2001 Maniacs (2005)

Tim Sullivan

The promises of T&A and loads of gore were delivered. Added with the campy humor, Maniacs ends up as a fun an entertaining no-brainer, gore-filled ride that horror fans shouldn't miss. Check this out!

2001 Maniacs: Field of Screams (2010)

Tim Sullivan

A bad movie and even more horrible sequel -- from the script, acting, audio, and directing, this is just an all around bad film. The comedy falls flat, but the movie itself still manages to be funny due to the...

A Fantastic Fear of Everything

Awaiting Release

English

Crispian Mills, Chris Hopewell

Simon Pegg plays Jack, a children's author turned crime novelist whose detailed research into the lives of Victorian serial killers has turned him into a paranoid wreck, persecuted by the irrational fear of being...

All About Evil (2010)

Joshua Grannell

With its perfectly over the top performances and sheer bloody quirkiness, All About Evil delivered a sick and twisted little bright spot to the hot and cold year of horror that was 2010. If you were one of those kids that...

Army of Darkness (1993)

Sam Raimi

If you enjoyed the previous two films then you'll defintely enjoy this one.

Attack the Block (2011)

Joe Cornish

Attack the Block is a fun ride from the start, delivering a successful teen-driven comedic creature feature that isn't shy in displaying some unexpected deaths and a satisfying amount of blood and guts. Definitely worth...

Basket Case (1982)

Frank Henenlotter

Good cult-classic horror film. Lot of weird stuff going on. Cheap ass graphics that are fun to laugh it. Check this film out.

Basket Case 2 (1990)

Frank Henenlotter

Doesn't live up to the first movie, but is still interesting. Many plot-holes, but the effects were an improvement. Check this out if you want, but don't expect it to be much like the original.

Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (2006)

Scott Glosserman

Creative, informative, funny, and smart; the film shows how a little low-budget mockumentary can succeed where big-budget genre films failed. Behind the Mask is an interesting and comedic look behind a beloved sub-genre that...

Bio-Zombie (1998)

Wilson Yip

Basically this film had some cool moments here and there and delivered a lot of good comedy. If you're looking for a good zombie film though, I don't really recommend this. If you want something silly you should...

Blood Diner (1987)

Jackie Kong

Good cheesy 80s horror film. Lots of nice gore and funny scenes. Check this movie out.

Blood on the Highway (2008)

Barak Epstein and Blair Rowan

Blood on the Highway is a very entertaining indie flick. While it greatly lacks in the horror department it makes up for it in comedy and splatter. Fans of Lloyd Kaufman's work will be fans of this movie. So when Blood...

Botched (2007)

Kit Ryan

A fun, over-the-top and gore-filled horror comedy that not only has comedic elements that works, but fun characters that you can root for as well. Worth a look.

Brain Damage (1988)

Frank Henlotter

Brain Damage is a good film that falls a little short. What we have is a pretty good idea supported by slick gore and at times punchy dialogue. Sadly outside of the gory humor the rest of the film isn't consistent. The...

BubbaHo-Tep (2002)

Don Coscarelli

A decent flick, but not enough goes on through most of it, which led me to give it a 6-rating. Despite that, it's worth a look if you're a Bruce fan or if you wanna check a cheesy horror flick with some funny...

Carpe Demon: Adventures of a Demon-Hunting Soccer Mom

In Development

English

André Øvredal

Revolves around a suburban housewife, who is tasked with ridding her town of demons.

Chillerama (2011)

Adam Green, Joe Lynch, Adam Rifkin, Tim Sullivan

Chillerama is an interesting and somewhat successful attempt at bringing back the old school look and feel of the cheesy drive-in movie. But the anthology itself is regrettably made up of one bad story and one mediocre one,...

Club Dread (2004)

Jay Chandrasekhar

A disappointing horror spoof. The funny moments are few and far apart, so we're really just left with an incredibly cliched slasher flick. It does manage to have hot chicks, and decent gore and blood, but that's...

Dance of the Dead (2008)

Gregg Bishop

Despite some plot-holes, Dance of the Dead turned out to be a surprisingly good zombedy. The zombies and gore is decent, and the characters are fun and interesting. Worth a check if you're looking for a simple low-...

Dead Heat (1988)

Mark Goldblatt

An incredibly cheesy zombie flick. Good effects, gore, and a lot of funny scenes. Worth a look if you want something fun that doesn't cause a lot of thinking.

Dead Snow (2009)

Tommy Wirkola

A film with a lot of lost potential. Strip away the snow setting and Nazi zombies and you're given a pretty standard zombie flick. Although branded a horror comedy, there's actually very little comedy and what it...

Demon Knight (1995)

Ernest R. Dickerson

One of the best demon horror movies ever made (in my opinion). Lots of gore and sweet-lookin' demons. Definitely worth a check.

Doghouse (2009)

Jake West

Although the movie has received a lot of mixed responses from viewers, I personally enjoyed it for the most part. It kept me entertained, fed my appetite for gore, gave me some interesting baddies, and a semi-creative...

Drive Thru (2007)

Brendan Cowles

Drive Thru is neither a good nor a bad film, existing merely to entertain by its brainless and clichéd storyline and silly comedy aspects. Offering a decent-looking killer clown, but some uninspiring deaths, it's a...

Eddie: The Sleepwalking Cannibal

Awaiting Release

English

Boris Rodriguez

Young artist Lars has hit the proverbial creative brick wall. Up till now, his creativity has come at too high a cost: inspiration could only come in the form of carnage – blood, guts and limbs – and he’s vowed to never go...

Evil Aliens (2005)

Jake West

This is low-budget filming at its finest; filled with blood, guts, laughter, and fun characters, this movie should please genre fans that are lookin' for a no-brainer flick that brings back a fun splatter-fest that was...

Evil Dead 2: Dead By Dawn (1987)

Sam Raimi

A brainless fun ride from start to finish. Another MUST if you're a horror fan.

Final Destination 2 (2003)

David R. Ellis

If you're a fan of the original then you'll probably enjoy this sequel. I know I did. Check this out.

Final Destination 3 (2006)

James Wong

I personally think this is the weakest in the trilogy, but it's to be expected considering the previous two were held high in regards to entertainment and originality on my list. However, the movie does manage to...

Frankenhooker (1990)

Frank Henenlotter

A good cheesy horror comedy from director Frank Henenlotter. Lots of gore, and lots of fun. Check this baby out.

Fright Night (1985)

Tom Holland

Noted as one of the best vampire films to come out of this genre; this is definitely a movie to see if you haven't already. I personally never get tired of watching this.

Fright Night (2011)

Craig Gillespie

Fright Night could've been a pointless carbon copy of the original, but instead, turned out to be a surprisingly amusing and enjoyable effort from an overused sub-genre. There are a lot of pros and cons for the changes...

From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)

Robert Rodriguez

Badass characters, lots of gore, Salma Hayek, and with a combination of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino makes for a very fun and entertaining vampire romp. Any fan of the genre should check this if they haven't...

Ghost Graduation

Awaiting Release

Spanish

Javier Ruiz Caldera

Modesto is a teacher. Modesto sometimes sees dead people. Not only has this cost him a fortune at the shrink’s, it’s also gotten him fired from every school he’s ever worked at. His luck changes when he lands a job at...

Ginger Snaps (2000)

John Fawcett

One of the best werewolf flicks that have come in a long while. Recommended for any horror fan.

Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed (2004)

Brett Sullivan

A good sequel, but a lot more was expected from it. There's not much werewolf-action as the first had and it mainly plays as a drama-type, because it basically deals just with Brigette and her attempting to hold back...

Gremlins (1984)

Joe Dante

Though minimally dated, Gremlins still holds up as being one helluva entertaining creature feature chased with a biting dark humor, despite being a little too family friendly at times. A Christmas must.

Grindhouse (2007)

Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino

Grindhouse proved to be a masterful piece of creative filmmaking. From the hilarious faux trailers, the fun-ride that was Planet Terror, and to the funny and true-to-exploitation Death Proof, I enjoyed every minute of the...

Hatchet (2006)

Adam Green

Hatchet is a fun ride, but (much like a ride) once things start moving along, before you know it, it's over. The first half is nothing but dirty jokes and T&A, while the second half is a lot of running in circles...

Heebie Jeebies

In Production

English

Thomas L. Callaway

Small town deputy Todd Crane must learn to control his panic attacks when his community is threatened by a centuries-old creature that radiates fear and is out for one thing—revenge.

Hellboy 2: The Golden Army (2008)

Guillermo del Toro

This surreal and visually-stunning film has it all -- comedy, fantasy, action, drama, and even romance. Not only does the movie prove to be better than the first, but in my opinion it's also one of the best comic-to-...

Infestation (2009)

Kyle Rankin

Although filled with plot-holes and bad effects, Infestation proved to be a decent and fairly entertaining genre effort. It doesn't necessarily offer anything we haven't already seen before, but it accomplishes...

Innocent Blood (1992)

John Landis

Fun and entertaining movie. Vampires has sweet glowing eyes. Good story, recommended for all you vamp-fans out there.

Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer

Jon Knautz

Fans of old school practical creature FX will be delighted to see that the beasts in this film don't disappoint, however, the action and pacing of the movie did. If you can relax and sit through the first 50-minutes of...

Jennifer's Body (2009)

Karyn Kusama

With a dark, snarky humor and evidence of originality, Jennifer’s Body is an entertaining gem, albeit somewhat unbalanced, that will most likely divide audiences. If nothing else, Megan Fox proves she can hold her own when...

Juan of the Dead

Awaiting Release

Spanish

Alejandro Brugués

Juan is a typical forty-year-old slacker. One day Havana begins to fill up with zombies. Juan decides that the best way to cope with it is to prosper. "Juan of the dead killed their loved ones" is his slogan, and...

Lesbian Vampire Killers (2009)

Phil Claydon

Another lame comparison to Shaun of the Dead, which is a movie that's miles ahead of this in many aspects. The comedy wasn't very funny, there's no gore, and barely even any nudity; WTF!? Regardless, the movie...

Lost Boys: The Thirst (2010)

Dario Piana

The Thirst is definitely an improvement over the previous sequel, boasting a better story, a bit more action, and the look and tone of a bigger budget. It also just feels more like a true sequel to the original, referencing...

Monster Man (2003)

Michael Davis

Nothing original, but a decent watch none-the-less. Has a good amount of cheesy blood and gore, and a cool monster truck to boot. Recommended for those not looking for anything special and an easy-going horror flick that...

Motel Hell (1980)

Kevin Connor

One of my guilty pleasures. Cheesy and fun. Worth a rent if you're into 80's horror, like myself.

Murder Party (2007)

Jeremy Saulnier

A fun low-budget horror-comedy, with humor and characters that actually work. The pacing drags a little around the middle, but picks up and delivers a nice bloody climax. Worth a check.

My Name Is Bruce (2007)

Bruce Campbell

My Name is Bruce is a successful spoof off the semi-fictional life of Bruce Campbell. Full of fun spoofs and homage's to past efforts, this movie was an entertaining ride from the start. Fans of Bruce or the genre in...

Night of the Demons 2 (1994)

Brian Trenchard-Smith

Fans of the first film will definitely get a kick out of this campy horror trip. Awesome effects, lots of breasts, some decent blood, and some cool demons -- you can't go wrong! Check this out!

Night of the Living Dorks (2004)

Mathias Dinter

A fun horror-comedy that plays homage to the teen comedies of 80's, with a zombie twist. Worth a check for something fun and entertaining.

Orcs! (2010)

James MacPherson

Orcs! is a missed opportunity at being a highly entertaining pic, had it simply gone more towards a splatter flick route, like I was hoping it would. Apart from that, If you look passed the plot-holes and accept it as a...

Osombie

Awaiting Release

English

John Lyde

Dusty, a yoga instructor is on a rescue mission to save her brother Derek, a conspiracy theorist who is convinced Osama Bin Laden is still alive. In Afghanistan, Dusty falls in with a team of NATO Special Forces who are on a...

Rabid Grannies (1988)

Emmanuel Kervyn

A good watch for gore-fans. Cheesy script and acting, but entertaining none-the-less. Not recommended, but worth a check if you're lookin' for something cheesy to rent.

Rahtree: Flower of the Night (2003)

Yuthlert Sippapak

The film successfully blends a few different genres together and delivers quite a few weird and funny characters to keep us entertained. The story was simple, yet effective, and I had a good time watching this thanks to it...

Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale (2010)

Jalmari Helander

Though it never reaches its full potential, Rare Exports still remains an entertainingly lurid little Christmas treat thanks to its great production value and fresh take on the ever popular evil Santa subgenre that should...

Redneck Zombies (1989)

Pericles Lewnes

A cheesy, incredibly low-budget, zombie flick. The acting is horrible, but luckily for the movie nothing is taken seriously, which led me to give it a 4-rating. Although it's a bad flick, it has it's decent moments.

Santa's Slay (2005)

David Steiman

Santa’s Slay is the definition of dumb fun. It’s fast, entertaining, and all around not a bad film to revisit annually with a group of friends on a cool night with an Irish Coffee or five. While not all the jokes work and...

Seed of Chucky (2004)

Don Mancini

Fans of the series will seriously be disappointed in this. I personally thought Bride was a better and more entertaining film. Worth a check if you're into Chucky, but don't expect much at all

Sexykiller (2008)

Miguel Martí

A failed attempt at crossing two sub-genres together, which comes off as a confusing mess. Identity crises or not, the zombie aspect that we're introduced to towards the end of the pic is somewhat entertaining, but...

Shaun of the Dead (2004)

Edgar Wright

A successfully funny UK zombie comedy. Filled with good zombie action, gore, and funny scenes, this is definitely worth a watch.

Sisily 2km (2004)

Jeong-won Shin

If you're looking for an entertaining Asian horror-comedy, then let this be it. Interesting characters and good humor. Definitely recommended.

Slither (2006)

James Gunn

If you're a horror fan that enjoys gore and cheese then be sure to give this film a check.

Slumber Party Massacre 2 (1987)

Deborah Brock

As entertaining and fun as The Slumber Party Massacre 2 can be to the right audience, there's no way of ignoring the fact that it's a poorly made, uneven late 80s slasher.

Smart Ass

In Production

English

Marlon Wayans, Mike Tiddes

No official plot yet, but it's said to be a "spoof of a various found-footage flicks like Paranormal Activity and The Devil Inside Me."

Suck (2009)

Rob Stefaniuk

Despite the film's title, the movie does not Suck, and as a comedy, delivers some surprisingly good chuckles and laugh-out-loud moments (for me anyway). There's a decent amount of blood, but not much as far as gore...

Teeth (2007)

Mitchell Lichtenstein

This was an interesting film that might not appeal to everyone due to its different approach to an uncommon and seemingly ridiculous theme. I personally liked the movie and the lead character "Dawn" and how she...

Terror Tract (2000)

George P. Cosmatos

The film is very predictable and doesn't deliver much in the blood and guts department, but it's still a fun watch thanks to its interesting stories and hilarious wraparound segment. Check this out.

The Dark Power (1985)

Phil Smoot

This was probably one of the cheesiest and most ridiculous horror films I've seen in a while, but that's not entirely a bad thing. In fact, I had a lot of fun watching this once the action picked up. How can you go...

The Host (2006)

Joon-ho Bong

Finally a monster movie done right. Not focusing on scares or a completely ridiculous plot, the film is packed with drama, comedy, cool sequences and an awesome and original creature. Check this baby out.

The Last Lovecraft: Relic Of Cthulhu (2009)

Henry Saine

A victim of its limited budget, The Last Lovecraft is a decent, but ultimately disappointing horror-comedy. Lovecraft aficionados will likely find this amusing, while others (like me) will be underwhelmed by much of what it...

The Quiet Family (1998)

Ji-woon Kim

A fun and simple dark comedy that works thanks to the talented director and cast of characters. Worth a check.

The Tripper (2006)

David Arquette

The comedy and satire fell a bit flat, but as a slasher it was an entertaining watch. Interesting characters, deaths, and a decent amount of blood and guts. Worth a check.

The Vagrant (1992)

Chris Walas

A good fairly unknown horror-comedy, with an interesting premise and a lot of quirky characters. Although predictable, it still manages to be an enjoyable watch. Worth a check.

The World's End

Pre-Production

English

Edgar Wright

20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hell bent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by mate Gary King, a 40-year old man...

Troll Hunter (2010)

Andre Ovredal

More of a fantasy-comedy, Troll Hunter proved to be a fun and intriguing ride from start to finish; offering an original premise and some great CG and creative look for these large creatures. Fans of the "found footage...

Tucker & Dale vs Evil (2010)

Eli Craig

Tucker & Dale vs Evil is a successful blend of comedy, a creative premise, likeable characters, and some blood and gore for good measure. It's amazing how the flick still hasn't received the proper distribution...

Undead (2003)

Michael Spierig, Peter Spierig

A good zombie flick that should please zombie fans, like it did for me. Has an interesting and unique story and a good amount of gore and humor, but the characters and humor do get annoying at times. Worth a watch.

Vampires (2010)

Vincent Lannoo

This is a film that you'll have to like from the start, because if you can't get into it early on then you'll probably end up spending a majority of the movie checking the running time and wondering when it...

Versus (2000)

Ryuhei Kitamura

One of the best and most entertaining Japanese films I've ever seen; simply two hours of pure entertainment. It has sweet ass action sequences with loads of gore. If you're a fan of zombies and John Woo-type action...

Visible Secret 2 (2002)

Abe Kwong

Worth a check if you're a fan of Hong Kong horror, but don't expect a lot of scares. I recommend just checkin' the first film and skipping this one

Wild Zero (2000)

Tetsuro Takeuchi

Very cool Japanese flick. It's got it all - tits, zombies, rock n' roll, magic powers, alien takeovers, gore, comedy. If you're a fan of Troma or of zombies in general, check this film out!

ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction (2009)

Kevin Hamedani

A pic that spends entirely too much time trying to deliver a message than actually having any entertaining zombie action. We're given way too many drawn out and unfunny scenes, with addition to the bad acting and poor...
