Stream Queen 9: a bunch of horror comedies
With this foursome, I got a little of everything: low budget to well-polished; zombies to the supernatural; good to bad. ZOMBIE WEREWOLVES ATTACK! (2009) It can only be uphill from here. The animated horror intro gave me high hopes … Continue reading

I’ve had the 1997 movie Black Circle Boys in my collection for a while (that’s about to change now that I’ve watched it again), and honestly, I seriously thought this was a David DeCoteau film. It’s pretty gay, it’s supposedly … Continue reading

Even the 80s can’t save these three…
Yes, I’m guilty of saying (constantly) that anything 80s is perfect, but I will call out the occasional flaws. So here go three occasions. BOARDING HOUSE (1982) When the intro credits to an early 80s horror flick begin with … Continue reading

Sex and Scares: It’s horror porn fun!
Before I get to Quad X: The Porn Movie Massacre, I must briefly cover the “prequel,” Quad X: Rise of the Beaver Slayer. QUAD X: RISE OF THE BEAVER SLAYER (2014) This first film is not a horror comedy, it’s … Continue reading

Bowie, boys, and a gay-themed episode of The Hunger
It wasn’t until I was putting together a tribute to David Bowie for Boys, Bears & Scares after his death that I learned he hosted a horror anthology TV show named after his 1983 vampire film. The Hunger aired for … Continue reading

Low-budget horror anthology Hole in the Wall is all about the “WTF am I watching?” effect. The wraparound doesn’t make much sense, and the stories aren’t really stories, but you will be bombarded by some fucked up shit. If the … Continue reading
