    I’ve been putting off posting this film because it’s way too cerebral to fully explain, but recent developments in its restoration have prompted me to discuss it finally. When Metropolis first debuted in Germany it ran about three hours long. Despite its length, it had great reviews. Thankfully so because it turned out to…

   I personally really love this movie, it’s a freaking laugh riot! I mean, I know it’s a complete ripoff of The Exorcist and is intended to be just as scary, but the exorcism takes place in a disco tech and the demon spouts some seriously funny jive-ass lines without a single curse word as…

    Ok, so most cult films tend to be more on the older side because a cult following usually takes time, but now and then a cult film can be relatively new if it manages to get enough of a following within just a few years. In this case, The Poughkeepsie Tapes definitively achieved this.…

Being that it’s a comedic musical drenched with Yiddish humor…

     Liquid Sky is without a doubt the most colorful movie I’ve ever seen. Besides being shot in what I like to call “psychedeliscope”, it also cashed in on the whole luridly multicolored non-gender-specific early 1980s.        Margaret is a fashion model and lives in a penthouse in Manhattan. She also lives…

    Wow, what can one say about Nekromantik? Being a cult movie master, I thought I had seen it all… I was so DEAD wrong. Nekromantik is a story about a little German guy with an unpronounceable name who has a job as part of a cleanup crew for grisly car accidents.       …
