To celebrate the New Year, here’s a motivational image from @RobynGoodfellow@mastodon.murkworks.net. (idk how to cross-post from mastodon, but it was originally at: https://mastodon.murkworks.net/@RobynGoodfellow/115815990056370911 )
The new 4K restoration of Stuart Gordon’s legendary Re-Animator is a must for fans, with the film itself in great condition and hours’ worth of high quality extras. All the main players are represented here and although certain subjects naturally come up again and again, there’s very little repetition.
Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam is a 1985 American science fiction comedy film starring Jim Varney. It was written and directed by John Cherry. It is the first film to feature the Ernest P. Worrell character, but it has a slightly darker tone than his later films. It was shot in Fall Creek Falls State Park, Boxwell Scout Reservation, and Nashville, Tennessee.
For the #KungFuSat watch party on Mastodon, it’s family action oeuvre A Karate Christmas Miracle, with appearances from Martin Kove (The Karate Kid) and Eric Roberts, the man who does hundreds of films by turning his entire career into a glorified Cameo account. Oh, and by “family”, I mean the Del Vecchio family, who have given us other great films such as Rock Story (with Eric Roberts), The Savant (with Eric Roberts) and Scavenger Killers (with… Eric Roberts!)
Finally caught this in VCR Party last night, in glorious VHS quality & luxuriant Owncast Blockyscope!

‘The control room buttons were upside-down ice-cube trays, one space suit had a dish-drying rack on it – and the special effects guy wrote the theme tune lyrics’

Subversive to the nth degree, Troma Entertainment has made a name for itself by gleefully exposing filmgoers to all manner of gory, lewd and, above all, silly merriment since 1974, and the company has carried on with reckless – some would even say tasteless – abandon throughout the subsequent decades to cement its status as the forerunner in shlocktastic offerings that shock the masses and delight the company’s loyal followers.

As special effects-driven horror and sci-fi cinema dominated the global box office in the 1970s, Hong Kong’s mightiest film studio Shaw Brothers not only followed suit but took things one step beyond!
I think it’s safe to say here in 2025 that AI is here to stay. AI, CGI, green screen, blue screen, mocap…all of these tools can make for some pretty impressive characters, creatures, and exciting scenes in movies, but at the end of the day, does anything ever really top the physical makeups and costumes that turn actors into monsters or victims? Or the painstaking stop-motion effects of Ray Harryhausen, Willis O’Brien, and those they influenced?
Alien invaders plan to conquer our world by dropping a radio-controlled monster that will expand to gigantic size upon entering Earth’s atmosphere and feed on humanity… and all on Ahn-hee’s wedding day!
Bruce Campbell and Robert Kurtzman announce the death of their good friend Scott Spiegel, co-writer of Evil Dead II, director of From Dusk Til Dawn 2, and the most incompetent zombie hunter ever in The Dead Next Door (previously on BMB).
