Dream Demon (1988)
I love that we live in a time when the movies we once watched on fuzzy VHS rentals that were scored with wear and tear are now available on pristine blu rays from boutique labels. For example, 1988’s Dream Demon is now in my hands and instead of a tape that might fall apart in my […]
Drive Me to the End (2020)
Ryan (Richard Summers-Calvert, who also wrote and directed this film) and Sunny (Kate Lister) are estranged family members who find themselves car-sharing to a funeral for an unnamed person in Scotland.

La Nave de los Monstruos (1960)

All the way back in 1661, Baron Vitelius was burned at the stake during the Inquisition and claimed […]

René Cardona Jr. gave us Tintorera, a Susan George-starring vehicle that is less the Mexican version of Jaws and more softcore three-way porn, as well as Guyana: Crime of the Century, which somehow […]
Dr. Satan (1966)
