Detour (2003)

detour_01

Part of the way through this, I realized it was pretty much the same plot of the Hills have Eyes remake, right down to the broken down RV, and mutated hillbillies. However, despite the other movie having more professional gore elements, I did find this one much more entertaining. Off the bat, you can tell…


Tetsuo (1989)

ttim_01

Movies like Tetsuo are not for the faint of heart. If you’re even the slightest bit squeamish about violence, then steer clear of this. It’s not so much that the violence is so over-the-top is the fact that it’s so visceral and raw. Most of the violence revolves around physical mutation, a person’s body grotesquely…


Half-Caste (2004)

halfcaste_1

Movies trying to achieve the shot-on-video look usually just end up succeeding. But this success results in much failure. Combine that with trying to make it feel like a genuine documentary gone wrong, and then combine the fact that I only took a couple screenshots in an attempt to write as little as possible, and…


Hell of the Living Dead (1980)

hotld_00

Our story begins at a HOPE station in New Guinea where some egghead scientists are surely cooking up some kind of perverse affront to God’s creation. The viewer is not immediately privy to what kind of work they’re doing, but the answer becomes all too clear in a matter of seconds. Some scientists in hazard…


Blood Car (2007)

I really wasn’t sure what to make of this movie after watching it the first time. Right off the bat (well throughout the whole movie really), many things are so very very wrong. However the director makes it very clear that this movie won’t be taking itself very seriously. The silliness of the scenarios does…


Slugs: The Movie (1988)

slugs_1

When you think of slugs, you probably don’t immediately think ravenous killers. Well you should, because they will kill you and not even feel bad about it. Now while we haven’t been graced, at this point, with a modern release for Night of the Creeps, I suppose we’ll have to solely exist on this slug-based…


Accion Mutante (1993)

mal_01

Wow, what a weird movie. Seriously, this one takes the cake. It has a cold open with a guy yelling and some deranged people tying him up. After he struggles for a bit they talk about the logistics and determine that the cost of the kidnapping won’t be covered by the random. Then the guy…


Terror Toons 1.5 (2006)

tt15_1

This isn’t really a movie, but since we all love Terror Toons so much and want bit parts in the next one, I’ll give this short a review. Found on the Terror Toons 2 DVD extras, 1.5 brings back some of the characters from the original classic but with another family. The main girl starts…


Dead Leaves (2004)

dead_01

‘Ope, an anime review. It’s all going downhill from here. Or is it? Nah, probably not. Dead Leaves is what I would imagine Blues Brothers would be like as a cartoon with more violence and a shot of acid. The story revolves around a woman named Pandy, because of a red dot around her right…


Bio-Zombie (1998)

bioz_01

I just want everyone to know how hard it was to capture screenshots for this movie. I use VLC for most of my movie reviews as do my colleagues and if the film is shot on digital, you have a tendency to end up with a lot of these choppy, scan-line photos. That being said,…
