The Last Drive-In | Joe Bob’s Vicious Vegas Valentine
Art by T.J. Denton (@TDenton_1138 on Twitter. Visit his store). Rather than a repeat visit to Heartbreak Trailer Park, a special couple of Mutants allowed their nuptials to be turned into a little bit of โderanged performance artโ courtesy of Joe Bob (resplendent in Elvis garb โ he was taking notes when we were at […]
Ben Nagy reviews ‘Triple Threat’: Fans of old-school Cannon flicks are gonna love this
The second furious flick weโre taking a look at here in Kung Fu-bruary is Triple Threat that got released in 2019 after a bunch of Chinese financiers said, โhey, we want to get in the movie business. Letโs get a mess of direct-to-video action flick stars and throw them in the jungle, like in a […]
Ben Nagy reviews “The Fists of Bruce Lee”: Way, Way Too Much Plot to Get in the Way of the Chopsocky
Before we get into Kung Fu-bruary proper, have to get a quick note of congratulations out to filmmaker Ricky Glore, the stand-up comedian who decided to do a microbudget campout slasher flick down in Cinci-tucky that cost less to make than the last time Joe Burrow treated all his offensive linemen to an all-you-can-eat lunch […]
Ben Nagy reviews ‘Devil’s Pass’: No snow monster to be found and no Devil, either
After the last Bigfoot-Abominable Snowman-type movie I watched, I promised everyone that Iโd go ahead and check out a better one because I couldnโt let the best movie I ever reviewed about an abominable snow beast be just one star. So I dove into the physical media dungeon in my basement and found a flick […]
Ben Nagy reviews ‘Guns Akimbo’: Guy famous for playing ‘Weird Al’ teams up with ‘Mayhem’ star for bulletpalooza
The Battle Royale flick gets John Wick-ified (Wick-eded?) AND live-streamed in Guns Akimbo, except the protagonist isnโt a stylish bringer of death who drives a muscle car and whose mere name incurs fear and trepidation among folks cause his dog got killed. Well, one of em isn’t. Nope. Here itโs Harry Potter. Or rather, Daniel […]
Ben Nagy reviews ‘Hell Baby’: โReno 911โ clan merges โItโs Aliveโ with โRosemaryโs Baby’
You know, if the folks who did The Omen back in the 1970s had the mindset of folks today, they could have had themselves a stealth Satanic franchise linking two of the three greatest Catholic horror flicks ever made had they tacked on one tiny scene, maybe two lines of dialogue, at the front of […]
Ben Nagy reviews ‘The Dead Hate the Living!’: Turn-o-the-century Italian horror homage went straight to video
Thereโs kind of a weird Twilight Zone from the mid-1990s to the introduction of Blu-ray/advent of streaming where thereโd be a bunch of flicks that would go straight to video and be only available at video stores either through VHS or later, direct to DVD. At this time, cable TV was starting to morph into […]
Ben Nagy reviews ’13 Slays Till X-mas’: Barflies tell holiday horror vignettes, then get swatted
As this yearโs holiday review, I checked out 13 Slays Till Christmas, an anthology of a bunch of short films preceded by a fake trailer, all Christmas-related. Unlike the second feature shown by JB and Darcy on the Ghoultide Get-Together, this one took the conventional anthology route with a framing story and then a vignette and […]
Joe Bob’s Ghoultide Get-Together
Art by T.J. Denton (@TDenton_1138 on Twitter and https://www.etsy.com/shop/DorkFairProductions?) An all-time record of 24 things up for auction and a couple of Santa-oriented flicks helped make the latest holiday special a quite memorable outing for the crew on the Last Drive-In, and weโre hoping that the returns for the four worthy charities surpass the generosity […]
Ben Nagy reviews โAbominableโ: Heโs done Bigfoot (figuratively), now hereโs a Yeti flick from 2020
Not gonna get into what the difference is between the Yeti and Bigfoot is because I really had a tough time explaining to my wife that you canโt just go calling Sasquatch the Abominable Snowman a year or two back. And then she forgets that and then about every three months or so I have […]
