Blu-ray Review: ‘A Virgin Among the Living Dead’ (1973) 14 Aug 2013 | 03:45 am
I may be coming around to Jess Franco. My experiences with the director have been limited to his entries in Kino’s Redemption series of Euro-horror Blu-rays, and the first batch (Oasis of the Zombies,...
Blu-ray Review: ‘The Awful Dr. Orlof’ (1962) 12 Aug 2013 | 08:39 pm
After giving Jess Franco films a fair shake and coming to the conclusion that they just weren’t for me, along comes The Awful Dr. Orlof on Blu-ray to make me reconsider dismissing a body of work based...
Blu-ray Review: ‘Hands of the Ripper’ (1971) 24 Jul 2013 | 09:59 pm
I didn’t know much of anything about Hammer’s Hands of the Ripper when sitting down to watch it. I knew it was Hammer’s stab at a Jack the Ripper story, but that was it, and honestly? Going in blind i...
The Pros and Cons of the Zombie Apocalypse 17 Jun 2013 | 07:00 pm
You see yourself standing at the crest of a hill, overlooking the empty streets of your next obstacle. It was once a town; not too large. Likely a simple place, where everyone knew everyone else. Ther...

I’m woefully ignorant of nunsploitation films, and The Sinful Nuns of St. Valentine (available now on Blu-ray) ended up being my first dip into the unholy waters of the genre. Here’s what I expected f...
Blu-ray Review: The Grapes of Death (1978) 29 Apr 2013 | 07:00 pm
Here’s one for zombie completists – Jean Rollin’s The Grapes of Death aka Les Raisins de la Mort, so much better at being a zombie movie than his actual zombie movie Zombie Lake (reviewed here). Some ...
Blu-ray Reviews: ‘Zombie Lake’ (1981) and ‘Oasis of the Zombies’ (1982) 19 Feb 2013 | 07:00 pm
I don’t know where horror fans got the idea that “you can’t go wrong with Nazi zombies.” In my estimation, there’s one decent one – 1977′s Shock Waves – and everything else is bunk. Case in point, the...
Blu-ray review: ‘White Zombie’ (1932) 28 Jan 2013 | 07:00 pm
I assume that anyone reading a White Zombie Blu-ray review in 2013 is asking themselves one question, whether they’ve seen the film or not, “is White Zombie worth owning on Blu-ray?” The scrappy film ...

A great horror film doesn’t have to have flowing blood and the splatter of guts, but it certainly helps. The twisted minds of screenwriters and directors have brought some memorable moments of bloodsh...
