One is no The Craft, one is no Drop Dead Fred, and one is no—well, I can’t say or it would spoil the third movie a bit. But are any of these flix worth a watch despite the fact that … Continue reading

#KilljoySoWhite…and…#KindOfGay
Want a prime example of how OCD can destroy lives? Even though I should have stopped after the franchise took a turn for the worse with the third film, I’m still buying Killjoy movies on DVD because I began way … Continue reading
TRIPLE FEATURE TIME: torture porn, creature feature comedy, and backwoods slasher
This trio from 2006-2007 gives us a low budget yet hardcore gore porn experience, some cheesy SyFy slime creature fun, and a crazy backwoods family terrorizing kids at a cabin in the woods. These are probably not movies you’d seek … Continue reading

Big Bad Richard Tyson doing what he does best…
Playing the big bad boy, the way I’ll always remember him thanks to Three O’Clock High back in 1987. It may not be a horror film, but I blog about it here because it was sexy scary for sure. Since … Continue reading
STREAM QUEEN: a double dose of exploitation slashers
I use the term slasher in the most general sense because in each case, there’s a killer and a body count. But really, Phantom of the Grindhouse and The Greasy Strangler are purely trash cinema. PHANTOM OF THE GRINDHOUSE (2013) … Continue reading

STREAM QUEEN: Field Freak vs. The Monster!
I picked these two newer titles off Amazon Prime for a creature double feature with no knowledge of what I was getting myself into beyond the brief descriptions of each movie. It was luck of the draw this time, because … Continue reading

A horror hospital, a cabin in the woods, and a bloody haunted attraction
Sometimes, you’re better off alone, as demonstrated by three films from the 2000s that show what can happen when pretty people hang out in groups… CANDY STRIPERS (2006) This is the kind of flick that makes me nostalgic for teen … Continue reading

VHS era nostalgia isn’t enough to make these two winners
Just as the love of VHS horror will never die, it seems neither will the efforts of indie horror directors to replicate that feeling in their movies. In my efforts to forever find movies that actually do it right, I … Continue reading
STREAM QUEEN: undeniably compelling haunted attraction double feature
As bad as they can be, I’m a total sucker for low budget horror that pretty much looks like it was filmed over a weekend at some haunting attraction in the director’s hometown during the month of October. So I … Continue reading
