So which is better, I Was a Teenage Zombie or Ghoul School? I WAS A TEENAGE ZOMBIE (1987) This fantastic low-budget mess is a teen horror comedy that needed … Continue reading
