For anyone who still holds up Ed Wood as the worst director who ever lived, consider A Night to Dismember as a nomination for Doris Wishman. This largely incomprehensible horror film (her first feature in 20 years) features [**] star Samantha Fox in a rare "legitimate" role as a suspected psycho killer sprung from an insane asylum. Is it mere coincidence that the body count begins anew? The Queen of Exploitation adds mutilations, dismembered bodies, and buckets of gore to her trademark…

Starvation.What can you do when it all hits the fan?You can learn to be self-sufficient and survive without the system.**I've started to look at the world through apocalypse eyes.** So begins Neil Strauss's harrowing new book: his first full-length worksince the international bestseller The Game, and one of the most original-and provocative-narratives of the year.After the last few years…

A guy and his friend go to his brothers house to drink a ton of beer and end up having to fight some ant-like sharp-toothed creatures that were born of the brother's sickly wife. Every once and a while along comes an obscure bargain basement shot-on-video horror that's so utterly awful and inept it makes me giddy with delight and has me rolling on the floor in hysterics, this one takes the cake. It could be the fuzzy sound dubbing, it could be the constantly awful dialogue, maybe it's…

Neighbor is the kind of film that defenders of the so-called "torture-[**]" genre have been waiting for. It would be very easy to be dismissive of a film such as this because of all that have come before it, but "neighbor" requires a deeper analysis. First is the inclusion of character development. Whereas any previous entry in this genre have discarded or ignored any kind of depth in their characters, "neighbor" has gone out of its way to make three likable protagonists…

Put another log on the fire and snuggle up under the mistletoe with these delightful holiday novellas from Jon Jeffrey, Chris Kenry, William J. Mann, and Ben Tyler. From six-pack abs to extra-large love, a reason to believe or chance to get holidazed, these boys of the season aren't afraid to ask Santa to bring them everything they want for Christmas…and then some… He'll Be Mine By Christmas Morning by Jon Jeffrey As the acid-tongued editor of the wildly popular gay men's…

Stick around long enough, if you're a reader, and you'll get books that will drift from one pile of "too-be-read" books to another, then they'll get dumped into a box or bag and packed away only to be found years later. "The Midnight Hour" is such a book. It was published during the great horror boom of the eighties when some of today's writers like Richard Laymon, Ray Garton, Jack Ketchum, William Lee, Nancy Holder, Michael Paine, R. Patrick Gates, Melanie…

Below is my three star film review of filmmaker Jeremy Benson's fine horror entry: It's a business. The businessmen catch their prey holding them just long enough to peddle them to a middle man. And if the over-sexed, drunken animals live long enough, they get boxed up and shipped abroad by boat where they eventually become a plaything for God knows who. It's all business--an entrepreneurial enterprise representing the best and worst capitalism has to offer. The business of live animals.…
