X-Ray (1981)
“Hospital Massacre” is a pretty low aiming shot in the mid 1980’s slasher stakes, and it has so many crappy moments in it that you should have a good laugh while watching it. Basically, glamour model Barbi Benton plays Susan…

Horror Castle (1963)
“La Vergine Di Norimberga” (aka. “The Virgin Of Nuremberg”/”Terror Castle”) is a wonderfully atmospheric, and delicately demented Gothic gem from genius director Antonio Margheriti, that should appeal to every fan of the uncanny. No true Horror fan or even cineaste…

The House That Dripped Blood (1971)
Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Joss Ackland, Jon Pertwee…hey, this is one heck of a B-movie cast! All my British friends, together in the same horror anthology. Bliss. Mind you, I’m generally not too crazy about Amicus films; they’re more screwed-up…

A Lizard in a Woman’s Skin (1971)
The ‘godfather of gore’ Lucio Fulci is certainly most famous for his gory Zombie flicks, such as “Zombi 2” (1979), “City of the Living Dead” (1980), or “The Beyond” (1980). Great films, of course, but, as far as I…
It Came From New Jersey

Hercules Against the Moon Men (1964)
Alan Steele makes a nice Hercules. Jany Clair makes a very beautiful evil queen. The fanged monkey-monster is hilarious and kind of cool. The head moon man is weird enough. The rock moon men are OK. The fight scenes are…
Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)
“Killer Klowns from Outer Space”(1988)by Stephen Chiodo is a horror movie so ridiculous that it’s hard to dislike it.What makes it work so well is that it successfully toys with our expectations.Some people just hate clowns,and this movie exaggerates everything…
