Every horror fan has something in common other than their taste in entertainment, they all love adding to their collection. One of the best ways to do that is with the Horror Pack subscription box. I walked out on my porch Friday to find a box sitting in my rocking chair. I knew it had to be the February Horror Pack box, thanks to tracking updates emailed regularly. I got so excited as I opened it, it felt a bit like Christmas morning. The four Blu-rays were wrapped up nice and tight in their factory packages. The movies in the February box includes Drag Me to Hell: The Director’s Cut, one of the best films from Sam Raimi since Evil Dead; there is 2018’s Elizabeth Harvest, a creepy AF flick; The Darkness starring Kevin Bacon was also included along with the Horror Pack Exclusive indie horror Click Bait. All in all, I’m really happy about the selection. Three of the

Alice (Emily Beecham) toils away breeding plants packed full of good ol’ genetic engineering that her company hopes to sell for a tidy profit along with her co-worker Chris (Ben Wishlaw). One of their major finds is a plant that releases a scent that stimulates happiness in people’s brains. I’m sure nothing wrong will happen involving that experiment… Something goes wrong with that experiment, and soon the plant, dubbed ‘Little Joe’, subtly changes everyone that breathes it’s pollen so that they are happy as clams as intended, but they give zero shits about the outside world and anyone not under Joe’s sway. Will anyone escape the assimilation to happy town, or will the world become strung out on that sweet, sweet Joe? Little Joe is one odd lil’ flick boils n’ ghouls! For starters this is a rather low key, detached affair, a style choice that accentuates the fact that the only way the world can be happy is through

A woman (Jamie Morgan) brings home a box of cursed items she picked up in front of that infamous residence down Long Island way, promptly gets possessed, and offs her entire family, DeFeo style. Flash forward, and our heroine is incarcerated and forced to participate in a felonious fight club with a fellow inmate (Danielle Donahue) which goes over like fart in a submarine, and the duo are shipped off to a private island containing bears, sharks, and mutant zombies, as they so often do, right cats n’ creeps? Anyhow, on said island, a small team of scientists are conducting all manner of eerie experiments and at the center of it all is our friendly neighborhood Psycho Mom, who’s inner demon can leap out and posses the local fauna (including a shark ‘natch) and populace… so you know things are going to go to hell (for some it could be literally) as science and the supernatural clash on the island

Pedo ass-hat Frank (Jay Amari) gets him self unintentionally murder-ized by a gaggle of juvenile delinquents that come to the rescue of his latest victim Sarah (Corynn Treadwell). Given their past, these dudes are none to anxious to dial ol’ 911, so they get the shit-hot idea to torch Frank’s pad… but his wife Molly (Marie Smalley) arrives home just as the demented deed is about to go down, and finds herself a hostage as these killer kids, and their friends whom soon join them, decide their next step! As is the way, further static ensues, and the group, once splintered, grows stronger… but will their bond be enough to see them through this patch of dark waters?

Richie (Kris Reilly) and Cassidy’s (Kaiti Wallen) are having a lil’ shindig, and they’ve had the seemingly shit-hot idea of hiring a psychic named Vesna (Aphrodite Nikolovski) to tickle the ol’ preternatural pickle and hopefully conjure up some grins. Well ol’ V-dawg suggests the group have themselves a lil’ seance action, which leaves Rich a tad lukewarm, seeing as how he’s a skeptical bastard at heart. Well, as fate, and horror movie goings-on would have it, his instincts are right, as during that spirit chat sesh, some eerie entity or another decides our world is looks waaay better than nay demonic digs it now inhabits and decides to cross the veil right quick… and bad news, said presence may actually be the spirit of richie’s long-dead Pappy, which would really place the terror turd well and truly in the ol’ punch bowl!

In the middle of one of them there zombie apocalypses (a more common occurrence than one would believe if our beloved horror biz is to be believed), a rag-tag group of survivors who’s ranks include, but are not limited to: a dude lookin’ straight out of the ’70s, a woman who continuously shoves people’s faces into her breasts, a rather fab zombie exterminator, and a school girl with a baseball bat. The long and the short of it is, these misfits have to band together and form a fighting force capable of withstanding this horrific outbreak of living dead… so, there probably as good as fucked… Make no mistake, Zombie Rampage 2 is an ultra-low budget affair, so you can take any expectations of Hollywood gloss, put in a box, and shove it right up your arcane ass. Now, as you lot know; that is aces with yours cruelly, and what this fright flick lacks in polish it makes up

Cram themselves into an RV and go on a jaunt through every campsite straight through California way.

Meet Miles, (Daniel Radcliffe) a game programmer who spends way too much time trolling the fans of Skizm, a life or death game that has taken the world by storm. Miles bullies the wrong person and ends up waking up with guns bolted to the palms of his hands. But it gets worse, the guy he pissed off runs Skizm and he’s sent his best player after Miles, the psycho killer Nix (Samara Weaving). And the shit hits the fan! There are so many great things about Guns Akimbo. The nearly constant action is more than enough to make your head explode. The acting is top-notch. Director Jason Lei Howden has created a hardcore action flick that will leave you cheering. When I first heard that Radcliffe was set to star in action flick I was a bit surprised. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve been a fan since his Harry Potter days, but Radcliffe has never played a part like
