It took a while to wrap my brain around the fact that this was a Tobe Hooper film. It almost seemed too good. Not to say he’s just in the realm of silly b-movies, but a high scale sci-fi action flick just didn’t seem to match. But then again it’s about space vampires in the…
Infestation (2009)
This was actually a pretty good movie. While attacking bugs scenarios have been done many times before, this movie does attempt to provide a new spin on the situation. Much like Shaun of the Dead, we’re presented with a slacker’s take on the events as he goes about his meaningless day and is thrown head-first…
Witchmaster General (2009)
It’s hard to admit when one is wrong, but in this case I have to plead guilty. I first loaded this up and saw the mini-DV quality movie start. Now mind you I didn’t take offense to this, as I do tend to like homebrewed efforts, but more often than not a chance to be…
Wrong Turn 3 (2009)
I often get Wrong Turn mixed up with Joy Ride. Each involves a car ride (sans cliche somehow) and a young actress who sells the movie by being on the cover. Well the Wrong Turn series is the one about inbred cannibals, so I suppose I should keep that in mind. I find it hard…
Pig Hunt (2008)
Forests and hillbillies are usually a combination for a lower budget production in order to hide said lack of money. The sets are free, and a little dirt will put anyone into character. However Pig Hunt ended up being a much better production that a typical entry. After the obligatory scene were a person we…
Inseminoid (1981)
If you told me that the first thing I was going to see, after countless millennia of slumber, was a “Z-grade” film about an alien that impregnates women, I would have stayed buried. Imagine my chagrin when I was unearthed for the sole purpose of reviewing this film and others like it. Inseminoid‘s story isn’t…
Blacula (1972)
This movie has been on my list for a while. Since the beginning of my B-movie obsession in fact. Along with Dolemite, this is said to be one of the staples of blaxploitation era films. However after viewing this, it was far from being exploitative in many senses. William Marshall as Blacula plays his role…
Student Bodies (1981)
It seems like recently, only a few movies can come out before they are lumped into the parody movie of the month. Most of these don’t really have a plot. There’s a basic flow and a few characters, but mostly they are a series of scene re-enactments where everything it set up as close to…
Murder Party (2007)
Once in a while, you rent a random movie and it just blows you away. Not because it’s so great (although personally I would still argue the case), but because it just grabs a different angle and then takes you on a crazy ride. Murder Party is less of a horror movie than a dark…
Trick ‘r Treat (2008)
Most everyone has seen Creepshow and most everyone like Creepshow. So that said, we have a new movie that follows in the same tradition of smaller interwoven stories and for the most part it works. The movie follows four main tales, each of which crosses paths at some point. The movie starts with a young…
