by Marc Patterson Exciting news for fans of Dario Argento. His long lost film from 1971, Four Flies on Grey Velvet will be getting a Blu-ray release this December from Shameless Video. What makes this especially noteworthy is that if fans remember correctly – this film saw a release to DVD in 2008 by Mya [...]

by Marc Patterson We caught word awhile back that Blue Underground was planning to release Lucio Fulci’s highly celebrated Zombie (aka Zombi 2) this coming fall. We were beside ourselves with excitement. Now we have confirmed info on that release as well as details on all the extras, which include two full discs. Looks like [...]

by Marc Patterson Arrow Video continues their relentless streak of cult cinema domination by putting two new classic horror titles on deck, Pieces and Cat O’ Nine Tails. First up, we’re talking about the seminal, highly-influential, and goretastic release of Juan Piquer Simón’s Pieces. I’ll be an egotistical bastard and quote my own review: Cheese, [...]

If you have not watched this weeks episode we strongly encourage you NOT to read this article until you have done so. Thank you – The Management. At the end [...]

by Marc Patterson I feel like we’re constantly pouring criticism on today’s gutless filmmakers, out for a quick cash-grab and to rape horror fans of their hard-earned dollars at the box office. To a point, we need to. It’s our job to cut through the bullshit and separate the men from the boys, so to [...]

by Marc Patterson Intervision Picture Corp, through a newly forged relationship with Severin Films is starting to roll out to DVD a virtually lost library of gory horror flicks. The invasion began with Sledgehammer, which in addition to a DVD release got a cool clamshell re-issue thanks to a partnership with The Alamo Drafthouse and [...]

by Marc Patterson I first got introduced to Stevan Mena’s directorial work with Brutal Massacre: A Comedy, a film that I remember to this day for being one of Gunnar Hansen’s most comedic moments. If you don’t mind some self-aware tongue-in-cheek comedy mixed in with your horror you should make a point to check it [...]

by Marc Patterson I haven’t seen this The Shrine yet, but I’ve been following it’s progress for a little while now and it looks like it’s going to be a lot of eerie fun. Perhaps not strikingly original, but should evoke some atmosphere that hints at films like The Wicker Man, Wake Wood, crossed over [...]

by Marc Patterson Here’s the WTF news of the day. Shark Night 3D, a film we were sure that would prove equally as fun as last years Piranha 3D has been just handed a PG-13 rating by the MPAA. Usually I wouldn’t get my panties all waded into a bunch over a bit of news [...]

by Marc Patterson Sometimes a picture (or in this case pictures – plural) say more than words ever could. When I saw these images of Michael Rooker I enjoyed a much needed chuckle. (I know… that sounds pretty lame, but it’s just the kind of week it’s been). Apparently someone out there feels Michael Rooker [...]

by Marc Patterson With Image Entertainment having purchased a good deal of Anchor Bay’s back catalog we’re starting to see a slow progression of these title released to Blu-ray. The latest among them is what I like to call Wes Craven’s fucked-up version of A Tale of Two Cities, The Hills Have Eyes. On one [...]

by Marc Patterson Adrian Garcia Bogliano has had one impressive career so far. Starting with Rooms for Tourists, he went on to create 36 Pasos, which led Cold Sweat, a film we caught at SXSW this past year. (read review here). With Cold Sweat picked up for US distribution through MPI/Dark Sky Films, slated for [...]

by Marc Patterson Move over Mommy Dearest. Meet Mother Maggie. Now I know what you’re thinking. Here’s an announcement for a film you won’t see for another six months. In six months no one is going to remember this news bit. (Hell, I’ll be lucky if you remember it next week). Nonetheless this is a [...]

by Marc Patterson We just had a rather interesting trailer dropped in our lap from Cinema Purgatorio. The film is called Daylight and is from writer/director David Barker, who seems to be a newcomer to the feature filmmaking stage, even though IMDB credits his experience back to 1999. The trailer is fairly trippy, but seems [...]

by Marc Patterson Whether it was Kairo (Pulse) or Chakushin Ari (One Missed Call), the Japanese have done a great job of combining various technophobia’s with ghostly terror. Now it seems it’s South Korea’s turn to get in the game with a film called Unidentified Video. Currently we don’t really know much about this film [...]

by Nia Edward-Behi Here’s the brand new shiny poster for Rod Lurie’s remake of Straw Dogs for Sony Screen Gems, which stars James Marsden, Alexander Skarsgård and Kate Boswell, and is due for release in the US in September and the UK a month later. Clearly taking its inspiration from the iconic poster for the [...]

by Nia Edwards-Behi DreadCentral reports today that genre favourite Bill Moseley has been cast in the upcoming The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3D/Leatherface 3D/whatever it’s called. I’m sorry. Forgive my somewhat disdainful tone. There’s every possibility that Leatherface 3D will be an interesting, even good film. After all, it’s going to be about Heather, a woman [...]
