    Emanuelle In America – Movie Review:

    One of the most notorious films in director Joe D’Amato’s notoriously sleazy filmography is 1977’s Emanuelle In America, which once again stars the lovely Laura Gemser in the lead role of Emanuelle. This time our hyper-sexual photographer is, when the film opens in New     ...

    The Fly Collection – Movie Review:

    The Fly was a hit when it debuted in 1958, spawning two sequels in the years to come and then, in the eighties, a remake and a follow up to that remake. Shout! Factory has wisely decided to collect all five of those pictures and release them in an extras-laden boxed set aptly titled The Fly Collection.

    The Fly:

    Andre (David Hedison, billed as Al Hedison) is a brilliant inventor whose latest endeavor is to perfect a pair of teleportation pods that he’s been working on for some time. His lovely wife Helene (Patricia Owens) and his brother François (Vincent Price) stand by him. Andre makes progress when he’s able to send inanimate objects from one pod to the next, but things get complicated from there on out when he starts experimenting with living things.

    When Andre is sufficiently confident that the teleportation pods are safe, he decides to use himself as a human guinea pig. What he doesn’t realize, when he gets into the first pod, is that a fly has gone in with him. When he comes out on the other side, he’s not longer human and has a fly’s head on a man’s body. Likewise, the fly changes, having a human head on a fly’s body. Things get considerably darker from here on in, with Inspector Charas (Herbert Marshall) eventually becoming involved and trying to sort out what exactly has happened.

    “Once it was human… even as you and I! The monster created by atoms     ...

    One of those rare horror-comedy hybrid films that actually works really, really well, John Landis' An American Werewolf In London remains a textbook example of just how well ‘funny’ can mix with ‘scary’ effectively when given a smart script, a talented director and a strong cast.

    The film begins with two American     ...

    Spookies – Movie Review:

    Produced by the same Michael Lee who founded infamous UK video label VIPCO, 1985’s Spookies, is a bit of a mess. It’s a beautiful mess in many ways, but a mess nevertheless and that’s likely due to the fact that it began life as a movie called Twisted Souls. Eventually, however, co-writers/directors Brendan Faulkner and Thomas Doran, along with co-writer/producer Frank M. Farel, were given the boot and the film was re-titled Spookies. Eugenie Joseph was brought in to replace them and was responsible for not only shooting and adding new material but for re-editing what her predecessors     ...

    The Blood On Satan’s Claw – Movie Review:

    Probably the best-known film of the minimal output from the short-lived Tigon Studios, Piers Haggard’s Blood On Satan’s Claw has maintained a solid cult following since its release in 1970. With folk horror having had a bit of a resurgence in the last few years with titles like The Witch and Midsommar doing well at the box office, it would seem a more than appropriate title to revisit – particularly     ...

    Flat out balls-to-the-wall grindhouse/exploitation filmmaking collides head on with a crime noir aesthetic in Gordon Trueblood's 1973 drive in hit, The Candy Snatchers. The film was never before given a legitimate home video release anywhere since its theatrical run in the early seventies until Subversive Cinema brought it to DVD     ...
