The Last Call Review

-

Cast: Terry Alexander, Dee Imbert, Elizabeth Piper S, Geoff Lerer, David Morwick, Marcus Slabine, Lori Cardille

Director: Marcus Slabine

What was supposed to be his last day at WORX, Radio DJ Harry Cunningham takes a mysterious call online that tries to force him to reveal a dark secret from the past. However, when he refuses, bodies start piling up and Harry's last day could really be his last forever.

I have known Marcus for many years, ever since he had his own movie review site. I was really disappointed when he had to shut down his website for good. He had such an incredible knowledge for films, so when I found out that he was venturing into his own brand of movie making, I was so excited.

THE LAST CALL is his first film and I thought it was so good. It only runs 17 minutes, but it gets down to business and that's what I love.

I was so happy to learn that Terry Alexander was starring in this little film. If you are a George Romero fan, then you will know him from the classic, DAY OF THE DEAD, which happens to be my absolute favorite of all the Romero flicks. He did an amazing job.

I really thought everyone did such an amazing job and I hope I see more from them. Plus you get a real treat as Lori Cardille had a small cameo. I don't want to ruin that for anyone.

As I was watching THE LAST CALL, I kept getting reminded of another film, URBAN LEGEND, Just some scenes that had that kinda feel to it. It was probably both the setting and the killer and that was great.

This movie does have blood, but it's not overly gory and that's fine. It's just not needed all the time and that's coming from someone that relies on gore, like me.

Now, Marcus needs to tackle a feature length film because he can do so much more and I would be first in line for sure. He is an amazing filmmaker.

Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of THE LAST CALL on Blu-ray once they are finally available for purchase.

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
