Movie Review: Inheritance (2017)

It’s a banner day for ol’ Ryan (Chase Joliet); he’s just out sawing some wood (as one does) when a man informs him he has inherited a house from his biological father…a dude he thought bit the big one multiple years ago. Before long Ryan, with his pregnant fiance in tow, heads out to the bucolic coastal town and takes up residence in the spacious abode. Once there, R-man begins a slow slide down the slippery slope of going batshit insane as he begins to unravel his family’s dark history and the blight upon the land on which the mansion sits. Packed with equal parts family drama and slow burn horror, Inheritance (the debut feature for Director Tyler Savage) is a well paced decent into madness and implied supernatural shenanigans. While the story is definitely filled with well worn fright flick tropes (the inheritance of a “haunted house”, dark family secrets, ghostly hallucinations…hell even that hoary ol’ chestnut the “Indian

Human Centipede Director Back With New Vile Film ‘The Onania Club’

Human Centipede may one of the most stomach-churning franchises ever made, but it sounds like it may have some competition. Director Tom Six (pictured below) has shared new details about his next project, The Onania Club, described as “inhumane”. While the plot is being kept under wraps, he has promised that the psychological thriller features “mostly strong female characters” and will “definitely pass the Bechdel test with flying colors.” Set in Hollywood, the film is said to be “one of the most vile, inhumane movie experiences of all time.” That’s saying a lot coming from the man who built a franchise about people having their mouths sewn to other people’s butts. The film stars Jessica Morris, Deborah Twiss, Darcy DeMoss, Flo Lawrence, and Karen Strassman, according to Indiewire. The first poster teases that sex will be a big party of the movie, after all, the tagline is “Come and see, see and come.” But Six is not new to controversy.
