Angels’ Revenge, aka Angels’ Brigade, is a late-70s exploitation film that fails at both being exploitation and being a film. That’s not to say the sleezy exploitative intent behind it isn’t entirely ...

It's more Mystery Science Theater 3000 from the Sci-Fi channel era of cast & crew. I'm unabashedly a giant fan of the franchise, and my objectivity is completely out the window here, but it's like Mik...

A group of biology students head to the Florida Everglades for a holiday, but instead of fun in the sun, they run into trouble with a mutated, bloodthirsty, and quite deadly jellyfish-man-monster.

This is one of those reviews that comes with a caveat. I watched the Roger Corman American localized “The Sword and the Dragon” version of “Ilya Muromets”, not "Ilya Muromets" itself. So I’m way down ...

Racket Girls aka The Bond Pick-Up is a film that feels like filler custom-made to fill out the second half of a double feature and/or a movie meant for grindhouse showings. What it doesn’t feel like i...

When a ghost and a “vampire” in an ape mask love each other very much… That’s how you get Robo Vampire… I think… Honestly, the film description on Letterboxd is far far more coherent than the actual f...
