    Director: The Fine Folks At Musikladen
    Cast: The Tubes, Some Cheerleaders, Assless Chaps
    Year: 1981
    Purchase From Amazon

    The Film:

    A wise man once said, "Hey, man, as long as I have tickets for The Tubes, I don't give a shit about anything else." That wise man was named Spike, and since he once photoshopped his long-haired, shades-wearing mug onto the Mona Lisa flawlessly, you have to figure that he knows his rock and roll. But by 1981, The Tubes, led by the wonky Fee     ...

    Released by: CBS
    Released on: September 20th, 2016.
    Director: Various, David Lynch
    Cast: Kyle MacLachlan, Sherilynn Fenn, Sheryl Lee, Michael Ontkean, Laura Flynn Boyle, Dana Ashbrook
    Year: 1990 - 1992
    Purchase From Amazon

    The Movie:

    One of the most original and unusual television shows to ever air on a major network, Twin Peaks didn't stick around too long - twenty-nine episodes over two seasons to be exact - but its impact was huge and its influence still felt. Created by David Lynch and Mark Frost, they deceptively made the series look like a standard murder mystery, albeit one peppered with a cast of rather quirky characters. Once the premise was firmly established and the players setup, however, Lynch and company took us into increasingly more unusual and considerably darker territory then we'd seen on television before. Not since The Prisoner had a major television series flirted with surrealism as heavily as Twin     ...

    Year: 1973/
    Purchase From Amazon

    The Movies:

    The first of what will hopefully be many Blu-ray releases commemorating the films of the late Joe Sarno pairs up his infamous Sapphic horror picture Vampire Ecstasy with an earlier black and white oddity entitled Sin You Sinners.

    Vampire Ecstasy:

    Better known in horror movie circles as Veil Of Blood, Joseph Sarno's 1973 vampire sex film Vampire Ecstasy (the film was also previously released as The Devil’s Plaything in the U.K. and saw a video release under that title by E.I. in these here United States a few years ago) remains an engaging slice of sex and blood cinema

    The Movie:

    Massimo Dallamano directed this 1974 film as a pseudo follow-up to What Have You Done to Solange?, a picture he’d made two years prior but this film is far less a traditional giallo than the earlier picture. Rather, the film blends giallo elements with the type of action and     ...

    The Film:

    Though a film such as Violent Cop seems like a perfect vehicle for a character like Takeshi Kitano, known to most of his North American audience as a man more than capable of laying a beatdown on somebody for talking out of turn, it most definitely wasn't the norm for his already     ...

    Purchase From Amazon

    The Movie:

    Brazilian filmmaker Ivan Cardosa has been cranking out low budget genre fare in his homeland since the seventies and while he’s not particularly well known in North America, the fact that he’s collaborated with Coffin Joe (it's not a surprise that Cardosa worked on some of his films before going solo) and Paul Naschy will be reason enough for some fans to seek out his work. Camp Motion Pictures collects some of his better known work and releases these films to DVD on these here shores for the first time ever (though some of this material did get released on VHS by Something Weird Video back in the nineties).

    The Secret Of The Mummy (1982):
