Movie Review: Red River Road (A Night of Horror International Film Festival)

Red River Road (2020) depicts a family becoming increasingly fractured as the effects of a lockdown because of an epidemic take their toll. This is no biologically spread epidemic, though, and the truth behind whether it really exists or not is also challenged, leading to dissension among family members. Red River Road was made entirely during COVID-19 lockdown by writer/director Paul Schuyler, with his family acting as cast and crew. Father Stephen (Schuyler), his wife Anna (Jade Schuyler), and their teenage sons Wyatt (Quinn Schuyler) and Sean (Shaw Schuyler) have moved from Boston to their rural summer home to avoid contact with other people as much as possible during the lockdown for an epidemic that is spread through online contact, and which makes people go insane before killing them. Random assortments of groceries and other necessities are delivered daily, apparently by a government agency, with requests taken over landline phones. People find it physically impossible to leave their immediate residence

Ancient Egypt is Booming in the Online Casino Industry – It’s The Perfect Time for a New Horror Film Based on the Period

There have been countless films set in ancient Egypt over the years, and one of the best of all time was in the horror genre. Karl Freund’s The Mummy in 1932 is considered a classic of the genre, but there haven’t been a great many other frightening flicks set in Egypt in the years since. With Egypt now being a popular theme in other areas of entertainment, such as the online casino industry, it could be the perfect time for horror directors to revisit the period and come up with a new offering. Ancient Egypt Could be the Number One Slot Theme In the world of slots, one of the striking things is the abundance of choice when it comes to genres. Players can choose between games bases on sports, films, or television shows. There are also numerous offerings that borrow themes from ancient cultures.

Blu-ray Review: Cold War Creatures: Four Films from Sam Katzman (1955 – 1957)

Producer Sam Katzman was responsible for a stunning array of poverty-row shockers, and this new box set from Arrow Video (along with MVD Entertainment) brings forth the creepy cream of the crop! Without further arcane ado, let’s dip out terror toes in this putrid pond, shall we? First comes Creature with the Atom Brain (1955): Gangsters are being found tits up, with radioactive dead man’s fingerprints found all over the scene, so the police are baffled. How is this a thing? Well, exiled gangster Frank Buchanan (Michael Granger) hooks up with Wilhelm Steigg (Gregory Gaye), a Nazi mad scientist who is trying to create a new mindless work force created from the bodies of the dead. Frank likes the sound of that shit, believe you me, and before long him and Dr. Feelbad are back in the States and putting a murder on each and every gangster that has ever crossed Buchanan… wait, why are the police angry this dude

Blu-ray Review: Weird Wisconsin: The Bill Rebane Collection (1965 – 1988)

Bill Rebane; that Wisconsin bred mother fucker of a regional schlock-meister… I love him, and I wager after you park your ass in front of this rich motherload of drive-in awesome-fuckery flyin’ your way from Arrow Video (along with MVD Entertainment) you will too! Kicking off the collection is 1965’s cobbled together mess-terpiece, Monster a Go-Go: A space capsule (pronounced here as cap-soool, which was too much for me) tumbles back to Earth and the astronaut inside goes missing. Coincidentally, a ten foot tall, radiation scarred mutant begins wandering about, just waiting to put the gruesome murder biz upon anyone that stands in his way of… well, wandering around killing people mostly… In a flash of cinematic Frankenstein frenzy, the Godfather of Gore himself; Herschell Gordon Lewis acquired the footage to an unfinished Rebane picture from 1961, added some new footage and narration (provided by H.G. Lewis himself), and released the jarring results to horror hounds everywhere back in ’65!
