Ah, Polselli: Getting grimy with an underappreciated director
EDITOR’S NOTE: This originally appeared in Drive-In Asylum #25. Get it now on Etsy. Renato Polselli isn’t the kind of director mentioned in the same breath as other famous Italian genre directors like Argento or Fulci. Or Martino, Margheriti or Deodato. Let’s face it. He barely gets mentioned at all. Yet we live in a […]

Tales from the Crypt S3 E4: Abra Cadaver (1991)
Stephen Hopkins never gets discussed all that much but he directed Dangerous Game, Judgement Night, A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Child, Lost in Space, The Ghost and the Darkness and Predator 2. Those are some pretty big efforts and he directs TV today but you’d think people would talk more about his films. He worked with writer Jim Birge, […]

Remember Jen and Sylvia Soska? Well, they just made a sequel — kinda, sorta — to Night of the Living Dead and its on Tubi. Yes, the very same Soska sisters who made the remake of Rabid and American Mary. Now, is that a good thing? Was the remake of Rabid a good idea? Have we gotten so many […]
