Uncle Sam

July 9, 2022 // 0 Comments

A happy fourth of July to us all, dear Americans—no offense to any international readers. A day of independence filled with good barbecue, fireworks, and a garish plastering of red-white-and-blue as far as the eye can see. And of course, like any [...]

The Living Dead At Manchester Morgue

June 30, 2022 // 0 Comments

It is not every day that you come across a zombie movie predating Dawn Of The Dead. It’s also most certainly not every day that you’ll stumble across a zombie movie that seems to be arguably considered an elevation of the genre within that specific [...]

The Toolbox Murders

June 21, 2022 // 0 Comments

It was the break-out success of Tobe Hooper’s 1974 low-budget picture The Texas Chainsaw Massacre that helped form the horror genre as we know it today. That may seem like a slightly pompous blanket statement to take at face value, but I do want to [...]

Forgotten Gialli: Volume 4

April 27, 2022 // 0 Comments

Vinegar Syndrome’s “Forgotten Gialli” box sets have been one of my giallo guilty pleasures for the past few years. I would constantly keep my eyes out for a potentially new set to be announced, eager to get my hands on it. And late as I may be to [...]

The New York Ripper

July 8, 2019 // 0 Comments

If you’re a fan of Italo-horror, then there is no doubt that you may have heard of the name Lucio Fulci. Heeded by many as the “Italian Godfather of Gore”, the man was known for creating some of the most controversial “video-nasties” out there [...]

The Fifth Cord

June 24, 2019 // 0 Comments

Among the number of movies that begged to be reviewed here on DVD Review in recent months, as an avid Italo-horror fan, there’s been one title in particular that I’ve had my eye on for a while. Way back in February, Arrow Video has produced a brand [...]

Suspiria

March 14, 2018 // 0 Comments
