Artie Saves The Hood
Artie Saves the Hood is a video game-esque sci-fi indie film in which a “just your average guy”-type finds a glowing piece of magic soap in his drywall and, with the help of his friend, shoots aliens in gas masks while a girl from another dimension mumbles and talks...
Army of Darkness
Warning: As evidenced by the above rating, if you are a fan of the film and are looking for affirmation of your approval of Army of Darkness, I’m not your “Yes Man.” Now, on with the review. Sam Raimi’s Army of Darkness, the closing chapter in his Evil Dead trilogy,...
Arachnophobia
Famed producer Frank Marshall steps behind the camera for the first time with Arachnophobia, a self-described “thrillomedy” which fails to issue equal amounts of thrills amid its off-again, on-again comedy. However, though not cohesive and, in many respects, a...
Arachnia
Your initial viewing of ARACHNIA’s own underground entity Brett Piper ( DRANIAC, DINOSAUR BABES, A NYMPHOID BARBARIAN IN DINOSAUR HELL, and the ever so cultish RAIDERS OF THE LIVING DEAD), you’ll come up with an overly bad f/x romping scarefest ringing of the monster...
April Fools Day
I saw the original April Fools Day about twenty years ago when it was out on video. It was one of those nights where my friends and I would browse the horror section of the local video store trying to find a film we never saw before. It just so happens April Fools Day...
Apollo 18
There has always been that skeptical crowd that thinks that the human race has never set foot on the moon. That it was all a ploy by the US government to make the world think that we beat the Soviets there. However, what if the reason why we never went back was...
Apocalypto
So you may be saying to yourself, why the hell would Horror Bob review a Mel Gibson movie, that is obviously not a horror film, but more of a history piece. Well if you know anything about the Mayan Civilization, you know that the Mayans were pretty screwed up people....
Apartment 206
Films like this little gem; titled "Apartment 206" are what make independent worth watching. It's so hard to film a low budget independent film, that actually can suck you in and keep your attention. "Apartment 206" does just that as your thrust into a place where...
Antichrist
One of the more interesting end credits of Lars Von Trier’s audacious ANTICHRIST (alongside the first-in-cinema-history listing of “misogyny researcher”) is that of “horror film research”. This suggests what is already apparent from what has gone before - that this is...
Anthropophagus
When I think of exploitation, I think of a film which has no redeeming value whatsoever and is gratuitous in every conceivable manner for the mere sake of notoriety in order to turn a quick and easy buck. This is the problem I have with most of the films found upon...
Angus Valley Farms
I don't know what to say folks. All I know is the company that sent me this film is 0-4 with me. I haven't given one film they sent my way a reviewer higher than a star and a half. The problem is that these films are amateur films that are just a waste of my time....
And Then They Were Dead/ Guilty Pleasures
The double-sided DVD is a fine thing – two films (or in this case, three) for the price of one, all wrapped up in a singular little package. Who can argue with that? Unfortunately, anyone who falls into the trap of bargain basement indie clearing houses such as this....
And Soon The Darkness
It seems that remakes have become so popular within the past ten years that studios are actually remaking films that they think could have been made better. At least that’s what I have been told by my friends and colleagues who have seen the original 1970 film, And...
Anamorph
There are those psychological thrillers that border the horror genre that work. Se7en, Copycat, and Identity are ones that come to mind when I think of the best that Hollywood has offered us in the past. Some may even argue film like SAW and AMERICAN PSYCHO can be...
Anacondas: Trail of Blood
Giant animal movies have always been around, and we all know the majority of them have been B-movies. The really good, yet cheesy ones were made in the forties, fifties and sixties. Excluding some of the greatest animal films like KING KONG, Jurassic PARK and JAWS,...
