Blu-ray Review: Siege (1983)
Among a backdrop of civil unrest and labor disputes, downtown Halifax becomes a warzone. At a local gay bar, a group of homophobic rioters crash the scene smacking their hands with the tools they carry in a scene that has absolutely zero symbolism whatsoever. Anyway, those assholes, along with their absolutely psychotic ringleader, the oft-mentioned Cabe (a chilling performance from Doug Lennox), take out everyone in the bar execution-style (seriously, Siege holds not a fucking thing back… this is hardcore shit) after they witness an “accidental” death at the mob’s hands. Thankfully one dude beats feet outta there and hides out in the apartment of Horatio (Tom Nardini), a social worker for blind kids with super-human hearing (never even discussed, they just can hear beyond the abilities of mortal man). Now, Horatio is keen on protecting the weak, so when that villainous scum comes a callin’ for their prey he enlists the help of Chester (Daryl Haney), his greaser-punk weapons

Blu-ray Review: Invaders of the Lost Gold (1982)
Picture it; the Philippines, 1945… a Japanese platoon, with voices so outlandishly dubbed that they border on the insane (everyone in this film suffers the same fate), are waylaid by an indigenous tribe that really isn’t into the idea of someone fucking around on their land… and by “waylaid” I mean “absolutely slaughtered via gore drenched violence” (this shit even features samurai swords versus primitive knives… it’s fucking cool as shit… ). Some Thirty-odd years later, fortune hunter Rex Larson (Edmund Purdom) is hot on the trail of the gold those aforementioned soldiers hid before they met their drizzly demise, but he finds most of the remaining soldiers a little uncooperative (one of them commits hari-kari in an absurdly over-the-top manner accompanied by a gong strike… you can’t even make this shit up cats n’ creeps… ). Soon Rex is joined by a rag-tag team of misfits who’s ranks include TV mainstay/Murder She Wrote regular Stuart Whitman, Spartacus‘ Woody Strode

Blu-ray Review: Blind Beast (1969)
Michio (Eiji Funakoshi) is your typical artist; he lives with his mother, is blind, and lives in a bizarre studio filled with a surreal tableau containing titanic sculptures devoted to the senses… and tits n’ ass… lord the gigantic tits n’ ass that studio-space contains… He’s also not above kidnapping a mother fucker outright if kids thinks she’s hot… That is exactly what he does to beautiful model Aki (Mako Midori), who is naturally really not that into it… and promptly attempts to escape, which you’d think would be easy given that her captor, I don’t know… can’t fucking see her and all… but, alas she fails… more than once… Before you can say Stockholm syndrome, Aki begins to really dig on the sadomasochistic shenanigans ol’ Michio is laying down… so much so that she begins to take things even further. Fondling of statue ass ensues. Comprised of a darkly sexual tone (while not being overly graphic… for the most

6 Favorite Students’ Horror Films
Many students like gathering with their peers to watch and discuss the latest horror movies. But have you ever thought why young people enjoy frightening scenes more than historical or dramatic films? Let’s try to figure it out!

Those who don’t imagine their lives without the regular adrenaline rush also tend to prefer horror movies to other genres. Sometimes, students choose horrors because they find them a great alternative to cliche films. Typically, horror movies have an unexpected beginning and extraordinary story.
