Dylan - DARKNESS was actually shot on Super-8mm film (the choice of champs!). The reason it has such an odd video look was Jonker's transferring it to videotape by means of projecting the Super-8 film on white cardboard and videotaping it. Not exactly the most professional way to do it, but hey...wh...

Hey 138! By the Power of Crom, Urbano Barberini will charge your home on his trusty Kawasaki dirt bike, samurai sword in hand. No, that's only a joke...but you mean to tell me you REALLY didn't like DEMONS? That movie's a fucking masterpiece! ------------------ "Pat yourself on the back and be ...

LT, you just gotta see that new Michael Jackson longform video, "Ghosts." Not only is it stupid as all hell, but it's nothing more than MJ trying to shed off those nasty child molestation charges. Imagine if you will...Parents charging the MJ Manor, with cries of "You know what he did...

Shawn, well-said. Both of the EXTERMINATOR movies kicked major ass, and are really great in a nasty kind of way. The bit with the white dude on the subway tracks was creepy as hell. Bow down to John Eastland! ------------------ "Pat yourself on the back and be sure to let your board buddies kno...

"The GEEK. An American tradition." I'll second that nod for good ol' LUTHER. Too bad it doesn't get any recognition...in its' own slapdash way, it's one of the best regional weirdo horror flicks since the first Texas Chainsaw. If you like the stalk-n-slash, pick up Abe Ferrara's DRILLER KI...

Okay, kids...I'm gonna hate to admit this, but I picked up SEASONS OF THE DEAD and READY FOR DEATH at the record store 3 months back and found myself really enjoying them. Pretty decent for mid-80's death metal, but certainly not something that deserved a comeback. As for Killjoy, I agree...he is a ...
