Intruder Review

-


Starring: Elizabeth Cox, Renee Estevez, Dan Hicks, David Byrnes, Sam Raimi, Ted Raimi, Euegene Robert Glazer, Billy Marti, Burr Steers, Craig Stark


Director: Scott Spiegel


The employees of a grocery store are having to stay overnight to get ready for their going-out-of-business sale, but someone is not about to let that happen as each employee is being brutally slaughtered one by one.

I first heard about this movie when I saw an episode of "The Incredibly Strange Film Show" featuring Sam Raimi. After the discussion about the "Evil Dead" movies, they went behind the scenes for a little known slasher called "Night Crew: The Final Checkout" (which officially became "Intruder" for distribution). 

The movie was directed by Scott Spiegel, which I had seen in the films "The Dead Next Door" and "Skinned Alive". I knew that he could act, but had no idea that he could direct too, which happily surprised me.

The gore scenes are definitely something to see. The VHS version is cut to shit, so I am glad that I avoided it and waited for the uncut version because those scenes are incredible, including the bandsaw and trash compactor scenes. This is what gore is supposed to look like, not that crappy fakeness that I keep seeing these days. Besides, if you want to see both Sam Raimi and Ted Raimi get brutally killed, then this is the movie for you.

"Intruder" is one badass slasher film from the 80's that every gorehound needs to check out.

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
