A cast like that immediately pricks up your ears doesn’t it! Not least because Corey Haim has been dead for four years, so the chances of him appearing in a new movie are on the skinny side of slim. A little investigative work though soon digs up a film called New Terminal Hotel from 2010… Read More Do Not Disturb (2010)
It goes without saying that a film with such a title, sporting the tagline “Get down… to Hell”, pretty much demands an immediate viewing irrespective of the quality of the film you’re about to be faced with, thus perfectly echoing the appeal of the Grindhouse genre. Made for the meagre sum of $20,000, this is… Read More The Disco Exorcist (2011)
Harbouring a taste for British horror, I was introduced to Drew Cullingham when I watched his ambitious vampire film with a western lilt – Umbrage: The First Vampire. Though not perfect, it exhibited enough originality for it to be of some interest to a horror dweeb such as myself, and coupled with the informative extras… Read More The Devil’s Bargain (2014)
Welsh director Neil Jones follows up ‘The Reverend’ with this horror movie filmed in Spain. The story concerns four young ladies who are on their way to a bachelorette party at a remote country house owned by Anthony (Craig Fairbrass). We have Mary (Natalia Celino), who on the journey there is being teased about her… Read More Deranged (2012)
A customer of mine came to see me in work last night to check out this week’s horror releases. I happened to mention that Demon Legacy was out today but I hadn’t seen it yet, although when I do there will be a review going up on The Schlock Pit. He said “Don’t sweat it… Read More Demon Legacy (2014)
The first video I rented from Blockbuster was a rather questionable DTV horror film called Devil’s Child (1997) with Matthew Lillard and Kim Delaney. A pointless snippet of trivia if ever there was one, but whenever a supernaturally orientated pregnancy film shows up I tend to think back to the long line of similarly themed… Read More Delivery (2013)
Manipulation. I guess everyone manipulates something to differing degrees, whether its exaggerating man-flu to gain a few days off work, or cajoling your mate to buy the first pint as you “don’t have any money”. It’s an everyday human trait for which DVD companies are no different. They know what sells, and they know what… Read More Death (2012)
Noboru Iguchi has had a prolific output now for over fifteen years, so much so that when you see his name above the title of a film, his reputation dictates that your likely response from what you’re about to see will be a mixture of nausea and mirth. In the UK he’s best known for… Read More Dead Sushi (2012)
The Chiller channel in America seems to be the equivalent of what we have here in the UK with The Horror Channel. The slight difference being that in the last year or so Chiller have taken the bold step into making their own features. The first was the disappointingly average Remains, based on the comic… Read More Dead Souls (2012)
