SLASHER MONTH: Girls Nite Out (1982)
First off, the fact that one of the posters for this film rips off Night School‘s art makes me love it before I’ve even seen one second of footage. Second, when I did watch it, it so shamelessly takes from other slashers that you’d very nearly be convinced that it was made in Italy. Originally released […]
2020 Scarecrow Psychotronic Challenge Day 1: Pee-wee’s Big Adventure (1985)
DAY 1. FAMILY TIME: Tired of seeing the same faces every day? Look at a movie instead! Rated PG or less. Ease in to it! In the days before the internet, we could build our own cults. Amongst my family, we were obsessed with Pee-Wee Herman. Just imagine, in a time that could only be […]

Slasher Month: The Red Right Hand (2001)

SLASHER MONTH: Berserker (1987)
We’ve had every holiday and nearly every kind of killer by 1987, so why not bring a Norseman in to wipe out campers? It can happen, right? They say it’s a wild bear, but we all know it’s the Berserker, right? The kind of killer that can never rest, that can only subsist on human […]
SLASHER MONTH: To All a Goodnight (1980)
What is it about Christmas that engenders just as many slashers as Halloween? Is it the ennui? The dread? The hatred of being forced to be nice and needing the release that only violence can deliver? While this film borrows liberally from Black Christmas, it does have David Hess as a director, which was my primary […]
