Haunting of Crestview High aka Bad Kids Go To Hell

The movie starts with a SWAT team storming a school library where they find a bloodbath.  One of the school's students Matt is stood there covered in blood, we then back track to the beginning of the day to see the events unfold.

A bunch of students convene for a weekend detention, the usual stereotypes are there and Dr. Day the school psychologist has a plan up his sleeve.  Locking the students in, they swap stories and soon enough weird stuff happens where the students are bothered by some supernatural hocus pocus.

Basically the film is The Breakfast Club (Judd Nelson is even in it) meets a horror movie.  I didn't enjoy it at all and it seemed an age to get going.  The original title is better as they are 'Bad Kids' so the retitling remains a bit of the mystery.  Whilst I don't rate it, a friend of mine who counts The Exorcist as one of his favourites has seen it and thought it was very watchable.  So the decision is up to you, have a look at the trailer below and make up your own mind.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - 40th Anniversary Restoration

For anyone who has been living in a cave for the last 40 years, I shall briefly recap the story of one of the best (horror) films ever made.

A bunch of teenagers in a VW van come across a family of maniacs including the iconic Leatherface. One by one they fall to the macabre family until one (Sally) is left and has to endue a family meal with the deranged group.

The film wasn't allowed a release for years due to the then head of the BBFC James Ferman.  As soon as he left, the film was passed, released to cinemas and then for home release.  This new version has been restored in 4K and been given a new 7.1 sound mix.  The previous blu-ray release had some excellent bonus material including a full length documentary and various trailers and TV spots.  This new release in a swanky steel case with fetching new artwork (see above) adds even more special features which include new featurettes and two brand new commentaries.

The picture for the film is simply superb and I would imagine looks just like the day Cinematographer Daniel Pearl shot it.  The new sound mix impresses but as a purist I prefer the mono mix.  Is it worth buying again?  Well I would say yes as the picture and sound is much improved, there is the new stuff included and the artwork is far better than the previous release.

If you haven't even seen Chainsaw, this is an ESSENTIAL purchase as this is a piece of cinema history and not just another horror film.

Blacula : The Complete Collection

Blacula and Scream Blacula Scream

In 1972 Blaxploitation was in full swing with thanks to the likes of a certain Shaft and others.  AIP in their infinite wisdom knew a good thing and mixed it with horror and so brought us Blacula.

When an African Prince, Mamuwalde goes to Castle Dracula with his bride to ask for help fighting the slave trade, he feels insulted by the Count's attitude who then turns him, pops him in a coffin in one of his crypts, seals it and lets his wife perish in there whilst the Prince is entombed.  A couple of hundred years later, the coffin is unsealed by two rather camp dudes and Blacula is awoken. Spotting what he thinks is his long lost love reincarnated, he pursues her.

Just one year later, a sequel was released with the resurrection of Blacula thanks to some handy voodoo.  With Blacula back to life he bites the fella who resurrected him and the plot thickens as an ex-cop interested in African artefacts meets Blacula in his Mamuwalde persona. 

Blaxploitation isn't to everyone's tastes but these two films are pretty darn good horror in their own right.  There is a magnificient central performance from William Marshall as Blacula who gives the role dignity with his substantial acting chops (he under studied Boris Karloff at one point) and looks mighty cool and electifying whenever he's on screen.  The music is funky, the clothes are groovy and Pam Grier in the sequel, what else is there?

I've loved Blacula for years and this package from Eureka in HD is terrific and should sit on everyone's shelf as a couple of great horror films and a piece of historical cinema.

found.

Marty is your typical twelve year old, he loves the horror genre, but is bullied and ridiculed at school.  His brother Steve is harbouring a secret Marty knows, he is a murderer.  Marty knows this because Steve keeps his victim's heads in a bowling bag in his cupboard.  

Marty has just one real friend in the world, David who really doesn't acknowledge him at school because he would likely be bullied as well.  When Marty is picked on by a nasty piece of work called Marcus, his brother steps up to the mark and 'sorts him out'.  The parents aren't really supportive to Marty's cause and using his brother as a rather twisted mentor he takes matters into his own hands.

Found could be classed as a coming of age story, a drama, a horror film but I like to place it in a class of it's own.  It's a very powerful piece of film making and is no way a generic slasher film as hinted by it's cover.  It is very violent (on and off screen) and a couple of scenes are very hard going and brutal.  The acting from the young leads is first class and the supporting players are equally as good in particular the little dude who plays Marcus.

As I write this review, I'm still getting over the incredibly powerful ending, which in all honestly feels like a very hard kick in the stomach. Essential viewing, but it may seriously upset you.  It is however one of the best independent (horror) films I have seen in years.

See No Evil 2

Following on from the events of the first movie, serial killer Jacob Goodnight's corpse is taken to the local morgue.  At the same time morgue technician Amy is celebrating her birthday with a surprise party thrown by her friends.  When Tamara (Katharine Isabelle) and her boyfriend get down to some loving by Goodnight's body they soon regret it as the killer isn't dead and starts another murderous rampage.

Returning to play Goodnight is WWE Legend Glenn "Kane" Jacobs complete this time with mask as the character lost an eye in the first film.  Goodnight is an incredibly efficient and powerful killer and the supporting characters soon start dropping like flies.  Jacobs fills the screen with his huge frame and brings some Kane-like moments to the proceedings as like in the WWE, he pops up behind people at the right time to scare (WWE) or kill (film) them.  There is a great supporting cast including Katharine Isabelle from American Mary and Danielle Harris who took on Michael Myers in four films.  

The film isn't quite as bloody I feel as the first picture (it's a strong 15 so don't worry), but that doesn't matter as the Soska Sisters have crafted a film which is as much fun as it's predecessor, if not better and also to their credit a little cruel.  I do hope the money men put their hand in their pockets and bring Jacob Goodnight back, they're be idiots not too.

Quite simply fantastic horror entertainment, regardless of the WWE connection.

Day of the Mummy

When a reknowned archaeologist goes missing whilst digging in a supposed mystical tomb, a seriously rich connected guy (Danny Glover) contacts an Egyptian expert Jack Wells to join a new team to find out what went on.  Jack actually has to locate a priceless jewel with alleged legendary powers, which will repay a debt to Glover's insanely rich character.  Armed with a pair of glasses with a built in camera, Wells sets off with his team to see what happened to the previous diggers.

The movie now switches to a POV style and follows the escapades in the desert.  At this point I groaned as I was quite looking forward to a Mummy movie as there hasn't been one for a while.  However the POV photography is quite atmospheric and once the nasties turn up, it all becomes quite good fun.  It's incredibly well shot and makes a change from woods and forests for this type of film.

I would have preferred a 'straight' horror film as POV/FF films are seriously beginning to 'grind my gears' but this one isn't too bad, I've seen a lot better but there is also a lot worse around.

Graduation Day

Laura Ramstead dies tragically on the running track after being cheered on by the crowd and her high school coach.  Her Sister Anne comes home from the Navy to attend what would have been Laura's Graduation and soon members of Laura's athetics team start getting murdered.

Yes, we are in slasher territory here folks, with a dusty old classic from 1981.  You can tell it's the early eighties with it's synth soundtrack complete with dreadful title song, HUGE hair, extremely high running shorts and dubious creepy camera angles of ladies' bums. It's not particulary gory or bloody, but it is very well made with some interesting editing and nice camerawork.  Script wise, it's pretty much by-the-numbers (with some red herrings) but with a cup of tea and in a biscuit in hand I found it rather appealing.  One part of the film I thought was utter trashy film making genius was the scene when Linnea Quigley is being menaced and whilst running her top comes apart to show the audience all her glory, slightly crass but hey its a product of it's time.

88 Films' maiden voyage into their Slasher Classics Collection starts off well with this title and there's plenty more on the horizon. Extras wise we have High Rising's Scream Queens documentary featuring Danielle Harris and Sybil Danning amongst others, a Justin Kerswell interview, various Troma goodies and Sgt. Kabukiman chatting with Linnea Quigley.

Good stuff and well worth a purchase, all wrapped up in a red box with reversable sleeve and some interview notes inside.

The Island of Dr. Moreau (1977)

Cast adrift in the ocean after his ship sinks, Andrew Braddock and fellow crew mate Charlie see an island in the distance and paddle towards it.  Soon after they hit land Charlie dies and Braddock is captured in a trap and awakes under the care of the island's inhabitant Dr. Moreau. 

Braddock is welcomed by the doctor, his second in command Montgomery and the beautiful Maria.  Something isn't quite right and eventually Dr. Moreau tells him he is experimentating with the gene pool.  Not long after Braddock encounters Moreau's creations, half-man and half-beasts living in a cave in the nearby mountains.  

Based on HG Wells' novel, it's the second adaption of the source material and there was a third one in 1996 (whose production problems are well documented).  This 1977 version was directed by Don Taylor and is heavily influenced by the Planet of the Apes series.  Taylor directed the third Apes film so this film has a familar sounding music score, make-up by Apes' John Chambers and the creatures run a little like the Roddy McDowall apes.  

It's pure escapism and the cast (York, Lancaster, Davenport and the stunningly beautiful Barbara Carrera who did a rather strange pictorial promoting the film in Playboy) is terrific.  A nice fun monster movie from AIP who around the same time brought us massive chickens in Food of the Gods, now there's a bonkers film for another day.

Damn Sea Vampires!

AKA BEAST OF THE BERING SEA

The Hunter family are the best dredgers on the coast, whilst out on the water searching for gold one of their crew is killed.  The body is soon discovered by a marine biologist who is tracking a new species feeding on seals.  Hoping to keep the death of the crewman quiet, it goes terribly wrong shortly after when the Father is killed whilst fishing.  The Hunter siblings team up with their new crew-mate and the biologist to 'study' and wipe the creatures off the face of the earth. 

What can you say about this film with that title?  It certainly can't be taken seriously with the logic of some of the character's actions beggars beyond belief.  They get over the death of their Father within minutes and no seems to give a toss about the various disposable characters getting killed in gross ways.  Who really cares when the film is this stupid?  The creatures themselves look like a Ghoulie dressed up as Batman, with the CGI used being the standard of a Playstation 2 game.  

The siblings are played by Jerry Maguire's Jonathan Lipnicki and Cassie Scerbo from Sharknado who 'phone in' their performances as do the rest of the cast as we're not talking Oscar winning material here.  Can I recommend this film?  If Asylum epics and CGI beastie films float your boat (nautical joke intended) give it a go, it won't change the world but it is entertaining rubbish of the highest order.

Unhinged

Three girls set off in their car to go to a rock concert, during a storm they lose control of it and end up in a ditch.  Waking up, they find themselves in care of Marion Penrose and her wheelchair bound Mother.  Although rather strange, they offer shelter and food until the girls are better.

However, all is not what it seems as one of the girls desperate to contact home attempts to make her way to the local town and whilst trying to get there, ends up on the wrong end of a scythe.  The local handyman informs the lead character Terri that people have gone missing and who is the weirdo spying on the girls taking a pointless extended shower?

This paves the way for a blood soaked finale for one of the infamous Video Nasties originally released by Avatar (them of the creepy whispering logo).  The acting is somewhat amateurish, but the incredible synth music score is so trippy with it's crashing cymbals it'll blow you away.  I've never seen the film but it got my attention immediately with a topless shower scene straight after the credits and whilst there are far more films better out there, I found it all rather engaging in a cheap 1982 way.

Finally, any movie where one of the characters (Marion Penrose) looks like Jack from 'On the Buses' gets my vote every time.

The Incredible Melting Man

On a manned space trip to the rings of Saturn, astronaut Steve West and his crew are exposed to radiation.  Upon return to Earth, two of the crew die and Steve suffers from severe radiation burns.  He awakes and sees himself in the mirror and understandably goes barmy, then it's off on a murderous rampage melting as he goes.

Looking for Steve is his friend Dr. Nelson and an Army General, they are soon joined by the local sheriff as the bodies begin to pile up.

The film is one not to be taken seriously, it's more like a silly comic book story with lovely gooey effects from Rick Baker.  There is also some dopey comedy from a couple of pensioners who have victims wrote all over them thrown in amongst all the mayhem.  A terrific 70's TV movie'esque score runs throughout the picture sharing equal billing with some fantastic flared trousers.  Very enjoyable in a totally gormless way and I was thoughly entertained for the majority of the film.  The ending is so crazy, it has to be seen to be believed.

Arrow's blu-ray has a nice remastered picture with some informative interviews from the director, Rick Baker and very briefly make-up guy Greg Cannom.  There's also a Super 8 version included for a real retro vibe, the original trailer and plenty of great publicity such as lobby cards and posters. Another quality lot of extras from the Arrow gang.

Worth picking up if monster movies or silly gooey effects pictures are your thing.

The Killjoy Collection

The following review is dedicated to my good friend and fan of clowns in general, Tom Hunt.

Killjoy isn't your normal run of the mill scary clown, he's a demon whose purpose is to be used for revenge.  The series kicked off in 2000 and featured a plot around gangland culture.  The film was essentially an urban/blaxploitation type picture and was successful enough to warrant a sequel 2 years later.

In Killjoy 2: Deliverance From Evil, the clown is summoned again for revenge and goes on a killing spree.  Killjoy's return is explained by the story of part one passed around the neighbourhoods and after a tragedy, he's turns up again for some murderous escapades.

In Killjoy 3, the actor portraying Killjoy (Angel Vargas) was replaced by a fella called Trent Haaga who is a veteran of various Troma films and I feel has brought a real sense of fun to the role.  Eight years had passed since the first sequel and producer Charles Band decided to revamp the series.  

Killjoy Goes to Hell is the fourth film to date and consists of poor old Killjoy on trial in hell for 'letting the side down' by allowing a victim to escape.  He has to prove to the powers that be that he is deserving of being a demon.

The later entries (3 and 4) showed the advancements in low budget film-making since the originals and with Killjoy's cronies including his on/off girlfriend Batty Boop getting larger roles it all gets a bit barmy and immensely entertaining.  

The films are certainly an acquired taste and not to everyone's liking.  They're utter nonsense of course but enjoyable nonsense and a bit of a bargain as well.

The Pigman Murders

A group of friends decide to make a homemade documentary showing their trek up an Irish mountain as this was one of their late friend Brendan's favourite places.  They hire a professional cameraman to document the journey and after meeting up they all set off.

Yes, The Pigman Murders is another 'found footage' epic shot on a low budget, but this film is a little bit different.  For starters, the footage is presented jumpy and glitchy as it is says at the beginning it is culled from an internet source after the group go missing. This initially got on my nerves but I quicky warmed to it and it became essential to the enjoyment of the film.  Also, it's edited almost like a home video with chatty friends and fun escapades.  Suddenly, the bickering starts.

The film draws you in voyeuristically (is that a word?) and you never quite know if and when the 'Pigman' will turn up creating a fair bit of tension and at times dread.  Acting wise it comes across occasionally I feel a little bit forced, but the performances are generally quite natural and blend in with the style of the film.

It's not the best 'found footage' film out there, but it is definately one of the better ones and worth a bash if the FF genre is your thing.

Werewolf Rising

Recovering addict Emma returns to the family home after many years away.  In her absence the property has been tended by her Dad's friend Wayne who greets her warmly.  Prior to that, an escaped convict played by craggy faced character actor Bill Oberst Jr. is attacked by a werewolf as he menaces a young woman he had abducted.

Emma meets the local 'bad boy' Johnny Lee who happens to be Wayne's nephew and they struck up a friendship.  Johnny and Wayne both have murky secrets and its not long before Emma regrets returning home.

Werewolf Rising is part human drama and part horror picture.  Unfortunately it commits the sin of not having much werewolf in a werewolf movie.  When the howling beast turns up, its not for long and the film is over.

I'm afraid the film didn't do anything for me, the werewolf costume wasn't bad and some of the acting was pretty good.  It was all a bit boring and not much went on.  One to miss or if you really don't have anything else better to do. Awesome artwork, though.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space

"In Space No One Can Eat Ice Cream!"

One night a bright light shoots across the sky and apparently lands somewhere in the woods.  A young couple decide to investigate and find a circus tent.  Earlier that night an old dude and his dog also decided to investigate and were consquently abducted.  The circus tent isn't a tent but a UFO comprising of sinister alien clowns intent on kidnapping and harvesting humans.

As you would expect the local police aren't convinced especially Officer Mooney who hates College kids and isn't impressed with the clown story.  However a sympathetic cop agrees to look into it and then all hell breaks loose as the clowns run rampage all over town with their weird gadgets and frightening hand puppets.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space is simply one of the greatest (horror) comedies of all time, it's right up there with Gremlins as a fun filled cinematic experience.  The imaginative clown design and colourful production design looks great on blu-ray and apart from a couple of bits you wouldn't think the film was over 25 years old.  There are countless moments to chersih such as the twisted Punch and Judy show, the balloon dog that barks and the little clown and his boxing match with a hell's angel.  Acting wise the film is totally stolen by John Vernon as Officer Mooney who is a right miserable old git who practically hates everyone.  His death scene whilst not to give it away is totally bonkers and hilarious.  The movie also features probably one of the greatest theme songs from any film ever by The Dickies, I defy anyone not to hum it after hearing it a couple of times.

Arrow (and MGM) have done wonders with the film and have packed the blu-ray with stacks of extras including a commentary, making of feature, up to date interviews from earlier this year, bloopers, deleted scenes and storyboards.  In fact Killer Klowns earns this year's 'LIFEFORCE' award as the best Arrow release in my opinion since Hooper's vastly under-rated gem came out.

A totally essential purchase, in fact a law should be passed to have this blu-ray in everyone's collection.  The Chiodo Brothers are utter geniuses.

Twins of Evil

The good people at Network continue their 'British Film' series with this remastered blu-ray of one of Hammer Karnstein epics and a creepy one it is too.

Two beautiful twins move from Vienna into the country to live with Uncle, Gustav who happens to be Peter Cushing and a witch finder/vampire killing bad ass in the way only Peter Cushing could be. Of course with the creepy Count Karnstein on the prowl, the twins soon become the title of the film.  Karnstein is up to no good with satanic practices abound and soon becomes a vampire.

Twins of Evil as you would expect drips in atmosphere, has a terrific music score, great sets and a sensational central performance from Mr Cushing.  The twins are sexy (they were in Playboy after all) their dubbed performance isn't bad but they are only really here for one thing, work it out.  Who would thought that director John Hough went on to work for Disney extensively and also make the Biggles movie.

For some reason Twins of Evil has always escaped me, don't know why as I have an extensive Hammer collection.  It's good fun and worth adding to the collection.  Damn, I really do love the Rank gong man at the start, makes you proud to be British.

Countess Dracula

As the 1960's drew to a close and the 70's began, horror films became more violent and more overtly sexual.  Seeing this trend Hammer Films upped their game and started to produce more violent and more explicit pictutres compared to their previous output. Countess Dracula is one of those films.

A widowed Countess discovers that her youth and sexual appetite can be saved (for a time) by bathing in the blood of young women. The Countess has a partner in crime for this and another young lover as her 'bit on the side'.  She takes the identity of her own 'daughter' to deflect suspicions and the killing continues.

Based on the age old tale of Elizabeth Bathory, Countess Dracula is old school Hammer (blood and boobs) with the central role played incredibly well by the late (dubbed) Ingrid Pitt.  It's all very atmospheric and well made by Peter Sasdy and is well worth adding to your horror collection.  The film is also one of the few Hammer's to remain as an 18 Certificate, some of them are now '12's.

Way of the Wicked

Now here's something that doesn't happen a lot, Vinnie Jones playing a sympathetic character.  In this film he portays John Elliott a smalltime cop/single parent raising a young daughter.  A few years ago his daughter Heather's friend Robbie was involved in the death of a small child and with the scandal it brought moved out of the area.  Now Heather is at High School, Robbie is back.

Robbie immediately befriends Heather again much to the annoyance of the 'in crowd'.  Weird stuff begins to happen to people as it did all those years ago when Robbie and Heather were little.  

Enter a priest played by Christian Slater who informs Vinnie that Robbie may be the Anti-Christ.  As you would expect Vinnie isn't impressed but then it all behgins to piece together.

With the Anti-Christ plot I was expecting an Omen rip off in fact if anything the film owes quite a bit to Brian DePalma's underrated The Fury.  A nice little time waster and there is one particularly great death which I rather enjoyed.

The Captive aka Armistice and Warhouse

Every morning Marine AJ Budd is awoken and has to fight for his life against some form of mutant.  He has to kill that said mutant to live for another day.  Weary, AJ cannot comprehend why he has been put here but knows every day is the same - kill or be killed.

Whilst searching the house he stumbles upon a journal of another soldier who was in the same predicament he is in.  He learns more as he reads and decides its time to make that escape.  Even capturing a mutant doesn't help as it all goes back to square one the next day.

The Captive retitled for UK release stars The Vampire Diaries/Immortals' Joseph Morgan as AJ.  He has to carry the film completely by himself and does a damn fine job.  The mutants are suitably nasty and have a Outpost/Shock Waves vibe about them.  Whilst being trapped in a house isn't the most original concept, considering the low budget the film makers have pulled off an interesting and intriguing film.

The ending has one hell of a twist and please watch all the credits, as there is more to come after they have rolled.  Short and snappy, a pleasant change from zombies and slashers.

The Monster Club

During a pleasant evening stroll, an author of horror literature played by John Carradine is bitten by a vampire.  The vampire introduces himself as Eramus and thanks the author for having such excellent quality blood.  Informing him he didn't take enough to 'turn him' he invites the author to 'The Monster Club'.

The Monster Club is a place where creatures of the night hang out, wear poorly made masks and dance to dodgy 80's music.  Eramus explains the rules of monsterdom and shares three stories.

I remember watching this on the old Precision Video (Betamax as well in those cool hard cases) along with a double bill of Hawk The Slayer.  Years later I would find out they were both made by the same production company.  The Monster Club was produced by Amicus legend Milton Subotsky and directed by Roy Ward Baker, a veteran of many Hammer films.  Subotsky managed to get a pretty decent cast on board including Donald Pleasance and Simon Ward.

Whilst it's not up there with the Amicus anthology classics, it is fun and Price proves again he was one of the very best.  His voice and delivery is terrific and you get the feeling him and Carradine were enjoying themselves immensely.    The kids of today might find it a bit quaint, but it's a film for my generation and as I said a fun one at that.

A nice blu-ray (withthe isolated music score) and in widescreen as well complete with original cinema poster artwork on the sleeve, a real improvement over my ragged old ex rental cassette.
