What should you be watching on Tubi? I have some ideas.

Coming at the center of the Venn diagram for the slasher boom and the Satanic Panic* Skullduggery is straight out of Canada and straight up nuts and I wonder, why is no one going crazy about this movie? Oh yeah — it’s also about community college theater.

Dona and Taryn are back again, this time flying missions as federal drug enforcement agents based in Hawaii. After a successful drug bust, they are asked to fly vaccine from Molokai to Knox Island. However, they soon run afoul of nefarious forces in the Philippine government and some double agents at home looking for a sunken ship from World War II that is loaded with gold. As for me, I’m going to keep on suggesting Andy Sidaris movies until everyone loves them as much as me.

3. Frightmare: TUBI LINK
This wasn’t made by Pete Walker but it’s Norman Thaddeus Vane (Shadow of the Hawk, The Black Room) and it’s a mess but I liked it.

This movie feels like walking through a lake and your feet get caught in mud and you struggle to walk but you know there’s something mysterious on the shore and it ends up being just something the light shone on and made sparkle. It also feels like space aliens beamed this down and had to wait until streaming was at the level that it is today for us to watch it and enjoy it, but never understand it.

5. Hollywood Boulevard: TUBI LINK
This movie was the result of a bet between producer Jon Davison and Roger Corman. Davison believed that he could make the cheapest New World Pictures movie ever, so he was given $60,000 and ten days.

6. Lady Iron Monkey: TUBI LINK
Not many movies have flying monkey women who can choke men out with their prehensile tails, so you should take this one and hold it close to your heart.

7. So Sweet…So Perverse: TUBI LINK
Jean (Jean-Louis Trintignant, Amour) is a rich socialite who has come to the aid of Nicole (Carroll Baker!), a gorgeous woman mixed up with Klaus (Horst Frank, The Dead Are Alive). Sure, Jean is married, but that doesn’t stop him from falling for her, even when he learns that she’s been paid to kill him. Of course, his wife Danielle (Erika Blanc!) is mixed up in this, but Nicole is smarter than she seems. Beryl Cunningham (The Salamanders) is also in this as a dancer and Helga Line (Nightmare Castle) is on hand as well.

8. Meatcleaver Masscare: TUBI LINK
You have to admire the balls of the makers of this movie. Actually, you can probably see them right now outside your window they’re so big. After all, they took footage of Sir Christopher Lee from another movie and treated it as the beginning and ending footage in this movie, then said that the film stars the Hammer hero. Some people, you know?

You know what I miss? Italian ripoffs of successful movies. They just don’t seem to happen anymore. Like this — obviously, it’s The Fly, but takes plenty of twists and turns. It was even titled Reanimator 2 in some countries. And it was directed by George Eastman.

Dennis Skinner (Ted Raimi) has moved into the Tate household, helping them with their financial situation while widening the gap between husband and wife. He seems nice enough, but a disturbing childhood has led to him becoming a skid row slasher. However, Dennis’ past sins have come back to haunt him in the form of a past victim called Heidi (Traci Lords). Also: Ricki Lake.
