Retro Slashers

From the forthcoming FRIDAY THE 13th (2009) KILLER CUT hitting DVD/Blu-Ray on June 16th, Jason’s face revealed! In this scene, it’s still kept in shadows and seen very sparingly.

And Retro Slashers totally called it.

I believe it was an act of mercy that the TERROR was dropped from the TRAIN, even if the reasons for de-titling the “remake” were to cash in on HOSTEL. Ironically, even if the film made it off the shelf anytime soon, torture-porn is so out of vogue now. Anyway. Here’s the trailer for the [...]

These Code Red titles flew so low they even missed my “Red Radar” – this past week saw the release of two EXPLOITATION DOUBLE FEATURES.

Not much to praise or critique at this point [...]

Fango posted that SORORITY ROW (2009) has received a “Hard R” by the MPAA. The film was previously assumed to be going the PG-13 route, inspired by the success of PROM NIGHT. I personally don’t get the allure of calling a film’s rating a “Hard R” – I mean, does anyone ever lamment they got [...]
