[Good Scenes In Bad Movies] The ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)’ Edition!
I thought the 2003 remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was serviceable. Neither as fun as Friday The 13th 2009 (sue me, I love that one) or as abysmal as A Nightmare On Elm Street 2010. The Wolfman sort of feels the same way. He doesn’t exactly like it, but he can’t outright hate it (even if it’s of course nowhere near as good as the original). Sometimes finding a saving grace in a film comes down to finding just one scene that really hits it out of the park. And that’s precisely the point The Wolfman (@TheWolfmanCometh – on the boards) aims to illustrate here in his column! READ MORE

Mondo Video Presents ‘Things’
Intervision, dedicated to releasing obscure genre gems, has teamed up with Mondo once again to release a limited edition VHS of the first Canadian shot-on-Super 8 gore flick, Things. The 1989 shocker is “the surreal saga of two friends who visit a remote cabin, only to discover a womb of monstrous horror that demands graphic dismemberment. It’s an inexplicable orgy of eye ripping, beer guzzling, boob baring, skull drilling, sandwich making, chain sawing, bad acting and post-sync dubbing.” It follows in the foot steps of Sledgehammer, which was also released on limited Edition VHS through Mondo Video back in May.
