    Patrick Still Lives – Movie Review:

    Patrick’s back (sort of) and he’s horny (definitely)!

    When Richard Franklin’s 1978 film Patrick proved a box office hit, Mario Landi and company stepped up to the plate to deliver a ‘sequel’ that took the basic premise of Franklin’s picture and ramped up the sex and violence levels to some pretty ridiculous levels.     ...

    Sometimes Aunt Martha Does Dreadful Things – Movie Review:

    Here’s an odd one. Think of 1971’s Sometimes Aunt Martha Does Dreadful Things as The Odd Couple reinvented as a low budget crime film combining the bitchiest elements of Andy Milligan’s output with the low rent Florida charm of The Guy From Harlem, but with way more homoeroticism built into pretty much every aspect of the film. And yes, it’s as great     ...

    Primitives – Movie Review:

    When Satan’s Slave struck box office gold for Indonesia’s Rapi Films, producer Gope T. Samtani got the gang back together and had screenwriter Imam Tantowi once again team up with director Sisworo Gautama Putra to craft another horror picture, this time eschewing the supernatural elements of that earlier effort in favor of… trashy cannibal nonsense (except that there isn't really much in the way of human on human consumption going on)!     ...

    Shivers – Movie Review:

    David Cronenberg’s 1975 feature film debut, also known as They Came From Within (and before that as The Parasite Murders), is set entirely in Starliner Towers, a fancy high-rise apartment building that is essentially self-sufficient and which is located on an island near Montreal. As two possible tenants arrive and discuss the facility with the property manager, upstairs an older man named Dr. Emil Hobbes (Fred Doederlein, who also appears in Cronenberg’s Scanners) murders and then cuts open the stomach of a young woman named Annabelle Brown (Cathy Graham)     ...

    Pitch Black – Movie Review:

    A reasonably low budget (the picture was made for twenty million, which is low by major studio standards!) sci-fi/horror film shot in the middle of nowhere in Australia, David Twohy’s 2001 film Pitch Black wound up doing quite well at the box office and has since seen two follow up movies (one live action, one animated) and a couple of video game spin-offs.

    New York Ripper – Movie Review:

    Next to Zombie and The Beyond, Lucio Fulci’s New York Ripper is, if not one of his better-known pictures in mainstream circles, at least his most notorious. It’s been labeled as near pornographic, misogynist, sexist trash and it’s hard to argue with a few of those more colorful adjectives. That said, Fulci’s film definitely succeeds in creating an unsettling mood and a sleazy atmosphere – and it’s more fun to think he planned it that     ...

    Split Second – Movie Review:

    Set deep in the future of the year 2008, Split Second takes place in a London flooded with water (global warming really is a bitch) and seemingly in constant darkness. Here we’re introduced to a renegade cop named Harley Stone (Rutger Hauer. He’s the kind likely to shoot first and ask questions later, but you can’t argue with his results. Unfortunately, he lost his last partner in the line of duty, and that left some emotional     ...

    Written and directed by Roger Nygard, 1999’s Suckers introduces us to a man named Reggie (Daniel Benzali), who works as a used car salesman and who will stop at nothing to get the sale. In fact, he’s made a bit of a name for himself training the other recruits on his team to use similar tactics to his own and to simply not take no for an answer. He’s got plenty of tricks, but more importantly than that, he gets results.     ...

    Shot around the same time and with many of the same cast members as Midnight Party, Jess Franco’s Shining Sex tells the sordid story of a stripper named Cynthia (Lina Romay, of course) who is employed at a very fancy establishment in France. Cynthia is the top draw in the club, but when she’s free, makes a bit of extra money on the side by working as a prostitute. Alpha (Evelyne Scott) and Andros (Raymond     ...

    Cousin Larry and Balki Bartokomous are, for better or worse, nowhere to be seen in this 1984 picture written and directed by the late, great Larry Cohen, and while the cover art might make this look a little bit like a porno movie until you see the knife, the fact of the matter is that     ...

    Would you let an ogre do your laundry? This important question and many more are dealt with in Neo Ultra Q, the 2013 revamp of the classic of the late sixties Tsuburaya Productions TV series, Ultra Q. There’s a very strong line of socio-political commentary evident right from the first episode wherein we see the citizens of Japan clash with one another over what should be done about a giant ogre that’s clamoring around     ...

    Olga Triple Feature – Movie Review:

    My first introduction to Olga was courtesy of The Cramps, who mentioned 'Madame Olga' at the beginning of their video for Ultratwist, in which Poison Ivy, all decked out in a very Olga-esque costume, encourages dancers to twist harder and faster and whipping them when they don't.
    This video piqued my curiosity and never being one to doubt the coolness of Lux and Ivy, I looked into it a little more and found that there were actually a series of films that revolved around the character made famous by Audrey Campbell.

    This year, Something Weird Video released three of the five Olga films onto one great triple feature DVD making the films much easier to get ahold of, as these films,     ...
