Here’s my spoiler free review of EVIL DEAD BURN, a film I think makes it even more clear, fans (or maybe it just me?) miss the old school EVIL DEAD. We’re gonna talk why I think the film sort sucks and how to get back to the original tone of the classics once again on the big screen. Evil Dead Burn misses the mark-let’s make the franchise a fun, gory & exciting time at the theater once again! What did YOU think? Am I just a nostalgic jerk or does this franchise need it’s old charm back?!

Here’s a favorite from the 1980’s video store rental days! Denzel Washington’s long forgotten murder mystery thriller straight out of Jamaica-THE MIGHTY QUINN! This here’s for all those 1980s fanatics looking to turn the heat up this summer with something a little bit different, lets talk bad movie accents, reggae music and Hitchcockian island adventure!

Today we’re going deep into the wilderness with Portland’s own cult cinema legends Wyrd War! Yes I’m talking about the Silver Falls Sleepover Slaughter where we stayed at the exact location where the 1981 iconic slasher flick JUST BEFORE DAWN was filmed! Then we watched 1976’s SQUIRM and to make things even more interesting we viewed these two classics with the director Jeff Lieberman, who was in attendance as well!! Today we talk all about it in a real life cinematic survival double feature!

Today we’re talking about a horror sequel to the 1980s slasher classic Prom Night, a sequel only in name- PROM NIGHT 2: Hello Mary Lou! A rare occasion where a sequel easily outshines the original, this one’s pure 80s gold-full of inventive fx and a unique storyline that puts this unsung horror cult classic in a league of it’s own!

Peter Jackson claims there’s a new film lurking in the same universe as 1992’s DEAD ALIVE aka BRAIN DEAD! Yeah, the big time Hollywood & former iconic cult film director’s apparently gonna get gory again it seems-BUT can he deliver the splatter like he did when he was a young buck or will he just resort to a bunch of bad CGI hobbit blood? Let’s discuss!!

Are they going to remake A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET once again?! All signs point to yes because they claim Robert Englund is too old! However I think he’s got plenty of Freddy left in him, the real problem is Hollywood is obsessed with nostalgia and the big MONEY they think they can milk from it. Today I’ll tell those posers how to make a real sequel to the iconic horror franchise without being intellectually bankrupt and bringing something fresh and new to the table while keep Robert Englund in the mix!

Today talk all things about dragons and just why Dragonslayer’s Vermithrax is the BEST dragon ever put to film! I checked it out on blu-ray after decades and it HOLDS up. So much so that it makes a mockery of all the CGI dragons Hollywood has churned out over the years! This classic fantasy film has aged like fine wine and if you’re a fantasy flick fanatic don’t sleep on watching this gem!

Today I’m talkin’ all things HE-MAN and the Masters of the Universe! As a LEGIT 80’s kid who was obsessed with the toys and the TV show I’m giving you the “no BS” talk about the franchise and where it’s at today! Can this new film top the 80’s version?! Does 2026 HE-MAN need steroids?! So many debates to be had by hardcore He-man fans!!

Today I’m covering the barely ever talked about totally bonkers horror of DANGEROUS SEDUCTRESS from 1992! A film so sexy, so sultry and so scary that macho men from all over the world will think twice before harassing or even hitting on a woman again! One of the wildest horror films all the way from Indonesia from the director of LADY TERMINATOR desperately needs a HUGE cult following and a fancy ass new blu ray! Have YOU seen it?! I highly DOUBT IT!

A totally forgotten action thriller with an unhinged plot and over the top idiotic characters a plenty make this under seen 1980s gem a must see for bizarro movie fanatics. With a stacked cast of B-level action heroes of yesteryear and cult icons like PJ Soles and Clint Howard, B.O.R.N. will melt your mind and slightly lower your IQ with every watch! I plead my case why a boutique blu ray label needs to snap this oddity up and expose it to a new legion of cinemaniacs!
