The Horror Addiction: Redneck Zombies (1986, Pericles Lewnes)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/10/redneck-zombies-1986-pericles-lewnes.html
Thursday, 29 October 2009. Redneck Zombies (1986, Pericles Lewnes). Redneck Zombies" (1986, directed by Pericles Lewnes). Version reviewed: The excellent 2009 no-region-coding 'Tromasterpiece Edition' from Troma Team Video. Came around. Why George Romero overlooked this, I do not know. I have to give thanks to Troma twiceover - first of all, no one. The 2009 Tromasterpiece (second in the series, following "Cannibal! The Musical") release is a spiffy two-disc affair that buries any previous versions of th...

The Horror Addiction: The Hills Have Eyes (1977, Wes Craven)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/11/hills-have-eyes-1977-wes-craven.html
Wednesday, 18 November 2009. The Hills Have Eyes (1977, Wes Craven). THE HILLS HAVE EYES. 1977, written and directed. Here it is, the film that actually showed Wes Craven might be capable of directing great horror pictures. I hesitate to call this film "great. Because so much of it isn't - but it's definetely got a lot of great things in it and it's miles above the horrendous "Last House on the Left" which preceded it. Pretty cool film. Evocative landscape filmed atmospherically and with passion and ...

The Horror Addiction: The Hills Have Eyes 2 (1983, Wes Craven)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/11/hills-have-eyes-2-1983-wes-craven.html
Wednesday, 18 November 2009. The Hills Have Eyes 2 (1983, Wes Craven). THE HILLS HAVE EYES PART II. 1985, directed by Wes Craven. Well, if you watch this back to ba. Some of the logic is so fucked - the script is just too lax to care. In the first movie, the family broke down for at least a reason. In this one, the bus (yeah schoolbus) springs a leak and they just RUN OUT OF FUEL. It's not Craven's worst film (ever seen "Vampire in Brooklyn"? Music of the Heart"? Posted by The Horror!

The Horror Addiction: Deadbeat at Dawn (1988, Jim Van Bebber)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/10/deadbeat-at-dawn-1988-jim-van-bebber.html
Tuesday, 13 October 2009. Deadbeat at Dawn (1988, Jim Van Bebber). Deadbeat at Dawn (1988, directed by Jim Van Bebber). Version reviewed: Uncut DVD from Dark Sky (part of the "Visions of Hell: The Films of Jim Van Bebber" collection). I also own the Synapse DVD, which featured a different transfer and an audio commentary from Jim and guests. This is one of my favourite indie exploitation releases. How to describe it? Director Jim Van Bebber as Goose. The things you see in the film - the hero jumping off ...

The Horror Addiction: Basket Case (1982, Frank Henenlotter)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/10/basket-case-1982-frank-henenlotter.html
Tuesday, 13 October 2009. Basket Case (1982, Frank Henenlotter). Basket Case (1982, directed by Frank Henenlotter). Ask anyone who knows me if I love Frank Henenlotter and they all know the answer is yes. "Who's Frank Henenlotter? They say. "Stop going on about Frank Henenlotter," I'll hear. "No, I don't want my wedding video in the style of Frank Henenlotter.". The plot can be read elsewhere and.do you really care? Frank only recently got back in the directing game so his total output since 1982 is stil...

The Horror Addiction: Combat Shock (1986, Buddy Giovinazzo)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/10/combat-shock-1986-buddy-giovinazzo.html
Thursday, 29 October 2009. Combat Shock (1986, Buddy Giovinazzo). The rather misleading poster for the 1986 'theatrical' release. Combat Shock aka. American Nightmares, 1986, directed by Buddy Giovinazzo. Version reviewed: The excellent Regionless 2009 Tromasterpiece Collection release ("2-Disc Uncut 25th Anniversary Edition") from Troma Retro (Troma Team Video). An hellish and gory Vietnam. Like human-stop-motion scenes, but the cumulative effect of the whole film is undeniable. It's really impressi...

The Horror Addiction: A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984, Wes Craven)
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/10/nightmare-on-elm-street-1984-wes-craven.html
Tuesday, 13 October 2009. A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984, Wes Craven). A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984, directed by Wes Craven). Version reviewed: The excellent Region 1 DVD inside the boxset. The idea of a supremely evil force, tied to both the physical (slasher) and metaphysical (supernatural) modes of horror, returning from the past to torment the children of sin in suburbia is a simple but brilliant premise for a horror film.

The Horror Addiction: Wes Craven
http://thehorroraddiction.blogspot.com/2009/11/wes-craven.html
Wednesday, 18 November 2009. Truly, an overly self-important horror director (I know he used to be university lecturer and all, but for every "Nightmare on Elm Street" there's a "Hills Have Eyes Part II" and "Deadly Friend" either side of it) with some true classics as well. When he's good, he's pretty astonishing, so it's really a shame when he doesn't bother. 1974 - The Last House on the Left. 1977 - The Hills Have Eyes. 1978 - Summer of Fear. 1981 - Deadly Blessing. 1982 - Swamp Thing. 1997 - Scream 2.
