  • Carrie

    Carrie

       This is Brian DePalma’s movie adaptation of the #1 best-selling novel by renowned author Stephen King. In fact, Carrie is the first book that King ever wrote. Actually, we have his beloved wife Tabitha to thank for saving this masterpiece. You see, during the course of writing his first novel, King had no confidence…

  • Trick or Treat

    Trick or Treat

       This is a great 80’s period piece. I saw this as a teenager and I loved it, mostly because it’s a “revenge against your high school tormentors” type of movie. Sort of a “Carrie” for guys. Something I and probably thousands of other people can relate to back in those awkward (and sometimes traumatic…

  • Street Trash

    Street Trash

        This gory little 80’s flick has finally gained some notoriety as a cult classic, primarily due to a recent DVD release making it much more accessible.        It’s a simple story really, mostly made to show off some new, impressive, and downright gruesome special effects by a production company known for its…

  • Frightmare

    Frightmare

       This little gem of a movie is quite thought-provoking for a cheap piece of crap made circa 1974.        It starts out in London, in 1957, a man is found with half his head missing. Edmund and his wife Dorothy are arrested, convicted, and sentenced to 25 years in a mental hospital…

  • Sex Madness

    Sex Madness

       This is another one of those over-the-top, ill-informed, propaganda films released in the late 1930s that attempted to inform citizens and save lives, mostly about the dreaded Marijuana!! Reefer Madness is the most popular and well-known of these films and was one of at least three different films made on the topic of the…

  • Robot Monster

    Robot Monster

        Wow, what a piece of doggy doo. This movie is a great example of a movie that is “so bad, it’s still NOT good”. So bad in fact, that it makes the worst of Ed Wood’s films look positively top-drawer.        Released in 1953, this movie has all the hallmarks of a…

  • The Return of the Living Dead

    The Return of the Living Dead

       This is one of my favorite zombie movies ever! Its rotting arms came crawling out of the grave in the late 80s with intensity and surprising originality. This film has absolutely no affiliation with George Romero or his legacy of zombie films (Night of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead, Day of the…

  • Toxic Zombies

    Toxic Zombies

        Pothead Zombies ain’t that a kick in the rubber parts? A truly unique combination, don’t you think?        It starts off with a ripoff reproduction of the beginning of the classic “Night of the Living Dead”. A long winding road with an approaching car, a creepy soundtrack building in the background. Quick…

  • Faces of Death

    Faces of Death

       Released in 1979, “Faces of Death” was banned in over 46 countries until a video boxset containing all six volumes was released on VHS. Only parts 1 and 2 (and a “greatest moments” version containing clips from parts 1 and 2) have been released on DVD.       Dr. Frances B. Gross (great…

  • The Blob

    The Blob

        This is a great stereotypical 50’s cult flick. The Blob also takes the credit for having introduced Steve McQueen to the world as an actor and Burt Bacharach to the world as a composer, and even though the movie is 98% crap, we have at least those two things to be thankful for.   …
