Say, here’s a movie that took me completely by surprise: Quarantine. I remember seeing the previews for this last year and loudly dismissing it as total crap. But back then, I mistakenly thought it was some kind of extension of the Saw franchise. Still, even at the beginning of our On Demand purchase, I was
The Right One?? Thanks to this month’s DVD releases, I finally got a chance to see Let the Right One In (Lat den ratte komma in) – a movie that every one of my filmgeek friends has been talking about since FOREVER. All I heard was “it’s fantastic” and “it’s amazing” and “it’s one of
“We’ve got to be willing to do ANYTHING” The story is virtually identical, so anyone who’s seen Craven’s original The Last House on the Left pretty much knows what’s going to happen in the remake. For anyone who’s not seen it: it’s more of a “terror” film than a horror film, with the bulk of
Here’s the thing about the 2009 remake of My Bloody Valentine – you HAVE to go see it in 3D, you HAVE to go see it with as many friends as you can gather together, and you HAVE to go in expecting it to be silly fun. If you’re looking for scares, this isn’t going
The third installment in Dario Argento’s “Three Mothers” trilogy (following Suspiria & Inferno) does not disappoint. Mother of Tears is full of the Italian Horror Director’s signatures: grotesque murders, graphic detail, entrails, gorgeous, naked Italian women – and of course, the main character wading through a disgusting pit of something (in this case, human carnage
Brittany Snow spends most of the movie looking like this. I finally got around to renting the remake of Prom Night last night, and hoo boy. Not that the 1980 Jamie Lee Curtis flick was much better, but at least I remember it fondly. This one was…well, gah. It was full of so many problems, nothing
ZombieHarmony This might be my new favorite thing ever – massive points to these folks for all the little details, like the search options (slow-moving, fast-moving, immobile, limbs intact, some limbs intact, NO limbs intact), interests, and even the banners you can add to your site! LOVE.
The title might be cheesy, but it does accurately represent what’s going on in this film. The Midnight Meat Train is available On Demand right now – and I went into it expecting it to be seriously bad, and ended being pleasantly surprised. The plot is pretty decent, and there is more than enough splatter,
I admit it – I saw the new Death Race in the theater this weekend. While fans of the 70s original may not agree, I thought it was just as fun. Blatant (like, in-your-face BLATANT) eye candy, speed, crashes – and let’s not forget, the splatter. Unfortunately I couldn’t find any videos up yet that
Here’s a recent gore flick that surprised me – The Ruins. If you examine the story too closely, you’re gonna find some big, gaping holes, but goodgoddamn this movie made me uncomfortable – which to me, means some good entertainment. Here’s the tamest scene I could come up with that still relates the super-squirmy feel
