The Wizard Of Gore (1970) – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror (2018) – Day 10

October 10, 2018 by Scott Leave a Comment

A master illusionist performs to a crowds of two dozen people, at most. His act first off with generic parlour tricks and ends with is performing an act of torture on a female volunteer from the audience. This is not good movie. I wanted to like it because I am a fan of Herschell Gordon Lewis, the aptly nicknamed the Godfather of Gore. Crude special effects and cutaways of bloody meat are sewn together to try and make an interesting story. The film is very repetitive. There's a stage … [Read more...]

Wedding Crashers – Quickie Review

November 7, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

This is Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn at the top of their comedic game. This is a very funny movie: funny lines and funny situations. The supporting is just as strong as the leads including a great cameo from Will Ferrell. It's probably about 20 minutes too long, but it's a whole lotta fun. Raunchy and energetic. … [Read more...]

Witchboard – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 31 / Film #1

October 31, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

A woman becomes obsessed with a Ouija board. That's it. That's the movie. And it's boring as whale shit. I hate Ouija movies that can't even pull off the movement of the planchette without it looking really obvious that the actors are pushing it. … [Read more...]

We Are Still Here – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 16 / Film #3

October 16, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

A grieving couple move to the countryside following the death of their son and soon find out that their new house and the town is full of secrets. For a movie with such a short running time, it certainly takes its sweet-ass time to get going, but it's well worth the wait. Unique evil spirits, a well-layered script and an awful lot of blood. An indie-horror gem. … [Read more...]

Wolf Man, The (1941) – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 8 / Film #1

October 8, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

Incredibly fresh at the time when you consider that the writer came up with a lot of the werewolf folklore that we still follow today and the fact that a character actually has to ask, "What's a werewolf?" Wonderfully complex and sympathetic performance by Lon Chaney. I liked that Randolph Duke was in the movie. Congrats to those whom get the reference. … [Read more...]

Would You Rather – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 7 / Film #2

October 7, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

People hard on their luck are invited to a dinner party which turns out to be a deadly competition of Would You Rather. Clever little flick with a very eclectic cast which includes an Oscar nominee, a Barden Bella, a Trailer Park Boy, a TV super-villain, a porn star and cult horror legend, Jeffrey Combs. Interesting premise, twist filled script and a lot better than I was expecting. A pleasant surprise. … [Read more...]

Willow Creek – Quickie Review: 31 Nights Of Horror – Day 2 / Film #4

October 2, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

Effective found footage horror film in the vein of The Blair Witch Project just replace Witch with Bigfoot. Similar to BWP, it takes a while to get going, but once it does, the tension is ever present. The suspense is effortlessly built with just the use of sound effects and speculation. Though not original, one of the better FF movies in recent memory. … [Read more...]

What We Do In The Shadows – Quickie Reviews

September 18, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

Clever mockumentary about aged vampires sharing a flat in New Zealand while trying to live day to day in today's world. Effortlessly charming and brutally funny movie sprinkled with comically over the top bloodshed. Very entertaining. … [Read more...]

Without Warning – Quickie Review

September 15, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

Low budget horror/sci-fi film starring future Oscar winners Jack Palance and Martin Landau as well as the very young, ginger-haired David Caruso. Predates Predator by 7 years in the Aliens Hunting Humans For Sport On Earth genre. The effects range from cheesy to graphic; the dialogue ranges from cheesy to extreme cheese. Palance and Landau ham it up the best they can. Silly fun, not much more. … [Read more...]

Wolf Creek – Quickie Review

September 9, 2015 by Scott Leave a Comment

Early entry in the torture porn genre. More build up and introductory story than most others of the same ilk. Inspired by true events. The film boasts solid gore and an out and out bad-ass villain. … [Read more...]
