As part of a 1989 Italian television project called The Houses of Doom, six films were commissioned to be directed by Lucio Fulci (The Beyond), Umberto Lenzi (Cannibal Ferox) and Lamberto Bava (Demons). However, with both Bava, and his replacement, dropping out, only 4 films were completed. Deemed far too …

The “based on true events” film trend of the mid to late 1970’s provided for some truly unhinged cinematic moments, none more crazy than 1977’s Blue Sunshine.

Holes. There’s lots of them in the first feature from Brian Yuzna & John Penney’s Dark Arts Entertainment. Fortunately for newly minted writer/director Jake MacPherson, Terror Firma (not to be confused with the Tromatic masterpiece Terror Firmer) has a big hole in a garden plot, but not in the actual …

Okay, say you’re in Thailand and you want to make a quick buck. You’re thinking maybe shoot a movie, glomming onto the success of Jaws or maybe a Godzilla type flick. Jaws it is then, but you want to giant radioactive lizard in it too, so maybe not a total …

At the risk of coming off as if I’m pigeonholing an entire ethnic group, I will make the following statement (that I believe in my heart is 100% true): Italians have made some fucking bonkers films. Exhibit A: Rat Man. Directed by Giuliano Carnimeo (Find A Place To Die), and …

An all new horror/comedy from A & P Productions, who brought you last years Murdercise, dropped the new teaser trailer for their upcoming film OnlyFangs (read our coming soon article HERE). Work sucks. Be a vampire! Check it out! After running a successful IndieGoGo (which is still live HERE ) …
