The Schlock Pit

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.

Deranged (2012)

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)

Demon Legacy (2014)

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)

Delivery (2013)

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)

Death (2012)

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)

Dead Sushi (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)

Dead Souls (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)

Dead of the Nite (2013)

A home-grown horror to start the week and its one that comes from Wales, directed by Wrexham born filmmaker S.J Evans. Wales has had a wealth of horror directed in its parts in recent years thanks in part to North Bank Entertainment and Andrew Jones, who has of course shot much maligned fare as Amityville… Read More Dead of the Nite (2013)

Dead Mine (2012)

Whenever you put I film on, there’s always a number of reassurances that provide me with an element of comfort that I won’t be wasting my time. Admittedly this concept was tested somewhat with ‘Dead Mine’. First up, it’s a movie by Steven Sheil. Have you seen ‘Mum & Dad’ ? If not, stop reading… Read More Dead Mine (2012)

Dark House (2013)

Michelle (Kaylee DeFer) is unemployed and as we join her she is desperately searching the classifieds for jobs. It turns out that she’s in rehab following a car accident that claimed the lives of three of her friends and left her as the only survivor. One possibility for employment takes her to 1040 Mill View… Read More Dark House (2013)
