No Son of Mine (Shovel to the Head Unwanted Child Horror)
I apologize to the dev for sitting on this one for so long but I was swamped. Ugh. Anyway, it never ceases to amaze me how often indie horror games smash the big names into the ground like so many unwanted children with shovels. If you haven’t figured out yet that’s going to be […]

Horror Vacui – S/T (Post-Goth Punk Goth)
Yes, Goth stuff. I’ve been making more of an effort to find such things for review, because I just don’t get enough. When’s the word going to get out there already that this site covers all things dark? Maybe Goth labels are simply not as proactive with publicity? That would fit the aesthetic more, […]

Cemetery Man (Grotesque and Sublime Zombie Horror Comedy)
The last great hope for Italian genre cinema, Michele Soavi’s Dellamorte Dellmore (christened Cemetery Man by October Films upon it’s US release in 1996) feels like the end of an era on celluloid. This beautiful, haunting and elegiac story of love and loss in land haunted by the undead has been tough to find […]

If you’re not familiar with its predecessor, it was a homage to the Resident Evil series, taking many of its ideas, purposefully, from the franchise, equaling what is […]

Ensuring Your Place in Hell (Splatploitation Horror Literature)
I’m going to be honest, this kind of pushed some boundaries for me, and that says a lot. I’m phased by very little, nothing much bothers me in terms of heavy description or squeamishness or violence. My avid reading of extreme horror of all kinds has completely desensitized me to the majority of things. […]

Suitable Flesh (Sexy Kinky Lovecraftian Body Swap Horror)
With the passing of director Stuart Gordon and the unwarranted attention paid to the grossly overrated Color Out of Space, we as an audience are experiencing an outrageous resurgence in the proliferation of H.P. Lovecraft adaptations. Written by Re-Animator scribe Dennis Paoli, Suitable Flesh would be the last film Lovecraft would be caught dead […]
