The horror of Phyllis Diller
I never would have expected Phyllis Diller to enter the horror zone, but by the late 80s, Jason, Freddy, Michael, and Chucky had made horror so cool that everyone was doing it. Of course, Phyllis first made her mark on … Continue reading
Direct-to-DVD: the gay and homoerotic horror flicks of Alex Dove
So Alex Dove made a few gay horror flix in 2003 before “coming out” as director Alex Pucci with his awesome 80s throwback slasher Camp Slaughter. I’m shocked Zombies and Das Hause haven’t gotten heavy rotation on Logo TV. ZOMBIES … Continue reading
Would you stand by your man if he went all Mutants on you?
The English title for this French film is Mutants, but the bottom line is, these hideous being are zombies or infected or whatever you want to call people turning into gnarly flesh eaters. We don’t get any explanation for the … Continue reading

1 short film short of a gay ghouls horror anthology!
If you’re looking for a gay slasher, look elsewhere. Director Jeff London’s double feature DVD has two short films that take an old school approach—tension building slow burner with one big monster reveal zinger at the end. When Darkness Falls … Continue reading

A CGI slasher, an 80s throwback, and a horror comedy
Headless Horseman, The Revenant, and Bloody Homecoming. Which was my fave? HEADLESS HORSEMAN (2007) Headless Horseman takes the classic story…and makes it a backwoods slasher. A group of kids is headed for a party. There are some pumpkins in their … Continue reading

The zombedy that’s actually about flesh-eating demons
Dead Before Dawn is a teen comedy that happens to have demons in it. Although, they are really just zombies being called demons. So this kid’s grandfather owns an occult shop, and there’s this skull urn the kid has been … Continue reading
Men, murder, and mayhem: the horror flix of Pete Jacelone
If David DeCoteau’s homoerotic fluff has got you down, you really must turn to Pete Jacelone’s hardcore hunky horror to get you up. It’s probably the perverse exploitative kick in the ass you’ve been bent over waiting for. Pete makes … Continue reading

Night of the Living Dead Resurrection was so not dead on arrival as expected….
If it weren’t for haters all over the Internet, I don’t think I would find any movies I actually like. Maybe I have terrible taste—if the general population despises a movie, I’m generally a fan of it, if they love … Continue reading
There’s a demon in Cameron’s Closet, and sadly, it’s not his mom’s hunky boyfriend
I can’t believe Tab Hunter went from the glory days of singing “Reproduction” in 82 to getting offed in the first five minutes of Cameron’s Closet in 88. The movie really gives mixed signals; we get that sweeping Spielberg-esque opening … Continue reading

Spanish horror double feature DVD – zombies and slashers!
So I watched a 2-on-1 DVD double feature of two Spanish horror films: zombie flick Cemetery of Terror from 1985 and slasher Grave Robbers from 1990. These are some pretty whacky movies! Cemetery of Terror is a load of 80s … Continue reading
