Infrared (2022)
Directors and writers Robert Livings and Randy Nundlall Jr. have gone back to the found footage well for a movie about a show also called Infrared which has a paranormal investigator and his production crew searching for ghosts at the Lincoln School, an abandoned and possibly haunted place scheduled to be razed. Wes (Jesse Janzen) is the […]
Rest In Pieces (1987)
EDITOR’S NOTE: This was originally on the site on October 30, 2020. Along with Edge of the Axe and Deadly Manor, Spanish horror director José Ramón Larraz made this movie explicitly for the burgeoning American video rental market. It has all the cheap thrills you want, but it feels like a Michelin star chef just made you a mac […]
Black Candles (1982)
This movie is also called Los ritos sexuales del diablo (The Sexual Rites of the Devil) and in no way is it lying. This is José Ramón Larraz having 84 minutes to gio absolutely berserk, fusing his softcore films of the last few years with his occult and mental disorder efforts of the early to mid […]
Tales from the Darkside episode 7: “Inside the Closet”
“Inside the Closet” is one of the more famous episodes of Tales from the Darkside as it’s the first thing that was directed by Tom Savini. While writer Michael McDowell died at the too-young age of 49, he left behind scripts to films like Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas and Thinner. It’s a very simple story: Gail (Roberta Weiss) […]
La momia nacional (1981)
I saw an article on Film Butcher that said that The National Mummy was part of the trend of destape (uncover) films as Franco and the Catholic Church’s power over the cultural morals of Spain declined. That’s funny, as the poster they shared has the mummy being unwrapped. Released the same year as the zombie movie in mummy […]
Forgiving God (2022)
Aaron Dunbar, the co-director (with Jason Campbell) and writer of this film asked me to check this out but said, “It’s a faith-based film,” as if that would make me immediately look at it in a different light. If anything, it made me want to watch it more, as his A Wish for Giants somehow combined Christian […]
TUBI ORIGINAL: War of the Worlds: Annihilation (2021)
Directed by Maximilian Elfeldt (Avengers Grimm: Time Wars) and written by Conor Dowling, this is a movie by The Asylum and if you know what that means, well you know what that means. Now, The Asylum may have already made War of the Worlds and War of the Worlds 2: The Next Wave, but this is […]
La casa de las muertas vivientes (1972)
Whether you call this La casa de las muertas vivientes (The House of the Living Dead), Night of the Scorpion, the Italian title Il cadavere di Helen non mi dava pace (Helen’s Corpse Gives Me No Peace or Helen Is Not Resting In Peace) or An Open Tomb… An Empty Coffin, this is a giallo made in Spain and Italy during the height […]
