Due to the launch of our Video Nasties Section, I've been flat out watching the movies banned in the UK in the 1980's. Not usually my thing, and to be honest most of the movies are pure cheese, but I have been pleasantly surprised by more movie than I expected.Definitely worth a watch are Blood Feas...

The new Horror Extreme site is up and (just about) running so it's time to get back into some serious blogging. I've watched a shit load of horror over the past few months... but I guess I'll have to watch them all again so I can write about them.
Highlights have definately been some Takashi Miike c...

Cannibal Holocaust is truly one very sick video nasty, it's a horrible and unnecessary movie, which is what makes it so good. When a horror movie leaves you with a feeling of disgust afterwards then the director has definitely done his job well!
The movie is based around some explorers that go searc...

I'd heard a lot about this movie, I knew it was a Troma production so I thought I knew what to expect... but I didn?t.

This was NOT your average zombie movie, the storyline was quite complex and the build up of suspense and the not-being-qui...

I'm not sure what to say about this movie, it was a bizarre British movie from the seventies (I think) about a paranoid writer in the middle of nowhere attempting to write a book. His previous book was a bestseller but he stole the manuscript from a friend who then committed suicide. He hires a dict...

I?ve just watched "Don't Look in the Basement" aka "The Forgotten" and I had to mention it now!. The whole movie was set in "The Stephens Sanitarium" which houses a number of mental people and a minimal staff. Each "mental" has their own particular affliction which makes for an interesting set of ch...

Tonight?s horror instalment is a seventies slasher flick called "The Toolbox Murders". I've heard that this was a highly disturbing cult movie but I was expecting something a bit cheesy as it was a 1978 horror movie but based on the other movies in the "cult horror UK video nasty" camp (such as "I S...
