Direct-to-DVD: The slashers of Tommy Faircloth
Horror reality kind of bit in the 90s before Scream came along and rejuvenated the slasher genre. But a year before Scream, director Tommy Faircloth made an indie film that parodied the slashers of the 80s and spoke directly to … Continue reading
It’s time for two nightmares from the 1980s!
Zombie Nightmare and Nightmare Weekend were the types of films you rented at the video store when you’d seen every other horror movie in the place. And when you were done, you wished you’d just rented Friday the 13th for … Continue reading
If the title Inbred isn’t a dead giveaway, think See No Evil meets 2000 Maniacs….
While not a particularly frightening experience, Inbred should satisfy fans of the backwoods inbreed genre and splatter gore. It’s a smorgasbord of dark humor, torture, and siege film, all delivered in a kindler, gentler way. Two youth workers take a … Continue reading
Two times the scream divas in a Halloween horror flick
Okay. So I’ll get the bad news out of the way immediately. If you check out Hallows’ Eve to see a Halloween horror movie starring both Danielle Harris and Tiffany Shepis, you’ve come to the wrong place. They have even … Continue reading
Breaking down the lost scenes from the Halloween 1, 2 and 4 novelizations!
Reading Halloween by Curtis Richards and Halloween II by Jack Martin, I can remember them as if it was October 1981 again and I’d just read them for the first time. They are deliciously fast reads that simply make the … Continue reading

For a good time on Halloween, enter the Scare Zone!
It’s official. I found a new favorite horror comedy to watch at Halloween time. I can’t believe this little slice of indie fun from 2009, about a bunch of kids running a Halloween horror house attraction, hasn’t gotten more buzz. … Continue reading
A triple-feature of horror cheese that makes me nostalgic for the worst of the 80s
Deadly Blessing (1981) In the 80s, before the dude with the fedora and finger knives, Wes Craven brought us an evil group of Amish in Deadly Blessing. So, there’s this chick and her husband having sex in their home in … Continue reading
Violence of the Mind—when a trick is no treat
While previous films from Scream Kings have been homoerotic or simply featured loads of half-naked guys, Violence of the Mind (aka: Blurred Lines) is the first unabashedly gay film. Directed by Alex Pucci, it stars the beautiful Jon Fleming, who … Continue reading

Men, murder, and mayhem: the horror flix of Pete Jacelone
