Barry Wolf VS Ron Horn APW feb 10th 2010

Thrift store and antique mall finds part 1

Been down in Biloxi since last weekend. Went to the huge thrift store in Ocean Spring the other day and got the following.

Shazam Little Golden book-59 cents-I remember having this one when I was very young. Don't even think I could read when I had it . In decent condition. No rips to any pages and no crayon marks on any page. Still found it funny it has a cover price of 49 cents. But the thrift store wanted 59 cents.

The Phantom Movie novelization-25 cents-It will just get thrown into the "books I need to read pile". But the price was cheap,and I liked the movie.

Triple H stuffed toy with voice chip,Michealangelo action figure,Disney Robin Hood Action figure,Rearview mirror Enterprise toy,and big headed Emperor Palpatine toy-59 cents-This was a clear plastic bag stuffed with about 15 different toys. I saw the Triple H ,Robin hood and enterprise toy. Figured those 3 were worth the price. Gave the rest of the stuff I didn't mention to my cousin's two sons.

Then today I went to a local Antique mall. Has about 60ish booths. Lots of decently priced stuff. one fourth of the back wall is a huge book store. Lots of stuff at great prices. I had went here cause my Uncle had told me he had found some wrestling dvds here the other day. We never found them,I figured someone bought them. But I found a stack of Crossgen Edge TPBs about 5 volumes total. I only had 3 bucks on me,so luck for me they were priced at $2 each. No copies of number 1,but they had 2-5ish. I grabbed a good condition copy.

Al Pro Wrestling Philadelphia MS 02/20/2010


Picked up this DVD at the Xtreme Outlaw Wrestling show I went too last Saturday.I open up the disc using VLC player. Nice the menu looks just like the ones my DVD recorder.Some guy in a suit comes out and tells the crowd why the show is starting late. Looks like a 200+ crowd. Guy in suit starts shilling the 50/50 bucket. Winner gets 50% of the money from the raffle ticket sales. And also gets to walk to the ring with Jerry Lawler. They also want females over the age of 18 for a lumberjill match later. They want to put 12 women around the ring and arm them each with a belt.

First match is Anton Leveigh vs Monty Warbucks. I am not completely sure but it sounds like Warbucks is coming out to Motorhead. That means Bix will already be booing Mr Warbucks. The crowd heckles Warbucks. After about 2 minutes Anton Leveigh's music hits. And the crowd goes wild. Kinda funny seeing a most likely religious audience cheering for a guy who shares his name with the head of the Church of Satan. Warbucks does a half ass Fargo strut,to mild boos from the crowd. Then he slips climbing the first rope and rolls out the ring. The two guys have a pose down that gets the crowd excited. Anton eats a shoulder-block and Warbucks does the Fargo strut again. Monty gets Anton in the corner and starts to chop him. Nice sold looking and sounding chops,he follows this up with a arm breaker. Anton does a spinning arm scissors take down followed by a hurricanrana. Then he climbs to the top rope. Ron Horn has run out and throws him off the top rope. Ron,Warbucks and Warbucks second all beat on Leveigh for a few minutes then Barry Wolf hits the ring. He cleans house and the heels regroup at ringside. Horn and Warbucks do a great Fabulous ones strut outta camera side right. And the ref lets us know that Anton Leveigh won by DQ. Warbucks bets that Ron Horn can beat Barry Wolf in 7 minutes.

So we get to match two. Ron Horn and Barry Wolf take turns climbing the turnbuckles. Horn of course getting boos and Wolf getting screams. Wolf throws Horn in the corner and then splashes him. Horn does a great fall and then he does the southern heel tactic of stalling. Horns hits a shoulder block,then Wolf counters with two quick arm drags. Horn rolls out the ring and sits in the lap of some man at ringside. The numerous kids in the audience start making chicken noises at Horn and he finally gets back in the ring. Horn nails a nice looking clothesline then starts stomping on Wolf's hand. He slaps the crap outta Wolf and brings him to his feet to then just knock him down again with a punch. Ron puts Wolf in a bow and arrow. And Warbucks tries to start up a "LETS GO RON" chant. Wolf fights his way back to his feet but ends up eating a stiff elbow from Horn. After criss crossing the ring Wolf connects with a good flying clothesline. Then he climbs the ropes to go for what I bet is his finisher. But Warbucks knocks him down and Horn takes advantage of this. Wolf is down on the mat in pain,and the ref calls for the bell. Horn and Warbucks do the strut again,but Anton Leveigh hits the ring and runs them out. The ref declares Barry Wolf the winner. And Wolf and Leveigh chase Horn and Warbucks outta the arena.

Third Match. "Hells Bells" is playing so I guess that means Milhouse will hate Lord Humongous. I know there is no way this is Sid Vicious under the hockey mask. Looks like the crowd is around 180-200 or so. Oh shit are they handing Lord Humongous a mic? OK that wasn't a mic. Mitch Snakeman Teretta comes out. With his canvas bag,most likely holding a nice sized albino python. Has anyone ever come to the ring using "The Crusher-The Ramones" or even better "The Crusher-The Dee Dee Ramone/king rap song" as their entrance music? This will be the fourth time I have seen Teretta wrestle. I figure with these two guys we might get a good WWF 80's style match. Two big guys hitting each other with crisp power moves. Back and forth till Teretta flips Humongous over the top rope. Both guys fight back into the ring. Mitch ends up hitting a DDT on Humongous manager and then drapes the snake over him. Somehow this causes Mitch to win. I think I might have missed something. Ok the snake isn't an albino. The two times I saw Mitch wrestle last month he had a 8footish albino Python. I have a pic of it i need to scan in."You shook me all night long-ACDC" hits and Monty Warbucks,Ron Horn,and who I bet is Ash Anderson. I am confirmed to be right by the ring announcer. The crowd boos the shit outta Anderson. Then some rock/rap/country song hits and Cowboy Cody starts his way to the ring. Anderson attacks Cody,while Cody is distracted throwing bandannas into the audience. A few minutes into the match Ron Horn and Monty Warbucks again attack the ring and gang up on Cowboy Cody. Causing the match to be "thrown out". Anton and Barry wolf hit the ring and help Cody up. Anton gets on the mic and calls Horn,Anderson and Warbucks the gay trio. And the crowd cheers. Nice Barry Wolf calls Ron Horn "Fat Hardy". I seriously believe Ron needs to be in TNA soon working a Matt and Jeff's little unknown half brother. Barry Wolf refers to the trio as the Buffet Patrol. The heels finally accept the challenge. And we are on to the semi main event.

Anton Leveigh,Cowboy Cody,Barry Wolf VS Monty Warbucks,Ron "Fat Hardy" Horn,and Ash Anderson. Ash starts the match and circles around the ring with Leveigh. Ash rake's Anton's eyes and Warbucks gets tagged in. Leveigh takes him down quick with a arm drag and repeats this a few seconds later with Ron Horn. Barry Wolf tags in and hits a second rope elbow on Horn. Horn tags in Anderson. Wolf gets him in the corner and tries to throw him into the other. But it is reversed by Ash. Cowboy Cody tags in and challenges Ash to a test of strength. Ash kicks Cody in the stomach 2 times . Cody powers up and hits all three of the heels with solid right hands. The heels go outside the ring and huddle up. Cody tags in Wolf. Wolf climbs to the top rope and hits a double ax handle on Ash. But Horn,Anderson,and Warbucks end up triple teaming Wolf behind the refs back. Wolf kinda reminds me of a young memphis era Ricky Morton. The heels triple team Wolf again behind the ref's back. Warbucks drags Wolf to the center of the ring and nails a backhand chop which cause's Barry to collapse to the mat. This keeps going on for 3 or so minutes. And finally Ash goes for a pin,but Leveigh runs in for a quick save. Warbucks tags in and slaps Wolf hard in the face. Wolf is selling this punishment very much like Morton. Horn tags in and Wolf manages to hit Horn with a running elbow smash. Both guys are flat on their backs and the ref starts the 10 count. Horn is on his knees at 6. Wolf tags out at 8. And Leveigh hits the ring just pounding on all three of the heels. Leveigh goes up and hits a second rope frog splash on Warbucks to get the win. Very fun to watch southern style tag match.

I fast forward thru the ring announcer and stop on who I assume is a heel. He is talking about how he doesn't like fat people,and nasty people from Philadelphia. And he guarantee's us that Jerry Lawler won't make it to the PPV tomorrow. Jerry Lawler makes his way to the ring with two referees. I assume the heel is Neil"The real deal" Taylor. With his manager Hollywood Jimmy. The King works on the mic cutting down Hollywood Jimmy. Nice Taylor is coming to the ring to "Beat It-Micheal Jackson". OK I am kinda confused the DVD back cover promises over 2 hours of action. But this is the last match listed on the back of the case match listing. According to the clock this runs 2 hours 40 something minutes . And we are at a little over and hour. The King comes out to "Back in Black-ACDC". WTF did they just have a ACDC greatest hits CD for the music? Both guys stall for 5 or so minutes. Taking turns with the house mic. The crowd is of course behind Lawler. IIRC Philadelphia is pretty close to Memphis. Taylor slams Lawler. And Lawler quickly slams Taylor. Taylor rolls outta the ring. They lock up again,and Taylor throws Lawler into the ropes. And then hits a back body flip/ The King gets back on his feet and gets throw again into the ropes. But the King hits the breaks and smacks Taylor with a right fist. Hollywood Jimmy complains about Lawler using closed fists. But this of course just gets the crowd even more behind Jerry. The king hits a jawbreaker that sends Taylor to the mat. Lawler hits three right fists then tries to pin Taylor after a dropkick. Taylor kicks out and the King keeps telling Taylor to "Get UP!". Jerry hits another right fist and Taylor takes the Greg Valentine face first fall to the mat. Somehow Taylor ends up with what looks to be brass knuckles. And he hits Lawler with them. Taylor climbs to the top rope. And catches Lawler with a jumping punch thingy. Lawler wins, but while he is celebrating Taylor punches the King in the back of the head. Then starts to choke Lawler on the bottom rope. Some guy comes into the ring talking smack on Hollywood Jimmy. But the guy gets blindsided by Taylor and then a beatdown from Neil and Jimmy. Ok this is strange this is the listed main event. But the counter list almost an hour left. Oh crap Taylor now has Lawler handcuffed to the bottom rope. Lawler seems to break the handcuffs. And runs the two dasturdly heels outta ring.

Out comes JD Macay. Backed up with the Ghost Rider. Seems this was supposed to happen at a later show, But JD doesn't want to wait. And he wants to face the Giant Hillbilly tonight in a strap match. The ring is surrounded by what looks like 9 women. I guess this is the lumberjill match and it is now also a strap match. Is Russeo booking this? The ring announcer is trying to make sure all the lumber jills have a belt. And the lady in front of the camera keeps talking about how she will "Whip the tar outta Macay's little white BUTT! I'M GONNA TEAR THAT LITTLE WHITE BUTT UP!!". Then sadly the camera person tells her to get outta the way.Shit they aren't using a strap. Giant Hillbilly chases JD outta the ring and JD gets hit with a belt. He quickly rolls back in and starts yelling at the lady that hit him with the belt. This is the longest match I have seen with Hillbilly in it. JD ends up out in the audience and two of the ladies try to hit him with their belts. JD gets a small comeback on the Hillbilly. And the crowd starts chanting for the Hillbilly to get up and beat on JD. JD takes off his boot and hits the Giant Hillbilly with it 3 times. Then puts the Hillbilly in a figure four. But the Hillbilly reverses it. And JD taps out.

I just realized that earlier they said that the winner of the 50/50 raffle would come out in the main event with Lawler. But this didn't happen and Lawler wasn't the main event. two guys hit the ring. One of who I think might be Alan Funk. I have no idea who the other guy is . Then some rap song hits the speakers and CJ Cash and some guy who's name I can't make out head to the ring.Fairly long well paced tag match.Cash and the guy in the yellow trunks have the crowd completely behind them. The two heels do the old fake tag behind the refs back bit and basically double team Yellow Trunks guy. Wait I think yellow trunks guy is Cameron Valentine. And 10 minutes or so into the match the dvd is over. That sucks but shit it only cost me $5. It was worth what I paid for it.

Xtreme Outlaw Wrestling 10/30/2010 Brookhaven MS Factory Furniture Store Free show

This is the free show that was promoted at the last XOW show in Brookhaven.it was held at a local furniture store. I showed up about 1 1/2 hours early and ran into the old guy that believes that since Mid South folded wrestling has been fake. Ended up getting to talk to a few of the workers,and got them to autograph a poster from the last show. Checked the gimmick table and they had a dvd. All Pro Productions presents Wrestling at the Carthage Coliseum,Carthage MS Halloween Night 2009. It was only $5 so I picked it up. The front and back covers list,Cameron Valentine,The real deal Neil taylor,CJ Cash,JD Mckay,The Giant Hillbilly,NWA superstar Johnny Morton,Special Ed,and Nick Grymes. They were selling "autographed" pics of Stone Cold for $2. There was no chairs,unless you brought your own. So I was happy I had thrown a folding chair in the backseat of my car before I left home.

First match was Soultaker Grim VS Antino Salvadori. Antino was working a mafia gimmick and was the face. Soultaker Grim,Who it turns out owns the ring that was used,was doing a kinda heel undertaker/bikertaker gimmick. Grim riles up the crowd ,and after about 8 minutes of action hits Salvadori with a chokeslam to get the pin. The kids in front of me asked their dad if Soultaker Grim was Undertaker's and Kane's older brother.

Next up was Ron "Fat Hardy" Horn VS Faroh of Phunk. I had mentioned before the show to Horn that at the last show he reminded me of Adrian Street. He thanked me and said that he knows Adrian and how cool Adrian is. Faroh of Phunk is wearing a bandanna and a black shirt that on the back it has the naked lady from the 18 wheeler mudflaps and the word FAROH below it. Fairly quick paced match with Faroh doing lots of fast paced moves and Horn stalling and other classic southern heel tricks. After Horn has been stalling for a few minutes I yell "Hey FAT HARDY lock up already!". And the crowd starts to call him Fat Hardy. Horn ends up cheating the win, and this gets the crowd very rowdy.

Jesse Dalton VS Barry Wolf is up next. Barry Wolf is the guy that went by Dustin Wolf at the last show. Barry is also Mr 500 since he came in at 500 in this years PWI 500. Nice back and forth match that last for at least 10 minutes,before Ron Horn runs in and helps Dalton win. This causes the Faroh of Phunk to come out and challenge Dalton and Horn to a tag match later on in the show. After some heckling from a large woman in the crowd.who had about 4 teeth,Horn/Dalton finally accept. The promoter comes on the mic and tells us this will be the main event. Which is kinda weird cause the poster list Kamala VS Mitch "Snakeman" Teretta as the main event.

After the match the announcer tells up they are having a 50/50 raffle. You buy a ticket for a buck. And before the main event they will pick a winner. The winner gets half of the ticket sales money and gets to come out with one of the teams at the main event.

I look over to the door that is serving as the lockroom door,and see Snakeman coming out. He walks to the ring and then opens up his canvas bag and throws out his at least 7 foot long albino python. I am puzzled why the advertisted main event is happening as the 4th match of a promised 7 matches. Then some tribal music hits and out comes Kamala. Who looks like he is weighing in at 250 tops now. No Akbar or Kim Chee as his manager instead he has a guy,that I was told is training. Seems this guys name is Soul Train. He is a average height kinda chubby super pale white guy. The crowd kinda doesn't know how to react,since both guys are faces. Kamala refuses to get in the ring until the snake is put back in the bag. Finally they lock up,and Kamala throws Snakeman into the corner. After about 6 minutes of chops,and shoulderblocks from Kamala,Ron Horn hits the ring and causes a draw. I found this kinda weird. I figure it might be cause both guys are faces.

Time for intermission,so I walk back to the gimmick table and see they have sold out of the DVD I bought and have a new one for sale. All Pro Wrestling,Philadelphia MS Feb 20,2010. And it list a lineup of Jerry the King Lawler,Rob Horn aka Ron Horn,Neil The real deal Taylor,Anton Leveigh,Monty Warbucks,Hollywood Jimmy,Lord Humongons,and Mitch Teretta.I check the back and it has 6 matches listed. And buy it since it is $5. I go back and sit down and see that Dustin/Barry Wolf is at ringside and so I go up and talk to him. Turns out he had read my review of the last show. And then he offers to autograph my dvd,and I get a picture with him. A few minutes later the Faroh of Phunk comes out,I go to get a pic with him and he comments on how most of the audience is taller than him. Then Mitch Snakeman Teretta hits the ring. He is doing free autographs and taking pics with his snake in the ring for $5. I got get a pic taken. And he tells me he will have it printed up for me later in the show. Kamala comes out and is charging $5 for autographs. And the promoter is selling a program for $2 that has pics of most of the guys on the show,plus various other wrestlers that work in this area. I end up buying a poster of the event from a kid for $3 and after the show got a few of the guys to autograph it. I go talk to the announcer and he tells me he will give me the match listings after the show. So I spelled all the names as they were listed.

Finally intermission is over and John Thor comes out,but he sadly doesn't have his cane with him. Then "King of the Road" hits and The Giant Hillbilly comes out. The crowd goes fucking insane. Hillbilly seems to almost be more over than Kamala. They work almost the same match as the last time I saw them. But the crowd again gets really into it. Giant Hillbilly hits a giant splash in the corner and pins Thor for the 3 count.

Jay Blade is out next,and since he was one of the best workers on the last card I am excited. He is working heel again. Then the announcer tells us that The Nick Mason Experience is on his way to the ring. Nick it turns out is the skinny teenage kid I saw earlier putting the ring together. Fun cruiserweight style match.

Now it's time to see who wins the 50/50 raffle. Turns out to be some teenager. He goes and gets his half of the money. And it is time for the main event. Out first is Ron Horn and Jesse Dalton. They get heckled by the crowd and Barry Wolf and the Faroh of Phunk hit the ring. This was your classic southern style tag match. With Horn and Dalton cutting off the ring on Wolf. And cheating every time the ref is distracted. Wolf is like a modern day deep south indy Ricky Morton. His selling is getting the crowd all worked up. The woman with 3 teeth says something I can't make out,but it causes Horn to LOL for 3 or 4 minutes. Finally the Faroh gets the hot-tag. And he cleans house. Him and Wolf do a double roll-up and win the match. As soon as the match is over the crowd starts walking off. But Ron Horn gets on the mic and talks about how they just got a free wrestling show. And should at least go take a look inside the local furniture store that is sponsoring the show. Sadly most of the crowd ignores him. I go thank the promoter and the store owner for the show. And then got to talk to John Thor and Jay Blade for a few minutes. Overall it was a better show than the last one in town. And I am hoping the 2 DVDs I bought will also be just as fun.

31 days of horror Year 2 day 27


Texas Chain Saw Massacre

Ahh this is not only my favorite horror film ever,but in my top 5 favorite films ever. I first saw this film at the drive-in with my dad and my cousin. I was 3 years old and Dad figured I would fall asleep before the film started. But it turned out I stood up on the backseat and watched the entire film. Turns out this was the first movie I ever saw. The film starts out with 5 hippies in a van heading to a remote location in rural Texas. They are heading to one of their grandfather's old houses. On the way they pick up a hitchhiker that after being just plain strange attacks the one hippie that is in a wheelchair. They throw the hitchhiker out and he marks the side of the van with blood. After finding the old house,two of the hippies go off to what they are told is an old swimming hole. Well it is dried up and they see a house off in the distance. So they go to see if they might be able to get some gas. Big mistake,cause this is the Sawyer family house and they both run into Leatherface. This is a film that once it starts the intensity level never backs down. From the first kill to the final "dinner" scene it is a full throttle attack on your senses. The grain of the film stock and the various strange sounds add to the realism of the film and help make the viewers uneasy. One thing that stands out is how most people act like this is one of the goriest films ever,but really besides the scene in the van ,there is very very very little blood on screen. Most of the violence is implied and left off screen. Another thing most people miss on first viewing is that Leatherface has more than one mask. During the dinner scene he is wearing a mask that has a more womanly look to it. Texas Chain Saw Massacre gets a perfect A+.

Friday the 13th part 5

The much shit upon entry in this long running horror series. It is also the one with the most kills. Tommy from part 4 is now outta the nuthouse and living at a group home. But it seems Jason is back and is killing all the residents of the home. I have always loved this film,and have defended it for years. The kills are interesting,like the one were someone is killed by having a road flare shoved into their mouth. This time while watching it I listened to the fan commentary by the guys from Deadpit Radio. And Uncle Bill And CK helped make a entertaining film even better. I had actually forgotten that Dudley from Different Strokes has a kinda major part in this film. And the scene were his brother is in the outhouse singing along with his girl is so bad it is great. One thing that I had never noticed till I listened to the commentary is how when Tommy is seeing the imaginary Jason the mask has the normal red stripes but when it is the fake Jason it has blue stripes. Thanks to some good kills and a general fun atmosphere Friday 5 gets a B-.

Night of the Demons 2009 remake

I acquired a copy of this last weekend and finally got around to watching it the other day. Same basic premise as the original. Teens in a house ,demons attack blah blah blah. But this time you have a cast of somewhat knowns. Like Monica Keena,Edward Furlong,Shannon Elizabeth,and Diora Bard. There is a nice cameo from Linnea Quigley near the beginning of the film. And it is a nice reference to the original. Diora Bard does the infamous lipstick gag,and while it has been changed it still works pretty well. Furlong is the male lead and is convincing playing a pudgy,bloated,drug dealing sleazebag. Keena is the female lead and does a good job,plus she is still looking incredibly hot. Shannon Elizabeth plays Angela,and does an ok job. I have found that outside Jack Frost and American Pie I really don't care for Ms Elizabeth. The various effects are good. And the demon makeup is well done. Sadly Tiffany Shepis has what amounts to about a 5 minute cameo. She deserves better. I do like how the ending was changed and it is very effective. Night of the Demons 2009 remake earns a solid B+.

Elvira's Movie Macabre The Satanic Rites of Dracula


I just finished watching this weeks episode of the new Elvira show. I have seen SRoD at least 2 times before and haven't ever really enjoyed it. Well even Elvira her cleavage and her witty quips couldn't save this shitstorm of a film. First off I am not a huge fan of the the various Hammer horror movies. Really the only one I enjoy is "Curse of the Werewolf" and that is more cause I am a huge fan of the late Oliver Reed. This is the second to last of the Hammer vampire movies. It is set in the current day of the 70's. A satanic cult is loose in England and sacrificing various nude women. The police find out and call on Peter Cushing as Van Helsing to help out. What really sucks about the movie is it is at least a third of the way in before we get to see Christopher Lee as Dracula. And he really doesn't have much to do in the film. I was kinda nice to see a young Joanna Lumley in this film. But even she couldn't save the us from horrible acting and a bad script. By it's self SRoD gets a D- but with the few bits from Elvira it goes up to a C-.

I love cheap dvds part 2

Went to a garage sale this past weekend and got the following for 50 cents each.

House Party II-Pajama Jammy JAM!! Haven't seen this one in about 15 years,and it doesn't hold up that great. But shit it was 50 cents.

Pee Wee's big adventure-Kinda surprised I didn't already own this. The commentary is good.

Darkness Falls-Haven't watched it yet. But IIRC it was about a killer tooth fairy.

Freeway-Modern retelling of Lil red riding hood,this is one that I have had many people recommend to me.

The Crush-This is another one I haven't seen in many many years. Hoping it holds up.

Christina's House-Never heard of this,but I figured for the price it was worth taking a chance.

Exorcist III-This is the only one from the Exorcist series that I enjoy.

Slumber Party Massacre-Shout Factory release

Haven't seen this one in over 20 years. Holds up pretty well and I noticed lots more of the background jokes this viewing. 2 sisters throw a slumber party and a maniac with a power drill stalks and kills them. Simple plot did with a pretty small budget,but somehow it all works and forms a pretty decent slasher film. Most of the FX are good. Another stand out that seems to get overlooked is how the killer moves and his body language. He has this kinda half sidestep half creeping walk that is very strange. This disc also had a documentary,"Sleepless Nights",that was about all 3 films in this series. Lots of interesting stories are told about all of the films. But if you have already read the Femme Fatale issue all about SPM ,you have already heard 80% of what is covered in the documentary. The disc also has a commentary with the directer,a guy that host the kinda offical SPM/SHM fan site. Pretty good commentary that offers up some new informantion. Slumber party massacre gets a A.

Ok sorry folks

I had a minor nervous breakdown earlier today. And so I am heading tomorrow down to Biloxi to spend time with my family. I will try to still do my normal October one horror film each day but I can't promise that I will be able too. No worries I am doing better,but it is the best thing for me right now to not be alone.

Wizard of Gore 2008 Remake-Dimension Extreme DVD

Back when I was working my last job. I had plenty of downtime so I would watch dvds to help pass the time. So I got were I would buy almost any horror film on dvd. This was one of them. Kip Pardue is a writer/publisher for a tiny underground newspaper,and one night he goes to see a magic preformane for Montag the Magnificent,who is played by Crispen Glover. It seems Montag does amazing very gory magic tricks in which it seems he kills random audience members. This fascinates Kip so much he keeps coming back to every performance and tries to figure out how Montag is doing all the tricks. But there is one small catch every person that Montag kills on stage ends up dying in a grisly death a few days later. So Kip starts trying to figure out who is being all the murders. The film has some decetn CGI effects and a nice small role by Geoffry combs. But he is so hidden under makeup that I didn't realize it was him till my second time watching it. The film is also loaded with lots of very trippy scenes that help make you feel very uneasy. All of the murder victums are played by various members of the Suicide Girls website. And while their acting abilities are kinda bad,they make up for it in how their less than normal good looks add to the strangeness of this film. Wizard of gore 2008 remake gets a B+.

Masters of Horror:The V word-Anchor bay dvd

This is an episode from the second and sadly last season of Master of Horror. Directed by Erik Dickerson and written by Mick Garris. This is the story about two late teen guys who goto the local mortuary to see the corpse of a guy that picked on them all the time. One of the guy's older cousin is the night watchman at the mortuary,but when they arrive there no one answers the door. But it is unlocked so they go inside.Once inside they get the feeling that something isn't right. I was impressed with the camera angles and the use of lighting in this section of the film.
Finally they discover that there is a vampire in the mortuary,who is played by Micheal Ironsides. While running away from them,one of the guys falls down the stairs and gets a compound fracture in his leg. So the other guy has to leave him behind. Later that night compound fracture guy shows up at the other guy's home and once he is inside he bites the other guy. And the film goes downhill from here. It started off pretty good and was able to build lots of tension,but once the second guy gets bite the film goes off the rails and even Micheal Ironsides overacting can't save it. This episode gets a C-.

Most horror fans have at least heard of the long running “Witchcraft” series of films. They started off as low budget B horror movies but around part 4 morphed into low budget T&A horror movies. Earlier this year when Movie Gallery was closing I found part 13 for $1. Having already seen about 7 or so of the earlier ones I figured I would pick it up. Going in I was expecting lots of nudity and lots of cheap looking gore,but I was majorly wrong. There is almost no nudity at all in this shitpile of a film. And the gore is super low rent. Will Spanner is back for the 10th or so time in this series. He has to solve the mystery of who is killing people and ripping their hearts out. I am pretty sure it is a different actor playing Will this time,but then it has been about 3 years since I saw Witchcraft 12. The acting is worse than porn film acting. The film looks to have been recorded on a old ass vhs camcorder,and is full of grain and video dropouts. Avoid this film at all cost. It isn’t even worth buying to get drunk and laugh at. Witchcraft 13 gets a F-.

Children of the Corn IV the Gathering-Dimension DVD

This is the second of the series to get released straight to video. Starring a very young Naomi Watts and Karen Black ,CotC IV seems to be completely unrelated to the previous entries in the series. But it has been revealed that in a deleted scene we find out the connection to the previous 3 films. Naomi is a young woman who is coming back to her hometown to help take care of her mom. But when she gets there she finds out over night most of the kids started suffering from a high fever and now seem to be possessed. It seems the spirit of a murdered child preacher,Josiah, has possessed them. The possessed kids assume the names of children from Josiah's time and try to bring Josiah back from the dead. It seems in the deleted scene we find out that Josiah has another name "He who walks behind the rows". Now I haven't seen all of the Children of the Corn films,I don't think I have seen 5 or 7. But this one is the best so far. The story is pretty interesting,the acting is way better than it has been. And the FX are really good considering how low the budget had to be. CotC IV earns a B+.

Fangoria Blood Drive II-Koch Vision DVD

In 2005 Fangoria magazine put out a second collection of short horror movies. This one is hosted by the super sexy Mistress Juliya,of FUSE TV fame. There is 8 shorts in total. And also a nice featurette on Bruce Campbell. In the featurette Bruce is interviewed in his home and talks all about his career and what his plans for the future are. While all the shorts on the DVD are worth a watch ,two of them stand out. The Gibbering Horror of Howard Ghormley by Steve Daniels,is a kind of Moebius strip of a man that seems to be either stuck in a time warp or slowly losing what is left of his sanity. Filmed in black and white and silent,except for some background music,this short left me feeling very uneasy and the ending was stuck in my mind for days after viewing. Means to an End by Paul Solet and Jake Hamilton,is about two horror fans that do special effect work for lots of low budget films. After a bad experience on a job,they decide to make their own film. But since they have almost no money they will have to use "inventive" ways to get the gore needed for any horror film. Very very humorous and fun short that has a nice coda. The rest of the shorts are good,but the above two stand head and shoulder above them. I give this DVD a solid B.

Dorm of the Dead-Midnight horror stories DVD

Earlier this year I went to Coast Con in Biloxi MS. One of the dealers had a huge stack of various DVDs. I went through the stack and picked up this film and one other. He wanted $3 each,but I talked him into taking $5 for both. Turns out I got ripped off for $4.98. The movie starts off at Arkham University,and two super snobby girls have a score to settle with a couple of goth girls. One of the snobby rich girls accidentally starts a zombie outbreak on campus. And she thinks Sarah,one of the goth girls,as the perfect person to join the undead. I picked this DVD up for 3 reasons. First off it is a zombie movie,and I love zombie movies. Second,It was cheap. And third is because Tiffany Shepis is listed on the front cover. I think Ms Shepis is the best of the new crop of scream queens,she is not only very cute but a good actress. Well turns out she is in the movie for about 5 minutes tops. And the rest of the main cast are about as talented as a kindergardener in a school play. Even the somewhat abundant nudity can't save this movie from being a total waste of time. Dorm of the Dead gets a F-.

Pet Sematary Special Collectors Edition-Paramount DVD

Found this for $5 the other days and realized that I not only didn't own it but haven't seen it in almost 20 years. Sat down and watched it earlier today,and besides the horrid acting from Denise Crosby,the film holds up pretty well. Mom,Dad and two kids move to a new house somewheres in the backwoods of Maine. Just after they get settled in they meet the next door neighbor,Fred Gwynne, and he shows them the local pet sematary. Well after a few days the Mom and both kids go to visit her parents,and while they are gone the family's pet cat gets run over by one of the many 18 wheelers that speed down the road at all times of the day. Fred tells the husband about a special cemetery that were if you bury something it will come back to life. So Fred and the dad go bury the cat there. But when the cat comes back it has changed. Even the daughter notices this when she gets back. Time passes and one day while the whole family is having a picnic,Gage the little 2 year old son ends up running out into the street and getting hit by a speeding truck. So of course the Dad goes and digs up his dead body and reburies it in the "special" cemetery. Gage comes back but now he is pure evil. The special effects are great practical effects. The story is good,and the acting besides Ms Crosby is very good. Pet Sematary gets a A.

Xtreme Outlaw Wrestling show 9/02/2010 Brookhaven MS


Xtreme Outlaw Wrestling Card 09/02/2010
Lincoln Civic Center in Brookhaven MS

XOW runs shows through out Mississippi and parts of Tennessee. On Wednesday I saw a poster up at the local library. In big letters it said WWE superstars. Then listed the following wrestlers. Kid Kash,Anton Levay,Giant Hillbilly,Brian Christopher,Mr Wrestling,Doink,Chief Pierre Goldstein and The Snakeman. I saw that tickets were only 10 bucks,so I decided to go. Showed up about 40 minutes till they opened the doors. Waited in line and had a old man explain to me how wrestling has been fake since Mid South/UWF folded. Finally the doors open and I go get a seat in the front row. Behind me is a stage and on the corner of it is a old ass video camera on a tripod. Saw they had a gimmick table set up,so I walked over and checked out the merch. There was a couple of WWE DVDs that you can normally find for $5 but they wanted $10. Also they had a bunch of kids WWE shirts. About 20 of the John Cena camo baseball caps. A handful of kid sized foam WWE belts. And weirdly a bunch of rubber snakes. Not seeing anything I wanted to buy I went back to my seat and found out from the guy sitting next to me that on the 30th of this month XOW will be back in Brookhaven with a free outdoor show at a local furniture store. And they guarantee that Kamala will be at the free show. To kill sometime I take a quick count of the crowd and it is about 200 or so. Kinda funny that a tiny Indy fed in a tiny MS town can draw a bigger crowd than IWA-MS has in about a year and a half.

The show starts about 5 minutes late,and a local radio DJ is the announcer. He tells us that tonight will be a tournament for the All Pro World title. The belt looks pretty nice for such a small fed. But first off we are gonna get what he refers to as an exhibition match.

Coming to the ring first is Ron Horn,who is working a prissy heel gimmick. Then next we have Dustin Wolf,who seems to be working the typical southern face gimmick. Horn stalls and does a few comedy spots before locking up. After a couple of arm drags by Wolf the guy sitting behind me calls Horn "FAT HARDY". Which gets the crowd to start up a "FAT HARDY" chant. Both guys did a great job getting the crowd worked up with lots of interaction. After about 15 minutes of decent back and forth action ,Horn wins by holding the tights of Wolf. Fat Hardy hauls ass to the back. While Dustin walks around shaking hands with all the kids. Before the next match can start the crowd notices Horn walking outta the big bay door of the civic center,and they boo him again.

First match in the All Pro World title tournament is John Thor versus The Snakeman. Thor comes out first looking like Greg Allman and Sandman mated and produced a kid. He evens has his own version of a Singapore cane,which I swear is a cane fishing pole. Thor is obviously a heel,and starts interacting with the crowd. Then The Snakeman comes out with a big canvas drawstring bag. He opens up the bag and throws a huge snake,at least 8 foot long,into the ring. All the kids and half the adults start running up to the ring. The one guy they had working security does his best to keep the audience away from the snake. Big surprise John Thor is afraid of the snake. Finally after about 6 minutes of stalling and yelling at the crowd Thor finally gets in the ring and locks up with Snakeman. Another decent 12 minute or so match. Thor gets the cane and hits Snakeman with it 3 times,and the cane splitters. The ref signals for the end of the match,and Snakeman advances when John Thor gets DQed for using the cane.

Second match in the tournament is Jay Blade versus Anton Levay. Blade is out first and has some nice looking ring gear. Anton Levay comes out next and the guy next to me talks about how Levay looks like Fez from that 70's show. They lock up and run the ropes a few times.Levay gets thrown outta the ring and lands right in front of me. Then Jay Blade climbs to the top turnbuckle and hits Levay with a flying cross body block. They brawl around the crowd and end up on the stage behind me. Blade slams Anton off the stage to the hard concrete floor. Blade goes for another cross body and misses. They get back in the ring and Anton throw about 3 very nice looking kicks. Levay climbs the ropes and hits a frog splash for the pin. This ended up being the best match on the card,and had a nice crusierweight feel too it. After the match Anton gets on the mic and cuts a promo about how he loves wrestling in Mississippi but he hates the MS athletic commission. He mentions how lots of what he said is going over most of the crowd head.

Intermission time,and The Snakeman is out for autographs and pics. 75% of the crowd goes to get a picture made with Snakeman. I bend over to get the drink I had under my seat,and when I pick my head back up I see about 10 kids in the ring. After a few minutes some lady comes out and gets the kids outta the ring. So all the kids go over the announcer's table,which has the All Pro World title belt on it. And they take turns posing with the belt. I hear the sound of a cowbell,and see the Giant Hillbilly coming outta the back and he heads to the ring. He gets one of the mics and talks about how his opponent can't make it tonight,but he wanted to come out and thank the crowd for coming to the show tonight. Hillbilly is busy talking to the crowd when John Thor hits the ring and smacks the Giant Hillbilly 2 times with his splintered cane. Hillbilly gets pissed off and hollers at the promoter that he wants a match tonight with Thor. The promoter agrees to this and sets the match ,which will happen when intermission is over.

4th match of the card , Giant Hillbilly versus John Thor. Thor comes out first and has Jay Blade with him. Giant Hillbilly is next and he gets right in the ring,but Thor stays outside the ring and heckles a rather large lady in the front row. One of the kids on the other side of the ring from me,walks up and hands the Giant Hillbilly a rubber snake. Hillbilly gets Thor to finally get into the ring,and when Thor gets near him. Hillbilly shows him the snake. Thor runs away,and Giant Hillbilly throws the toy snake at him. After what seemed like 10 minutes of heckling the crowd,Thor gets in the ring and the match starts. Giant Hillbilly works the standard big man offence.He slams Thor a few times and does a big splash in the corner. After the splash Hillbilly gets the pin. Not that good of a match,mainly cause Hillbilly is kinda limited. But the crowd was really into the match ,and the kids were chanting "HILLBILLY" through out most of the match.

Final of the All Pro World title tournament is Anton Levay vs The Snakeman. Both guys shake hands and hug to start the match. Snakeman does lots of power moves,and Levay is all crusierweightish. The crowd seemed to be evenly split between Levay and Snakeman. After about 10 minutes of mat action ,Levay hits a good frog splash and gets the win.

Turns out that a bunch of guys no-showed. I am not sure if maybe the Athletic commission had anything to do with this. Kinda sucks that 4 guys listed on the poster weren't at the show. But the show was more than worth the 10 bucks admission.

April Fools Day 2008 remake-Sony dvd
Found this one at Big Lots a few months back for $3. I enjoyed the original so picked this up hoping it would almost as good. It comes kinda close. Movie starts off with a prank gone wrong,and someone dies. Fast forward a year,and one by one the main group of friends end up dying. Until only Desiree Cartier is left. But just like in the original there is a twist at the end. Sadly I called the twist about 10 minutes into the film. The acting was decent ,and it helps that the lady playing Desiree is smoking hot. Plus you have Scout taylor compton,who is also mega-cute. The various deaths are well staged. The dvd is barebones,no commentary,no trailer,nothing but the film. But at the cheap price I wasn't expecting much more than the film. April Fools Day 2008 gets a C+.

Christine-Encore Drama airing
I actually had planned on watching either Frankenhooker or Header today. But about 30 minutes after I woke up I noticed that Christine was airing on Encore Drama. I realized I haven't seen this movie in over 20 years. Arnie and Dennis have been friends for many many years. Then Arnie buys a beat up Plymouth Fury. Pretty quickly Arnie goes from being a nerdy little guy to being a cooler version of John Travolta in Grease. A couple of guys from the high school don't like Arnie and sneak in one night and totally destroy the car. Arnie sees this is and is devastated ,but we see the car repairing itself. A few minutes later Christine,Arnie's car,is hunting down the guys that damaged "her" and kills them all off. I had read the novel this is based on about a year or so ago. So that version of the story was fresher in my mind. And really the book is much better. In the film there really isn't a reason for Christine being able to repair "herself" or all the other supernatural abilities the car has. But in the novel you find out that the car is possessed by the spirit of it's former owner. But the film is still a fun way to pass some time and gets a B.

Sons of Anarchy Season 2 dvd


Sons of Anarchy Season 2 DVD
The week before season 3 was to start the second season of my current favorite TV shows was released to DVD. The storyline that runs through the season is great. But I figure most people reading this have already seen season 2 so I will just review all the extras. First off you have commentaries on 3 different episodes,the first episodes,episode 8 and the last episode. All of them are well done and reveal lots of behind the scenes stuff. Then you get the best extra a 40+ minute short. This gathers all the main stars,besides Kim Coates,at a local bar. And they are asked various questions the fans have sent in. Plenty of decent questions,and I learned that the guy who plays Otto,is not only the producer of the show but also Katy Segal's husband. Weirdly in this feature they have the actor that plays Deputy Hale is there,but is never asked a question and IIRC never says a word. This DVD gets a A.

Nollywood Babylon


Nollywood Babylon is about the amazing growth of the Nigerian movie industry since 1992. Nigeria is in 3rd place ,behind USA and India,in producing the most movies. The main difference between Nigeria and most other countries film output is 99% of of the Nollywood films are released straight to VCD/DVD and rarely if ever play any cinemas. Also there is a strong Evangelical Christian theme in most of the films. This documentary shows how the various directors and film crews adopt a gureilla film making approach. IE filming most of the scenes in various houses,and using lots of outdoor markets as filming locations. This documentary focuses mainly on a directer/producer named Lancelot. He has made over 150 movies so far. Most of his films take about a week to make ,and he usually makes 2 films per month. Another interesting aspect of Nollywood is all the films cost 15,000 or under. Another director profiled in this documentary uses her films to promote her church. And her films all seem to involve witchcraft and how God can save you from the evils of the black arts. This was an interesting peek into a piece of world cinema I knew nothing about. My only real complaint is the short running time. Nollywood babylon gets a B+.

I love cheap DVDs part 1

The last 6 weeks I have managed to acquire a nice stack of cheap ,$5 and under,dvds. First off I found at a local Movie Gallerys closing sale.

Cemetery Man-Anchor Bay-OOP and one that I missed. Had the cashier check and this had been rented only 7 times since they got it. Cost $5

Let the right one in-Magnet-Been wanting to see this. And had many many people recommend it to me. Cost $5

The King of Kong:A fistful of quarters-New Line-Been wanting to get this one. And it has 2 commentaries and a reversible cover. Cost $5

4-film pack featuring,My best friend is a vampire,Repossessed,Slaughter High Uncut edition,Silent Night Deadly Night 3.Already own SNDN 3 on the recently released 3 pack of the final 3 SNDN sequels. But I figured at 1.25 a movie it was worth getting again. Mainly bought this to replace my "Slaughter High" and "Repossessed" pre-records. Cost $5

Then on a trip to Biloxi,I went to the local Big Lots. Got the following for $3 each.

976-evil-Columbia Tristar-I remembering watching this on Showtime years ago. And for 3 bucks,thought it was worth picking up.

Innocent Blood-Warner brothers-Another I remember seeing on Showtime. Haven't seen it in about 15 years,but do remember liking it last time I saw it.

Career Opportunities-Universal-One of the more under-rated John Hughs movies. It seems like back in the mid 90's this was on cable every other day.

Bloody Murder-Artisan-Never saw this ,but saw Bloody Murder 2. Always here about how bad this is,and seems to be OOP.

April Fools Day 2008-Sony-I enjoyed the original. Haven't seen this one either,but it cost me the price of a rental to buy it.


Then finally,ran by a Movie Gallery in Biloxi. Only got one thing and it was still sealed.

Ghost House Underground Double Feature,Jack Ketchum's Offspring and Seventh Moon-Lionsgate-Been wanting to get Offspring for over a year. And the cheapest I have found it was around 14 bucks. But Movie Gallery had this brand new for $9.50. Haven't seen Seventh Moon,but was more than happy to pay 9 and change for Offspring.

Supreme:Story of the year


Supreme:Story of the Year

written by Alan Moore
art by various artists


This is a trade reprinting the first 13 issues of Alan Moore's revamp of Rob Liefield's bad ripoff of Superman. Alan starts it off with a clean slate,and we find out that Supreme has been away in space for almost 30 years,and has huge chunks of his memory missing. Over the course of 13 issues we are introduced to the various people that are part of Supreme's world. In his secret identity Supreme works as a comic artist on the Omniman title for dazzler comics. Omniman seems to be a thinly veiled ripoff of Superman. We also meet the current writer on Omniman who is a British man. And who I think is heavily based on Grant Morrison. Moore leaves various little clues through out the first 5 or so issues in the collection on how this storyline will end. Things like mentions of various superheroes that Supreme teamed with back in the 40's,50's,and 60s that has disappeared without a trace. Or when Supreme meets his old high school sweethart that lives in his hometown,and runs a Supreme Museum. Throw away mentions of stuff like how Supreme's mortal enemy Daris Dox has died,turn out to be major clues to what will happen later. Moore also tries his best to work in all the corny stuff that was in the fore front of the silver age Superman stories. And unlike those corny ass Superman stories Moore makes them work. Like how Moore takes the concept of Superman/Supreme having a dog that has the same superpowers. Superman had Krypto and Supreme has Radar. But thanks to Alan Moore's writing talent Radar turns out to be a vital part of the story,were as Krypto seemed more like a gimmick. Moore has also through out this storyline had flashbacks to various adventures of Supreme from before he left for his journey through space. And all these flashbacks take on the form of comics,which are done in the style of comics of the eras the stories are set in. Moore also takes two other Liefield creations,Diehard and Glory,and turns them from one note hero/heroines and fleshes them out. Then in the last two issues we get the last parts of the puzzle,and can now see how Moore has been leading up to the final big conflict with one of Supreme's biggest enemies. Another aspect of the trade that I liked was how Alan Moore has thrown in subtle references to various comics artist of the silver age. The art is good to great,I still wonder why it seems no artist managed to stay on the book for more than a few issues. But even with the artist changing every few issues it is still well drawn,and the flashbacks look exactly like the eras they are supposed to have happened in. I give Supreme:story of the year a A.

WWF Wrestling Challenge 5-27-89


Another day another episode of WWF Wrestling Challenge.This one is from 5/27/89. We start off with a match featuring Jake "the Snake" Roberts vs Tom Burton. Not as good as the Jake match on the other episode I watched,but even with a crappy jobber Jake can entertain. Next up is Big John Studd Vs an unnamed Jobber. Well first off I have never been a fan of Studd,he has to be one of the most boring big men in wrestling history. Yeah I know he was better than Giant Gonzalez,but at least Gonzalez had the "Freak show" factor. Anyway boring match,I am sure Big John Dudd won. Now it's time for a tag team match up first is Akeem and Big Bossman AKA the Twin Towers.I never got that name as a kid or even now,it ain't like either of them are really tall. They are facing a jobber team of JT thomas,who isn't that annoying kid from Home Improvement,and Red Tyler. Bossman is one of the few "fat" men that I found enjoyable. And Akeem who is a much better worker than Bossman is great,with all his mannerism and just his whole gimmick of being a black man trapped in a big fat pasty white body. The Twin Towers win,and so far this has been the best match on the show. JT Thomas takes nice bumps,and Red isn't bad for a late 80's WWF jobber. Great we hear music that sounds like rooster's crowing so that means the Red Rooster is on his way to the ring. Growing up in the Mid South/UWF territory I saw a bunch of Terry Taylor. And I was majorly dissapointed when he came to WWF and became one of the worst gimmicks ever. Well this match has him fighting Tim Stock. Even though Taylor is a good worker,you can tell he just doesn't care. The match was total shit.Now on to Curt "Mr Perfect" Henning vs Frank Delfalco. Curt is as always amazing. Delfalco is kinda a Northeast indy "legend". IIRC he also goes by Frankie "the Thumper" Defalco. Good match ,that Curt wins with the Perfectplex. I forgot to mention that earlier we get Mean Gene interviewing Zeus. And there has also been 3 different segments talking about "No Holds Barred". Time for the main event, and just like the last Wrestling Challenge I watched it is a shithole of a match. We get Hillbilly Jim vs another unnamed jobber. Match starts off with Jim wanting to shake hands. Does Jim think this is the early days of ROH? This match like all other HillbillyJim matches I have seen is horrible. Thankfully it is very short. This episode is noticeably better than the last one I watched and gets a B-.
