This is like a mixtape of other 70s paranormal documentaries, Journey Into the Beyond, Mysteries from Beyond Earth, The Amazing World of Psychic Phenomena, The Force Beyond, Unknown Powers and Death Is Not the End. Because this film acts as a massive clip show, it required a small army of producers to clear the rights […]

VISUAL VENGEANCE BLU RAY RELEASE: Date With a Vampire/Blood Craving (2001, 2002)
Date With a Vampire (2001): If you spent any time wandering the aisles of a mom-and-pop video store, you know the vibe of SOV (shot-on-video) movies, produced during a time when digital cameras were making everyone with a tripod think they were the next Jean Rollina, and many of them are!

The Early 70’s Horror Trailer (1999)
I want to meet Damon Packard, but I’d also be a little freaked out about it. The Early ‘70s Horror Trailer is so inside my brain and filled with the imagery I love most about, well, early 70s horror, without anything like a plot to get in the way. Why is everyone running? Why is there […]

UFO: Exclusive (1978)
1 hour and 45 minutes of absolute malarky. Yes, Wheeler Dixon and Sidney Paul are back, making another video that could be interchangeable with the others they made, but I don’t care. I’ve watched them all. While they also dropped UFO: Top Secret and Attack from Outer Space the same year, this one leans much […]
