Movie Review: Psycho Goreman (2020)

Everyone has been flappin’ their lascivious lips about what a great dive into the ol’ (decidedly comedic) horror biz Psycho Goreman is, so I had to set my eerie eyeballs upon it and give it the once over as only yours cruelly can… for better or for worse, your mileage may vary! After assing around in the backyard, siblings Mimi (Nita-Josee Hanna) and Luke (Owen Myre) unearth a strange jewel that is, in fact, a control module for an intergalactic murder machine (also buried in the backyard). That’s when the ultimate evil in the galaxy, newly christened Psycho Goreman (Matthew Ninaber with vocal duties provided by Steven Vlahos), falls under the control of a bossy weirdo girl from the ‘burbs. What follows is a wicked whirlwind of insanely over-the-top violent mayhem as ‘ol PG has to deal with both the children that are making his life a living hell, as well as every intergalactic shit-kicker that beams down to terra

Legendary Comics Unveils Cover For Issues 1 Of New ‘The Heart Hunter’

To celebrate love and Valentine’s Day, Legendary Comics has unveiled the cover for the new graphic novel The Heart Hunter from writer Mickey George and artist V. Gagnon. The Heart Hunter is set on the cursed island of Envecor, where everyone is doomed to wear their heart outside their body and are immortal—unable to die, to change, to have children — until they find their soul mate. Paired soul mates are then turned mortal, freed from the curse, and able to leave. But all fairy tales have a dark side: those who don’t want to lose their immortality pay “Heart Hunters” to find their soul mates and kill them so they may remain immortal. Psyche, a Heart Hunter, is hired by the king to kill his soulmate. As she sets out on her quest, she begins her own journey of mending her broken heart and learning to trust again. Edited by Legendary Comics’ Nikita Kannekanti, the new comic is one

Ultra Controversial Film ’29 Needles’ Available For Pre-Order From Unearthed Films

Unearthed Films has announced the latest addition to its “Too Extreme for Mainstream Line” (TEFM) collection, 29 Needles, which is now available on Blu-ray and DVD pre-order, but only 30 copies are available at this time. Exploring such topics as sadism, masochism, and one man’s ready descent into his personal hell, 29 Needles has all of the brutal nastiness you’d expect from a TEFM title, with subversive and beautiful, yet truly disturbing scenes. In the film, Francis (Brooke Berry) uses pain to hold back his inner demons, but when this no longer works, his obsessions for pain and sex lead him into new territory. Scott Philip Goergens, director, gallery owner, and artist had this to say, “My work is meant to challenge. To push the boundaries of what is conventionally comfortable and “normal”. 29 NEEDLES is meant to highlight aspects of the human condition in ways that evoke tones of anxiety, perversion, fear, and the things we do in our

Movie Review: Curse of the Blind Dead (2020)

Back in the darkest of Dark Ages, a gaggle of Knights Templar oversee a gnarly birth and attempt to perform one of those morally dicey post-partum abortions… but the local pitchfork toting mob but the kibosh on the lady, the baby, and finally the knights themselves via a good ol’ burning at the stake (after blinding them of course… that’ll be important later if the title of this fright flick didn’t clue ya in)! Flash forward to a rather rugged post-apocalyptic future, and the misadventures of Michael (Aaron Stielstra) and his preggo kid, Lily (Alice Zanini), whom after having their asses saved from some deep woods banditos, find themselves balls deep in the commune of a religious cult. Speaking of said cult; their leaders Kain (Micky Ray Martin) and Abel (Bill Hutchens) are hellbent in reenacting that monstrous monkey biz mentioned up yonder and they need Lily’s lil’ bun in the oven to bring those blind-as-a-bat terror Templars back to

Movie Review: Willy’s Wonderland Is A Fun Filled Bad@ss Flick

I’ve been eagerly waiting to get my hands on a copy of the animatronic horror Willy’s Wonderland from writer G.O. Parsons (interview) and director Kevin Lewis. Tonight, I finally did, and let me say, I was not disappointed. In the movie, Nicolas Cage stars as a quiet drifter tricked into a janitorial job at the now condemned Willy’s Wonderland, a twisted version of Chucky Cheese. The mundane tasks suddenly become an all-out fight for survival against wave after wave of demonic animatronics. Right off to bat, we meet Cage’s character after he flattens the tires of his badass car on a spike strip. Wild-eyed, pissed of, and silent, Cage makes an agreement to clean Willy’s Wonderland in exchange for getting his car fixed. But it doesn’t take long for the action to kick-off and for Cage to turn into a complete badass as he faces off against the animatronics one by one. You see, the reality is, “he’s not locked
