SPIKE OF LOVE
A cult movie in search of a cult, this Canadian made outrage plays like MARAT/SADE reconfigured as a nineties black comedy, being an unrestrained blast of insanity with nearly every imaginable perversion
SPIDER BABY
Time hasn’t been kind to this loveable 1964 oddity, but it remains a memorable film with unforgettable performances
SERIES 7
Perhaps the ultimate satire on America’s reality TV craze, SERIES 7: THE CONTENDERS, about a reality program whose participants must kill each other in order to advance, is funny, disturbing and far more insightful than most of us would feel comfortable admitting
SERIAL MOM
In my view John Waters’ best film, a funny and subversive comedy about serial killer worship starring a never-better Kathleen Turner
SAVE THE GREEN PLANET
From Korea, a horror-sci fi-comedy that’s gross, funny and outrageous
SANTA’S SLAY
This Canadian-lensed Christmas-themed splatter comedy from 2005 clearly wanted to be the BAD SANTA of its day…but wasn’t
KILLER NERD
Unlike many movies these days, KILLER NERD turns out to be pretty much exactly what you’d expect
AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON
This werewolf classic, from writer/director John Landis, remains a groundbreaking combination of comedy and balls-out horror
AMERICAN PSYCHO (Film)
Although it wowed many mainstream critics, this lukewarm ‘00 adaptation of Brett Easton Ellis’ infamous novel is a dreary and affected slog
PUSS BUCKET
An interesting relic from the glory days of Film Threat Video, who back in the early 1990s put out some truly vital underground films
