Exploitation in its finest form !
Ilsa ( Dyanne Thorne ) and her two lesbian guards-Satin and Velvet run a harem for depraved sheik ( Victor Alexander ) Of course women are tortured and abused in front of the audience ! This film is much more campier than " Ilsa-She Wolf of the SS " and not nearly as shocking . Still there are some torture scenes and a...

It's really strange that being a huge horror / gore fan I was never interested in " Phantasm " series . I haven't seen other " Phantasm " movies , but " Phantasm 2 " is excellent !

Disturbing and compelling .
Another disturbing documentary about the World Trade Center tragedy . It's really sad-I cried when I saw poor people jumping out from both Twin Towers . The film is full of emotions-there's sadness , pain and anger . Why in our world there's need for terrorism and death ? Why can't we live in peace all together ?

William Girdler's " Three on a Meathook " is obviously inspired by the Ed Gein case . It's a very bizarre tale of a twisted murder and cannibalism in the tradition of Tobe Hooper's " Texas Chain Saw Massacre " . There's plenty of nudity and cheesy gore , however the film is not as gory as the title suggests . Still the...

This film is amazing . It's loaded with extreme violence-thousands of bullets fly and the blood flows freely ! Again the action scenes are breathtaking and the violence is truly brutal-stabbings , impalings and head explosions . One of the best John Woo's films he ever created .

Depressing , disgusting , excellent !
Castle Freak is brilliant ! It's gory and downbeat film from Stuart Gordon ( " Re-Animator " , " From Beyond " ) - I love it ! Anyway this one has a cult fave Jeffrey Combs and a rather frumpy Barbara Crampton moving into a castle where a freak has been chained in a dungeon for many years . It kills a hooker brought ...

Jaw-droppingly powerful and truly disturbing Russian war drama .
Come and See has to be one of the most powerful war movies ever made . It left me emotionally drained . The film tells the story of 12-year-old Florya ( Alexi Kravchenko ) , whose desire is to join his countrymen in the battle against the fascists . His enthusiasm is written all over his face : in the opening scenes ...

Brilliant !
I am very surprised to see all of the negative complaints towards this film . Like " I Spit on Your Grave " or " I Stand Alone " , " Irreversible " is only rubbish to those who don't understand it , or don't want to understand it . Gaspar Noe tells us the story about love and revenge-a pregnant young woman ( outstandin...

Battle Royale is one of the most controversial and challenging movies ever made . The film is very gory and violent , but it's also witty , satirical and thought provoking .

Sam Firstenberg's " Ninja 3 : The Domination " mixes martial arts with " The Exorcist " like horror .
