I went into this movie blind, not having seen a preview or anything. That's the thing about Roku, you see a M&M's commercial like one million times but not movie trailers. I was really pleasantly surprised though. Pretty funny movie. Excellent cast filled with very funny people. It was mostly a Mama spoof with many other movies thrown in, including Evil Dead '13. This is the first time I've seen a spoof the weekend after the movie being spoofed opened! So yeah it was really funny and well made. Some of the slapstick humor didn't really work for me but there was enough jokes that did work it kept it entertaining. Check it out!

Watched Dreamscape on the Threshhold+ channel on Roku. I think this movie was the first time I saw video boobs so I decided to check it out again. Dennis Quaid is a down on his luck psychic who gets offered to be in an experiment on dreams. Turns out the President is having bad dreams and a shadow government big shot wants it taken care of.
The dream sequences in this movie are awesome! It's actually a lot of fun. What's weird is in 1984 both this movie and Nightmare On Elm St. had a dream killer with metal nails. Who ripped off who? One think that was really amazing is there was a commercial that asked me a question while I was watching. I used the controller to answer. Lot's possibilities here with maybe choose your own adventure stuff in the future? http://www.facebook.com/thresholdtvnetwork Being the big Full Moon fan I am I rushed out and picked this up the day it was released to Redbox. I love the black horror movies, especially when they got racist cops. Working the night shift I met many black people who were terrified of cops so this rings true for me. The puppetry is really good even though there is no stop motion. Full Moon really stepped up their game with this cast featuring Karen Black and Stacy Keach who both turn in great performances. The kills were a little lackluster but I guess holding out on the gore keeps Full Moon movies in grocery stores. I'm really left wondering, what is up with Hambo? This is second movie he's been in. Is this leading up to a Hambo feature? Videozone included on DVD. Awesome movie, check it out!!
1979 made for TV movie which I watched on Drive In Classics. Psychopathic van driver "The Fiddler" runs woman off the L.A. freeway while a lady reporter with a typical "if it bleeds it leads" attitude exploits the story to advance her career. Some good stunts throughout. Freeways are very scary to me anyway so this movie was effective. Lot's of women's lib stuff here as our hero contemplates if she should stay single or let a man take care of her. Also one expert theorizes the killer thinks women are "too big for their britches". I made it almost to the end then rolled over and listened to the climax which was a bunch of tires squealing.
Spawn Atomic are a California based horror-punk band who have been playing since late 2007. They are working on a new album called "Bad Batteries" which will be on the Giant Girlfriend label this year. This song totally rocks! I wanna do a sci-fi punk video soon and this is right what I am into. Follow these guys on Twitter at @S@SpawnAtomicpawnAtomic
Ever since I was in middle school Full Moon movies have been a treat. They're cheaply made but so much more creative then the typical Hollywood product. The sex comedy isn't my favorite sub-genre but this movie was a big exception! You take two of my favorite things in life and make 'em fight each other and how could it go wrong? Where I think this horror sex comedy succeeds when others have failed is that it only has one bimbo character. In the past Full Moon seemed to think slutty airheads were the fan boy fantasy. This movie has tough smart women and I prefer that. Really top notch acting from the whole cast. Director Alex Nicolaou did a great in that regard and the movie was shot professionally as well. Plenty of tits and gore and that makes this movie a masterpiece in my book. Wish there would have been a Videozone though.
I like whores and I used to like crack, so this movie should be right up my alley!! Looks like a I Spit On Your Grave spoof similar to I Spit Chew On Your Grave. I see a bright future for the folks at Fart House Cinema!
Holy Madness is a horror punk band from Germany playing fast, dark intensive songs. I always enjoys bands who wear costume and make up on stage. It just makes the show more fun. You can hear their spooky German language songs on their facebook page:
