British director Guy Hamilton, mainly known for being at the helm for several James Bond films, went into the world of Agatha Christie with the 1980 film The Mirror Crack’d, a mystery featuring the famous sleuth Miss Marple.

The Cat and the Canary Blu-ray review
The Cat and the Canary is 1939 horror-comedy and was the first of a pair of tongue-in-cheek scary films that starred Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard. It is a remake of the 1927 silent film under the same title. The plot is the familiar ‘murder someone who has just inherited a fortune’ theme. Wealthy uncle…

Gary Graver was a cinematographer who in his career collaborated with the iconic Orson Welles in both television shows and movies. He was also a director of many adult films under the alias Robert McCallum. Indecent Exposure just released by Vinegar Syndrome is one of many X-rated films where he took the helm and we…
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…
Blu-ray Review – Arifureta : From Commonplace to World’s Strongest (Funimation)
I’m beginning to feel like I am trapped in a world of Xerox copies of Overlord. Every anime I watch people are getting trapped in fantasy worlds or video games, and most fight their way out, or save humanity. Some of these are good. Some of these are watchable, and I’m sort of wondering what…
Blu-ray Review – Grave Robbers (Vinegar Syndrome)
One of the weak points of my horror fandom is Mexican Horror. I saw a few of the DVD’s that Casa Negra put out a long ways back (too bad they didn’t last), and the early Mondo Macabro titles, but not much else beyond that. However, it seems that Vinegar Syndrome is helping to correct…
Blu-ray Review – Zombie 5 – Killing Birds (Vinegar Syndrome)
When I first got into Italian and European horror in the late 90’s, I began grabbing any and all titles I could. If It was Argento, Bava, Fulci, Deodato, Martino I felt I was in good hands. As I began to wade deeper into the unknown Euro-waters I began to hit proverbial landmines. One of…
Blu-ray Review Dr. Who and the Daleks/Daleks’ – Invasion Earth 2150 A.D. (Kino Lorber)
Anyone who has read this site with any frequency over the last decade should know that aside from the European cult and horror films that gives this site its name, my other obsession is Doctor Who. Most notably the classic run of the show that ran from 1963-1989. I’ve seen every existing episode of Doctor…
