WEIRD WEDNESDAY: Devil Times Five (1974)
I’ve been obsessed with the trailer and artwork for this movie for years. Throw in the fact that it has ’70s teen idol Leif Garrett amongst its cast of pint-sized psychopaths, and it seems like a recipe for my kind of movie insanity. However, I just never found the time to sit down and watch […]
USA UP ALL NIGHT: Attack of the 60 Foot Centerfold (1995)
EDITOR’S NOTE: Attack of the 60 Foot Centerfold was on USA Up All Night on January 31, 1998. I’m sure you’ve seen Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, but this has ten more feet on that. Inga (Raelyn Saalman), Betty (Tammy Parks) and Angel Grace (J. J. North) are the three finalists for Plaything’s Centerfold of the Year, […]
WEIRD WEDNESDAY: The Devil’s Wedding Night (1973)
Supposedly, The Devil’s Wedding Night (AKA Full Moon of the Virgins) was all Mark Damon’s idea. After being in House of Usher, Damon had moved to Italy and appeared in movies like Black Sabbath and Johnny Yuma. Perhaps this idea was the start of his producing career, which was more successful than his acting job. Damon was planning on selling […]
Sizzlin’ Summer of Side-Splitters 2025: Deranged (1987)
Sept 22-28 Chuck Vincent Week: No one did it like Chuck! He’s the unsung king of Up All Night comedy, a queer director making the straightest romcoms but throwing in muscle studs and drag queens. His films explore the concept of romance from almost every angle – he was deeply passionate about love. Chuck Vincent […]
WEIRD WEDNESDAY: Destroy All Monsters (1968)
Has there ever been a better movie than Destroy All Monsters? It is everything magical about film: giant monsters smashing cities and fighting one another while people run and scream in terror. It is cinematic junk food, a treat for the mind that transports me back to watching Action Movies on Youngstown’s WKBN 27 as a […]
WEIRD WEDNESDAY: Demon Witch Child (1975)
Like nearly every other genre director in the Old Country, Amando De Ossorio had a possession movie in him and if their films feel purer than their American counterparts, it may be because they’re all true believers, raised in countries that had way more religion in their blood than the freer — and yet often […]
WEIRD WEDNESDAY: Demons 2 (1987)
Let’s just assume that the events of Demons actually happened, as this movie does. Released just seven months after the original, this movie opens with the residents of a high-rise apartment building watching a movie dramatization of the events that took place in that film. They watch as several teenagers trespass into the closed-off city that […]
