Horror In Your House – January 16, 2007
By: Tex Massacre
Cannibal Campout: Camp Motion Pictures
Desperate to survive, a deranged band of man-eating maniacs honor a deathbed promise to dearly departed mother never to eat junk food again. Instead, they work up frenzied appetites that will only be satisfied by the taste of young flesh.
Director Jon McBride’s 1980’s microbudget splatter-fest is a testament to what a group of friends can do on the weekends with an old VHS camcorder and a lot of fake blood.
The World's First EVER Serial Killer, Superhero, Rock 'n' Roll, Zombie, Road Movie and Romance film.
Co-creators Caleb Emerson and Haig Demarjian cut their teeth under the filmmaker acumen of Lloyd Kaufman’s Troma studios, and their debut feature is proof positive that the apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree. Still the love these guys show low budget filmmaking is nothing if not criminally infectious.
The Grim Reaper (2006): Lionsgate
Death comes for us all, but after surviving a car crash that should have taken her life, Rachel Wilson finds herself stalked by the Grim Reaper. Supposedly, for her own protection, Rachel is locked up in a secure mental health facility. But it's not long before she discovers that her incarceration in the old hospital was no coincidence, surrounded by six other "patients" who, themselves, have cheated death. Over the course of the night they will have to face their worst fears, their own mortality, and Death himself.
Another week and another Lionsgate release from Michael Feifer, who managed to get 3 other films on shelves last year (A Dead Calling, The Graveyard and The Butcher). And like Feifer’s last three, this plotline is hardly screaming originality. Let’s all hope his upcoming Kane Hodder cast Ed Gein flick has more to offer than the last three did.
The Mummy Returns (HD-DVD): Universal
The mummified body of Imhotep is shipped to a museum in London, where he once again wakes and begins his campaign of rage and terror.
Call it Indiana Jones by any other name; The Mummy films are raucously good entertainment any night of the week.
The Red Skulls: Splatter Rampage/Tempe
The Red Skulls have been the dominant street gang in Bronston for years... but everything changes one night when gang leader Uri sees his best friend hacked to pieces by a rival group. He decides to get out of town before he shares his friend's fate. But there's a traitor in the ranks...one who has planted a lethal trap for his comrades. Uri is about to find out the only thing more dangerous than a backstabbing street gang is a mutated, cannibalistic street gang!
The crew behind the “shot for pennies” films Midnight Skater and Splatter Rampage Wrestling return with a decidedly more ambitious project. With special effects provided by the very bloody Ricky Lee Leonard, this one could be the sleeper film of the week.
After an outbreak in a top-secret facility, Umbrella Corp. ponders covering up their mistakes by releasing the deadly Nemesis to eliminate survivors in Raccoon City.
Alice is back and if you thought ingénue Milla Jovovich looked good in standard definition just image her at 1080 lines of resolution. Wow! For you ladies this—along with The Mummy Returns—means a double dose of Oded Fehr in HD!
On one last road trip before they're sent to serve in Vietnam, two and their girlfriends get into an accident that calls their local sheriff to the scene. Thus begins a terrifying experience where the teens are taken to a secluded house of horrors, where a young, would-be killer is being nurtured.
R. Lee Ermey once again steals the show as the “shit-house-rat” patriarch of a clan of cannibalistic Texans. They don’t make nihilism any bleaker than this.
Woodchipper Massacre: Camp Motion Pictures
It’s The Brady Kids meets the Texas Chainsaw Massacre in this heartwarming, stomach-churning tale of a not so typical American family that unexpectedly finds itself caught up in a web of death, deceit and dismemberment.
Jon McBride’s follow-up to Cannibal Campout didn’t cost a whole helluva lot more to make, but it added immeasurably onto the camp value of the first film. Surprisingly short in supply on the sticky stuff (perhaps they ran out of Karo after “Cannibal”), it’s still worth a shot if only for the sake of nostalgia.
