Blu-ray Review – Undefeated Bahamut Chronicles – Complete Series – Sentai Filmworks

OK, so I’ll start this off with some weirdness. I feel like I reviewed Undefeated Bahaumut Chronicle sometime in 2017. Now the original version of the site was torn down back in May, so I could make something easier to update, and mobile friendly, but I still have the records, but nope, not there. Anyway,…


Blu-ray Review – Patrick Still Lives (Severin Films)

About 10 years ago I received a book called “Italian Horror” by Jim Harper, at the time there was not a lot of books on this regional division of horror, and so I was happy to have anything related to spaghetti splatter on my bookshelf.Until I got this. Harper’s book covered the years 1978 to…


Blu-ray Review – Rest in Pieces (Vinegar Syndrome)

I have been writing for about 2-3 years now about the resurgence of Jose Larraz on home video. I thought it was great when we got Symptoms on Blu-ray at long last, but then we got a bunch of films from Arrow, and now Rest in Pieces from Vinegar Syndrome. It’s crazy to think that…


Blu-ray Review – Mallrats – Arrow Video

Mallrats is interesting. I hate to say this is one of those films that drove me to becoming the film nerd I am. The first director’s I fell for were John Carpenter and George Romero, but then years later a friend’s Mom recommended to my Mother of all people to see Clerks, so she did.She…


Blu-ray Review – Cemetery of Terror – Vinegar Syndrome

If you look up into the EuroCultAV banner, you’ll see Hugo Stiglitz. That’s not just any Hugo Stiglitz, that is Hugo Stiglitz from this film Cemetery of Terror, so needless to say when this month’s Vinegar Syndrome pile came in the mail, this film went straight to the top. The films of Rubén Galindo Jr.,…


UHD Review – Daughters of Darkness – Blue Underground

  Daughters of Darkness is one of many lesbian vampire films from the early 70’s. It is also one of the best films of that particular sub-genre. Daughters of Darkness, unlike other films of the era, takes a less cliched approach to vampire mythology, and as such has more in common with a film such…


Tabletop Review – Dungeons and Dragons – Curse of Strahd Revamped – (Wizards of the Coast)

When I was younger and just getting into D&D (2E), the Ravenloft Campaign setting was one of my first obsessions in the game. Being a horror-obsessed person , the Domain of Dread’s gothic horror vibe drew me in from the moment, I saw Strahd on the cover of that fog covered box set, and from…


Tabletop Review – Dungeons & Dragons – Icewind Dale – Rime of the Frostmaiden

As soon as I saw the cover image of the Frostmaiden and the outreached hand coupled with the description of Icewind Dale – Rime of the Frostmaiden, I knew this D&D module would grab my interest right away. I’ve always loved the atmosphere of winter, and the horror of the tundra, and the promotional imagery…


Blu-ray Review – Memorial Valley Massacre (Vinegar Syndrome)

I have recently in the last 2-3 years experience a rebirth in my love for slasher films. As a kid it seemed like horror was basically ALL slasher films, and so once I started finding weirder, wilder, and more violent thing I started kind of pushing against them. Now, I sort of kind of embrace…


Blu-ray Review – Sometimes Aunt Martha Does Dreadful Things (AGFA)

I grew up in South Florida, and I knew that at some time before I lived there horror movies were made in the area Mostly stuff like Children Shouldn’t Play with Dead Things (a classic), and later on some of H.G. Lewis’ more notorious films. As it turns out, quite a few camp horror classics…
