by Marc Patterson I don’t know if that headline even makes sense. But it sounds good. Kind of. ANYWAY – I just got word moments ago (so call this hot off the press?) that just in time for your summer pool party comes SuicideGirls Must Die!, which totes itself as the first reality horror movie. [...]

Slasher (2007) DVD Release Date:May 5, 2010 Directed by Frank Montag Review by Marc Patterson I’m a big fan of senseless violence and gratuitous gore. I love the disgusting, sickening, and obscene. I feel that’s like stating the obvious. After all, nobody writes for a site called “Brutal As Hell” for anything less. But if [...]

Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) Directed by: Samuel Bayer Studio: Platinum Dunes Starring: Jackie Earle Haley, Rooney Mara, Kyle Gallner, Katie Cassidy, Thomas Dekker Review by: Dustin Hall Like so many readers, I’m sure, who come to this site, Freddy Krueger is, for me, an icon. As Superman has become an icon of heroism and Americana, [...]

The Caretaker (2009) Studio: MTI Home Video Release Date: February 23, 2010 Directed By: Bryce Olson Cast: Kira Verrastro, James Immekus, Jennifer Tilly, Jennifer Freeman & Judd Nelson Review By: Annie Riordan Sigh… I’m going to invent a new toy.

Red Hook (2009) DVD Release Date: February 16, 2010 Directed By: Elizabeth Lucas Cast: Christina Brucato, Hollis Scarborough, Tate Ellington, Terrence Mann Review By: Kayley Viteo So despite my better judgment (and my boredom), I waded back into the murky waters of Netflix Instant. This one caught my eye because of its female director, who [...]

by Marc Patterson Look, even David Arquette and Courtney Cox Arquette are shocked, as if to say “Look! Craven is back! We’re making another Scream film!” Variety reported earlier that Scream 4 is on and truly happening. Shooting will begin in the near future and a preliminary release date has been set for April 12, [...]

by Ben Bussey UK readers take note – this is what our American friends call a ‘heads-up!’ This coming Saturday, Birmingham’s Custard Factory plays host to Ghouls On Film, a one-day festival to mark Women In Horror Recognition Month organised by Nia Edwards-Behi (who was recently interviewed at Fatally Yours, and a good read it [...]

Happy Birthday to Me. You’re all invited to my party! Better watch out or Ginny, wait I mean Ann? Yes definitely Ann this time, will slit your… cupcake? I can’t, I won’t, and yes I out right refuse to do a Valentine’s Day post just because it’s February and apparently the cool thing to do. [...]

by Marc Patterson I’m not going to lie. I’m a dirty motherfucker. I was a fan of hot tattooed alt chicks well before the internet created a place for them.  It only makes sense.  Tattooed punk rock boys desire sexy tattooed punk rock girls.  But, god bless the web… they have a wonderful place to [...]

by Marc Patterson Here’s one you won’t find readily elsewhere. We just discovered this newly minted trailer and I have to admit – it’s downright sick. I’m not going to say this film actually looks good, because it doesn’t. I see far too many slashers in the course of any given year for that. To [...]

by Marc Patterson This past week several DVD release dates were announced as locked, loaded, and ready to go. Instead of giving each their own special post we figured we might as well includd into one nice little package for you all. Let’s take a look… Blood Creek: First up is Blood Creek, which hits [...]

The story follows Christine Brown (Lohman), a loan officer who is charged with evicting a little old woman from her home; unfortunately, the little old woman is really a gypsy and curses Christine to a [...]

Street date is October 13, 2009, with a pre-book date of September 10, 2009 and a festive SRP of $14.98. This edition of the film, [...]

The good guys from FRAYED (a new slasher film being released in late August from Lionsgate) have just sent us a clip from their upcoming film, which they promise contains “one of the most graphic scenes depicted on film”. Graphic in what way? Violently graphic is surely what we are to assume, but it’s not [...]
