My earliest horror memories are not of being scared by the movies, but rather having a whole lot of fun watching them. I fell in love with Freddy Krueger at a pretty young age, perhaps younger than one should be at the time of delving into the genre, and I can count on one hand …
It’s no secret that us fans are nostalgic for 80s slasher flicks, and countless films that have come along in the past decade have attempted to recreate the magic of that era – with varying results. There’s perhaps no film that accomplished the task better than Adam Green’s Hatchet – a movie that new release …
Something very unusual happened to me about 2 weeks ago. I paid the bills, made sure the kids had everything they needed, did the grocery shopping, and when I finished for the day and looked in my wallet there was a little bit of money left over! After regaining consciousness and picking myself up off …
The ‘mash-up’ film has become a bonafide sub-genre of horror in recent years, with movies like Sharktopus, Piranhaconda and the upcoming Zombeavers stitching together two different things to form silly slices of entertainment. You can now add the brand spankin’ new WolfCop to the mix, which has a similar target demographic in mind. Though the …
Welcome back fiends, I hope you all had a happy horror-filled weekend and feel refreshed and prepared for the week ahead. My ongoing quest to learn everything I can about the alternative movie art community and the main players within it has reached an exciting destination today (for me personally), as I have finally got …

It’s a very controversial sentence, and …
This week my quick-fire artistic interview features a chat with an insanely talented gentleman called Vlad Rodriguez. I’ve been keeping an eye on Vlad’s work for quite some time, but it was the arrival of a wonderfully unique piece of art linked to the Alien franchise that really attracted my attention toward the end of …
The shot on video (SOV) format has been a tried and true staple of the horror community ever since the days of “Boardinghouse“. From time to time, a movie comes around that claims to be a “throwback” or an “homage” to these days of horror old. None more so than HI-8. A concept where eight …

After being taken to the titular Island of Dr. Moreau in the oft-maligned 1996 adaptation of H. G. Wells’ classic novel, Edward Douglas describes the location as being “the most outrageous spectacle” he has ever witnessed. It’s a fitting line, as the film’s hellish production was precisely that. There are few things more intriguing than …
