Somebodys There is the original title of The Pigman Murders which made it Ireland’s turn to enter into the found footage sub-genre, with their creation from director and writer Stephen Patrick Kenny (24 Hours to Die [2016]), which shows great promise, especially when dealing a bunch of drunken buddies celebrating the life of fallen friend…


Santa’s Slay (2005) – By Baron Craze

During the Happy Holiday season there’s a very fun, and yet twisted subgenre of films known as Christmas Horror, sometimes they’re straightforward slashing merrily and then a few incorporate some laughter, but always either cheer or groans for the presents delivered this time of the year. Clearly every horror fan as their favorites my two…


Hole (2010) – By Baron Craze

The discovery for many reviewers and horror fans learning of the rising talents of Joaquin Montalvan came from his low-budget horror film Legend of the Hillbilly Butcher [2014], whose entire filmmaking style bucks the system of formats and structure and eclipses the boundaries of sick twisted creations of horror. Four years prior to the ‘Butcher”…


Beautiful Prison (2016) – By Baron Craze

Horror films always incorporate other genres, and director Joel Vallie who co-wrote with Eric Machiela, does just that with his dramatic and romantic movie Beautiful Prison, distributed through Midnight Releasing.

Stumbling across this movie again, I looked up previous reviews and notice one thing – so many dead links, and while it is common, it’s tad alarming, therefore why not take the time to venture back and show some care for this flick.

First, there’s a significant problem with the movie, namely…

He presents a thriller with currents of black…


Swamphead (2011) – By Baron Craze

First time directors and writers Dustin Drover and Justin Propp delivered their lowbrow comedy horror film to the masses of horror fans with style and true gusto by having it released on Wild Eye Releasing. Their movie combines multiple elements presented in a crib-sheet format, rather than the larger extent of bigger budget films and…


Collar (2014) – By Baron Craze

For the fans of exploitation genre faire, and seeking the dirty grimy grindhouse elements, one needs to reference writer and director Ryan Nicholson, bringing bloody hands and grotesque mindset of delivering horrific images not only to the screen but saturation of the scenes too. Collar earned a delicious release on Unearthed Films, in which a…


Family Demons (2009) – By Baron Craze

When cinema fans in general see the words “inspired by real events” a sense of shrugged shoulders and a rolling of the eyes, for the catch phrase is overused and a rouse to get the audience’s attention, however, delving in deeper one learns about Family Demons and director Ursula Dabrowrsky intentions.
