The Curse of the Screaming Dead – Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
A bunch of longhairs go on a hunting party from hell, arguing over petty nonsense and incurring the wrath of some undead Civil War zombies. The Curse of the Screaming Dead (1982) is one of the single most annoying films I’ve sat through in quite a long time. The story is disjointed and tedious, and…
Killer Condom – 4K Ultra HD/Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
If you haven’t seen Killer Condom before, you should skip my paragraph of plot description because my enjoyment of the film was greatly increased by going in as cold and limp as possible. Detective Luigi Mackeroni (Udo Samel) is known for two things on the filthy and naughty streets of New York City: his big…
Evil Judgement – Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
Waitress/dancer Janet (Pamela Collyer) is dating a world class cheesefart of a man named Dino (Jack Langedijk).

Dracula then commands Irving to bring him some lovely ladies so…
Vacation of Terror 1 & 2 – Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
In Vacation of Terror (1989), a bunch of sepia-toned villagers tie a witch to a tree and give her plenty of time to curse everyone before they imprison her soul in a doll and throw it down a well. Also, they set the witch on fire. Flash forward to the greatest decade that ever was…
Arnold – Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
Karen (Stella Stevens) is beside herself with joy. It’s her wedding day and she’s finally going from being the mistress of Lord Arnold Dwellyn to being his wife. There’s just one tiny problem: Arnold is frickin’ dead. Zany! How the cost-cutting trend of pairing both your funeral and wedding on the same day never caught…
Night Screams – 4K Ultra HD / Blu-ray Review (Vinegar Syndrome)
After winning the big game, the football team and their cheerleading ladies are ready to party!

El bosque del lobo (1970) tells the tale of Benito the peddler (played by José Luis López Vázquez), an outwardly good-natured fellow who travels from village to village, selling his wares and acting as a guide to fellow travelers. What no one suspects is that Benito is a madman who, for reasons unknown even to…
