Primal Rage (1988)
Director Vittorio Rambaldi’s horror film is such a silly bafflingly bizarre horror movie that even after the credits rolled, I was kind of dumbfounded. “Primal Rage” feels so much like someone wrote a teen college drama comedy about an aspiring journalist, and his love interest. And then someone had the bright idea of taking a script for a horror movie and just awkwardly wedged it right in between all the twenty something romance and growing pains with mopey aspiring photographer Sam and even mopier student Lauren.

Five of My Favorite Childhood B Movie Queens
Growing up during the video age, and with cable television, you tend to come across a lot of recurring faces. Over the years I’ve managed to build a list of some of my all time favorite B movie queens, and these five are only a select few of the many women that influenced my love for cult cinema, and inspired me to dig deeper in to underground and horror cinema over the years.
The Black Phone (2022)
Director Scott Derrickson bring to screen what is really one of the more riveting thrillers of 2022. While “The Black Phone” almost always runs the risk of getting lost in its obvious influences of Stephen King and Amblin, “The Black Phone” ends up being a truly engaging and often scary hostage thriller. This one thinks somewhat outside the box bringing us not only in to the hot seat of the character that’s been kidnapped, but it also gives us a look at the echoes that emanate with every victim that villain “The Grabber” has ever victimized and murdered.
End Of The Line (2007)
I’m frankly shocked that I’ve never seen or even heard of Maurice Devereaux’s “End of the Line” until this year. I typically have my ears perked to new horror titles, and “End of the Line” slipped right by me. I don’t know if I’d call it a masterpiece, but it sure is a damn good siege and survival horror movie in the tradition of “Assault on Precinct 13” and or “The Void.” It’s bleak, it’s dark, it’s gory and it has a climax that will likely keep the audience debating for days.
BAD MOVIE MONDAY: HALLOWEEN RESURRECTION (2002)
Watching each new entry in a long running franchise is kind of like eating a big bowl of delicious super spicy authentic Texas Chili. The first is awesome. The second is pretty darn good too. The third is when you start to feel like this might be a good time to stop. The fourth is a bit decadent. The fifth is just pure unadulterated gluttony. The sixth you have to nearly force down your throat out of sheer perversion and greed. The seventh makes you feel as if there is something broken and very goddamn wrong with you. Why can’t you stop eating you degenerate??? The EIGHTH though? That’s when you realize that you are a completely depraved lunatic who will need immediate medical attention because your butthole will not able to push out everything that you’ve just shoved into your body.
Halloween Resurrection is the eighth entry in the Halloween franchise, and that’s what we’re going to review today. It’s the cinematic equivalent of the third and fourth circles of Hell.
