Who are some of your favorite visual, literary or performance artists? I guess some of my favorite literary artists would be those that have inspired my writing. Most of my

It was an oddly warm Black Friday here in Grand Rapids with temps almost reaching 60 degrees. The Pyramid Scheme was the setting for a night of Hip Hop as

“The Deadly Spawn” is now available to you in Blu-ray. You’re excited, aren’t you? Brought to you by those campy horror film heroes, MVD, “The Deadly Spawn” now looks even better than ever… with gore so vivid you’ll want to puke! This movie is about a group of campers who stumble upon a meteor and an evil alien creature. It’s a cult classic the binds the lines between horror

This movie comes from the producer of the cult classic film “The Deadly Spawn” (which I will also be reviewing momentarily). If you like gore, it’s got it. If you like creepy creatures, it’s got it. If you like horrifying death scenes, it’s got it. If you are a fan of B horror flicks and cult classics then you will find something to like about “Hell On Earth.” Think

This movie is an acquired taste and only certain people will have the stomach for it. I found it hard to watch myself, but it didn’t suck. The premise: A poetic hired gun. An old western setting. A brothel owner that needs to die. This movie is not for the squeamish. It contains sex, murder and abortion.

This movie is definitely not a cinematic masterpiece. The opening scene is a woman beating someone to death with a hammer (reminded me of an incident I had with a mouse on a glue trap once). Gruesome opening scene leading into some fairly gruesome acting. Not sure which was scarier, the movie itself or the crappy acting. House of the Damned is filmed in black & white. It not

Haunted Changi is a film about a group of independent filmmakers set out to make a movie/documentary about a haunted Changi Hospital in Singapore. Think Blair Witch and Paranormal Activity. I don’t buy the films premise that it is based on truth, but it is a great edge of your seat horror film that fans of the previously mentioned films will enjoy. I don’t want to say too much

Thank you again, MVD, for another stellar horror flick only a mother could love. MVD’s movies/DVDs are an acquired taste, and I acquire a good deal of them for review. In “My Stepdad’s A Freakin’ Vampire” teenager Rusty doesn’t like his stepdad. He makes this obvious through both words and actions. The story starts with his mom leaving for a business trip, leaving son and stepdad alone for a
