You Are Awful - But I Like You!

Advantages: Camp, tacky, trashy and naff
Disadvantages: Camp, tacky, trashy and naff

...me be quite clear - Creepozoids is a truly dreadful film. Released in 1987, it is like a cheap rip-off of every monster alien film you ever saw, without any style or class and where most of the time it tries hard to be scary, it actually turns out to be funny more than anything else. The "special" effects (if they can be called that) are generally quite dire, particularly when the "Creepozoid" comes into play. Rather obviously a man dressed up in ...
...also be partly blamed for Creepozoids as she was the executive producer. Her other female counterpart, Kate (Kim McCamy) has an even more prolific movie career - 145 films and counting including everything from blockbusters (Jet Li's The One) to porn. She isn't very interesting in this. The fellas are not much better - Ken Abraham is suitably buff and butch as, er Butch but tends to act as though he is constipated. Jesse (Michael Aranda) is the boffin ...

Review of Creepozoids (DVD)

RING OF DARKNESS (2004)

Advantages: A great laugh, designed for groupies and great six packs.
Disadvantages: Really naff and the worst visual effect I have ever seen.

~~~~~~~~~ SYNOPSIS ~~~~~~~~~ The film begins with a climax, where you meet a young man named 'Gordo' (Greg Cipes), who was in a panic. Something was really wrong and seeing Gordo in a lovely mansion bedroom one evening, packing all his belongs as fast as he can, could only meant he was running away from something. Gordo manages to escape and run as far as to the beach before he was bombarded by four other young men. Gordo obviously knew them ...
...threaten to expose their dark secret to the world. It was then you realise that the four men was the make-up of a famous boyband, along with Gordo called 'Take 10'. Gordo was confident about spilling their secret to the world, but never managed it as the rest of Take 10 - Xavier (Jeremy Jackson), B.J. (Colin Bain), Jake (Matt T. Baker) and Kyle (John Wynn) attacked him…or bit him to death, I couldn't really see it. A member was lost (Gordo) who ...

...of a wrapped face with one eye exposed, above pyramid. The strap line reads “When Terror is alive...evil never dies” We bought this DVD in Tesco for the princely sum of £1. To be honest I do not like horror movies and when my partner picked it up, I was quite prepared to watch the film from behind a cushion as is my want! I need not have worried................................ The Plot and cast Set in America, six archaeology students are spending ...

Review of Bram Stoker's Legend Of The Mummy 2 (DVD)

Murder mystery, that even Quincy couldn't solve!

Advantages: Based on the Scream trilogy
Disadvantages: Badly based on the Scream trilogy

We start of with a group of friends at a house in the middle of nowhere, having a surprise murder mystery weekend for Kristin's sister Angela, who see is estranged from. Well you know the idea of a murder mystery weekend, someone kills people off and you try and solve who the killer is... well if you can solve this one midway through it then you obviously using horror movie cliches to solve it, rather than trying to follow the billion plot holes ...
...well he gets killed leading to an hour and half of plot holes which you have to try and follow, if you can stay awake for that length of time. The acting is beyond bad, in fact it's some of the worst acting you'll ever see (even by straight to video standards) The death scenes were laughable, and the gore, well that was virtually non-existent. You really begin to wonder how the producers managed to get funding for this heap of manure. Let's go ...

Review of Final Scream (DVD)

Hilariously bad horror movie.

Advantages: Very cute lads in small white pants
Disadvantages: Dreadful acting

...There film opens with a voodoo ritual involving massaging oil onto one of these hot guys as he writhes in either agony or ecstacy - the acting is ...ambiguous. There are later voodoo scenes of a similar homo-erotic nature, but with the bonus of a hilariously bad special effect which sees the boy turned into a voodoo doll. This is a bad, bad film. The plot, acting and effects all stink. It is only worth buying for the cheesy, comic value, and obviously ...
