Marty Jenkins and the Vampire Bitches Review

-


Director: Henrique Couto

Cast: Shawn A. Green III, Michelle McLaughlin, Lisa Clarke, Henrique Couto, Plexi Starr, Amy Lynn Best, Nic Pesante, Andrew Shearer


Marty Jenkins and the Vampire Bitches is the long awaited film from Freak Productions' own, Henrique Couto and quite possibly the best vampire film that has been made since The Lost Boys. Ok, there are probably other ones after The Lost Boys, but I don't have the time to think of them all, so I'm sticking with what I'm saying.

I have been a fan of Henrique's work for over 2 years now and all of his movies have been a wild ride to watch and I mean that in an ever-so-loving way, so when I popped Marty Jenkins into my DVD player, I was thrown for a loop, as this film rocked my socks off and everything in between. I will explain more about that as I continue this review, but here's a little of what the plot is about.

Marty is a loveable loser, who has just been dumped by his very annoying girlfriend. With Marty being depressed, his friend Tyler tries to convince him to seek out a new girlfriend, but that's not what he really wants. Enter 3 sensuously, gothic-clad women, who just happens to be vampires. Things go from bad to worse as Marty is the only one left that can try to rid the town of these bloodsuckers.

Will Marty succed? And will he be able to move on and find the right girl? I guess you'll have to watch the flick and find out for yourself.

The one thing I always pay attention to when watching Henrique's films is the dialogue. He always comes up with some really great lines. However, I have never laughed so hard until I cried when I was listening to the lines that Andrew Shearer had to say in this film, he portayed Marty's father. I think his part was incredibly funny that he'll have you rolling around on the floor, seriously! I would love to see him act alot more, he has a natural ability for acting.

One of the best scenes, which was actually filmed in Pittsburgh, involves one of my favorite actresses, Amy Lynn Best. I know her from Happy Cloud Pictures, but it was so great to see her in one of Henrique's productions. Her performance was very funny and I loved the outfit that she wore, it fit right in with her scene. I hope that she'll be in more of his movies, I'd love to see that happen!

For the first time in a Henrique Couto film, this one actually has a little nudity thrown in to the story and it worked very well. When I first heard about this, I wasn't sure what to expect, but when I saw this particular scene, I thought it was both funny with a little bit on the erotic side. The scene was well done and I think alot of people, who has seen his other films, will be quite surprised, just like I was.

I was also blown away by the special effects in this film, they were so well made for the budget that this film was done on. I give a triple kudos all around!

On a final note, Marty Jenkins and the Vampire Bitches is one of the greatest vampire films to date with really great dialogue, excellent special effects and quite possibly one of the most well rounded casts I have seen.

I highly recommend this film!

Zombarella's House of Whorrors Review

Directed by: Tony Masiello and Tim Ritter Remember the good old days of USA Up All Night back in the 90's? Those were the best times and those great memories were brought back with Zombarella's House of Whorrors. Very beautiful and very busty Zombarella presents it's viewers with a SOV suck fest called Tales From the Mausoleum from director Fred Olen Wood. We are also presented with lots of commercials, trailers and 1-900 numbers to titilate your senses. First of all, I didn't know what I was in for when I started watching Zombarella's House of Whorrors, but from the very beginning I smiled the entire time. I remember staying up late night watching these kinda of programs including all those adult 1-900 numbers and this film made me extremely happy. Some of them were a bit ridiculous, but I had a lot of fun watching them. I think my favorites are 1-900-Get-Cream and 1-900-Date-A-Mate. I'd call them if I could. I loved all the trailers that are includ

Crowley Review

Starring: Simon Callow, Kal Weber, Lucy Kudden, Jud Charlton, Paul McDowell, John Shrapnel Director: Julian Doyle Originally titled Chemical Wedding, Crowley (the US title) tells the tale of Neo-Pagan Aleister Crowley, known as "The Wickedest Man in the World", who died in 1947. 50 years after his death, Cambridge scholar Professor Oliver Haddo enters a Virtual Reality Machine, but things go awry and he becomes possessed by the spirit of Crowley. Crowley proceeds to begin his occult practices all over again, in search for a "scarlet bride" to marry and increase his powers. I really didn't know what to expect, but this was one of the most kick ass movies I've seen in a long time. Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson co-wrote this little tale and I was surprised. I love Bruce Dickinson, but had no idea that he could write a movie such as this. Simon Callow, who portrayed Haddo/Crowley was amazing. He freaked me out in so many
