Snapshot (1979) – By Baron Craze

January 13, 2018
Other Worldly Cinema

This is the first theatrical feature film of director Simon Wincer considered to be an Ozploitation picture, it is actually a well-made thriller (not a horror genre creation) although even a stretch to achieve the level of a thriller aside from a few nerve-wracking scenes. The script written in just 10 days, (although only the…

Cropsey (2009) – by Baron Craze

Archived Reviews

The movie which lived on past its festival run of long ago, thriving on VOD, and now available on DVD from Breaking Glass Pictures, still holds a truly special place in both documentaries and urban legends, so often explored by horror movies in general, but never quite equal. Directors Barbara Brancaccio and Joshua Zeman present…

With the recent release of The Lure (2015) on the well-respected Criterion Collection, a musical based production and bizarre moments that filter more to fantasy than straight-up horror, hence returning to more of horror base concept. When one thinks of mermaid films, most remember Splash (1984) starring Daryl Hannah and Tom Hanks, and for the…

All of this insanity comes from screenwriter Keith Melcher (who also plays Bonejangles) his idea for this movie…

The Houses October Built 2 (2017) – By Baron Craze

January 13, 2018
Film Reviews

I actually found director and writer Bobby Roe’s The Houses October Built 2 overall impressive of how it improves from the previous film from 2014, especially showing (spoiler) that the cast didn’t die in the clutches of the Blue Skeleton’s extreme haunt experience. Although the storyline continues in the same path of exploring the extreme…
