The home of film critics Matty Budrewicz and Dave Wain who, for the best part of a decade, have parlayed their shared, lifelong obsession with horror, B-movies, and direct-to-video shenanigans into a writing career.

DTV Junkyard 33

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… Welcome to another week of Andrew Jones’ DTV Junkyard! I jest, but we’re only in August and already the Welshman has seen FIVE of his pictures hit UK DVD this year. The latest is ROBERT, where we discover that… Read More DTV Junkyard 33

DTV Junkyard 32

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… Wikipedia tends to define this weeks’ first two films as ‘natural horror movies’, but I think the term I prefer is undoubtedly ‘nature run amok’. A star-laded slice of Canuxploitation is to come later, but first up is CAMERA… Read More DTV Junkyard 32

DTV Junkyard 31

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… As they did with Unhallowed Ground a few weeks back, Kaleidoscope Home Entertainment once again release another title with ridiculous artwork that bears no resemblance to the events that occur within.

DTV Junkyard 29

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… The postman cut a somewhat chastened figure this week as he foraged endlessly in his weighty sack for the contents of this weeks’ DTV Junkyard. In contrast to the dearth of direct to video fodder of late, this week… Read More DTV Junkyard 29

DTV Junkyard 28

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… I really enjoyed Jon Knautz’ first two feature films; Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer was simply all kinds of fun, a throwback to a different era of horror movies where comedy could be seamlessly integrated into the mix. As TV… Read More DTV Junkyard 28

DTV Junkyard 27

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… Released in 2010 The Ford Brothers’ movie The Dead wowed us with its African setting, while also managing to offer a flesh-eating reminder of classic zombie pictures of old. Unlike the conveyor belt of cash-in’s made during this undead… Read More DTV Junkyard 27

DTV Junkyard 26

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… DTV Junkyard! Forever championing the underdog and the disaffected… and Asylum movies!

DTV Junkyard 25

Dave Wain’s essential breakdown of this week’s cavalcade of straight-to-disc treats. Step inside the DTV Junkyard… Another week, another Andrew Jones film – but get used to it people, because before the end of the August we’ll see another two shoehorned in to the barely coherent ramblings of DTV Junkyard.
