Okay, I’m back, and Full Moon is on my mind. As I continue to pour through their catalog, I finally obtained a movie that almost acted as the resurgence of their modern incarnation. Charles Band made it a mission to start producing upwards of four to five movies a year, just as they did in…
VLOG (2008)
So with the rest of the crew doing their VLogs, I figured I’d chime in. Not with an actual vlog, as I’m far too lazy, so instead I’ll just do one about the horrific movie: VLOG. Let’s take a history lesson that I’m all too embarrassed to recall. Dig back a decade, give or take…
Doctor Mordrid (1992)
Doctor Mordrid is further proof that Jeffrey Combs can do no wrong. I dare you to find a movie that he wasn’t good in. You can’t. Sure the movies may not be good, but he throws himself into every character treating them as serious as any A list performance should be. The production of Doctor…
Crash and Burn (1990)
Here we have a pseudo-hold over from Charles Band’s Empire days. While not a real sequel, as Robot Wars fits that a little better as a followup to Robot Jox, it does lift some archival footage in order to achieve the climax of the movie. The movie title is even an homage to Robot Jox…
Meridian (1990)
Slowly we move through the Full Moon offerings. I say slowly since I never update anymore, and we’ll probably reach Evil Bong 3 shortly before my death. Maybe Bride of Head of the Family will even be released by then. Miracles may happen, but somehow I doubt that Jacqueline Lovell will be back. [break] So…
Jack-O (1995)
Wow, what a glorious mess. I had seen this reviewed on something awful a while back (10 years), and they tore it apart. But then they also tore apart my beloved Jack Frost 2, so I’m thinking they just aren’t the proper audience to enjoy b-movies. Jack-O has all of the formulas of a genuine…
Hack-O-Lantern (1988)
80’s horror can at times be divided into two age group camps: Adults and children, and then others that just deal with teens or young adults acting like teen. Hack-o-lantern starts out like the former, but then switches gears half way through. The movie begins with a child and creepy grandfather meeting at a pumpkin…
Lurking Fear (1994)
We’ve covered Lovecraftian movies in the past, and they usually run all over the place. Some deal more with intangible entities while others delve into technological aspects of the occult. With Lurking Fear, we have Jeffrey Combs in one of his many roles simply fighting off underground creatures who don’t get much sun. Most of…
Bad Channels (1992)
Here’s another early entry from Full Moon, but they certainly started showing their campy side. Not a way that it became self-parody, but almost in the way most 80’s comedies with the Corey’s were portrayed. I didn’t have much expectations for this movie, and I really hadn’t heard about it as much as many of…
Netherworld (1992)
I have a strong dislike for this movie, and it has nothing to do with the actual plot or really anything else. For some reason I just can’t seem to tie the title with the actual movie. Case in point: I first saw this either on sci-fi or some other cable channel many years ago,…
