The Dead Want Women (2012)

Dead Want Women banner

It had been ages since I saw one of Charles band’s movies, though I’d grown up on many of his features. However, my tolerance for his work waned in my latter years. Still, when I heard about his latest release, THE DEAD WANT WOMEN, I grew interested again. I have nothing but admiration for Band, … Read more

DRIVER FOR THE DEAD (2011)

driver-for-the-dead-banner

Like most people my age I know, I grew up with comic books. I could extol upon the virtues of the medium, the perfect harmony between the cerebral depth of books and the visual fluidity of cinema, the evolution of the medium into a respectable art form. But really, I just liked seeing Ghost Rider … Read more

THE DIVIDE (2011)

the-divide-banner

As far back as I could remember, I always wanted to be a survivor. And I’m not talking about surviving some reality show. I mean surviving when everyone else was dead. Surviving the End of the World. My favourite movie from a very young age was Charlton Heston’s THE OMEGA MAN. I imagined myself as … Read more

Special Horror Feature: The Zombie Experience

Zombie Experience banner

“If wishes were horses, we’d all ride.” People are supposed to be the sum of their experiences, whether they’re experiences that happen to us, or experiences that we make happen. And everyone’s sum is unique: in some forty-odd years, I’ve been married and divorced, lived in a dozen different places, worked on nuclear warheads in … Read more

REQUIEM FOR THE DAMNED (2012)

Requiem for the Damned banner

Welcome back from your holiday, Deggsy!! You were missed when gone, and I’m glad to have ya back with your warped and twisted inside look at the horror genre!! It seems like you’ve come back with both barrels locked and loaded. —– Edgar Allan Poe will soon be on everyone’s lips again, as interest rises … Read more

Dead Genesis (2010)

banner

As we all know, a zombie film, or indeed any horror film, can be more than just scares and gore; it can deliver a message too (thank you, Mr Romero). I say why not, so long as the filmmaker remembers to entertain us. And the social commentary can touch on any subject. The aforementioned Romero … Read more

Intruders (2012)

Intruders Banner

“The visions, the nightmares of a child are perhaps the most frightening and horrifying…” So went the opening narration in the KOLCHAK: THE NIGHT STALKER episode where Kolchak went after a Spanish Moss Monster, a Bayou Boogeyman conjured up from the subconscious of a narcoleptic Cajun. I wanted to use the above quote, even though … Read more

Lesbians vs Zombies: Book Series Review

LVZ Logo2

Hope and Crosby. Simon and Garfunkel. Ham and Pineapple. Combinations you never thought would work well together, but when they do get together, you wonder why no one had thought of them before. Or you don’t. It’s late in the evening when I’m writing this, so it sounds profound to me. To that list maybe … Read more

Night of the Living Dead 3D: Re-Animation (2012)

banner

If I had to sum up my review of this in one word? Disappointing. I went in blindly, knowing very little about it except that it starred two of my favorite living genre actors: the indefatigable Jeffrey Combs, the RE-ANIMATOR himself (hence the reference in the long title of this opus), and former WISHMASTER Andrew … Read more

Splinter (2009)

Splinter banner

Now here’s a little gem I stumbled on from British director Toby Wilkins (THE GRUDGE 3), one that was made a couple of years ago but I never heard about. I’m always like that, usually so very late for the good stuff. Someday I’m gonna find out what’s so wonderful about girls’ boobs… The movie … Read more
