2021 Scarecrow Psychotronic Challenge Day 10: Doctor Strain the Body Snatcher (1991)
10. RITUALS: It’s good to have a routine, even if it’s evil. This is a Shot On Video remake/remix/rip-off of Re-Animator that has the worst quality filming, the most drone soundtrack and ends right in the middle of a scene. Some people will say that that sounds like a bad time. These are not the kind […]

SLASHER MONTH: Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (1995)
Written and directed by Kim Henkel, who wrote the original film, this take on the Sawyer family has sadly been forgotten, but it had — as so many films do — a rocky creation, a two year period where it disappeared and features two big stars who pretty much don’t want anything to do with […]
The Ice Cream Stop (2021)
“From the moment that I read the script it was perfect. It didn’t need any changes. The subject matter was incredible. The writing was perfect for that subject matter.
