80s horror and a 90s straggler – one each from 1982, 1988, and 1996
Just a brief mish-mosh of 80s horror and 90s horror odds and ends from the VHS era. This time around: a Fulci film, an HP Lovecraft adaptation, and a “family” horror flick. MANHATTAN BABY (1982) It’s hard to comprehend that … Continue reading

As usual, my DVR is starting to get cluttered with stuff I recorded off SyFy, so the results of sitting through three of the films on there are as expected, from indie stuff to a major Hollywood bomb. To think … Continue reading

Vampire sequel vs. zombie comedy
One of my favorite indie vamp films gets a straight-to-SyFy sequel, and an indie zomcom tries to jam Halloween, zombies, and a ghost all into one plot. Was I left satisfied with either film? Let’s see…. STAKE LAND 2 (2016) … Continue reading

40 years of man-eating lesbian VAMPYRES
It took Artsploitation Films, responsible for some outstanding indie horror in the past few years, to get me to not only watch a remake about lesbian vampires, but to go back and watch the original Vampyres from over 40 years … Continue reading
83 and 89 – demons, a costumed killer, a werewolf, and vampires
Cleaning 1980s horror house, here is the latest batch of weird crap I came up with from the VHS era that isn’t the usual slasher. THE ALCHEMIST (1983) Directed by Charles Band, who would go on to create Full Moon … Continue reading

Perkins: still a psycho in the 1990s
Right up until his death in 1992, Anthony Perkins continued appearing in horror films and thrillers…and almost had his own horror TV show! I covered several of his psychotic non-Psycho roles here, so how about some more? DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS … Continue reading

Vamps and Club Dead – these clubs suck so hard everyone wants in
Vamp was a favorite of mine in the days when HBO and MTV ruled my teen world, so when I watched the indie vampire comedy Club Dead, I knew immediately I had a double feature blog on my hands! VAMP … Continue reading
When you’re done eating me, could you drink me?
I’m seeing the gay vampire film Drink Me getting trashed as just more terrible softcore gay porn posing as a horror movie. I’d have to disagree considering this is an erotic vampire film. No, it’s not the usual erotic vampire … Continue reading

A triple feature of nothing new or original, but it was still fun while it lasted
With some of the crap marathons I get myself into, it’s pretty satisfying to have a weekend of watching horror movies that might consist of films I may never need to see again, but which entertained me in the moment. … Continue reading
