Heroes Three - Spanish poster

Heroes Three – Spanish poster

Mid-punch action! Beams of light! Furious faces! Weapons! I highly recommend clicking through to see a blown up version of this out of control poster for Heroes Three!
Mutant birth nightmare from It's Alive III

Mutant birth nightmare from It’s Alive III

It's Alive III: Island of the Alive is my favourite from Larry Cohen's mutant baby franchise. Why? Because it doesn't take itself seriously as witnessed in this insane opening scene.
Young Doctors In Love - US poster

Young Doctors In Love – US poster

While the humour inherent in this poster is clearly intended given the spoof nature of the film itself, I really have to give the designer credit for executing the concept in an aesthetically pleasing way.
Manhattan Baby - US poster

Manhattan Baby – US poster

I imagine most of my fellow Fulci fanatics would agree Manhattan Baby is not a high point in the great goremaster's career. This lacklustre shitter has, however, inspired a lot of great poster art.
Brion James nightmare

Brion James nightmare

The late Brion James was brilliant and out of control in everything he was in, but his role in House III: The Horror Show is particularly spectacular. Check out this incredibly insane nightmare sequence that features James decapitating a child and dressing in drag.

Bomber – French poster

This poster of a gigantic Bud Spencer punching some chumps with his giant fist is kind of terrifying...

Cinema’s most awkward and befuddling fight scene

If you have not yet seen The Occultist, HOLY SHIT. STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING RIGHT NOW. FIND IT, WATCH IT, COME BACK A CHANGED PERSON.
An interview with Brian Yuzna

An interview with Brian Yuzna

It was very daunting to speak to someone of such overwhelming achievements as Brian Yuzna. I found myself very nervous, but Brian is an excellent speaker with countless stories and a great, progressive outlook on filmmaking.
To All a Goodnight (1980)

To All a Goodnight (1980)

How did America's favourite cinematic rapist come to direct a Christmas slasher? How the fuck did this happen?! I don't know, but after watching the film, I feel that perhaps it shouldn't have happened.
Pulgasari (불가사리 Bulgasari)

Pulgasari (불가사리 Bulgasari)

While he is the product of a deeply troubling propaganda machine, Pulgasari is more exciting monster than many of his Japanese contemporaries.
Without Warning - US poster

Without Warning – US poster

I... I... I'm finding it hard to breathe as I gaze deep into this poster...
