  • The Worst Movie ever made and released. Period.

    I was looking on Youtube for some footage from probably the worst movie I have ever seen ever- “The Black Devil Doll From Hell”! It has been many years since I have seen this steaming pile of suck and from what I understand it’s pretty hard to find a copy now days. I heard about…

  • Finally a recent Fantasy movie that didn’t suck!

    Just the other evening I took a gamble on renting a new movie called “Wolf Hound”. On the cover it said “Conan the Barbarian meets Lord of The Rings” and with nothing else that looked vaguely interesting I decided to reluctantly beleive what the cover was telling me. Now I’ve taken many chances on recent fantasy movies and been let…

  • Dancing Demons and Death Metal, A Match Made in Hell!

    Nothing tops the sweet sounds of a good heart jolting death metal tune, and it is hard to beat awesome b-horror movie action. So why not combine the two into what should be the ultimate culmination of sight and sound. I guess that is my ideal experience. Not sure if there are any dorks out…

  • Do we really know what a “dork” is?!!

    A friend of mine recently let me on to some interesting facts about the word “dork”. Apparently it has a few different meanings and hearing about this made me extremely interested in the words origins- especially because this site is named after the word! First off I learned that apparently there’s a difference between a dork and a…

  • You can look to the Galaxy, or Within, for some Terror!

    Fellow Universal Dork Pete Saturday posted an awesome review and reminder of the classic Creepozoids and I responded with a note about two other plot/theme related classics, The Terror Within and Galaxy of Terror. After some serious thought and internal reflection on my actions…I realize that it is pretty lame to just hang the carrot…

  • Pandorum: A Creature Flick I can get behind!

    I am pretty pumped about the upcoming sci-fi horror movie entitled “Pandorum” out Sept. 25th. I love a good sci-fi movie but what I love more is a cool ass monster! So far from this newly released clip of the monster in that movie it looks pretty promising. Not being a fan of CG monsters (sorry…

  • Silver and Swamp Thing in 3D, Just Rumors?

    This dork recently learned that Joel Silver is considering a remake of Swamp Thing…yeah, in 3D. At first I threw up my arms and yelled “No! Not Joel Silver!” But then I sat back and reviewed his list of contributions over the years. After my meditation time with the list I realize there were a…

  • So was that the Chupacabra??

    I was delighted to see when I sat down at my computer tonight that the legendary Chupacabra may have been captured!! I just watched the CNN video and while it’s not quite what I was expecting it’s a pretty weird looking animal. Most likely it is some sort of  hairless coyote or freaky mutated dog. I…

  • What’s next?…Robot Fornication?!?!??

    I just can’t get over this. We have this level of robotics and technology and those funny guys at the Taiwan University of Science and Technology just make them kiss. I realize that the dudes that pulled this technology together have more brains in one pinky that I do in my whole body. But as…

  • CG Animated Horror Movies-A good idea?

    I just ran across this trailer for a possibly upcoming movie called “Blood Trail”. It’s a CG animated trailer for the proposed horror film and so far I can’t decide whether or not this totally cool or really lame. I guess it reminds me a bit of the most recent “Beowolf” animated movie. I watched that as well…
