Matthew was real proud of himself the instant before his death.  How he'd hacked the information and found out where one of Amazon.com's remote warehouse facilities were.  How he'd rented the large van under false ID, found the unmarked center, and broke in undetected.  Matthew pulled himself up so he could see into the boxes of the second shelf - and that's when the entire unit collapsed and caved inward.  Matthew fell backwards, and curled onto his side in a fetal position just before the debris fell over his body.  Not just boxes, but packed cases and crates and slats upon slats tumbled onto his body, along with the thick steel, warehouse shelving units that previously stood 30 feet tall.  Beams rained down upon Matthews skull - and ironically, the last thing he saw was what he had come for.  Unreleased DVDs piled around his head as the weight increased - titles like Throg and the yet-to-be-seen Three Extremes II.  These were his last sights as his skull was pressed, the bone of it cracking into several pieces, splitting down the middle beneath the skin of his scalp.  His brains pushed outward and filled in under his hair like a lump of chopmeat.  The vision in his eyes went white as his nerves burned out and the life left his body - the orbs tightly pressed within broken sockets, gorging black red with blood.


12 Days of Terror (2004)
86 minutes

Rated PG-13 for shark attacks
Starring Colin Egglesfield, Mark Dexter, Jenna Harrison
Directed by Jack Sholder 

All Movie Guide Plot Description:  A vicious shark terrorizes the New Jersey shore in this tale of terror at the beach starring Colin Egglesfield and John Rhys-Davies and based on the actual events that inspired Peter Benchley's Jaws. The year was 1916 and the citizens of New Jersey dared not step in the water for fear of meeting a grim fate in the jaws of a great white shark. For 12 days, the bloodthirsty beast would stalk the normally serine shores of New Jersey awaiting the next victim to tempt fate by taking a swim, and as the most sustained series of shark attacks in recorded history shook an entire community, the power of the perfect predator proved that humankind isn't always at the top of the food chain.

Day of the Animals (1977)
97 minutes

Not Rated
Starring Christopher George, Leslie Nielsen, Linda Day George
Directed by William Girdler 

There were a lot of nature-striking-back films in the 70's and 80's - Alligator, The Swarm, Earthquake - everything from Squirm to Prophecy to Empire of the Ants.  Amongst this onslaught of pretty cool horror films came Day of the Animals - which I personally caught on cable way back in the day, and later as an ABC movie of the week.  Something goes wrong, and like Maximum Overdrive, where machinery turned on humans, so does the local zoo and everything roaming free in Day of the Animals.  More specifically:  "The depletion of the earth's ozone layer causes animals above the altitude of 5000 feet to run amok, which is very unfortunate for a group of hikers who get dropped off up there by helicopter just before the quarantine is announced." ~ Amazon.com.  A younger Leslie Neilson (Naked Gun, Scary Movie 4) takes on a man-eating grizzly for instance.  Non-gory, TV-level horror fun.

Don't Go Near the Park (1981)
84 minutes

Rated R
Starring Aldo Ray, Meeno Peluce, Linnea Quigley
Directed by Lawrence D. Foldes 

All Movie Guide Plot Description:  Don't Go Near the Park begins in a cave 12,000 years ago, where an old crone with phony rubber hands curses her sinful children, Gar and Tre (Crackers Phinn, Barbara Monker). They will age ten years for every year of life and never die. To appear youthful, they must kill people by ripping their stomachs open and eating their guts. To end the curse, Gar must marry a woman and produce a virgin girl who will be sacrificed at age 16. The next segment follows Gar (now named Mark) as he hypnotizes his landlady (a young Linnea Quigley) into bearing him a child, Bondi. On her 16th birthday, Bondi is upset by her parents' fighting and runs away to Griffith Park, blowing up a van full of rapists along the way. In the park, supposedly cursed by the "demons of Los Feliz," Bondi is taken in by Patty, who is actually Tre in disguise. Patty lives in an abandoned ranch house with two other runaways. Cowboy (Chris Riley) is a handsome teen who shows Bondi his child-abuse scars and falls in love with her, while Nick is a sassy eight-year-old played by Voyagers' Meeno Peluce, first seen as he tries to fondle Bondi in her sleep. Aldo Ray plays a writer named Taft who tells Nick about the park's curse, leading the three kids to try an escape. They end up in a corpse-filled cave, where Mark tries to rape Bondi until Patty hits him on the head with a rock. The witchy siblings shoot lasers out of their eyes at each other, then Bondi turns into their mother and causes all the corpses to come alive, devouring them. Reverting to her normal form, Bondi helps Nick and Cowboy escape the cave, but rips Nick's stomach open on a playground slide in a predictable "shock ending." Director Lawrence D. Foldes and co-screenwriter Linwood Chase appear as two of the van rapists, and their fiery demise at least provides some measure of revenge for the audience.

Evils of the Night (1985)
90 minutes

Rated R
Starring Aldo Ray, Neville Brand, John Carradine
Directed by Mardi Rustam 

All Movie Guide Plot Description:  This uproariously bad sci-fi/horror oddity plays like a modern version of a cheesy '50s alien-invasion flick, only not as clever. The filmmakers deserve some credit for throwing everything but the kitchen sink into the plot (and perhaps even the sink's in there somewhere), which involves the diabolical plans of three silver-suited aliens, played by -- ready for this? -- John Carradine, Julie Newmar (TV's Catwoman) and Tina Louise (Ginger from Gilligan's Island), who hire a couple of drunken wrench jockeys (Neville Brand and Aldo Ray) to help them abduct a bunch of lame-brained teenage campers for use in the production of a youth-restoring serum. This allows for endless riffing on the Friday the 13th scenario, as over-sexed teens are stalked by ski-masked Brand and Ray. "B"-movie fans should be forewarned that this film's once-in-a-lifetime acting ensemble does virtually nothing to enhance the negligible entertainment value.

Grindhouse Classics (1972)
181 minutes

Not Rated
Starring Yaphet Kotto, William Sanderson, Joyce Van Patten 
Directed by Larry Cohen, Robert A. Endelson

Amazon.com Plot Description

BONE (1972):  Welcome to Beverly Hills, where upper-class white married couples like Bill and Bernadette (Andrew Duggan and Joyce Van Patten) enjoy their happy life of wealth! and privilege. But when a violently unstable black criminal (Yaphet Kotto of ALIEN) invades their home, each will be forced to explore their own nightmares of lies and desire where every perverse secret is exposed and nothing is ever really black and white. This is the daring, disturbing and still controversial directorial debut of one of the most audacious talents in modern American cinema. Oscar nominee Jeannie Berlin co-stars in this black comedy that could only come from the mind of maverick Writer/Producer/Director Larry Cohen (God Told Me To, It's Alive), now presented completely uncut, uncensored and loaded with fascinating Extras for the first time ever on DVD.

FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE (1977):  Some have only heard of it as the notorious gut-cruncher in the tradition of Last House on the Left and I Spit on Your Grave.  Others know it as one of the few movies to ever drive even the most jaded 42nd Street audiences into uncontrollable frenzy.  This is the story of three escaped convicts (lead by William Sanderson of Blade Runner as the sickest psycho redneck in cinema history) who take a middle-class Black family hostage for a relentless nightmare of racist humiliation, sexual violence and extreme vengeance.  No sleazehound who's seen it can ever forget Fight For Your Life!  Blue Underground presents this rarely seen shocker now fully restored from its original camera negative for an all-new look at one of the most disturbing and depraved exploitation films ever made!

-
trailer "Heat" (windows media) -
298 minutes

Not Rated
Starring Patti D'Arbanville, Joe Dallesandro, Sylvia Miles 
Directed by Paul Morrissey   

Amazon.com Plot Description:  An icon of the Andy Warhol Factory and one of the most famous figures of the late 1960s and 1970s, Joe Dallesandro shot to fame in this landmark trilogy of underground filmmaking from acclaimed director Paul Morrissey. Raw, charismatic, and unabashed, his performances anchor these unflinching and often hilarious looks at life on the streets where hustling, conning, shooting up, loving, and bickering make up every memorable day.

In Flesh (1968), Joe stars as a dim and sweet-natured hustler who journeys from one client to the next in a quirky odyssey that goes from the clutches of an amorous artist to a pair of beauties including a young Patti D'Arbanville.

In Trash (1970), Joe struggles to provide a living for his demanding girlfriend (Warhol favorite Holly Woodlawn), crossing back and forth between the gutter and the high life in a quest for happiness.

Then Joe hits Los Angeles as an unemployed former child star in Heat (1972), a fast and funny look at fleeting fame where an affair with fallen star Sylvia Miles (Midnight Cowboy) results in hilarious complications.

Now restored and remastered with all-new extras, these masterworks of true independent cinema burn brighter than ever in these sensational new special editions, with an exclusive fourth bonus disc of additional extras!

Deathdream/Uncle Sam (quicktime)
176 minutes

Rated R
Starring John Marley, William Smith, Bo Hopkins 
Directed by Bob Clark, William Lustig 

Amazon.com Plot Descriptions

DEATHDREAM (1974):  In this shattering variation of The Monkey's Paw, grief-stricken suburban parents (Academy Award nominess John Marley of The Godfather and Lynn Carlin of Faces) refuse to accept the news that their son Andy (Richard Backus) has been killed in Vietnam.  But when Andy returns home soon after, something may be horribly wrong: Andy is alive and well...or is he? Produced and directed by Bob Clark (Black Christmas) and written by Alan Ormsby (Deranged), Deathdream became one of the very first films to confront the domestic ravages of the Vietnam War.  More than thirty years later, it remains one of the most chilling horror films of all time.  Blue Underground is proud to present this acclaimed zombie shocker fully restored from the long-lost negative, as well as exclusive new extras that include featurettes and audio commentaries.

UNCLE SAM (1997):  It's Fourth of July Weekend, and the recently discovered corpse of Sgt. Sam Harper - killed by 'friendly fire'! during the first Gulf War - is returned to his all-American hometown.  But when Sam rises from the dead to punish the unpatriotic, only his young nephew and a bitter Korean War veteran (Soul icon Isaac Hayes of Shaft and South Park fame) can stop his red-blooded rampage. Draft dodgers, tax cheats, crooked politicians and flag-burners beware: Uncle Sam wants you...DEAD!  Timothy Bottoms (The Last Picture Show), Bo Hopkins (The Wild Bunch), William Smith (Fast Company), P.J. Soles (Halloween) and Oscar nominee Robert Forster (Jackie Brown) co-star in this zombie horror hit directed by William Lustig (Manaic, Relentless) and written by Larry Cohen (Its Alive, Phone Booth). Uncle Sam has been remastered from the original negative materials and loaded with extras that include an all-new, no-holds-barred audio commentary with Cohen and Lustig!

Starring Lon Chaney, Regina Carrol, Russ Tamblyn 
Directed by Al Adamson 

All Movie Guide Plot Description:  AKA "Dracula vs. Frankenstein" - A slapdash epic of bad filmmaking geared strictly toward drive-in audiences, Dracula vs. Frankenstein has gone on to achieve cult status thanks to its sheer ineptness and impressive cast. At an oceanside amusement park, Dr. Frankenstein (J. Carrol Naish) runs a house of horrors that serves as a cover for his more devious scientific experimentation -- work that requires the murderous deeds of his mute assistant Groton (Lon Chaney Jr.). After stealing the corpse of Frankenstein's monster, Dracula visits the doctor and makes him an offer he can't refuse: resurrect the monster so that Dracula can use the beast to carry out his plan to take over the world. At the same time, lounge singer Judith (Regina Carrol) arrives at the park against the advice of detective Martin (Jim Davis) to search for her missing sister. She is drugged in a bar and winds up in the care of kindly stud Mike (Anthony Eisley), who takes up the investigation with her. Meanwhile, Dr. Frankenstein and Dracula resurrect the monster and immediately send it to kill the doctor's old enemy (Forrest J. Ackerman). Judith and Mike encounter the monster and, after a narrow escape, they confront Dr. Frankenstein who is beheaded in the ensuing melee. Sgt. Martin arrives in time to kill Groton before he attacks Judith, but not before Dracula kills Mike and takes Judith captive. He ties her up in the lab and prepares to bite her, but the monster goes mad, leading to a ferocious battle.
