A trio of supernatural fiends from the late 80s

Posted on June 8, 2015 by Daniel

VHS vamps and demons! I look at three cheesy films from 1988, 1989, and 1990. They would have made a semi-fulfilling triple feature rental back then, and they’d make a good bargain bin 3-on-1 DVD release today. All three suffer … Continue reading →

The rest of Herschell GOREdon Lewis!

Posted on April 9, 2015 by Daniel

I’ve covered the Herschell Gordon Lewis Blood Trilogy here and here. After those films, Lewis continued grinding the meat…I mean, churning out the horror flicks. Things got campier, more disgusting, and more cheesy bad. The only reason to watch some … Continue reading →

Teenage Space Vampires – when the alien vampires are scary but the movie isn’t

Posted on January 22, 2015 by Daniel

The 1999 film Teenage Space Vampires is a throwback to creature features of the 1950s and 1960s…right down to its rather “family fun” feel. I believe it was actually made for TV. It’s the kind of film you show to … Continue reading →

Posted on December 4, 2014 by Daniel
