A small but sturdy selection of horror DVDs hit the market on Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008, and they include…
Bachelor Party in the Bungalow of the Damned (2008)
Directed by Brian Thompson
Wow, it sounds almost like a Satanic version of the classic Tom Hanks film Bachelor Party, except I’m sure it won’t be nearly as funny or horrific. The story follows Sammy, a kid who has come across a genuine bungalow in the Hamptons so decides to throw the ultimate bachelor party for his friend. The strippers show up, but so does his friends girlfriend and pretty soon all hell has quite literally broken loose. Buy it here!
The Gleam (2006)
Directed by Sri Rang
Young actors will really do anything for money, up to an including feeding live humans to mad scientists. Young Max is one of those actors, just trying to make his way through the world, and the mad scientist is just trying to bring the dead back to life. Max agrees to bring the doctor some human test subjects, including the husband of a rich woman the doctor’s had his eyes on. Madness soon follows. Or something. To be honest the plot outline didn’t make a helluva lot of sense, but it sounds kinda cool. Buy it here!
The Morgue (2008)
Directed by Gerson Sanginitto & Halder Gomes
Someone out there really doesn’t want to sell this movie… just go read the synopsis on the film’s Amazon page and you’ll see what I mean. Terrible. It think, however, that it’s about six strangers, trapped between this world and the afterlife, who gather together at a local morgue to try and make sense of their new-found predicament. Apparently there is a twist in this movie is astonishing, so please be sure you’re read for it when it comes. Don’t want anyone getting hurt. Buy it here!
Skeleton Key 2 (2008)
Directed by John Johnson
Sorry if this is a bit vague, but there’s not a lot of info out there about it. I can tell you it’s not a sequel to the Kate Hudson ghost movie from 2005, though. Other than that the only things I could glean about Skeleton Key 2 is that it takes place in Nilbog (doubtful the same one from Troll 2, but who knows), has blood, boobs and musical numbers, and is probably just barely worth the amount of time it took me to type all this out, which wasn’t very long. Oh, and the subtitle for it I’ve found in some places is 667: The Neighbor of the Beast. How cute. Buy it here!
Supernatural: The Complete 3rd Season
Directed by Various
The third season of the wildly popular show that the more I see from, the more I realize I should really just sit down and watch it but man, three seasons is a lot of TV to catch up on. The brothers continue their travels, fighting all manner of nasty beasties in this season including evil Santas and all seven deadly sins, and featuring an homage or two to movies like Assault on Precinct 13. Sounds cool enough for me! Check out our “>Supernatral Season 3 DVD review for more! Buy it here!
Watch Me (2008)
Directed by Melanie Ansley
How can e-mail kill you? Sure, spam is pretty bad these days, but is it really enough to make you dead? For the characters in Watch Me, it’s their own stupidity that does it, opening an attachment sent from someone they don’t know. As soon as they open it, brutal murder follows. Such a mess. One girl, a film student of course, watches as her friends are brutally slain one by one and slowly figures out that this mysterious e-mail has something to do with it. Her only hope lies in an underground pornography dealer. Of course. Buy it here!
