Yes, I’m in AL. Hmm, I’m intrigued but might skip this one for now.

Hey, I’m not sure if you should bother. I converted and burned that YouTube version to DVD and watched it this morning. While it’s not the worst thing I’ve ever seen, my mind definitely painted it a much rosier color than it actually was. The first half is VERY slow. Nothing much happens. It does pick up a bit after that. I won’t give away any spoilers in case you still want to watch it. Just know that you were warned! (The film is set in Alabama. Isn’t that where you live?)

I am looking forward to it.

Yes. I’ll report back with all the torrid details.

Sounds cool, will you review it for your series?

Hmm. Maybe that’ll work for Terror Trash Tuesday then. Lol

From what I remember, it was about Confederate dead rising up to seek revenge on some “Yankee” National Guardsmen.

Oh, and, yes. I’ll be watching a film a day up to Halloween. So definitely check back next Saturday for more random and some obscure horror goodness.

Yeah, I’m not sure what I was expecting from Baskin but I appreciate the style and direction. I honestly think this director would be perfect for a Hellraiser remake. That said, the eyeball moment made me scream just an teenie bit.

I’m sure the copy I have looks like shit as well…most of them do. Maybe I’ll give it a watch this week. Do you think it would qualify as a monster movie?

Honestly I haven’t seen the whole movie in thirty years. I remember loving it as a kid. I found it on YouTube, and watched some of it, but it is very poor quality. I have been on the lookout for it to come out on DVD for many years, but it never has. It probably sucks, but for nostalgia’s sake, I’d love to get a hold of it. It has three things I like: two actors from Star Trek, zombies, and the zombies are Confederate (I’m a big Civil War buff). I can’t really say I’d recommend it, because I’m sure you know how time can color your memory when it comes to movies and TV.

Lol. Yes! I haven’t actually watched it yet but I thought it had a great cover. Do you recommend it?

We seem to like a lot of the same stuff, so I’m sure it’ll be fine.

On another note, I was wondering if you happen to have in your digital VHS archive a piece of golden garbage from the 80’s called The Supernaturals. It was a zombie flick starring Nichelle Nichols and LeVar Burton.

Well, I think you’ll enjoy it. If not – unmm…ill make another recommendation?

Hey, it’s too late for that. You should have said this earlier. Once I make a declaration, I stand by it! (jk)

Hey, now! Don’t expect a missing classic. But it’s good Halloween fun (even if it doesn’t take place at Halloween).

I remember her show when I was a kid, but I never knew she starred in a movie. I see that Netflix has it (and yes, I still get the DVD’s), so I will check it out. It better be good, or I will come and find you! LOL

I think you may enjoy Elvira. It’s got a tongue in cheek vibe similar to those two, but it’s not really horror…just horror adjacent.

BASKIN was a big disappointment. the spider scene had me screaming/jumping out of my chair though. LOL.

Lol. Trust me. There’s a lot that I find horrible. I just tend not to write/coment on it. There was no getting around this one, though. It was pure hot garbage.
