 The ultimate Drive-in and Grindhouse Convention surpassed everyone’s expectations this time. I had decided to get there Thursday night as opposed to leaving Friday morning. So we packed up the truck with all kinds of contraband and headed up Route 80 into the wilderness.
We had the Wild Eye guys about an hour in front of us with Joel Reed and Jamie Gillis aboard. We stopped for dinner at a quaint little truck stop and found Gia’s House of Pulled Pork and Gasoline. Never had a salad with french fries mixed in with the veggies, but there’s a first for everything. (more…)

 42nd Street Pete, grindhouse expert and frequent SCARS contributor, finally has his own web radio show! Check it out tonight on jackalope105fm.com at 10pm est. This is what Pete said about what’s in store for tonight:
“This may be all over the road as I get it together, but it’s an ‘anything goes’ type of show. Tonight I’ll cover a bunch of stuff, including the Michael Jackson debacle, the debut of my weekly shit list, hooker stories and general madness. Tune in and let me know what you think.”

 Let’s see who has the balls to make Zombie Bukkake the family film of the decade.
Review by 42nd Street Pete
This was Joe’s first novel as his prior book, was a collection of short stories entitled Twisted Lonliness. The back story of Zombie Bukkake was that no printer would print this book because of the cover. I don’t know if the cover was changed or not, but finally it’s out and what a twisted read it is.
For those who don’t know what “bukkake” is, well it’s not a baked good. Oh, it does have cream. But nothing you would want to eat. (more…)

 2009, from Bloody Earth Films. Directed by Jacob Ennis.
I was on the fence about even watching this because of my low tolerance for shit like Chaos, Hostel, and other “capture the girls, rape & torture them” drek that has been oozing off the DVD shelves for the last couple of years. Stash looked like it would go that route but turned out to be a decent film.

 2001, Directed by William Wesley. Starring Lou Diamond Phillips, Lori Petty, Steven Williams, and L.Q. Jones. DVD by Lions (if it’s a really shitty horror film, we’ll release it) Gate.
I saw this, I think on the Sci-Fi channel. It looked like it might have promise, but then it never ran again. Then I find the DVD in the discount bin. Bad sign, but for $3.99, I could always replace one of my coasters. So how bad did Pete get screwed this time? Half & half. (more…)

 How could you go wrong with Three WIP films in one package? You can’t. You get Women in Cell Block 7, Escape From Hell, and The Hot Box. Being the lazy bastard that I am, I only watched The Hot Box. Why? Because I saw that film and Run Angel, Run at the late, lamented Troy Hills Drive in on RT 46 in the summer of ‘72 and was feeling nostalgic.
Hot Box was one of the earlier WIP films and it actually had nothing to do with women in prison. Four nurses are kidnapped by revolutionaries to teach them first aid and help the sick, impoverished people. Written by Jonathan Demme a couple of years before he wrote and directed the classic Caged Heat, Hot Box is head and shoulders above some of the other similar films. It has a lot more socio political overtones thanks to Demme’s writing ability. It has a lot more bloody violence and is Margret Markov’s second or third feature. (more…)
