Blu-ray Review – Sukkubus – Mondo Macabro

Three herdsmen, two grown men and a teenage boy, are up in the mountains tending to their cows and making cheese.

Blu-ray Review – Walker – Criterion

Walker, and I will be completely upfront in the review about this, is arguably Alex Cox’s best film. I have probably watched Repo Man more than this for sheer enjoyment factor (and I’d say both are masterpieces in their own right). But Walker seems to be the film where everything came together for Cox as…


Blu-ray Review – Rogue Cops and Racketeers- Two Crime Thrillers by Enzo G. Castellari

I was what I thought a huge fan of EuroCult and Eurohorror back in 2008, and yet I had not yet seen any films by Enzo G. Castellari, that changed when seemingly overnight Redemption issued Cold Eyes of Fear on DVD, and Severin did Blu-ray’s of The Inglorious Bastards, and Eagles Over London. Soon after…

The latest Dungeons and Dragons book is Critlcal Role – Rise of the Netherdeep, the second in the line of Critical Role branded books for D&D 5th edition after the Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount. I have to admit I didn’t really have an interest in this book, as I don’t watch much critical role except…

Thriller: A Cruel Picture [Synapse Blu-ray] Review

Oh boy! It’s the controversial film that keeps on giving controversy! Synapse gives us (or at least some of us who were able to get it before it was pulled from sale) a blu-ray release of the shocking Swedish grindhouse “classic” Thriller: A Cruel Picture (also known as They Call Her One Eye).
