The Glory Stompers (1967)

Excellent riding sequences and plenty of action made this a great movie to watch. You won’t see the excessive carnage that I saw in “The Savage Seven” and “The Losers” but this movie has more than enough brutality to qualify…

The Man Who Could Cheat Death (1959)

Without even knowing anything about the story or themes of “The Man Who Could Cheat Death”, you can already rest assured for 100% that the film will be a worthwhile, adequate and highly competent viewing experience. How so? Because this…

The House That Screamed (1970)

A young girl (Cristina Galbó) arrives at an isolated boarding school in the south of France where several students are believed to have run away, but were actually the victims of a psychotic killer… Odd mixture of giallo mystery and…

Starcrash (1978)

Take Caroline Munro. Put her in a leather space bikini with matching boots, give her a ridiculous looking laser gun, have someone get some oil on her chest and we are talking entertainment. Now, add a plot that is reminiscent…

The Dunwich Horror (1970)

Sandra Dee (the original GIDGET to you beach bunny fans) is Nancy Wagner, a virginal blonde student at Miskatonic University who meets Wilbur (Dean Stockwell), the grandson of a warlock who was lynched years earlier. Wilbur shows interest in the…

The Devil Rides Out/Devil’s Bride (1973)

THE DEVIL RIDES OUT, while it came along almost 10 years after Hammer first started churning out horror films, is possibly the best horror film they ever produced. Even though HORROR OF DRACULA and CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF rank highly…

Bamboo Gods and Iron Men (1974)

James Iglehart (Randy Black in “Beyond the Valley of the Dolls”) is front and centre for this amiable, goofy Filipino martial arts action flick. Iglehart plays Cal Jefferson, American prizefighter honeymooning in Asia with his new bride (Shirley Washington). While…

Cry of the Banshee (1970)

Gordon Hessler’s “Cry Of The Banshee” of 1970 is certainly one of the weaker films with the great Vincent Price, but it is still a pretty good horror flick, and certainly way underrated. I must add, however, that Vincent Price…

descent or degeneration to a lower or worse state. When VHS came on the scene, there was hand wringing and worry amongst the media prognosticators that this medium would spell the doom for the theatrical exhibition business. This did not…

Equinox (1970)

Originally made in 1967, THE EQUINOX…A JOURNEY INTO THE SUPERNATURAL is basically a 70-minute home movie – amateurish if clearly made by fanatics of the horror genre, talented enough to create their own monsters (which aren’t too bad into the…

Russian Roulette (1975)

Tense and high wire-like thriller set in the Canadian city of Vancouver about an attempted assassination of Soviet Primer Kosygin by a rouge KGB group thats in charge of his protection. With the Cold War winding down it looks like…

Death Ship (1980)

The plot is reasonably simple but inarguably bizarre. In the opening scenes, a luxury cruise ship packed with holidaymakers collides with some kind of ghastly black vessel in the middle of the ocean. The cruiser sinks, killing almost everyone on…

The Astro-Zombies (1968)

The Astro-Zombies is one of those Z-grade efforts where you can tell the producers had a bunch of props and sets left over from previous productions and wrote a script based around them. Therefore, the film makes absolutely no sense,…

Riders to the Stars (1954)

Pretty decent, low-budget sci-fi film about a group of men first being selected for a dangerous space mission to lasso a meteor in space and return it to Earth so its outer hull can be analyzed. The men are taken…
