Basic Slaughter Review

-


A mysterious person, dressed from head to toe in all black and wielding a machete has come to the town of Rotary, Pennsylvania with one thing in mind....butcher as many people as this person comes in contact with.

Why is this person killing? Will anybody survive? Will anyone care? Probably not because after all, it is just BASIC SLAUGHTER!

Basic Slaughter is the latest film from writer/director Steve Rudzinski, who is known for his films....Legends and Wolfster. What's so different from these films? Basic Slaughter is not meant to be comedic in any shape or form. This is a pretty straight forward slasher film with some funny moments and a high body count.

I was quite surprised with Steve's first effort at making a slasher film. Sure, a majority of the characters were annoying, but when they get butchered in various ways, you don't really care about them...you just want to cheer for the killer.

I did think that it was really cool that A Nightmare on Elm Street was mentioned a few times, plus the scene with Steve doing his karate reminded me of Nightmare on Elm Street 4 (the character of Rick doing the same stuff), although I'm not sure if that what he meant to do.

I feel the only drawback was that some scenes seemed to drag on a bit, but I guess we had to get a feel of the characters, although I thought it was a bit much at times.

In my opinion, slashers are the greatest form of entertainment in the horror genre and I think Basic Slaughter fits right in there, and I really hope that there might be a sequel in the future. Just an idea!

Check out Basic Slaughter, if you dare!

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
