The Broken
Although best known to date for making the high concept Brit comedy CASHBACK, several years ago Sean Ellis made a directorial mark in the horror genre with the superior, menacing short film LEFT TURN. The imperfect but eerie BROKEN confirms his ability to wring...
Breeders
It should be enough to merely state that Tim Kincaid’s Breeders is the progeny of an individual whose canon is largely comprised of direct-to-video productions. Sadly, this isn’t enough. What makes this particular film especially decrepit is that fact it holds the...
The Breed
From executive producer Wes Craven (does he actually know his name is on all these movies?) comes an old school, straight-forward revenge-of-nature flick, much in the vein of Robert Clouse’s THE PACK (1976). If you were feeling uncharitably picky, you could use...
The Breed
As I was watching The Breed, my question of whether or not the director had ever seen a movie was answered when two of his characters make mention of Bambi. Granted, this is issuing optimistic benefit of the doubt twice over in that 1) such could be due to the...
Bram Stoker’s Dracula
One of the highest grossing films of all-time, Francis Ford Coppola’s Bram Stoker’s Dracula is an operatic attempt to faithfully adapt the writer’s masterpiece to the big screen. However, Coppola failed to ask one crucial question prior to green lighting the Zoetrope...
Welcome to the Jungle
I love L.A. It’s taken six years to get to where I’m at within my social & professional posture and yet there are new Easter eggs each and every day. A few weeks back, my industry narc contacted me about a test screening of a film and asked if I’d ever heard of it....
Welcome to the Jungle
I first heard of Welcome to the Jungle when it was merely being test screened by dimension and our own Jack Reher was the first person to review the movie. Thus, the reason why the site is quoted on both the front and back covers of the DVD. Why I don't think the film...
Welcome to the Grindhouse: The Teacher/Pick Up
It's funny how in today's video and low budget market that most of the horror films need to have some kind of nudity in order for a distributor to pick it up. I even had a company once tell me they would only pick up a comedy film I produced if we re-shoot as scene...

Welcome to the Grindhouse: Black Candles/Evil Eye
Welcome to the Grind House Double Feature of Black Candles & Evil Eyes is the first of a two disc series released by BCI Eclipse and Deimos Entertainment. Both films on the disc revolve around a cult based plot full of black magic and a lot of straight forward sexual...

Masters of Horror: We All Scream For Ice Cream
When I was a child, my mother had my room decorated with clowns. She never understood why when I was a kid I never wanted to sleep in my room. It was always because those dam clowns scared the shit out of me. I never told her this until I was twenty one years old,...
WAZ
Here’s a nightmarish noir based around the population geneticist George R Price’s mathematical equation of W delta Z. Price’s theory disproved the existence of altruism and claimed that the concept of selflessness was a fallacy. This bleak conclusion is matched by the...
Watchmen
I never knew much about WATCHMEN until a few years ago when co-workers of mine introduced me to the story and talked about it being one of the best graphic novels they ever had read. A few months ago, one of my good friends let me borrow the graphic novel so I could...
Wasting Away
In a time when even the stand-out new zombie movies (like DIARY OF THE DEAD) are treading on familiar ground both stylistically and thematically, it’s rare to find an entry in the genre that demonstrates both originality and wit. WASTING AWAY does just that in its...
