JESS FRANCO MONTH: Red Silk (1999)
Gina (Lina Romay) and Tina (Christie Levin, Broken Dolls) are female private eyes who go from smuggling artwork to a kidnap and murder case, all while just trying to make enough money that they can get out of the business. Why yes, Jess Franco is making Two Undercover Angels again. There’s a rich guy who chains his […]
A Peloton of One (2020)

A century later, that curse — and the undead gang — continue to haunt the preacher’s grandson and his family. And when it comes to bad hombres who […]
JESS FRANCO MONTH: Succubus (1969)
The German title for this movie, Necronomicon – Geträumte Sünden (Necronomicon – Dreamt Sins) is metal as fuck and when you get right down to it, isn’t Jess Franco the same way? I feel like him like I do about Venom. Most Venom songs sound the same, but man, they all sound pretty good and while […]
