Skin Flicks – Movie Review:

Gerard Damiano’s 1978 film Skin Flicks was clearly a more personal effort than you’d expect from an adult movie. The film revolves around a filmmaker named Harry (Tony Hudson) who makes his living as a director of adult films. Harry is, in a word, done. He tries to make ...

For A Few Dollars More – Movie Review:

The unexpected and unprecedented box office success of A Fistful Of Dollars catapulted Clint Eastwood to stardom and spurred into production, less than a year later, a sequel to capitalize on his new found fame. The result was a darker, funnier, and all around better film in the form of For A Few Dollars More, the second collaboration between Sergio Leone and Clint Eastwood but this time with the undeniably fantastic screen ...

Robot Holocaust – Movie Review:

Directed by Tim Kinkaid in 1986, Robot Holocaust is a fairly horrible, yet somehow loveable, low budget science fiction film set in a post-apocalyptic future. Here we meet Neo (Norris Culf of Necropolis and Breeders, the latter also directed by Kincaid), a drifter type ...

Eriz Stanze’s latest feature starts with an intense pre-credits sequence wherein we meet a pretty blonde woman whose internal narration gives us some background on her situation. She suffers from a disease, the same disease that killed her mother. Her father abandoned her and she was raised by her aunt. She had an otherwise happy childhood but that was all in the past. In the present, she ...

Wild Pussycat / The Deserter – Movie Review:

Mondo Macabro, the only company currently doing much of anything to preserve Greek exploitation oddities and genre pictures, offers up a double dose of vintage sleaze from the Hellenic Republic!

The Wild Pussycat:

First up, 1968’s The Wild Pussycat, a film that introduces us to a sleazy son of a bitch named Nick (Kostas Prekas). He lives with his girlfriend, Vera (Kaiti Imbrohori), until ...

Hemisphere Box Of Horrors – Movie Review:

Although Hemisphere Pictures will always be best known for the notorious Blood Island films, there’s more to their catalogue than just those four films. Severin Films dips back into the Hemisphere well with this second collection, compiling three of the studio’s better-known efforts – The Blood Drinkers, Curse Of The Vampires and Brain Of Blood - and an exclusive bonus disc containing two more of their efforts, The Black Cat and The Torture Chamber Of Dr. Sadism!

The Blood Drinkers:

Up first, the story of one Dr. Marco (Ronald Remy), a Dracula-esque figure who runs about his Filipino homeland decked out in a long black cape and sporting a freshly shaved head (and occasionally some bad ass sunglasses)! He’s accompanied by a hunchback with bad hair and horrible teeth, a sadistic dwarf and a foxy lady friend named Tania (Eva Montes).

Marco has a problem – his beautiful bride, Katrina (Amalia Fuentes), is dying. Understandably, this upsets him but he has a plan, and that’s to steal away her twin sister Charito (Fuentes again), who has been raised far away from her Katrina by her aunt and uncle, and ...

Del Toro and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola produced these two movies and they managed to get the cast members ...

Sister Street Fighter Collection – Movie Reviews:

If Sonny Chiba was Japan's answer to Bruce Lee, then maybe you could consider Etsuko ‘Sue' Shihomi (often credited as Shiomi) to be Japan's answer to Angela Mao (who was originally considered for the lead role in the first film). Though she retired from the public eye completely after getting married in the eighties, from the mid-seventies through the mid-eighties she was a stable of the Japanese action film scene and she starred in well over thirty feature films before calling it quits. Sort of a female Sonny Chiba protégé (she was trained at Chiba's Japan Action Club), she never the less managed to carve out a niche of her own thanks in no small part to the four films ...
