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
Although it’s my least favorite of the 3, Scream 2 has a GREAT opening death scene. Ignoring the kind of lame “knife through the stall” death of Omar Epps – let’s skip ahead to Jada Pinkett’s spectacuarly scary stabbing in the theater. Why so scary? Because *I* believe this could actually happen. You’ve got a
The first in a series – this has be the biggest flaw in the first Scream movie (altho I still love it to death). Screenwriter Williamson gets some major points for having Tatum scream “fucker” as she throws the beer bottle, but clearly lost some brain cells thinking that the garage door would actually lift
I couldn’t find a photo of the actual moment of splatter, where the queen Alien shoves her gigantic spiked tail through Bishop – but here’s a shot of Lance Henricksen (well, half of him anyway) with Ripley and Newt in the aftermath…which is still pretty splatter-rific. I wonder what the hell that is anyway –
I was rewatching both Alien and Aliens this weekend, and while they are not ‘technically’ horror films, there do both contain quite a bit of lovely splatter…and not just your regular garden variety splatter, either. There’s human blood splatter, synthetic android splatter, and alien blood splatter. Hooray! Anyway – speaking of splatter: I found an
