GIBSON NAILS DOWN NEW PROJECT
“Hammerin’” Mel Gibson will use the sweet, sweet cash he made from THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST to finance his next film entitled “Apocalypto.” According to Gibson, the film’s stars will be unrecognizable to most moviegoers, and they will speak in the Mayan tongue of Yucateco. It will be light on dialogue and heavy on [...]

SPIKE AND MIKE’S SICK AND TWISTED FESTIVAL OF ANIMATION: CAUGHT IN THE ACT (DVD)
“Spike and Mike’s Sick and Twisted Festival of Animation” has a reputation for featuring some top notch comedy and “cartoons.”
This DVD compilation is no exception…

BATMAN: TWO-DISC SPECIAL EDITION (DVD)
|
|
  Year Released: 1989 MPAA Rating: PG-13 Running Time: 126 minutes |
Both Tim Burton’s “Batman” and Christopher Nolan’s “Batman Begins” hit some false notes, but both films still manage to capture, as Jack Nicholson puts it in the special features on this release, the right flavor. The 1989 version of the Dark Knight unfortunately puts him in what appears to be a suit of armor, thus [...]

THE SUCKLING (DVD)
|
  Year Released: 1990 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 89 minutes |
HALLOWEEN RECOMMENDATION! Holy crap, how this movie slipped through anyone’s fingers is beyond me. Usually you hear about horror movies that are this odd, violent, hilarious, and downright terrible, but somehow this movie never made it to early morning Cinemax along side “Dead Alive” or “The Toxic Avenger…”

ZOMBIES VS SATAN (DVD)

|
Year Released: 2004 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 127 minutes |
Embodying many of the qualities that make Troma so endearing and frustrating is the “Zombies VS Satan” collection showcasing both Adam Minarovich’s “Wiseguys VS Zombies” and David Silvio’s “Meat for Satan’s Icebox”…

THE THING ON THE DOORSTEP (DVD)
|
  Year Released: 2003 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 26 minutes |
Director Eric Morgret might not have the budget for something as grotesquely creative as fellow Lovecraft admirer Stuart Gordon, but he’s able to keep his twisted tale moving along. “The Thing on the Doorstep” makes up for its nonexistent budget with momentum to burn…

LUST FOR DRACULA (DVD)
|
  Year Released: 2004 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 100 minutes |
Before being accused of overanalyzing a softcore feature I must point out that the movie goes out of its way to attempt to convey a depth it clearly does not possess…

WHAT IS IT?
|
  Year Released: 2005 MPAA Rating: Unrated Running Time: 72 minutes |
Like the “masterpieces” of this genre, of which I would include Jodorowsky’s “Holy Mountain” and “Fellini Satyricon”, “What is it?” is nearly impossible to adequately describe, think about, or even review…
