TIDELAND
A Terry Gilliam feature that showcases this vital talent at his free-wheeling best
THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE
Truthfully, not a whole lot remains to be written about THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, certainly one of the most iconic genre films of all time
THE TESTIMONY OF RANDOLPH CARTER
This 53-minute video production from the late eighties is notable as one of the first of a type of film that has become extremely popular in recent years: an amateur H.P. Lovecraft adaptation
TEETH
Solid (if minor) comedy-horror that takes the myth of the Vagina dentata (toothed vagina) and creates something unique and enjoyable
THE DIVIDING HOUR
An interesting relic from the digital revolution of the late 90’s/early 00’s
THE DREAM-QUEST OF UNKNOWN KADATH
A primitive but impressive animated rendering of H.P. Lovecraft’s surreal novel THE DREAM-QUEST OF UKNOWN KADATH that captures the dreamy ambiance of the text with uncanny fidelity
THE ROOST
This indie horror fest went largely unseen during its brief 2005 theatrical release, but is finding an appreciative audience on DVD
ROOM
Give this no-budgeter a try: it’s frustrating and inconclusive, but also brilliantly filmed and arrestingly weird
RIVER’S EDGE
A good film, but overrated, RIVER’S EDGE, loosely based on a true story, is one of the most popular of the teens-from-Hell films of the eighties, and features quite a few then-upcoming stars
RIGHT AT YOUR DOOR
Let’s hope this bleak and alarming film, about terrorists who cripple L.A. by detonating “dirty bombs,” is far-fetched scaremongering—because if not then we’d best head for the fallout shelters ASAP!
