Abel Ferrara’s The Driller Killer is an interesting affair in that its popularity and reputation lies largely within its being one of the first “Video Nasties” banned in Europe. However, the irony stands in that The Driller Killer fails to hold even the vaguest light...

I first heard of director Tim Sullivan when I reviewed 2001 Maniacs a few years back. I really enjoyed Maniacs and once my review went live, Tim himself dropped me an e-mail thanking me for the review. Since then Tim has worked on many projects, but one of them that I...

I have often said that when you do something great in life, few will recognize what you have done. Kill someone and you live in the minds of people forever. Such is the case with every famous serial killer, and once again, another one is idolized in the direct to DVD...

Yeah, the title of this film might make you think it's just some stupid, low budget, low rate dumb ass horror film. Well in a sense it is but it's not. The movie pokes fun at those stupid film and at horror films in general. It's actually very very funny. I was on the...

If you take Michael Myer’s genesis in John Carpenter’s Halloween, the witticisms of Freddy Kruger in Craven’s A Nightmare in Elm Street, and wrap it around an insane heart surgeon for an antagonist, you have Manny Coto’s Dr. Giggles. However, Coto is by no means...

In all honesty "The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath" was a good telling of the classic H.P. Lovecraft story, however the lack of moment and black and white comic like stills that made up this film bored me. Now not to say that the story was bad, matter of fact it was...

You know there are just some films, no matter how low budget they look or feel that you just can't help but over look the effect and realize that that the story and characters are not all that bad. Such is the fact with this little Sci-fi film entitled "Dream Parlor"...

No one covers H.P, Lovecraft stories better than veteran horror director and Lovecraft extraordinaire Stuart Gordon. So it was no surprise to myself that Mr. Gordon choose an H.P. Lovecraft story to use while making his Masters of Horror episode. This episode of...

Here is another episode of Masters of Horror titled Dream Cruise from director Norio Tusuruta (Ring Ø: Birthday, Premonition). Dream Cruise is based on a short story from writer Kôji Suzuki whom wrote the novels for The Ring and Dark Water. Dream Cruise is a Asian...

A remarkably creepy and bold adaptation of a Book of Blood Volume II novella, continuing the current Clive Barker movie cycle begun by MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN and BOOKS OF BLOOD. Writer/director Anthony DiBlasi expertly expands on concepts and characters from the original...

Dragon Wars is a film that was the first attempt for Korean filmmakers to make an American based movie. However it failed at the box office to produce big numbers and was quickly pulled by Sony. Needless to say, what could of easily been a great and fun movie to watch...

One of the last animated series I ever really got into was in my late college days when the Cartoon Network played episode after episode of DRAGONBALL Z. I always was fascinated by the characters and the over-the-top use of magic and martial arts. The storyline is...

DRAG ME TO HELL is a horror film that fooled the studio. Bare with me here. I went into this film thinking that all the advanced positive reviews on the film were just coming from the fans who have a hard-on for Sam Raimi. For myself the trailer did the film no...

Lambert Hillyer, by way of suggestion from David O. Selznick, the man who gave us such masterpieces as The Third Man, Rebecca, Gone with the Wind, and King Kong, creates a strikingly cunning sequel to the original Dracula with the help of co-writer Garrett Fort who...

With The Curse of Frankenstein and Dracula (the latter retitled Horror of Dracula in America to avoid confusion with the Browning version, which was still playing in theaters twenty-seven years later) at the helm, director Terence Fisher created a series of films,...
