Flatliners (1990 film) UHD review
“Today is a good day to die” is the infamous quote in the opening moments said by star Kiefer Sutherland for the 1990 Joel Schumacher psychological horror film known as Flatliners! Yes, this film is about people who decide to play with their own lives, potentially killing themselves! The story is about five medical students…
UHD Review – Dog Soldiers – Scream Factory
Dog Soldiers is one of the finest werewolf films of the 21st Century, and to be honest could easily squeeze into the pantheon of all time genre best as far as werewolf films are concerned. The werewolf as a cinematic monster is so drastically under utilized unlike it’s cinematic counterparts zombies and vampires, that when…
UHD Review – Cat People – Scream Factory
It will seem that in the last decade we have been in the midst of a remake/reboot trend that simply will not stop. The remakes of our current period are less from visionary directors with a new angle of an established classic, and more about using the title of an established classic as a profit…

UHD Review – God Told Me To… Kill – Blue Underground

The movie is based on Edna Ferber’s novel under the same name and features a wealth of great legendary, iconic actors including Elizabeth…
UHD Review – Flesh Eater – Vinegar Syndrome
FLESH EATER is a movie that shouldn’t be nearly as enjoyable as the final product ended up being. You cannot blame Bill Hinzman for cashing in his claim to fame as the cemetery zombie in George A. Romero’s seminal classic NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD. Hinzman doesn’t just coast on those zombie laurels either, in…
UHD Review – Uncle Sam – Blue Underground
The first time I saw Uncle Sam was during the 90’s slasher revival. It has not been that long, so I’m sure a good many of you remember this. A little flick from Wes Craven called Scream hit theaters in 1996, and was so wildly popular that slasher films became trendy for the first time…
