Movie Review: The Zombie Army (1991)

The Zombie Army begins the only way it could; with a maniac undergoing a radical classroom-based therapy sesh before being chucked back into the loony bin… which is immediately shut down by the government. While most of the patients and staff are moved to a new facility, the soldiers occupying the facility soon discover (thanks to some weed smokin’ grunts opening a top security room) that the most dangerous inmates now roam the halls and begin their mad murder spree… while also creating an army of zombies. Based on a true story… The Zombie Army is a prime slice of S.O.V. (shot on video for you novices out there) ghoulish goodness that truly displays a sense of “let’s put on a show no matter our skill level” aesthetic that is impossible to resist. This is the horror biz created by those that love it best; those that become so inspired by fright flicks that they simply pick up the family

Blu-ray Review: Henrique Couto’s Backyard Legacy (2018)

Before I begin this revoltin’ review let me state that Henrique Couto is both a pal and a co-conspirator in the horror picture-makin’ biz…therefore this is going to be a bit more of a “why I think this release is worth your while” than a blow by blow technical breakdown of the monstrous minute or some such shit; anyway… Henrique Couto, simply put, is one of the hardest workin’ dudes in the horror biz today; don’t believe me, just feast your putrid peepers on his Imdb…I’ll wait…for shit’s sake where have you been?!! What not content with just checkin’ out that page you surfed on over to Brazzers or something? Anyway, yeah ol’ Uncle Henny has been a busy lil’ beaver that’s for sure, but he didn’t get to make his monstrous masterpieces before putting in his dues…and that’s where this Blu-ray comes in! Comprised of an arcane ass-load (that’s like waaay over six hours for you non-scientific folks) of

DVD Review: The Violence Movie (1988)

A deranged, shades sportin’, killer (David Wilkinson) on the lam walks right on into the home of a teen named Joey (Joseph Shaughnessy) like the mother fuckin’ cool breeze he is. While there he dons a Freddy Kruger mask and waits for J-man to get home…which when said event occurs leads to a full on WWE style brawl that nothing can stop (the sound effects alone are worth whatever you pay for this DVD)…not even the arrival of Joey’s friend (How do we know he’s our hero’s friend? Why he announces “Hey Joe, it’s me your best friend!” before he gets his throat slashed). Will Joey survive this epic confrontation? (Actually this shit is going to be spoiled for you in like another paragraph or so, so you have been warned) Running a stately 14 minutes, The Violence Movie is a bargain basement gore packed de-fuckin’-light! It’s shot right on a VHS camcorder, and is nothing more than some slasher
