EDITOR’S NOTE: Did you know that Visual Vengeance has a ton of movies on Tubi? It’s true. Check out this Letterboxd list and look for reviews as new movies get added. You can find this movie on Tubi.

Once available on the Catacomb of Creepshow fifty DVD set — along with a few other Visual Vengeance releases — Torment was directed by Steve Sessions, who also had Aberrations and Contagio released on Tubi by the label.

Laura (Suzi Lorraine) has just been discharged from a psychiatric hospital and her husband Ray (Tom Stedham) plans on taking her to their cottage to relax. She has problems, some of them unreal such as seeing dead bodies inside every garbage bag, and some real, which may include a killer clown who goes by the name of Dissecto (Lucien Eisenach).

Ray has stopped believing anything his wife says or sees, so when she claims that a sheriff (Ted Alderman) has stopped by looking for two missing Mormon missionaries (Jade Michael LaFont, Luc Bernier), he thinks it’s all in her psychotic head. But oh no. A killer clown has both those men and we watch as he slowly kills them.

I wish that this movie had more of the is she crazy or being gaslit vibe, as it’s given away way too soon that the clown is a real person. Yet Lorraine is so good in this that she transcends this issue and brings the film up, including some stalking scenes that are incredibly suspenseful in spite of the budget and how it makes the clown’s costume look like it came from the Spirit store.

How weird is it that there are two killer clown movies with the same title? There’s also a 2017 movie.

It took more than thirty years, but Coffin Joe was finally able to complete his story that began in At Midnight I’ll Take Your Soul and This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse. Creator and star José Mojica Marins felt that since he compromised on the sending of the second film, he was cursed. Now, he could finally tell the story.

After being released from a mental ward, Coffin Joe is taken care of by his most loyal servant Bruno (Rui Rezende), who along with four fanatics has been waiting for the return of the master. Of course, his order is simple: bring the perfect woman and continue the blood.

There are so many women and so little time. Like eugenist Dr. Hilda (Cléo De Páris), who is drugged and hallucinates that Coffin Joe is feeding her one of her ass cheeks. Or a young gypsy woman named Elena (Nara Sakarê) who willingly gives herself to him.

But all is not snakes and spiders in Brazil. Coronel Claudiomiro Pontes (Jece Valadão), a police captain blinded by Coffin Joe when he escaped his fate at the end of This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse — young Joe is played by superfan Raymond Castile — and Father Eugênio (Milhem Cortaz), a priest who is the son of Dr. Rudolfo from At Midnight I’ll Take Your Soul, have joined forced to destroy the undertaker forever.

Coffin Joe is also dealing with the ghosts of his many victims, including Terezinha and Lenita from At Midnight I’ll Take Your Sou and Laura from This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse. He’s also been cursed by Elena’s witch aunts, which turns the opportunity to make love to Elena into a trip through a gigantic intestine into a meeting with the Mystifier (José Celso Martinez Corrêa), who shows Coffin Joe purgatory and Hell, as well as a vision of his death.

As the police close in, Joe escapes through the woods and into an amusement park where he kills the cop but is impaled through the heart by the priest. He’s convinced that he’s killed Coffin Joe, but you can’t kill an idea. His shadow comes loose from his body to chase the priest while Elena mounts the dying body of our, well, hero and his hands, trembling in the throes of death, hold her breasts.

Coffin Joe’s funeral should be sad, but as we see the women throw roses at his grave, so many of them have continued the blood and are filled with his heirs. The gravestone is shattered by lightning and multiple faces of Coffin Joe appear within it.

For being seventy years old. José Mojica Marins in no way took it easy in this. It’s the bloodiest of all the films and the most complete. Not the best — I really think This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse is incredible — but I had a total blast watching it. It’s a return that is in no way unwelcome or one that feels like it doesn’t belong.

Arrow Video’s limited edition collection of the movies of Coffin Joe makes the blind see and the dead walk again. Embodiment of Evil has commentary with producer Paulo Sacramento and co-screenwriter Dennison Ramalho in Portuguese with English subtitles, plus extras like a new interview with Dennison Ramalho, footage of Marins at the film’s premiere, an interview in which Ramalho pays tribute to Marins, official Making Of and experimental Making Of featurettes and multiple featurettes with commentary by Marins. You can get this set from MVD.

Stephanie Morgan attended Brigham Young University — her Mormon faith informs her writing — before marrying at the age of twenty-one and graduating with a degree in English. Having no prior experience as an author, she got the idea for the Twilight books in a dream. Despite it being her first book, there were multiple companies vying to publish it. It took a month for her to be on the New York Times best seller list and four years later, Twilight was one of the most challenged books according to the American Library Association because of its sexuality and religious content.

As one of the first writers to use social media to connect with her readers. The books have sold over 100 million copies and it was optioned for a movie before the book was published.

Directed by Catherine Hardwicke (Thirteen) and written by Melissa Rosenberg, the movie begins when teenager Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) leaves Phoenix for Forks, a small town in Washington to live with her cop dad Charlie (Billy Burke) after her mom Renée (Sarah Clarke) gets married to a minor league pitcher named Phil (Matt Bushell). She doesn’t want to be in this small town but does remember her childhood friend Jacob Black (Tyler Lauter) who lives on the Quileute Indian Reservation.

Once she’s in school, she becomes obsessed with the rich Cullen family, including Edward (Robert Pattinson), a 108-year-old vampire who looks the same age as her. He has an entire family of adopted siblings who are all taught by their father figure, Carlisle (Peter Facinelli). If it feels like the X-Men, I have plenty to say about that. The family also includes mother Esme (Elizabeth Reaser), precognitive Alice (Ashley Greene), super strong Emmett (Kellan Lutz) and his mate Rosalie Hale (Nikki Reed) and emotion manipulator Jasper Haale (Jackson Rathbone).

What follows — and stay tuned through all of these movies — is a love/hate/I can’t be with you/I can’t be without you relationship between Bella and Edward with Jacob always on the side, trying to escape being a friend.

There’s also another clan of vampires led by Victoria Sutherland (Rachelle Lefevre) and James Witherdale (Cam Gigandet) who want to kill Bella. Along with Laurent (Edi Gathegi), they start killing people in Forks. Eventually, Edward kills James and takes Bella to the prom, where Victoria is waiting for revenge. And oh man, I almost forgot Anna Kendrick is in this!

Twilight is a big dumb movie and I don’t say that in a mean way. It’s not a Universal vampire movie, it’s not Hammer, it’s not even Jess Franco or Jean Rollin. It’s vampires for older teens who want some level of safe erotic excitement as they move from girl to woman. Now, the fact that the vampire is 118 and the girl is 17, well, that is troublesome. The Native American appropriation is as well. But I can’t lie that I wasn’t entertained by these movies, even if I yelled at the screen like a lunatic for the entire film.

As part of THE TWILIGHT SAGA 15th Anniversary SteelBook® Collection 4K, Twilight has extras such as a tour featurette; an interview with creator Stephenie Meyer; features on the cast, music and kiss scene; Catherine Hardwicke’s “Bella’s Lullaby Remix” music video; the red carpet from the movie’s premiere and more. It’s an amazing package that you can get exclusively from Best Buy.

Directed and written by Shinpei Hayashiya, this is the story of the real-life Japanese battleship, the Yamato, which fights giant monsters in the Pacific Ocean. Yes, the same battleship from Space Cruiser Yamamoto AKA Star Blazers.

The crew doesn’t believe when they hear that the oceans they’ve docked in are protected by the man-sized, carnivorous Bonefishes and the Hell King of the Seas, Reigo. Well, they try and shoot what they think is Reigo and discover they’ve only murdered its child. Now filled with rage, the crew of the largest battleship in the Japanese Navy must battle the largest creature in the world.

There was also a 2009 sequel, Raiga: God Of The Monsters. This movie was retitled Reigo: King of the Sea Monsters and re-released to take advantage of the 2019 release of Godzilla: King of the Monsters.

Hayashiya also made the Gamera fan movie, Gamera 4: Truth, and the cast includes Susumo Kurobe, the original Ultraman, and Yukijiro Hotaru from the 1990s Gamera trilogy.

You can watch this on Tubi or buy the blu ray from SRS.

Rickie (Shiloh Fernandez) and J.T. (Noah Segan) are the kind of guys who can never get the women of their dreams. In Rickie’s case, it’s Joann (Candice King), who he has known since they were young. The two men leave class early and sneak into an abandoned psychiatric hospital where they find a mute and naked woman (Jenny Spain) restrained. J.T. wants to assault her and his friend explains why he shouldn’t, which should tell you who we’re spending time with in this movie. The next day, they come back and J.T. tells Rickie that the woman is undead. He knows. He’s already killed her three times.

Rickie decides to free her, leaving a hand unchained when J.T. tries to have sex with her. She scratches his face. Things get worse, though, when Rickie decides to ask out Joann, knowing she’s dating Johnny (Andrew DiPalma). He and his friend Dwyer (Nolan Gerard Funk) beat him unmercifully and then make him show the Deadgirl, who ends up biting Johnny’s penis and infecting him. As you can imagine, she is not the last person who gets infected and turned into a member of the walking dead.

Directed by Marcel Sarmiento and Gadi Harel and written by Trent Haaga, this isn’t for everyone. Combining zombies and sex is a mixture that many aren’t ready for and it has some triggering elements of sexual assault. That said, it’s an interesting film that’s well made.

The Unearthed blu ray of this movie is packed with extras, which seems to be a continued highlight from this company. There are new interviews with Hared, Haaga, Segan, Fernandez and makeup artist Jim Ojala, as well as two audio commentaries, one with the cast and crew and the other with Jenny Spain. There are also making of features, Spain’s audition, multiple galleries and a trailer. This label keeps putting so much effort into movies that are under the radar and I’m intrigued by what they plan on doing next. You can get this from MVD.
