The first monthly wrap up of the new decade! Woo! Yeah, whatever. We spent the first three weeks of the month with nos erver, but a new rig has us up and running to catch up. How exactly did the horror genre ring in the new year? Let's take a look...
At the theater we got:
Limited releases of Case 39 and Bitch Slap, which were both guilty pleasures in their own right. Case 39 was better than I'd expected, and Bitch Slap was just sleazy fun.
Splice and Buried played Sundance, and the early word on both is that they could be awesome when they see a proper release.
Daybreakers was pretty good, but should have been better.
The Lovely Bones was fantastic, and I can't wait to own it on Blu-ray.
The Book of Eli is still on our "need to see" list, but it looks great. Oldman and Denzel... it has to be good.
Legion underwhelmed us, hence us not rushing to pop the review up.
Afterdark Horrorfest 4 is solid so far, and may be their best outing yet. I'll let you know after we see the last 4 movies.
On DVD we got:
Own it- Blood Creek, Dawn of the Dead Director's Cut (2004, Blu-ray), The House on Sorority Row, Kingdom of the Spiders, The Toolbox Murders (1978, Blu-ray), Pontypool,
Rent it- Moon, Saw VI, Pandorum, Gamer, Downloading Nancy,
Skip it- Paintball (VOD), Wicked Lake (Blu-ray), Halloween II, Whiteout, Bad Biology.
Rent it or skip it, we can't decide- The Final Destination, Across the Hall.
The ones we didn't see- Hellweek, Spree, Ravage, Inalienable, Alone in the Dark 2.
So, theatrically January was a pretty good month for horror, while DVD wise it was kinda blah. Will February be any better? Frozen, Shutter Island and The Crazies may just make the box office better, and flicks like House of the Devil, Zombieland, Cabin Fever 2 and Dead Snow look to impress on DVD, so we horror fans may just have a great month ahead of us.
Stay tuned.

Do Not Want- Paintball (2010)

This movie is such a mess, I don't even know where to start. The constant shaky cam might be a good place. The horribly written and acted characters might be another. Better yet, the shoddy story that felt like it had been written by a couple of middle school kids might be it too. Take your pick, it's all equally worthy of our collective venom.
The story borrows heavily from films like Martyrs and Hostel, with touches of Gamer and let's say every backwoods horror movie you've ever seen thrown in, and then shits on it all. A lot of it didn't make much sense, but it's basically about a group of tools on a paintball trip who realize soon enough that the game is real and the stakes are -dun,dun,dun- their lives! Interesting enough premise, but too bad the execution was so horrible.
Do these people know how to play paintball? They stand out n the open, talk loud and even scream. When people start dying, they still scream. Loudly and often. Once the first person was killed, wouldn't you think that shutting up and keeping out of plain sight might be for the best? So many of the characters actions were nonsensical or cheesy, that about 15 minutes in, I didn't care anymore. I really hate when characters are nothing more that plot devices, without a trace of depth or worth other than to be there, act stupid, and die.
I also hate when film makers treat me like I'm a moron. You see, if the camera is looking one way and we the audience can't see something, then neither can the characters, right? Even if it's something in plain view of all of them, like a body stretched out in the open right in front of most of them. IN PLAIN SIGHT. But the camera swings and... the characters react! Too much of the film made no logical sense, and again, within 15 minutes I was well past the point of wanting to watch anymore, though I did.
And what's with the shaky cam thing? the entire time, the camera jiggles and shakes as if were watching things from an unseen killers point of view, but were not. The killers POV was all shown through thermal imaging goggles, and the death scenes were mostly shown through them too, basically editing out any gore we may have seen. I don't get what the filmmakers were going for with most of it, but it grated on the nerves.
And the ending... what the hell even happened? Screw it. It just doesn't matter.
The Master Says- DO NOT WANT! That's right, the master was not pleased at all, and he thinks that neither will you be if you waste your time on this movie. Bad writing, bad acting, bad camera work, bad directing... I could go on and on about the bad points of this movie, but it would be a fruitless exercise. It's been a long time since a movie left me truly pissed off, and this is coming from a guy that was shaking mad after watching last year's Halloween 2. I think I'd actually watch that one again first.
Do Not Want- Whiteout (2009)

When I saw the trailer to this movie, I was excited. I love movies set in isolated, snowy wilderness locales, I love Kate Beckinsale, I usually love Tom Skerritt, and above all I really love Horror/Thrillers. Serial killer flicks just do it for me, as do movies like this which are basically "Adult Slashers."
I guess I should have known that it would suck after going through so many rewrites, reshoots, acting and directing changes, and sitting on the shelf for the better part of two years, as that doesn't generally happen to good movies.

Why does it suck? Mainly because it should have been so much better. Great setting, great premise, strong acting talent... but the storyline, script and pacing were so predictable and weak, that everything else ceased to matter one bit. I guessed the "Twist" near the beginning (and I'm not bragging, it was just that obvious), and it was lame. Worse still was the dialogue, which was so bad in places that it made the pacing seem even more tired and slow than it was on its own.
Kate Beckinsale is hot and a decent actress, and I felt bad for her as an actress, having to plod through this script. She's much better than the shite that she has to work with here, as is Tom Skerritt for that matter, and they both seemed to be trapped not by an impending Antarctic whiteout, but by the trappings of a shoddy movie.

I will say that the movie's poster is truly awesome. Do yourself a favor at stare at it for 90 minutes, and don't waste your time on this blizzard of crap. Watch the Fritt Vilt movies instead if you want to see good snowbound slashers.

Blood Creek (2010)

BLOOD CREEK (aka Town Creek)
Sub-Genre- Occult
Cast Members of Note- Dominic Purcell, Henry Cavill, Michael Fassbender, and Emma Booth.
Directed by Joel Schumacher.
What's it About?- During WWII, a German family living in America is bribed by the Third Reich to let a Nazi scholar come and live with them on their quaint little Town Creek farm. It turns out that the scholar is in search of a rune stone that is buried on their property, and wants to use it to turn himself into a super Nazi bad-ass. Subsequently, the family is trapped on their farm (which is frozen in time) and put through hell for the next several decades.
![]() |
| "Ich liebe untoten Pferde!" |
Fast forward about 70 years, and we meet Evan; an EMT with a heart of gold, who lives near Town Creek and is a mess since his brother Victor disappeared while they were camping together 2 years earlier. How do you stay lost in the woods for 2 years? I don't know the answer to that one, but when Victor suddenly shows up in the middle of the night looking like Dan Haggerty on crack, the two of them head back to Town Creek to get revenge on "those kraut bastards" who have been keeping him a prisoner all along.
![]() |
| For the love of God I hope he's planning to shoot Channing Tatum. |
The problem is, "Those Kraut bastards" have a super Nazi bad-ass necromancer with a thirst for warm blood locked in their cellar, and when he gets out they're all pretty much destined to die painfully. Can the brothers defeat the evil Nazi sorcerer? Will zombie horses nip a guy in the shoulder and pull him through the window? Do the words "bone armor" make anyone else laugh other than me? Maybe, yes, and they just have to.
![]() |
| Bone armor... lol. |
The Good- I am absolutely astounded at how good this movie was. First and foremost, I loved the premise; the Nazi's sent "Scholars" to America to find ancient rune stones, hoping to harness their occult powers to win WWII and thus rule the world. If that isn't creepy, I don't know what is, especially since the Nazi's actually were into the occult.
The occult aspect of this movie is its strong point. Magic rune stones, reanimated dead people and animals, blood rituals, wards painted on the house to keep the evil at bay, people frozen in time, the Lovecraftian "third eye", and those creepy necromantic spells that the Nazi whispers... It was just all really, really cool.
I actually felt tense during much of this film, and especially once the super Nazi shows up and starts kicking all sorts of ass. The guy can reanimate anything dead to do his bidding, which makes things all the more interesting. Zombie horses. Yep. Bad ass. It's nice to see Joel Schumacher making a strong return to the horror genre, after all he is the guy that gave us The Lost Boys and Flatliners. And two horrible Batman sequels... anyway, welcome back Joel.
![]() |
| Yeah, this actually happened. |
The Bad- Zombie horses. Not only are they huge, mean, and very creepy to look at, but they are near impossible to kill. If it doesn't die after 10 shotgun blasts, I quit shooting and run. Or I turn the gun on myself.
The Downright Horrendous- After a few title changes and basically no promotion whatsoever, Lionsgate dumped this movie into a handful of $1 theaters and then banished it to Straight-to DVD hell. Why? Did anyone see The Stepfather, Whiteout, or Sorority Row? They all got theatrical runs, decent promotion, and they all sucked. Badly. Blood Creek is a great little movie, and I refuse to believe it couldn't have made enough $ at the BO to justify even a short release. I just don't get it.
The Gory- This one is a gorefest; blood drinking, blood letting, torture, bone knives through chins, all sorts of shotgun violence, zombie horse violence overkill, dog stabbings, zombie violence... all sorts of messy goodness to be found here.
![]() |
| Ouchie. |
The Naked- No.
Best Line- "That's mine." or "No. you're going to feed me."
What did we learn?- Zombie horses are really hard to kill. Also, Evil Nazi's never die, which means that Hitler is probably a zombie somewhere in Guam or something.
The Master Says- A (9.5/10) This movie was as enjoyable as any I've seen lately, and the best horror flick of the mew decade so far. Creepy, tense, interesting and bloody as all get out, Blood Creek is far better than its treatment by Lionsgate would have you believe. If you love Nazi's, zombies, or just have a love for the dark arts of necromancy, then you'll love this movie. You definitely need to rent this one, if not buy it as soon as you get the chance.Final Thoughts- Winter Ave Zoli is apparently NOT in this, but I love that name though, so let's look at her anyways. I also love that face.

We've been snubbed!

So we just found out that Bloody Disgusting is holding a "Best Horror Blog" award thingy over on their site, trying to spread the horror love throughout our little community, and recognize the quality blogs of our corner of the blogosphere for their hard work and genre support. Naturally, we head over to see what the dealio is, and lo and behold out of the 50 or so blogs nominated...
We weren't one of them! Oh, the humanity!
One of the nominated blogs on the list doesn't even exist when you click it, and we aren't even as good as them? That my friends, is the story of my life. Up hill both ways, on rubber crutches, on a road made of broken glass. I have no idea what I'm even saying :)
At least some of our friends got nominated. Tower Farm and The Jaded Viewer, most notably. And some other great horror blogs that we love got the nod too, like Kindertrauma, I like Horror Movies, Heart in a Jar, The Lightning Bug's Lair, to name a few more.
Click below, and head on over to vote one of them up, because they deserve the love.

P.S. Next time, we will vote for ourselves! We appreciate our own sassy brilliance and reverent horror knowledge, even if no one else does! We also like our ass a lot. It's like a firm muffin. A buttery, firm muffin.

Release Date List updated!
...and in a big way. We added a BUNCH of new release dates and posters, though the list still looks sparse. Hell, no one has anything coming out in November yet! It's still early in the year though, so keep checking back, as we do update constantly.
Release Date List
Horrorfest kicks off this Friday!

Don't forget that this years After Dark Horrorfest 4 starts this Friday in a theater near you.
Out of the 8 Films to Die For, we've seen 4 so far; Lake Mungo, Dread and Kill Theory are all great and worth a look see. Skjult (Hidden) was decent enough, thought it did frustrate me a bit. Check out our reviews below.
As for the others, The Graves, The Final and The Reeds look pretty promising, while Zombies of Mass Destruction makes me hesitate for some reason...
Overall, it looks as if this years Horrorfest is going to be the best of them yet, so get your butts to the show and support the genre you love. Or don't. But you should.

The DVD Club for January 26th, 2010.

As January comes to a close, we can only hope that Tuesday's in February will give us better DVD's to look forward to than this week (and month) did. I'm not gonna lie, it's been kinda blah. Here are this week's notables:

Saw VI is just what nobody needed this Halloween, but we got it anyway. Many may love it, but I won't be buying this one.
Pontypool, on the other hand, is exactly what the horror world needs; something that feels fresh and new, and treats us as if we have a brain in our heads. It might be more of an aquired taste in some ways, but I'll take that any day over pointless sequels from tired franchises.

The original 1978 version of The Toolbox Murders is a dandy, and is finally getting a sweet transfer on Blu-ray. Skip the lame 2003 remake and check this one out for a dose of gritty, bloody, unpolished 70's style slasher exploitation goodness.
Blade of the Ripper is another slice of retro horror fun, this time in the form of 70's Italian Giallo. Violent and stylish, this is the first movie by the guy who went on to direct Torso, so you know it's worth a look.
As for the rest of this weeks releases -Inalienable, Alone in the Dark 2, Zombie Apocalypse and Bad Biology- we're gonna take a pass and watch them once they hit cable. Maybe.
A quick review of The Road (2009)

The Road is not a horror film. It's certainly a genre flick, full of post apocalyptic ruin and chaos, and some truly horrific visuals and themes, but at its heart it's really a drama about a father and a son. Still, I believe it to be relevant to most horror fans interests to share my thoughts on the film, as it should be right up most of our alleys. Ahem.
Penned by Cormac McCarthy (No Country For Old Men), The Road is a story of a father (Viggo Mortensen) and a son (some kid actor) fighting for their very survival in a world of post apocalyptic strife and ruin. Food is scarce, bands of armed thugs roam the roads looking to take anything from anyone they come across, and hope is all but nonexistent. Did I mention that cannibalism is pretty rampant too?
It's sparse, bleak, and truly a depressing film in many ways, but it's also an uplifting meditation on sacrifice, and just what a father would do for his child to see that he's safe and cared for. I cringed a few times. I hated the ending, although I get the point of it, and the whole thing just left me feeling blah. Still, it was poignant and had something to say, which made enduring its bleakness that much easier.
It was a really good movie, but you may want to wait to see it until you're in a down mood to begin with. Otherwise, it might just ruin the rest of your day.
If I were grading, it would be a B+.
January 24, 2010
I really love this poster.

Sure, the movie doesn't come out until April, but at least we can feast our eyes on this baby until then.
Set in the near future when artificial organs can be bought on credit, it revolves around a man who struggles to make the payments on a heart he has purchased. He must therefore go on the run before said ticker is repossessed.

Daybreakers (2010)

DAYBREAKERS
Sub-Genre- Vampire
In Attendance- Me, Machine, Dave and... Machine's Dad?!?
Cast Members of Note- Ethan Hawke, Sam Neill, Willem Dafoe, Claudia Karvan and the HOT as all hell Isabel Lucas.
What's it About?- Daybreakers begins with a scene showing a cute little girl committing suicide by setting herself on fire. From that point on, any illusions about this movie being some cheesy romantic turd pile like Twilight go right out the window. Thank God.

In 2019, vampires rule the earth. The few humans that are left either hide out to avoid becoming food, or are hooked to machines and farmed for their blood, thus becoming food. Problems with this genius system arise when the vampires realize that soon, there wont be any humans left to milk, and they will all be screwed. Why are they screwed you ask? Well because without blood to sustain them, the blood suckers will become half vampire, half mongoloid atrocities.

Not wanting to turn into uncivilized monsters, there are those amongst the vamps that are trying to find a cure for their "condition." One of them, along with the help of Elvis and some hot chick, race against all time and hope to find a cure for vampire and save the world and reestablish dominance of the human race. Lead by Ethan Hawke. Think about that one. Ethan Hawke is humanity's only hope. Yeah.

The Good- Daybreakers, aside from its faults, was a pretty damned decent vampire movie. Not only did it offer us a ton of blood and gore, but the look and feel of the everyday vampire society was really interesting and fun. I expected more action, and a little more vampire badness, but overall it worked with what it was trying to achieve; a look at a normal, average vampire society, if such a thing is possible.
Willem Dafoe and Sam Neill are great in this one too, but then when are they ever not great? They're so good that they even made me believe that Ethan Hawke was good too, which he kinda was. Wow, I just said that. You win this round, Ethan Hawke.

The Bad- Jump scares. Do we really need a bat to suddenly fly into the camera, accompanied by a sharp and loud musical cue, only to fly out of the camera just as quickly? Ooh, that's real scary. This movie certainly didn't need any of that crap, and it made me wince in shame and pain more than once.
The Downright Horrendous- I'm a bit upset that Isabel Lucas didn't get more screen time. She's so cute, and her character could have been so much more integral to the plot instead of just showing up and being rushed out of the storyline. Did I mention how adorably cute she was?

The Gory- Vampire suicide, exploding vampires, vampire vomiting, staking, decapitation, poring blood, dripping blood, splashing blood... in short, yes, it's all kinds of gory.
The Naked- We get some human boobage, but it's not very sexy or hot.
Best Line- "Living in a world where vampires are the dominate species is about as safe as bare backing a 5 dollar whore." Classic.
What did we learn?- Ethan Hawke doesn't suck as much as we originally believed. Also, vampires are people too. But not really.
The Master Says- B- (7.0/10) Aside from the fact that we expected to see an all out vamp vs. human war and didn't, this was a pretty enjoyable blood sucker flick. The premise was interesting and the blood flowed freely, which is really all we can ask from a movie like this. It could have been a bit tighter in places, but all in all if you dig vampires, you'll probably dig this movie. Check it out if it's still in a theater near you.Final Thoughts- Yum.

Amer (Neo Giallo? I'm interested!)
Frozen (Ski-lift terror! Am I crazy, or does this kinda look good?)
Repo Men (The "Repo" film I actually might like.)
Night of the Demons (Typical, but could be fun.)
The Graves (AD Horrorfest is looking good so far...)

Kill Theory (2010)
This review was originally written in February 2009, but I'm bumping it since it's going to be a part of this year's AD Horrorfest...
"Wow, what a total surprise... a smart and effective "slasher" flick..."

Kill Theory (2009)
Sub-Genre- Survival/Slasher
In Attendance- Me. Machine, Erin, and The VG.
Cast Members of Note- Agnes Bruckner, Taryn Manning, the "New to me" hotness of Ryanne Duzich, and Waingro himself, Kevin Gage!
What's it about?- A bunch of yuppie larvae head out into the woods to celebrate their impending college graduation, which involves beer, guns, slutty chicks in bikini's, sex and an oiled up silk pillow case race through a pool of JELL-O... and also a creepy killer who wants them all to kill each other by 6 A.M.

Were I him, I'd kill her with my sex.
They are instructed to bump each other off or all be killed as punishment, and they start to do just that. It's kind of sad to me that friends and lovers turn on each other when threatened with painful death; I mean, I'd kill all of my friends, slowly, painfully, but I'd be real sad about it. Or maybe not. Hell, it makes for a fun game I guess... Either way, betrayal and painful death ensue.
I won't spoil the ending here, but suffice it to say that the last person alive isn't who I thought it'd be, and the "Twist" at the end was cool, without being unbelievable.

Who gave the dumb blond the gun?!?
The Good- Finally, a stalk and slash movie that didn't leave me feeling just mostly satisfied, or vaguely pissed off... It was lean, mean, well paced, well scripted and the actors all did a great job. Oh, and it's a little bit messed up and bloody too. Did I mention that I thought the ending was perfect too?
This was just a well made movie, with some hot chicks and some good kills, and I for one hope it gets a theatrical release before hitting DVD. I know it was made in 2007, and obviously went through some re-shoots, but this movie is so much better than most of the dreck we get in theaters... like The Spirit, Saw 53, Disaster Movie... are those all Lionsgate films? Oops. Get on the damn stick, Lionsgate! Don't "Meat Train" this movie!

Hey Lionsgate, would you help us bury her like you bury all of your cool horror movies? K thnx bai.
The Bad- Am I crazy or did I not catch Carly Pope in this movie? This movie obviously underwent some pretty big re-shoots/trimming, as many of the pictures I had seen from the flick online showed me things that weren't in the movie... like a different killer! the movie rocked with the changes, but it makes me curious to see the cut stuff...

Not in the movie, dammit!
The Downright Horrendous- Once again, the tight bodied slutty chick denies the token fat guy a piece of tail, just because he's geeky, socially awkward, and can only seem to generate chemistry with baked goods. Especially pie. It's discrimination I tell you!
The Gory- Shovel violence, eye violence, cool looking knife violence, man-bear trap violence... this movie has some pretty wicked and bloody kills!
The Naked- We get one pair of boobs for a second of two, and Ryanne Duzich gets pretty skimpy too, though only teases us in the end.

Oh dude, I am sooo with you!
Best Line- "Deep down, we're all killers." or "That's called closure."
What did we learn?- Women never forget once you've cheated... never! Also, don't trust your friends, they'll kill you if they can.
Rating- B++ Yes, I added two plus's; I need to see it again before I decide if it's classic enough for an A- grade, so for now, it's a B+ and then some. This was a bad ass little survival/slasher flick, that didn't make me scream at the screen 20 times... well, other than the occasional "show your boobs!"... I don't know when it's coming out either theatrically or on DVD, but see it when it does.
Final Thoughts- Oh hell yeah she's in this!

Finally, a new computer.

We have a ton to catch up on, so keep your eyes peeled.

Forget me Not (2009/2010)

FORGET ME NOT
Sub-Genre- Supernatural
In Attendance- Me
Cast Members of Note- Carly Schroeder, Cody Linley, Brittany Renee Finamore, Micah Alberti, and the hot as balls Brie Gabrielle.
What's it About?- A group of kids decide to play an innocent game of "Ghost in the Graveyard" and end up giving the local creepy kid a seizure, and nearly scaring her to death. Aren't kids cute?

Years later, the same group of asshole kids are now asshole teenagers, and are getting ready to head off to college and start their lives as asshole adults. Now, instead of silly childhood games, they play things like "Drink to excess", "I'm a total whore", and "Let's drink to excess, because I'm a total whore."


Only the virginal princess knows what's happening to them, and of course her friends all think she's bat shit crazy, which makes them all even more annoying and disposable. Can she stop the game in time to save her friends? Will everyone die, leaving her insane and alone? Will any of the hot chicks get naked and stop teasing us? Maybe, maybe not. I'll say no more

The Good- This movie is essentially one big game of Ghost in the Graveyard, but real life creepy style. A mix of your typical teen slasher and your equally as typical Asian ghost story, Forget Me Not is better than I thought it would be, but not quite as good as I'd hoped.
The movie is pretty, everyone in the movie is pretty, the story is fairly interesting and the premise well done, and ha it been "scary" at all, I would have loved it to pieces. As it stands though, it's a mostly entertaining flick that won't make you unhappy to waste an hour and a half on.
The Bad- This movie felt too tame for all of its slutty characters and bloody death scenes. Had it pushed the envelope just a bit, it could have been something special. Too tame!

She's imagining just what "pushing the envelope" truly means.
The Downright Horrendous- This movie is filled with whores, whores, whores. Screwing this one, screwing that one, sitting around in large groups and talking about who they've screwed before... in front of their boyfriends. This is disturbing in two ways; first, it's scary to think of girls actually being this slutty. Secondly, and most important of all, is the fact that none of them got naked!
The Gory- Surprisingly, this one had some cool kills and a decent amount of blood. I'm most partial to the industrial machine death myself.
The Naked- Boo! With all of the hot, nubile, slutty girls in this movie, are you telling me we can't get one naked boob? WTF?!
She's like a sex panther.
Best Line- "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, release the one ignored by heaven... 8, 9, 10, Now run and hide or join her at the devil's side... 11 comes, the clocks will chime, forgotten souls erased by time...
Midnight comes it's not too late, so kill the ghost or seal your fate!"
What did we learn?- Holy Shit is that Christopher Atkins?!? And that one other guy who I've seen in some stuff from the 80's? I guess that this teaches us that B-movie actors never truly die. Also, never pick on the sick, creepy kid.
The Master Says- B- (7.0/10) Forget Me Not was a decent effort, hampered only by being too tame and not being all that scary. That aside, it's a fun way to spend a couple of hours, especially if you like movies filled with pretty people behaving badly. How can you not love that?
Final Thoughts- I am in love. Yes, Again.
The Bad- This movie felt too tame for all of its slutty characters and bloody death scenes. Had it pushed the envelope just a bit, it could have been something special. Too tame!

The Downright Horrendous- This movie is filled with whores, whores, whores. Screwing this one, screwing that one, sitting around in large groups and talking about who they've screwed before... in front of their boyfriends. This is disturbing in two ways; first, it's scary to think of girls actually being this slutty. Secondly, and most important of all, is the fact that none of them got naked!
The Gory- Surprisingly, this one had some cool kills and a decent amount of blood. I'm most partial to the industrial machine death myself.
The Naked- Boo! With all of the hot, nubile, slutty girls in this movie, are you telling me we can't get one naked boob? WTF?!
