80s horror and b-movie Cult Trash part 3
Sometimes, marathons of lost 80s crap and 80s horror are a fresh change from the same old shit we’ve seen a million times. So I take on three more forgettable—I mean—forgotten films of the era! INSEMINOID (aka: Horror Planet) (1981) … Continue reading

80s b-movie cult trash part 1
It was the decade when every bad movie had its chance to shine on VHS…and these flicks still failed. Here’s my first triple feature of 80s b-movie cult trash! VOYAGE OF THE ROCK ALIENS (1984) I can barely contain myself … Continue reading

A dream come true: Kat Dennings as a goth chick in a horror comedy
Suburban Gothic is the kind of movie I would have watched repeatedly on cable back in the 1980s as a teenager (Do kids still do that?). It’s quirky, a little dirty, and even has some thrilling scary scenes. Not to … Continue reading
Time warping back to the 1980s Bible belt
It’s no surprise that The Bible Belt Slasher director and star Bradley Creanzo looks like 1980s Tommy Shaw of Styx. His franchise begins with a half hour short that is straight up slasher trash that could have come from the … Continue reading

Naked zombies and a killer ass
More horror comedy trash from Mark Pirro, the man who brought us Curse of the Queerwolf (blog) and Deathrow Gameshow (blog). And these are possibly two of his best. NUDIST COLONY OF THE DEAD (1991) A zombie musical! Nudist Colony … Continue reading

A trio of supernatural fiends from the late 80s
VHS vamps and demons! I look at three cheesy films from 1988, 1989, and 1990. They would have made a semi-fulfilling triple feature rental back then, and they’d make a good bargain bin 3-on-1 DVD release today. All three suffer … Continue reading
Teen Witch vs. Werewolf Mom!
I can never get enough of cute comedies featuring loved ones turning into some sort of supernatural creature or gaining magic powers—especially if they came from the 80s! But are 1989 films Teen Witch and My Mom’s a Werewolf worthy of the … Continue reading

Stephen King’s Maximum Overdrive vs. Trucks
Two movie adaptations of a Stephen King short story made nearly a decade apart. So how do they compare? MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE (1986) Stephen King directs and has admitted to being burnt on coke at the time. It’s a 1980s movie—it’s … Continue reading
