PSYCHO HOLOCAUST-Directed by Krist Rufty

Alternative Cinema

What comes to mind when hearing a title like PSYCHO HOLOCAUST? Right off the bat I go towards an old school/retro feel akin to BLUE HOLOCAUST, ZOMBIE HOLOCAUST, JUNGLE HOLOCAUST, CANNIBAL HOLOCUAST, etc…. A name like that brings goosebumps of excitement……..but done today? Not everyone gets it. Sure they are into all things 70′s/80′s but try and translate, not all have gotten it right. So yeah, we are talking a grindhouse throwback for sure. If THE GIALLOS FLAME (BLACK DEVIL DOLL, HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN,)bring the music he is most notable for, you know something is right there., I just hope the film uses the music in its proper context.

So six friends go for a camping trip only to be subjected to all things goreful and splatterific. Cut, hack, evicerate, maim, decapitate, gorge, slice, mutilate, fuck, grind- its all there. All the things us sauce lovers want out of a movie, if it delivers in respect  and all we have been subjected to in the past then embrace we do. Grainy look, incredible score, insane gore, and flat ironed characters to be knocked off one by one roughly translate to one drunken filled night in celluloid heaven. They could have played with the colour correcting a little more in certain scenes to bring us that film look then video but I guess it goes back to how creative one is and how much time you really wanna spend on the final product. Something as a filmmaker myself pay very close attention to. Although it does have a monstrous feeling of brutality and distaste to it all, especially the final sodomy scene involving some sort of tool which I will not disclose. Think yet another TEXAS CHAINSAW backwoods rendition which has been done to death. Family of freaks, the approachable one (Trent Haaga-Suburbun Nightmare, Terror Firmer) in one of his coolest and insane roles, the sick one and the mutant fuck  with a mask aka Pillowface?. Blah blah blah blah again. Try and point out the severe Tom Savini reference, if you know his background.

Let’s go back to the music- movies are 50 % visual and 50% music. THE GIALLOS FLAME are all about all things GOBLIN, Euro and 70′s soundtracks done to a tee.  When placed right it gives off such a glorious feeling you can’t turn away from, for me at least.

The DVD extras are head noddingly boring. Holy crap. Holy crap!!!!!!! I tried to get through it all but it just goes and goes and goes on with no interest at all. Fuck it, just watch the dam movie you indie freaks and enjoy a bit of nostalgia in its goriest form.

Hey…………. hi. I’m just……… meh. How are you doin’? Ya ya, it’s been a bit. Big things come up beyond your control and you have to take charge. Be in a positive mood. Keep your head up. Make sure your mind is in check. Well, it’s not entirely but we must go on. Movies don’t stop gettin’ made. They don’t stop getting distributed. They don’t stop comin’ in for reviews also, sooooooooooooooo ya. Here’s to our health if we still have even that. It has been a crazy and interesting ride.

Let’s start off with RED RIVER. I need a slashing of some sorts. Some mindless killings. Cheap thrills waaaay under my expectations but better then the last. Jacob Ennis smoked us up with STASH on the last round-hillbilly bastards on a weed crazy frenzy, and lots of female degredation. He puts us back in the sticks, with a mighty crazy family this time ‘ round. Mutated son locked up underground. Fucked father with voice box which totally stole the show. Fuuuuuuuuucked up movie. As it started with potential it quickly went below the belt and repeatedly smashed my junk. The look of the film is crisper if you dig but I don’t think that helped. A film like this deserves to be dirty. Certain characters sucked balls but some hit it off. Anyways, bloody and brutal of the indie sincere kind. Watch at your own risk. Jacob bro, I get you but I don’t get the films. We are of the same mind frame but…………….

Now CURSE OF THE SCREAMING WEREWOLF is my cup of tea. 1964 in all it’s bad vhs copy version here from www.chezzyflicks.com . They have the coolest reviving scientist tables ever in this Spanish shocker. Lon Chaney Jr. , the man of a million grade Z cult films graces us with a hefty roll as, the Werewolf himself. It’s pretty rad actually, along with the fantastic brass section blazing our eardrums with sheer sinister urges as the transformations ensue. Aztecs, Werewolves, Mummies and Doctors a plenty in thismildly paced but a howl of a film. AAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, right back to www.alternativecinema.com with a double feature of modern indie chillers. Two gruesome tales from beyoooonnnndddddd the grave. BEYOND THE DUNWICH HORROR and PRETTY DEAD THINGS. Ok, out of the two BEYOND is the better choice so when slapping in this fine ass piece of cinematic trashy plastic, you be the judge as what to watch first. Anyways, I’m not a huge fan of vampires so PRETTY DEAD THINGS was not my first choice as to what to watch first. Certain films but a genre I avoid at the video store all the time. I will say this flick is daaaaaaam fuuuuuuckin sexy though, the chicks are smokin’ hot bitches. I’m not a fan of tons of nudity to rock a film but when done right, let’s honk on bobo!!!!!!!!! No literally, Pull the fuckin’ pud. At least she ate a cock in the flick in the first few minutes so there is some redeeming value to it. Yeeeeehhhaaaa!!!!!!!!!! Also the intro with the titles kicks sooo much ass. Ya for that one bro. This one totally didn’t work for me other than Rosie palm. The second is also a Richard Griffith film (FEEDING THE MASSES, CREATURE FROM HILLBILLY LAGOON) from Scorpio Films. Killer logo man. This one is more of a take on the cult/satanixploitation? Brother comes to find his, brother on the island of Dunwich? Reporter rolls in to help out and awwaaaaaaayayyyyyyyy we go. What is cool is the grindhouse feel to this feature. It is pretty brutal, in a good way. Lynn Lowry (SHIVERS, I DRINK YOUR BLOOD) plays a labrarian to heed the warnings. “GET OFF THIS ISLAND BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE!!!! says a battered old man. It has that Killer gore, some sweet scoring, kewl vibe and an all around dingy feel. I hate explaining what the movie is about in reviews. Nothing left to watch then. I’m just hear to tell you if it was fun. Thas all.

Now let’s get into Cheezy Flicks again with “We dare you to look into” DR. BLOODS COFFIN. I’m really hip to old films lately. A new era to really delve into. Mind you, I’m big into 50′s films but the 60′s had it’s up and downs. Finding itself. Getting into new subjects and taboos and then found lots of drugs. That’s where I come in. Yaaaaa maaaaann………. This baby is in colour and full of early gore and putresence. More scientist running amok and doin’ their dastardly deeds. Experimenting on humans. How dare you. Underground catacombs filled with bodies. 1961. Prissy people in dark subject matter, I like the contrast. It has its savage moments. Again, awesome horns a blastin. This director did LADYBUGS, IRON EAGLE 1 and 2, and THE ENTITY so…………… A somewhat leveled pace but it does have its down time for sure, but makes up for 60′s style blood. The gorgeouos Hazel Court pleases us with her surely defing curves. Mmmmm mmmm mmmmmm.

Anndddaaaaaaaaaaaaa ya. Go fuckin’ watch some shit.

Cannibal Cam’s “Jam Packed Ka Fuffle” Movie Reviews!

By Cannibal Cam

Ok you bloodthirsty fuckbags, what we have here is a combined and jampacked kafuffle of movies all wrapped up into one. A good time was had watching these films: a good time indeed. Lately I have been on a string of movie watching runs, which kicks major arse cause I love all sorts of movies big and low budget. Shitty and awesome. More importantly is the fact I receive old school adult films which neither here nor there will be reviewed at this site. Creep me out and you shall find. Bush baby, bush.

Anyways, first up was a film that took me 3 times to watch. If you have to take 3 seperate sittings to watch a film then something is severely wrong. The Asylum comes at us with BATTLE OF LOS ANGELES. You got it man, yet another mocbuster from this production company of epic and giant monster proportions. Of course the unsuspecting renter, or buyer will pick this up and be thoroughly dissapointed bigtime. I haven’t seen the original and don’t really care to unless my kids want to, but this was enough to throw me right off. Time travel? Shitty robots?Nia Peeples? God dam it was tough. That one gets tossed like yesterdays jit rag.

I need my extreme fix of classic cheese of the highest order!!!!!! SOMEONE HELP MY HORRIBLE FILM VIEWING ASSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!! BILLY THE KID VS. DRACULA…… man…… by the one and only one shot Bodine. Awwwwwww, this is much more like it.  JESSE JAMES MEETS FRANKENSTEINS DAUGHTER ring a bell? If not, track down and enjoy yourself emmensly. Our good buddy John Carradine stars as the title Dracula character who runs into town  to do his nasty deeds but good ole’ Jesse James, the badass of the west just happens to not let this shit just slide. Awesome 1966 choreographed shoot outs, cardboard plots and all the fun stuff that Ed Wood rocked back in his day. Glorious drinking fun is had by all direct from www.chezzyflicks.com .

Speaking of Cheezy flicks, don’t you dare go near SLAUGHTER WEEKEND, seriously man, DON’T FUCKIN’ DO IT!!!!!!! Lame story, within stories within stories that just don’t seem to go anywhere which is brutally hard to comprehend. I hate watching movies and I’m questioning and scratching my head wondering why you would make something like this.  Stupid plot with bad acting. Horrible editing and the music just does not work. Ron Jeremy with Shawn C Philips in the most engaging conversation ever put to screen. God dam it all to hell, the flick just blows. I tell it like it is, sorry guys. Never again with this banger.

Wow,  so yet another cheezy flicks film  again, killllllleeeerrrrrrr!!!!!!! This company kicks major butt. STRIPPERLAND my friends, STRIPPERLAND. It is exactly what you think it is. ZOMBIELAND to a tee and I mean to a tee. I AM VIRGIN director Sean Skelding brings us a film that actually works in some areas……. some. Zombie strippers with ZOMBIELAND story. Actually, it’s almost a little too close for comfort. I hope this is just a plot to get a recognized name because this was a little too easy in the movie making script writing department. Seriously, the whole Bill Murray scene in tact minus Bill Murray. Throw in Daniel Baldwin, Linnea Quigley, and as always Lloyd kaufman for an interesting and drama filled roll. Editing is better and the soundtrack is pretty funny, especially the Dan Baldwin hip hop. Just run to the hills for this one man.  Run for your life!!!!!!!!

So last but not least in this section of film retina penetration is HORROR HOTEL aka THE CITY OF THE DEAD with none other than Chris Lee. Our man John Moxy, many of you know his TV shows…. and I mean the TV shows he did. Look him up…….. You will be blown away. AAAWWWAAAAYYYY!!!!!!!!! Films like this were built on atmosphere and suspense. You all know of the Hammer films, and if you don’t there is something really wrong with ya. Fog, satanists, dreadful soundtracks and sounds, cults, B/Wand all the things that really creep oneself out, at least to me it does. A little slow story wise but it all fixes itself in the set department. It may seem a little dated to some but those of us who still tread heavy waters in the days or yore will and can surely respect a film of this caliber. I have found better copies of this film out there but I totally dig the VHS grain, especially on a movie like this where the whole movie bases itself in darkness.

Well there you have it. A nice little run of fun. I do this shit so you don’t have to. Until next time you fairy lovin’ nob gobblers. Outta here.
