Irwin Keyes: Wrestlemaniac’s Reigning Grind House Father! By Brian Kirst
In many a genre fan’s book, character actor Irwin Keyes is a legend. From his first appearances in films like The Warriors and Friday the 13th (as the busboy in Robbi Morgan’s diner scene) to Grind House epics like Chained Heat and The Exterminator (”I was eaten alive by hundreds of rats in the film!”) to current gruesome fare like House of 1000 Corpses (”We shot all…

REVIEW: Johnny Sunshine
Review By AngryPrincess
At first glance I thought this androgynous like creature was a man in woman’s digs but I was wrong Johnny Sunshine is definitely a female and she likes the kill fuck. Johnny might be a female but she kills like a man. She can kick some major ass and will if you fuck with her. In Johnny’s world reality TV is the in thing. Well wait a minute,…

Nature Morte
Nature Morte. 2008. Redemption. Reviewed by Brian Kirst
Like Salvador Dali on methamphetamines, director Paul Burrows brings his Nature Morte to dripping, breathing life. He presents a visually kinetic ride with sweeping artistry, the classic elements of giallo productions and a fascinating corollary to the Denzel Washington horror-thriller Fallen.

World premiere of AMATEUR PORN STAR KILLER 2
Some artists thrive when their personal relationships are suffering. Rapper Eminem is a great example. Some of his best material was written when he was fighting with his wife or mother. The same can be said about Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix, who often writes full albums about relationship problems even though he’s been married for 12 years. Filmmaker Shane Ryan, whose world premiere of “Amateur Porn Star Killer 2”…

REVIEW: Clay
Review by AngryPrincess
Crazy split screens introduce us to Clay’s demented stake out to the chosen one, the one that was brought to him by his own hands. It was interesting to watch how he picked his victims. Once you are touched- your fucked and there is no turning back. Clay is an introverted type of guy that just wants someone to treat him like son while embracing him as a…
Gutterballs’ Nathan Witte
Nathan Witte: Gutterballs’ Heroic God of Gore. By Brian Kirst
Long hours, little sleep, caloric breakfasts and lots and lots of blood! Such is the experience of making a low budget horror film – especially if you’re Nathan Witte and the lead in director Ryan Nicholson’s follow-up to his flesh peeling Live Feed, Gutterballs.
But such toiling is worth it if you’re getting maximum exposure as the hero of a film with one…
Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror
Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror. Dimension. 1998. Reviewed by Brian Kirst.
Genre films of the mid to late 1990’s have an undeniable ascetic of their very own. Like certain periods of art, they can be often be categorized by the knowledgeable viewer without detailed information of the product at hand. Defined by decent (though low-end) budgets, these films are often filled with casts of faded superstars, solid working…
