Despite my utter hatred for Greg Mclean’s first feature film, Wolf Creek (review), I was highly anticipating his next film, Rogue. I may have had disdain for the terrible Wolf Creek, but I can’t deny that Mclean certainly has an eye for stunning shots. When Rogue was denied a theatrical release by [...]

For every Mist (review), you get Sleepwalkers.
For every 1408 (review), you get The Lawnmower Man.
For every Carrie, you get Cujo with that feeble ending.
For every 1980’s Salem’s Lot miniseries, you get 2004’s Salem’s Lot miniseries (with Rob Lowe no less).
You get the point. Stephen King adaptations are notoriously hit-and-miss. That’s even taking into [...]

RetarDEAD is a sequel of sorts to filmmakers Rick Popko and Dan West’s Monsturd. Though I haven’t seen Monsturd, I found myself easily engaged in the storyline of RetarDEAD, which takes most of the same characters from Monsturd and places them in another scenario where the evil Dr. Stern (Dan Burr) has [...]

In 2006 the one man movie making machine that is FSudol gave us City of Rott, which was a animated tale of a cranky old bastard searching for his shoes in a city that is overrun with zombies. It was a gore drenched spectacle, laced with great humor. Unfortunately there were issues [...]

Whenever I get sent a screener for some independent film, I get a bit apprehensive. I mean, a majority of them that I’ve seen aren’t really all that good. Hell, they’re downright terrible. When Sarah (Fatally Yours) offered her staff of writers multiple screeners to pick from a while back, I wanted [...]

I’ll admit that I had no idea what to expect from this short movie. Sometimes though that works out for the best, not always, but sometimes. Fortunately, in the case of This Side of Nightmare it was definitely a case of working out for the best, as this is a short and [...]

Posted in Horror Reviews on August 28th, 2008 by Fatally*YoursReview by Dana R. Davidson
As with most remakes, I expected very little going into The Wizard of Gore. Hello, Texas Chain Saw Massacre remake, terrible in my opinion, a travesty. To my happy surprise Jeremy Kasten’s version of Wizard had me at hello.
As with anything in life, say, pleasing oneself and others, or say filmmaking, [...]
