Scarewaves=Not Scary

This is a new anthology film released by Camp on one of  their Sister Labels,  I loved the idea of this anthology. The wrap around has a disc jockey telling scary stories to his audience problem is although a bit entertaining they are not scary at all. The first story really makes no sense an artist who every time it turns midnight does a chant & some Demon from hell kills his models until one turns the tables & then ends up working for the demon, Been there done that. Next up two cousins rob an armored car, One of the cousins wife tries to seduce the other he turns her down ,He then tells his cousin her dirty trick & they decide to kill her she comes back to life & the cousin gets so freaked out he accidently shoots his cousin blah blah Yes Cousin 1 & Cousin 2. Next up The Best story in the anthology is about a trigger happy cop who gets a job as a security guard and is haunted by his past, it comes back to get him, We are back to the wrap around disc jockey gets a call that he owes money dude shows up with a gun but oh scary the disc jokey is a vampire. The movie was entertaining but these just are not good enough Horror films that anyone should go out & spend money on when you can just go buy something great like Creepshow & so many others. oops I almost forgot there was one more story It was about a couple who plan on killing the boyfriends Girlfriend so they can be together, meanwhile the disc jokey is telling you these stories. Yes I watched the whole thing I confess.

OLD 37 Is Nothing New

I won't say this is a bad film by any means but it's not something I would wanna watch twice. Unless your a huge fan of Kane Hodder killing kids this movie really isn't all that great or original. It starts off with a girl laying in the road injured when a paramedic of course shows up and kills her, while all this is going on there are 2 boys watching from the ambulance. It turns out these two boys are from an abusive family & grow up to be our main killers like father like son Bill Moseley & Kane Hodder. They are not actually paramedics they actually run a junk yard intercept 911 calls & live like complete white  trash that we are all to familiar with from films like House of a thousand corpses and The Texas Chainsaw massacre. Mosley the older brother started torturing his younger brother Hodder as a kid in a like father like son fashion which is why Hodder wears the mask to cover his messed up face. We FWD to present day & while drag racing an old lady checks her mail it blows out of her hand in a gust of wind causing her to go in the road and retrieve it & all of a sudden...Splat the woman is creamed by a car drag racing & the kids in fear they will go to jail just decide to leave her there. It turns out this in fact is Moseley & Hodder's Mother which I saw coming from a mile away so they seek revenge on the teenagers. It's really not that gory or exciting but it is entertaining for one watch, If it didn't have these horror icons in it I don't think it would have anything redeemable about it at all except it had a fairly decent budget, This would of been better as a pretend trailer or even a short film, it just dragged on & was very predictable. But not a terrible film by any means, Old 37 also has a surprise appearance from Lloyd Kaufman . In closing if your a Huge Kane Hodder fan Check it out if not I wouldn't waste my time.

Knightmare by SRS studios Is just that a Nightmare!

It's hard to believe that one of my favorite Indie directors Mark Polonia partnered up to make this garbage. I know Sub Rosa with few exceptions is notorious for putting out bad movies but torture is another thing. I remember watching vampire Inbred Rednecks and my god it was worse then waiting in the ER for 8 hrs. This film was mostly dialogue & all the killing happens in the last 10 mins, The film is about a High School reunion where some guy is mad because his classmates narced on him for cheating on his finals so he throws a reunion and decides to kill them wearing a Knight outfit which was never explained. Not Much Gore here just a lot of bickering for an hr between a bunch of bitches until the Guy throwing the party laces everyone's drink with acid and goes on a 10 min Killing spree the End. Dumb & not even loosely  cult classic material. I sup[pose the directors made 300 bucks woopie . Don't waste your time. The trailer is better then the film check it out & save your money for something better.

Raiders of the lost Shark-More Garbage with Great Art!

I noticed a couple distributors ...Cough Wild Eye & Sub Rosa Films can come up with some great artwork to sell a movie but whats behind that artwork being the film is Garbage. So this film which is brought to you by Wild EYE Releasing starts off with two guys guarding what is supposed to be a beach but looks more like a gross ass lake that nobody would even fish in let alone swim. They decide to bring dates to ease their work day & go for a swim when they all get eaten by a terrible CGI Shark. I mean this is some of the worst CGI I've ever seen. Meanwhile a teacher who's sister was killed by a shark years prior is hired to investigate & at this point I was 45 mins in and bored to tears so I turned to movie off...some reviewer right? Well I guess bad publicity is still good publicity as they say, Don't waste your time with this one, The only good thing about this film is the cool cover.

The Scorpions Forever And A Day

I usually don't review these kind of movies but The Scorpions have been tightly knitted into the fabric of 80's Heavy Metal the era in which Horror & Metal was booming and life was just fun. In high school I always remember kids digging horror & wearing Scorpions T-Shirts and it was always an event going to see them in concert along with lots of other bands but were talking about one band here The Scorps! I really enjoyed watching this film it is a very in depth documentary of the band from their early beginnings to today. The interviews with the band are mostly in German and the film is subtitled but it still does not take away from the great story that is the Scorpions, There is also lots of great footage, It is inspiring to see how people make it to the big time & what they did to get there. The smartest thing I think the Scorpions did as told in this film was if a record was released in a specific country they made sure they played there thats a group who is always interested in the fans & that is what makes this band great, I urge anyone who digs metal & wants to be inspired to pick up this DVD.

Scorpions Blu Ray!

The Black Cats Arrow Films releases two Italian Classics in one box set!

This is a fantastic Box set I was very surprised with Sergio Martino's Film It was an amazing Giallo film he of course was responsible for Torso one of my Favorite Giallo films. Also included is an amazing booklet about these two films, Of course most horror fans know Fulci's Black cat but never has it looked this Good Arrow has done a fantastic job and the price is right. They are also releasing some amazing titles which have never even seen a DVD release let alone a Blu Ray release.

I highly suggest getting this and adding it to your collection.
