Video Nasties – The Expert Poll [Severin Films]
As we continue to restore and release Video Nasties as part of our mission statement, it often frustrates us to see so much of the coverage around the phenomenon being reported by those with minimal knowledge of the situation. We decided to conduct our own poll amongst true Nasty experts to bury all the other listicles and copy/paste junk in a deep, dark grave.

Invaluable – The Joys and Sorrows of the Monster Kid Life [Schlockmania]
The original version of The Evil Dead became an instant cause celebre for Fangoria-reading horror fans because it delivered everything you could want from a low-budget horror flick: feverish style, unpredictable and dangerous shocks, a pitch-black streak of weirdo humor and, naturally, gruesome special effects by the bucketful. There was a raw "let's put on a show" appeal to it yet it was surprisingly accomplished in its visual style and the array of special effects it incorporated - not just gore and monster makeup but even stop-motion animation.

Mad Doctor of Blood Island (1969) Review [Girls, Guns and Ghouls]
I've always enjoyed a good Filipino horror / science fiction / action film. Mad Doctor of Blood Island fits the bill in almost every respect. You've got smatterings of gore, nudity, violence and action for your viewing pleasure, and the directors make sure they leave it all on the table. Co-director with Gerardo de Leon, Eddie Romero has a respectable body of work in all manner of genres, and he's also appeared in these pages before. Brides of Blood is a personal favorite of mine, and he's also produced titles such as Black Mama, White Mama and Beast of the Yellow Night. All worthy viewing experiences for lovers of oddball films. Mad Doctor is actually a sequel of sorts to Brides of Blood, taking place on the same island (I think) and is followed by a direct sequel which I haven't seen yet, Beast of Blood. You start to get the impression that ‘Blood' and ‘Beast' are words that Romero likes to use in his titles!

Textploitation – Essential Books on B-Movies and Cult Films [Grindhouse Database]
"Exploitation Films", "B-Movies", "Cult Classics", "Grindhouse Cinema" call them what you want but for those of us who love them, the slang terms don't really matter. What does matter is that they are examples of some of the most colorful, wild, crazy, no holds barred kinds of cinema ever made. From the early roadshow days when sex and drugs were the big taboos, to the 50s and 60s where sci-fi and weird horror invaded drive-in screens through to the 1970s and 80s when kung fu, blaxploitation and more shocking cinema became the norm for grindhouse crowds, these movies undoubtedly made their mark on pop culture. It's undeniable, no matter what people say as a negative about them, there is something extremely powerful and exciting about seeing movies that don't play by the standard rules and give viewers things they simply won't get in mainstream fare. For all you voracious readers out there we've put together a guide to great reads that we think cover a nice variety of classic-international B-movie and cult cinema history. So when you're not lost in these movies, try picking up one, two or all of the chosen titles for your home book shelf. More titles will be added as we find them.

Zombie Short Story – Something You Oughta Know [Worlds of Pain]
At a hundred miles an hour, Zeke Patterson felt alive and free. Now that the dead reigned, he was done with 11 to 7 shifts. He was done with spending his entire day down in the pit at the oil change place. Civilization had crumbled and the old rules that held him back were gone. He didn't have to put up with women who were too stuck up to go out with an oil change mechanic. In this new world, sex really was free with a rifle. Zeke grinned from ear to ear. He had shown those office women a thing or two on his way out of Atlanta.

Social media, and artificially inflated "engagement" are on track to become a driving factor behind Hollywood decision making in the worst way possible.
