In this review, we’re taking a look at Inquisition (1976), the gothic Euro-horror film written and directed by legendary Spanish horror icon Paul Naschy.

Set during a plague-ridden witch hunt in medieval France, Inquisition follows Bernard de Fossey, an inquisitor tasked with rooting out witchcraft and heresy. When tragedy strikes a young woman named Catherine, she turns to dark forces for answers, setting off a chain of events involving Satanic pacts, religious hypocrisy, witch trials, occult rituals, torture chambers, and plenty of classic 1970s European horror atmosphere.

We’ll discuss Paul Naschy’s dual performance as both Bernard de Fossey and Satan, the film’s themes of religious paranoia and corruption, its incredible gothic visuals, memorable occult imagery, and why this strange blend of witchcraft horror and historical drama remains a favorite among Euro-horror fans.

If you’re a fan of Paul Naschy, Spanish horror, witchcraft movies, folk horror, occult cinema, Mondo Macabro releases, or classic European horror films from the 1970s, this is a movie worth checking out.

What do glam metal, Faustian bargains, Traci Lords, and soul-stealing rock stars have in common? They’re all packed into 1991’s Shock ‘Em Dead, one of the strangest cult horror movies of the VHS era.

In this review and retrospective, we’re diving into Shock ‘Em Dead (1991), a bizarre heavy metal horror film that combines Satanic deals, over-the-top rock stardom, outrageous kills, campy humor,

and plenty of early-’90s excess. When struggling guitarist Martin sells his soul for talent, fame, and fortune, he transforms into Angel Martin—a guitar-shredding rock god with a deadly secret.

We’ll discuss the film’s cast, including Traci Lords, Stephen Quadros, Aldo Ray, and Shaun Donahue, explore the movie’s unforgettable hair-metal atmosphere, and talk about the surprising involvement of legendary guitarist Michael Angelo Batio. Along the way we’ll cover the outrageous performances, ridiculous plot twists, memorable kills, and everything that makes Shock ‘Em Dead such a beloved cult horror oddity.

If you’re a fan of cult movies, VHS horror, heavy metal horror films, B-movies, Tubi horror, direct-to-video classics, or forgotten gems from the late ’80s and early ’90s, this is one you won’t want to miss.

Before Jason Voorhees stalked Camp Crystal Lake and before the slasher boom of the 1980s changed horror forever, there was The Massage Parlor Murders (1973)—a forgotten horror film that feels like a strange bridge between exploitation cinema and the slashers that would follow.

In this horror movie retrospective, I take a look at one of the most obscure horror movies of the 1970s. Set in the seedy streets of pre-cleanup Times Square, this New York exploitation film combines murder mystery thrills, sleaze, violence, and an atmosphere that feels pulled directly from the grindhouse era.

While it never achieved the cult status of films like Maniac, Basket Case, or The Last House on the Left, The Massage Parlor Murders remains a fascinating piece of cult horror history. Between its gritty street photography, funky jazz soundtrack, and proto-slasher elements, it’s easy to see why modern labels like Vinegar Syndrome have helped introduce the film to a new generation of horror fans.

If you’re interested in forgotten horror movies, grindhouse horror, exploitation films, cult cinema, Vinegar Syndrome releases, 1970s horror, New York exploitation movies, or obscure horror recommendations, this is definitely a film worth discussing.

What do you think? Is The Massage Parlor Murders an overlooked cult classic, or is it simply an interesting relic of the grindhouse era?

Today we’re diving into the gloriously sleazy, totally over-the-top cult classic Reform School Girls—a campy parody of the women-in-prison movies that dominated exploitation cinema in the 1970s.

Directed by Tom DeSimone, the film cranks every genre trope to absurd levels: corrupt wardens, brutal matrons, yard politics, rebellion, and pure grindhouse chaos. Instead of playing it straight, the movie leans hard into satire—turning the entire women-in-prison formula into a wild, tongue-in-cheek spectacle.

The film stars shock-rock legend Wendy O. Williams of The Plasmatics, who basically plays an amped-up version of herself as the terrifying yard boss Charlie. Alongside her are Sybil Danning as the leather-clad authoritarian warden and Pat Ast as the sadistic head matron running the place.

The movie even features appearances from actors connected to the Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning and Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives universe, making it a fun curiosity for slasher fans as well as exploitation lovers.

In this episode we break down:

The ridiculous tropes of women-in-prison movies
Why this film works as both parody and exploitation
The chaotic presence of Wendy O. Williams
The outrageous final prison riot
And why trash cinema like this is sometimes the most fun of all

If you enjoy cult movies, exploitation cinema, and bizarre 80s oddities, this one is definitely worth a watch.

Thanks for watching!
