Scarecrows (1988) – By Baron Craze

We find ourselves venturing into a microcosm of the horror realm, yes it obviously deals with the subject of the title and while this movie isn’t about a phobia (formidophobia) of this nonentity it is not the first film to dive into this category that would be Dark Night of the Scarecrow [1981] with the…


Evil Breed: The Legend of Samhain (2003) – By Baron Craze

Films seem to gain momentum and succeed in a straight greenlit path while others have many twists and turns and end-up either shelved, or languish in turmoil hell, this movie had the latter done to it, by the distributor.

The Redeemer: Son of Satan! (1978) – By Baron Craze

This movie to some has been deemed lost however that is perhaps the incorrect terminology to use, it’s more of a forgotten and obscure film, with some vivid artwork, that most fans never knew of its existence, and while it’s a complete story there are many aspects that the ‘woke’ culture won’t like and some…

The Burning (1981) – By Baron Craze

Any true horror fan especially those that enjoy the beloved slasher subgenre, can name quite a few films that fall into this grouping, however one of the notorious few that didn’t become a franchise or even box office one-time hit is Tony Maylam’s The Burning, that’s even before its production garnished much attention in the…


The Boonies (2021) – By Baron Craze

Often filmmakers will pay homage to the films that inspirated them to venture into filmmaking, or to give a nod to another artist, but it’s truly a fine and delicate line between the realms between this and blatantly ripping films in general, and sadly this falls flatly into the latter grouping.

Halloween II (1981) – By Baron Craze

It surprises no one that after Halloween [1978] became a box office hit that the producers and studios would want a sequel, especially since the film assisted in the launch of the slasher genre with Friday the 13th [1980], though a few blips proceeded it.
