ANOTHER HOLE IN THE HEAD FILM FESTIVAL 2022: Extraneous Matter (2021)
Directed and written by Ken’ichi Ugana, who also made the incredible short Vierailijat, this film takes an image that we associate with the pornographic — sexualized tentacles — and applies it to how being in some relationships is lonelier than being all by yourself, as well as alienation and fear of the unknown, across several […]
ANOTHER HOLE IN THE HEAD FILM FESTIVAL 2022: Don’t Fuck In the Woods 2 (2022)
As long as we have movies we will have summer camps filled with boned-up counselors who make the most critical of mistakes: fucking in the woods. It happened in the first movie back in 2016 and it assuredly happens here. Let me tell you, if this came out in the 80s, high schoolers would have […]
ANOTHER HOLE IN THE HEAD FILM FESTIVAL 2022: Do Not Disturb (2022)
I had a friend that once said that he knew that if someone, anyone he knew would take pills that he found laying on the ground, it would be me. Well, maybe not after watching this. Made-in-Florida, shot in Miami, infused with the madness that drugs like bath salts and Krokodil were supposed to unleash […]
NIGHT GALLERY: Pilot episode
There’s never been a better TV anthology — when it’s firing on all gears, that is — than Night Gallery. Sure, The Twilight Zone is a classic, but there are moments on this show that are still terrifying nearly fifty years later. I remember as a kid I had a book called The TV Guide Book of Lists […]

It was not theatrically released in Europe until 1975, yet an edited U.S. version […]
MILL CREEK NIGHTMARE WORLDS: The Doomsday Machine (1972)
EDITOR’S NOTE: This was originally on the site on March 3, 2020. You have to admire a movie that was originally filmed five years earlier under the titles Armageddon 1975 and Doomsday Plus Seven before the money stopped rolling in. The rights got sold, a new ending was filmed with totally different actors and plenty […]
ANOTHER HOLE IN THE HEAD FILM FESTIVAL 2022: The Curse (A Praga) (1967, 2022)
Coffin Joe may be dead and yet he lives. How else do we have a new film that he hosts? Yes, through the fire and the flames, he comes back to us, warning us about making a joke of the unknown world. Perhaps he would also do well to warn us that if you see […]
