The Fifth Cord – Movie Review:
Franco Nero (of Django and Enter The Ninja) plays a newspaper man named Andrea Bild who has a penchant for booze and loose women, and these days he spends more time drinking than he does working. All of this changes when a well to do socialite is attacked after a fancy New Year’s Eve shindig.

All The Colors Of Giallo – Movie Review: Federico Caddeo’s documentary All The Colors Of Giallo traces the origins of one of Italian cinema’s most enduring genres from its infancy through to its twilight years by way of interviews with many of the filmmakers and actors involved in the films as well as insight from film historian Fabio Melelli, who more or less plays ‘host’ for the duration of this ninety-minute feature.
The documentary begins by explaining the influence of American pulp and film noir pictures

Death Race: Beyond Anarchy - Movie Review:
A long time ago, some people got together and made a film called, "Death Race 2000." It wasn't the most well-received film, or the film with the highest budget, but it told a cool story about a race in which the contestants could be killed, and gained a cult following. Over thirty years

Ecco / The Forbidden – Movie Reviews:
When Mondo Cane turned out to be box office gold in theaters around the world in 1962, it went to reason that knock offs would follow. While very few of these imitators could match the skill behind Jacopetti and Prosperi’s original shockumentary, there were a few that came close. The two Mondo movies that Severin Films, with some help from Something Weird Video, have teamed up on this double feature are, unfortunately, from the first category but while they’re not particularly good in the traditional sense, they’re not without merit. Ecco in particular has some

Double Dragon – Movie Review:
“EVIL HAS JUST MET ITS MATCH!”
You wouldn’t necessarily think that 1994’s Double Dragon was from a producer of the Transformers movies and one of the writers of Breaking Bad, but there you go. This infamously awful action film meant to cash in on the success of the popular arcade game franchise but it was, quite

The Bushwhacker / The Ravager – Movie Review:
The debut release from Mondo Macabro’s American Arcana line (a sublabel dedicated to only the finest in ‘U.S. trash and genre films’ offers up a pair of seventies shockers unearthed from the vaults of the mighty Something Weird Video.
The Bushwhacker:
First up, Dan (Harvey Shain, of The Lustful Turk and The Secret Sex Lives Of Romeo And Juliet, credited as Forman Shane) is piloting his plane with a few hot chicks on board. Those hot chicks are Marueen (Barbara Kline of Henry’s Night In, credited as Acee Decee), Dawn (Merci Montello, of Erika’s Hot Summer and Space-Thing, credited as Merci Mee), and Sherry (played by… Rita Roundheels). Dan’s a lousy pilot and soon enough, the plan crashes in the middle of the vast wilds of California – but was it shot down by a crazy hermit? They’re completely unaware that this territory belongs to The Bushwhacker (Dan Martin, the director of The Big Snatch, credited as Ronny Runningboard)!

When Jim Douglass (Gregory Peck) comes riding up to the town of borderish town of Rio Arriba, not much is known about his purpose (unless you read the back of the box), but one thing is for sure; he's a man on one hell of a mission. He's not on the mission that the townspeople

Frank Capra is often held up as a preeminent example of The American Director in film history circles. A long-time Hollywood veteran he began his career during the Silent Era and progressed into the sound era, writing and/or directing a series of popular films in that time.

Day Of The Dead - The Movie:
George Romero's third zombie film, 1985's Day Of The Dead, may not be regarded in the same light as perennial favorites Night Of The Living Dead and Dawn Of The Dead but it's definitely got its fan base, and there are plenty of us around who consider it to be a better picture than the two that came before it. When the film begins, the living dead have more or less taken over. The cities are empty and what's left of mankind, at least in the small geographic area that the film focuses on,

Evil Dead 2 – Movie Review:
When Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell made indie horror history with the relentless low budget The Evil Dead in 1980, you knew it was only a matter of time before a sequel was to be churned out and in this case the sequel turned out to be almost more of a remake (due to the fact that they couldn't use the footage from the first film to create a recap!),
