Do you a) steer clear, eat some popcorn and keep a low profile, b) observe Buddhist meditation techniques amid a garage full of gay porn, or c) throw a party, go crazy and await imminent death at the hands of a rather dubious and somewhat annoyed wood-chopping-instrument enthusiast? Suffice to say, the folk of Bloodnight chose the latter option. Danielle Harris, of Halloween and Halloween II fame continues her domination of the slasher genre in this latest dollop of horror Americana. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vb4jcoQ7G-Vg Breath of Hate (18) Run Time: 90 mins Director: Sean Cain Cast: Ezra Buzzington, Jason Mewes, Lauren Walsh, Jack Forcinito, Monique Parent One last job and Love is out of the erotic escort business. Unfortunately, that final job is for a trio of escaped mental patients who are looking to change the world. One victim at a time. Lauren Walsh stars in director Sean (Someone’s Knocking at the Door) Cain’s latest opus of cinematic debauchery. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?veb9-OREYhS0 Air Terjun Pengatin (18) Run Time: 100 mins Director: Rizal Mantovani Cast: Tamara Blezinski, Marcel Chandrawinata, Tyas Mirasih, Andrew Roxburgh, Kieran Sidhu, Navy Rizky Tavania The Asian territories have long held a deserved reputation for horror of the most subtle, psychological, and nuanced persuasions. Air Terjun Pengatin isn’t one of them. In fact a serious documentary drama investigating the issue of multi-culturalism, by visualising the conflicts of 21st century persons encountering jungle dwelling savages and the results of said encounters with much bikini orientated un-feminisms along the way (plus various assorted severed heads). Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vQ_gi1usEWbI Hyenas (18) Run Time: 92 mins Director: Eric Weston Cast: Costas Mandylor, Joshua Alba, Christa Campbell, Rudolf Martin, Meshach Taylor, Christina Murphy Originally rumoured to be a David Attenborough documentary on the lives of the modern urban hyena. In fact an über-exploitative spin on werewolf lore with liberal dashes of nudity, ridiculous plotting, and more than occasional scenes of ultra violence and cheeses. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vl8xxnu7EpHQ The Violent Kind (18) Run Time: 90 mins Director: The Butcher Brothers Cast: Cory Knauf, Taylor Cole, Bret Roberts, Christina Prousalis, Tiffany Shepis, Nick Tagas From the directorial duo known affectionately as ‘The Butcher Brothers’, regular scream queen Tiffany Shepis maintains her reign over all she surveys in this cunning combination of biker movie, possession flick, Twin Peaks-esque surrealism and… well an ending that will leave people scratching their heads to such a degree that record numbers of baldness may well be occurring in the Prince Charles auditorium following this latest U.K. premier. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vyBuH1GyHRZo Pearlblossom (aka Lifeblood) (18) Run Time: Ron Carlson Director: 82 mins Cast: Sophie Monk, Anya Lahiri, Scout Taylor-Compton, Justin Shilton, Patrick Renna There are lesbians. There are vampires. There are midgets. Nuff said. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vSfSEsW5twVs Cyrus: Mind of a Killer (18) Run Time: 90 mins Director: Mark Vadik Cast: Brian Krause, Danielle Harris, Lance Henriksen, Wylie Allen, Patricia Belcher, Tiffany Shepis The second Danielle Harris film of the Gorezone International Film Festival , this time with a glorious abundance of fellow genre legend Lance Henricksen! How does a serial killer become a serial killer? All budding Sutcliffe’s should definitely check out Cyrus: Mind of a Killer for a step by step instruction manual on how to deteriorate your own psyche into one that comparatively makes Adolf Hitler’s seem like that of Mahatma Gandhi. A disturbing, realistic insight into a deranged mind with nay a happy, skipping bunny in sight. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vAlhTlEAkOVg New Terminal Hotel (18) Run Time: 98 mins Director: B.C. Furtney Cast: Stephen Geoffreys, Tiffany Shepis, Ezra Buzzington, Corey Haim, James Grabowski Don Malek (Stephen Geoffreys) isn't the usual tenant found in the skid row hotels of downtown L.A. Grief-stricken since the murder of his fiancée Katherin, the successful screenwriter-turned murderous vigilante is bent on revenge against studio head Stanley Glissberg, the man cleared of murder charges in Katherin's death. Holed-up in a cheap hotel room to write, Don calls in a favour from a neighbour, and in doing so, uncovers despicable abuses down the hall... hookers, drugs, debauchery, and murder all mean one thing - that the tenants of the New Terminal Hotel are about to check into a vortex of revenge, madness and murder. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vK7yoN28Majg Darfur (18) Run Time: 98 mins Director: Uwe Boll Cast: Edward Furlong, Billy Zane, Kristanna Loken, David O'Hara, Matt Frewer Deutschland’s chief courtesan of controversy Uwe Boll delivers his (arguably) first serious movie about the 2003 massacre in the region of Darfur. A dark, disturbing, documentary style realisation of the horrors of which human beings are more than capable. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v3fSjQEXzIXI Devil’s Playground (18) Run Time: 100 mins Director: Mark McQueen Cast: Jaime Murray, Danny Dyer, Sean Pertwee, Colin Salmon, MyAnna Buring Danny Dyer stars in thisglorious 28 Weeks Later-style dramatisation of the question ‘what happens in the U.K. when people get infected with a virus that sends them mildly doolally?’ The answer, it would appear, is ‘blood, lots of blood’. Devil’s Playground is the latest foray into the grand tradition of contemporary British horror, also starring other Brit-horror regulars Jaime Murray and Sean Pertwee, sure to please those eager for gratuity on the action and violence side of things. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vn518iLqRekM Groupie (18) Run Time: 90 mins Director: Mark McQueen Cast: Taryn Manning, Hal Ozsan, Eric Roberts, Betsy Rue, Mitch Ryan What’s the most appealing part of rock ‘n’ roll? The thundering bass? The screaming falsetto? The ‘wake the dead’ guitar shredding? A musicians answer would be ‘yes’ to all of those. However, for those of sleazier disposition the answer is more coital in nature: ‘groupies’. The groupie in Groupie however is less Pamela Des Barres, more Glen Close ala Fatal Attraction. From the director of everyone’s favourite 80’s cheese fest Commando comes a painfully cautionary tale of rock ‘n’ roll decadence gone wrong. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vrJK_UDZVCEQ Dhamer Vs Gacy (18) Run Time: 90 mins Director: Ford Austin Cast: Ford Austin, Art LaFleur, Randal Malone, Ethan Phillips, Harland Williams We’ve had Freddy vs Jason, we’ve had Komodo vs Cobra, we’ve had Megashark vs Giant Octopus, but up till now no one has ever satisfactorily answered the questions ‘if Jeffrey Dhamer and John Wayne Gacy had a fight, who would win?’ Fortunately, for those who’ve wasted many a long night pondering over such fiendish thought processes, Dhamer vs Gacy should satisfactorily and humorously answer their morally-questionable queries. With cameo’s from Sleepaway Camp’s Felissa Rose, Debbie Rochon, and Steven Adler of Guns N’ Roses and excessive amounts of heroin fame. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vH9u2Bn0bybM The Prometheus Project (18) Run Time: 100 mins Director: Sean Tretta Cast: Louis Mandylor, Ed Lauter, Tiffany Shepis, Elizabeth Barnes, Kristina Wayborn, Elizabeth's Mother, Scott Anthony Leet A modern re-imagining of Mary Shelley’s infamous novel Frankenstein, The Prometheus Project explores the dark implications of illegal stem cell research. A group of scientists discover a cell anomaly that has the potential to regenerate dead tissue. Unable to conduct legal human trials, the researchers turn to corpses to test their serum. The results are gory. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?vmqjxJzEgnT8 Why wait? Point your browser now to our shop and get them tickets!
