In keeping with the seasonal theme, here is Tales From the Crypt and the quite festive episode they produced in 1989, I believe. Keep a close eye on the credits, as Fred Dekker (Night of the Creeps, Monster Squad) wrote this episode, and Robert Zemeckis (Cast Away, Beowulf, dozens of other big budget Hollywood...

Satan’s little helper is a relatively new (2004 ) film that takes place on Halloween and looks to combine its own brand of irreverence and humor while working within the vague confines of a slasher picture. The only problem is that it jumps around from idea to idea so much that the narrative becomes...

Events appear to be fabricated by the family when BBC reporters investigate, but then all hell breaks loose in a...

Who knew the Mexicans pumped out some horror films in the late 80’s and early 90’s? Well, I guess it should have been obvious that they did, but up until now I can’t remember seeing many that were worth remembering or writing about, that is until I watched Grave Robbers of course. Robbers isn’t...

Jake West is quickly becoming one of my favorite British” horrody” directors (that’s a word I made up for horror comedies, do you think it will stick?). My love affair began when I saw Evil Aliens (review forthcoming) and has now been cemented by his latest offering Doghouse. Where Evil Aliens was a splatterific...

Mike Mendez is one of my favorite film makers, which is a labor of love considering he has only directed 3 true horror films all by himself, and I have to keep checking back on his myspace and imdb waiting for him to pump out something new. He was responsible for The Gravedancers, which...

Night of the Demons 2 is quite a handful to attempt to review. I never would have expected to find the beginnings of the modern marriage between horror and comedy in a sequel to a movie that, while it is a cult classic, just doesn’t stand up to the test of time very well. ...

Hellbinders is a low-budget action/horror crossover flick written, directed, and starred in by martial artists and stuntmen who all have some seriously impressive Hollywood resumes. Ray Park, who plays the European accented mercenary who now operates in the City of Angels, was Darth Maul in Star Wars Episode 1 and Toad in the first...

Here’s how I imagine the pitching of Demonwarp went.
Pitcher- “So we wanna make this horror movie, because horror is hot right now and we can make money”
Studio person- “Oh really? What’s it about?”
Pitcher- “Bigfoot…and aliens and zombies and a religious fanatic and titties.”
Studio- “Did I hear you say titties?”
Pitcher- “Yes sir. We wrote down...

Another day, another slasher film.
