Phase IV (1974)

I love when a movie poster is totally wrong. There are no giant ants, the earth is not turned into a cemetery, the shiny dome does not catch on fire, and ants do not climb out of a bloody hole in a person's hand. The hole isn't bloody when they do that. Yeah, it's a … Continue reading Phase IV (1974) →

Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977)

Man, the '70s were weird. Exorcist II: The Heretic is not the most '70s film I've ever seen; that honor belongs to The Visitor. But this movie sure as hell is trying. I really am not sure what to make of it. It pretty much took the plot of The Exorcist and decided to give … Continue reading Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977) →

Bite (2015)

You may not have guessed this, but I enjoy a good body horror movie from time to time.  Or a bad one, but I suppose that's neither here nor there.  The important thing is that when Bite premiered at Fantasia Film Festival, barf bags were handed out.  They got used, too.  Apparently people don't like … Continue reading Bite (2015) →

Slugs, Muerte Viscosa (1988)

Oh, oh, it's just...oh, that's nasty. Oh, gross. Please, movie, stop! Oh God, why? Why did those explode out of his face? Why did the slugs choose to eat her eyeball while she was still alive? Why did that dead man's intestines explode? Slugs is another creature feature, like The Nest, only far grosser in … Continue reading Slugs, Muerte Viscosa (1988) →

The Nest (1988)

Roger Corman's wife Julie Corman produced a film written by Stephen King's brother Richard King about killer cockroaches on an island! Hell yes! The evil corporation INTEC has moved onto an island off the coast of New England with the help of a small town mayor. But soon INTEC's experimental cockroaches get loose, and food, … Continue reading The Nest (1988) →

Blue Monkey (1987)

No, there are no monkeys in this movie. There is some blue at least, but an alternate title was going to be Green Monkey, and that makes even less sense. In some regions this movie was called Invasion of the Bodysuckers, which sounds like a porno, while in Australia it was called Insect...which is actually … Continue reading Blue Monkey (1987) →
