1989 Troma children zombies vs. 1998 Troma ass crack zombies
One thing is for sure—it’s never dull writing about Troma films. Here we have cannibal kids from the end of the 80s, and cannibal crack from the end of the 90s, and they are two very different experiences. BEWARE – … Continue reading

Stream Queen: 5 quickies
A hit and miss weekend for me as I tried to chip away at my list of horror to stream—and even interrupted that list with a couple of titles that have received some positive praise recently. Remind me to never … Continue reading

“BRAINS!” or, zombies that think with their dicks – The Taint
Sure, The Taint is a totally tasteless gore flick, but if you miss the days when Troma movies were more than just fart noises and shit visuals (back in the 80s) and actually stuck to a horror theme while still … Continue reading

Stream Queen 14: where in hell has your soul gone?
What do you know? A selection of three streaming movies, and I actually didn’t loathe any of them. I’ll admit, it’s due in large part to the fact that I just love creatures with soulless eyes and a really weak … Continue reading
The made-for-TV movies of Lamberto Bava
Actually, these are only two of four Bava films made for a cable series back in 1987, the other two being Until Death and The Ogre. The Ogre was eventually released as one of the many bogus “sequels” to Demons … Continue reading

STREAM QUEEN 12: are they worth the bandwidth?
I had high low-expectations for these three, but it turns out even that was too much for them to live up to…. THE LAST SHOWING (2014) I guess you could say The Last Showing is a psychological thriller more than … Continue reading

Music and the munchies….
Horror…music…comedy. Not quite. None of these three films about singing flesh and blood eaters manages to hit the mark on all three counts. CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL (1993) Before South Park became a hit, Trey Parker and Matt Stone wrote this … Continue reading
Stream Queen 10: from supernatural to slashers
My latest streaming selections include a prison with an unseen presence, a slumber party slasher with plenty of half-naked babes, and a Euro horror film that has it all—a psycho killer, ghosts, and the undead! INSIDE (2012) Is it a … Continue reading
IT HAPPENED AFTER SCREAM Part 2: David DeCoteau cashes in….
In the years following the release of Scream, when slapping a bunch of pretty faces across a DVD cover was all the rage, David DeCoteau gave the practice his personal touch, making most of those pretty faces those of boys. … Continue reading

Making sense of a classic Ed Wood disaster with a remake!
If it weren’t for his inept storytelling, Ed Wood would have been the original king of the zombie genre, beating Romero by nearly a decade with his 1959 film Plan 9 from Outer Space. Instead, the film is infamous for … Continue reading
