Posted on December 4, 2014 by Daniel

Richard Griffin’s indie flix celebrate the sex, gore, and campy goodness of 70s and 80s horror, exploitation, and grindhouse movies (I blog about most of them here) so I’m always psyched when a new one comes around. This time he … Continue reading →

Battle of the indie slashers: Gore, Quebec vs. Sledge!

Posted on October 28, 2014 by Daniel
