Masters of Horror: The Black Cat
Stewart Gordon is what I've always called the Lovecraft expert of film. In fact many people believe that, however this time he tackles the work of a another horror legend in Edgar Allen Poe. The Black Cat; one of Poe's famous tales is the subject of this film, and...
Bite Me
Here's another film from Shock-O-Rama/ EI Cinema, yeah it's low budget, and stars their usual girls and guy actors, and it's got all the cheese of a B-movie. But I liked this one for some reason, It had bad special effects and layers upon layers of images that just...

Bite Me
The first thing that comes to mind when thinking of a Brett Piper film is that we are going to divulge the next hour or so into a stop motion monster fest. You like what Ray Harryhausen did for the genre back in the KONG KONG and CLASH OF THE TITAN days? Then I think...
City Slab #8 – Magazine Review

Birth Rite
The overall concept behind this film is pretty good for a low budget horror film, the acting is not all that bad and the production value is very good. The script however did not work well for me as I really would have liked to get to know some of the characters...

NoShame Films have just released The Big Alligator River, a 1979 Sergio Martino “animal revenge” film, on a beautiful digitally remastered DVD. While Alligator River can best be described as “Jaws in the jungle” (with, obviously, an alligator in the shark’s place), it...

As noted in the editorial, Issue # 3 of Surreal Magazine might well be described as the interview issue. Several outstanding interviews are featured in this issue including Joe R. Lansdale, and Charlaine Harris of the Southern Vampire series. Surreal is aptly name as...
Tabard Inn #1 – Magazine Review
Tabard Inn #1 is a new, non-paying zine, tangibly horror but that runs the gamut from hard-boiled gay fiction to speculative work. As Editor/Publisher John Bruni states in the issue’s introduction, the fiction in Tabard Inn is extreme, yet thought-provoking. He...
