The world of horror movies is renowned for numerous independent productions bringing the director's own style of splatter to the abundance of horror fans on the planet today. More often than not the freedom of independent movie making has allowed the horror director to express their vision as they truly intended and makes the overall horror movie experience a grittier and more in-your-face work of art, usually with buckets of blood and no fear of taboos.
Often low-budget and often poorly acted, the independent horror movie has a charm that is often missing from the more commercial horror extravaganzas, so to expose these hidden gems to those who will truly appreciate the art form, Horror Extreme has created the Independent Movie Section of the site where we will be reviewing independent horror from around the world.

That would be an excep...

When watching and reviewing indie genre films, I've often found myself inclined to be pretty charitable. I know how hard it is to get films written and made, and to an extent, I take this into consideration. But that tolerance can only be taken so far - as a film fan, I want to get something out of ...

It's straight in with a gut-punch of visceral nastiness with Pig, the latest film from British director Adam Mason (Broken, The Devil's Chair, Blood River). A woman, terrified and covered in blood, flees along a deserted highway - where's she's intercepted by a man we'll come to know only as "Daddy"...

A mixture of dwarves, hot chicks, deformed rednecks, Jesus freaks and Bianca Barnett's boobs is a recipe that belongs in God's DVD cookbook, but the combination of the ingredients only is not enough as time and care need to go into the preparation of said ingredients for an outstanding straight-to-D...

We thought it would be rude to not make our first independent horror feature about Troma Entertainment, the greatest independent production company on the planet and the reason that we have witnessed some of the most outrageous horror movies ever to be conceived. Troma is the lovechild of Lloyd Kauf...
