The Carrier (1988)
Holy shit, this fucking movie. If The Abomination is a Shot On Video (SOV) exploration of disease and religion, madness and murder straight out of Texas, this is its oddball rural Michigan brother that has much higher production values. This is a movie where if I describe it to you, you’ll say, “There’s no way that […]
Leprechaun Returns (2018)
A direct sequel to the original film, this time with Linden Porco in the main role. Even Taylor Spreitler’s (Amityville: The Awakening) character is portrayed as the daughter of Jennifer Anniston’s Tory Redding from the first movie. Even Ozzie Jones (Mark Holton) comes back. This was directed by Steven Kostanski, who made The Void, Manborg and Psycho […]
Leprechaun: Origins (2014)
Zach Lipovsky, who made Tasmanian Devils, Dead Rising: Watchtower, Freaks and the live action Kim Possible made this movie, which probably already had Leprechaun fans upset because Warwick Davis was gone and in his place was WWE wrestler Hornswoggle. This version of the character isn’t making jokes and appears in a movie that’s closer to Midsommar than a slasher. It […]

Raiders of the Living Dead (1986)
A regional New Hampshire film with a synth score that was reedited with new footage by Sam Sherman with that iconic Independent-International Pictures logo at the start of the show? If you’re wondering, “Is it weird?” My answer is, “Would it be on our site if it wasn’t?” While filming on this movie originally began […]
Bog (1979)
You know, dynamite fishing seems goofy enough and then it unleashes a prehistoric monster and that monster somehow only can live by drinking the blood of women. Luckily, as they say, Gloria DeHaven is in this. Twice, really. Bog tries to lure teenagers into the theaters and drive-ins with a hip, happening cast that included […]
The Orphan (1979)
This movie was originally called Friday the 13th until the makers of that franchise negotiated with this film’s producers to use that title. Well, the tales of Crystal Lake are better known than this film, but man, this is one weird slice of 1979 and that’s the way we like it. It starts with our hero, […]
Boggy Creek II: And the Legend Continues (1985)
You know, right off the bat this movie is telling you tall tales. That’s because it’s not the second Boggy Creek movie, it’s the third, following 1977’s Return to Boggy Creek (and followed by two direct-to-video movies, Boggy Creek: The Legend Is True and The Legacy of Boggy Creek). Charles B. Pierce, who made the original regional classic […]
The Kirlian Witness (1979)
“For the first time on the screen a strange thriller that takes you into the psychic world of plants.” Yes, in 1979, people were talking to their plants, using biofeedback devices to hear from them and even singing to them. For everyone obsessed with the 80s, let me tell you, the 70s were way better. […]
