Toys Are Not for Children - US poster
A perverse little tale of daddy love, Toys Are Not for Children is a jaw-dropping experience and rather better made than you'd expect. It is served well by this excellent poster.
Longbarrow’s death in The Mummy’s Shroud
With limited screen time in The Mummy's Shroud, Ripper manages to create an incredibly sympathetic character in Longbarrow. Longbarrow's death at the hands of the Mummy is a shocking moment.
The Human-Faced Dog (1990)
This video is the definition of nothing. It's a worthless waste of a good puppet and certainly a worthless waste of tape.
Shoot First, Die Later - Mexican poster
I was having a squizz at Raro Video's set of Fernando Di Leo crime flicks and nearly choked on my own spit seeing the cover artwork for Shoot First, Die Later.
Ghost Snatchers (1986)
From the director of The Story of Ricky comes a Wong Jing scribed Ghostbusters cash in!
Stone Cold - Italian poster
He's an odd one. This Italian poster for Craig R. Baxley's actioner/Brian Bosworth vehicle/biker flick masterpiece, Stone Cold, seems to be channeling The Terminator.
What the dickens is this?!
I watched City of the Living Dead for the billionth time this week. While it's an amazing film and among the best from Fulci's golden era of gooey horror, it does contain some fantastically stiff and silly dialogue.
Gyaos (ギャオス Gyaosu)
With Gamera vs. Gyaos, Gyaos became Gamera's second adversary and a worthy followup to Barugon. While certainly a more restrained kaijū in comparison to its predecessor, Gyaos nonetheless brings the goods.
Friday the 13th: Halloween Night (1994)
I know the effort it takes to make a film and it blows my mind that someone could be fan enough to dedicate that much time to something that is essentially not their own. With that in mind, this is a post for those true heroes of horror: the fan-filmmakers.
Breeders - US poster
I was thinking about Tim Kincaid, gay porn auteur and the genius behind Robot Holocaust, today, and that got me dribbling over the many lovely painted posters for his films. Here's one I particularly dig, the poster for his 1986 effort Breeders.
Lone Wolf and Cub destroy an army
I probably don't need to tell you that the Lone Wolf and Cub film series is amazing. With beautiful swordplay, arterial sprays and Tomisaburô Wakayama's miserable face, each film is outrageously entertaining.
