The Greatest KILLER Scarecrow Flick of ALL Time!!
I have to give some major props to the BEST imo EVIL killer scarecrow film of all time, NIGHT OF THE SCARECROW (1995)! This ambitious supernatural slasher really goes the gory distance with its ridiculous characters, top notch special fx & super well done gore. I also have to talk about SCARECROWS (1988) which is also one of the best of the genre, even though some people find it underwhelming and dull-I think it’s a total banger What do you think is the best killer scarecrow flick? Let me know!
Craziest Horror Movie Plot of ALL time: THE JOHNSONS (1992) is a Bizarre Family Affair!

This totally bonkers Dutch horror flick has one of the most convoluted over the top plots of ANY horror film to date! A true forgotten bizarre gem that’s just begging for a sweet blu ray release jam packed with colorful characters, cool fx, piles of garbage, seven killer test tube babies and “menstrual horror” served up only the the way the Dutch can cook it all up!

Today we cover one the coolest 1980s Aussie films around that deserves WAY more praise here in the the USA! Yeah- the relatively forgotten genre mash up, FORTRESS from 1985, hits ALL the right beats and features the beautiful Rachel Ward in one of the her finest roles. Part action, part adventure, part kids in danger “Amblin” style & part horror film, this one’s filled with twists and turns & features one of my favorite shocker endings of 1980s cult cinema! Trapped on VHS and just waiting to be cleaned up for fancy ass blu ray-we’re going to the “land down under” to talk about it all today!

The most bizarre genre mash up of all time comes straight out of Hong Kong where we see Lam Ching Ying AKA “Mr. Vampire” embark on one of his wildest adventures of his whole damn career as an ass kicking ghostbuster!

One of my favorite Hong Kong horror comedies of all time gets sexy and needs a blu ray badly!! Check this bonkers highly under-seen gem out!!
Has Cobra Kai Become a Karate Kid PARODY?! Plus Will Hilary Swank Join the Season Six FINALE?!
I’m a huge OG Karate Kid fan all the way back from seeing it in 1984!! Here’s my thoughts as an old school fan of the beloved 80’s franchise, now, looking back at SIX seasons of Cobra Kai! PLUS my thoughts on the 1994 controversial film THE NEXT KARATE KID with Hilary Swank and how they must complete the “Miyagi-verse” by putting Julie Pierce in the FINAL episodes of the series!! What do YOU think? I’m curious what fans of the original think of the direction and tone of the series and exactly how you think it might end up!
HP Lovecraft Inspiration!! The New HELLBOY Film & the 90s NECRONOMICON!!
I’ve been in a bit HP Lovecraft land as of late, watching some pretty cool old and new stuff inspired by the iconic horror writer. As a HUGE fan of the Hellboy comic books as well as the Guillermo del Toro films, (which I do really love but never felt like a true representation go the source material) I was indeed totally skeptical of the latest film. Hellboy: The Crooked Man arrived on the scene and didn’t garner much attention, however I recently gave it a shot and surprisingly here’s my review in one of my latest YouTube vids:
Then I delved deep on Halloween into possibly the BEST horror anthology of the 1990s-NECRONOMICON which like the Hellboy stuff was more than inspired by Lovecraft but based on three of his stories and the result were quite impressive check that out right here:
