Perfect low budget mishmash of Halloween set spooky haunted house satanic ritual slasher by the cemetery children in peril zombie jam from Ruben Galindo Jr. and it’s a charming treat. Opens with a George Eastman lookalike psycho killer who uses his weirdo hand to fulci throat slash before switching gears to Jabroni teens stealing a body and reading the Latin in a spookshow party house—that’s never a good idea. 

That first act is still a little slow but things escalate from there and that last act is dynamite—easily bringing a smile to my face with its terrific low budge atmos, gore soaked kills, and ghoul filled graveyard. What an absolute delight this goofy movie is... the kind of filmmaking that doesn’t…

If you’re in a horror movie, in a dilapidated house, and you come across a book called something like ‘summon this killer demon leader of the dead’ and then you decide to read from it for laughs…well then, you’re an idiot then you deserve everything that happens to your dumb ass. You know who doesn’t deserve to suffer though? All the women around you that told you not to do it. And yet, who ends up suffering? Well, pretty much everyone. But you get my point.

It's a mid eighties Mexican hodgepodge of slasher and zombie influences. It’s a little Evil Dead, a little bit House by the Cemetery, a little bit Night of the Living Dead, a little bit…

Decent little supernatural slasher to go along with spooky season. In a way this felt like two different movies. First half follows a serial killer raised from the dead that stalks group of partiers in an abandoned house. The second half follows a group of young kids venturing through a cemetery that get chased by the dead emerging from their graves. It’s kind of like the Spanish mashup of Halloween and Night of the Living Dead.  On the downside, the setup takes way too long. I think it was about 45 minutes before any of the partiers are killed at the abandoned house. There was a long setup involving a supposed jet set party, (whatever that is) to coax…

Cemetery of Terror is like a cheesier 80s slasher version of House by the Cemetery and Absurd. The impressive gore, creepy POV shots, spooky haunted house, and the subtle monster hand stabbing and mauling the shit out of people...once again I'm impressed by another film from Ruben Galindo Jr. This guy knew how to craft an entertaining supernatural shlockfest like nobody's business!!

The slow build up of creepy atmosphere and horny teen hijinks perfectly leads into all of the graveyard zombie insanity that follows. The zombie designs look amazing and that frantic synth score melted my mind in a magical manner. And that main zombie dude totally reminded me of George Eastman!

And yo those kids trick or treating are…

I am not one to dispense dating advice but if you are a bunch of college dudes and your girlfriends are all excited to go to a rock concert on Halloween Night that you are not going to it is always a terrible idea to tell them lies about the fabulous jet-set party you are all going to go to instead in order to lure them to the creepy abandoned house down the block to try and score some Halloween Action but if you choose this path, not only should you accept that your girlfriends are going to be pretty upset with you for lying as well for being in some creepy abandoned house rather than a rock concert and…

“Tonight we will do something special.”

Alright alright alright!
I hope everyone got everything they wanted and more during the Vinegar Syndrome Black Friday sale! 

You’re gonna wanna add this to your October watchlist because this bad boy takes place on our beloved Halloween night, the best time of the year, there’s Jack-o-lanterns and curfews set, the fogs rolling in, teenagers decide to steal a corpse. The whole sha-bang!
When given the opportunity to either go to a rock concert with your friends or party at an abandoned house by a cemetery where you find a book called ‘Devlon’ (aka The Necronomicon) and summon a murderer, which would you ACTUALLY do? 

Cemetery of Terror is all blood and carnage, jam…

"Cemetery of Terror" or "‘Cementerio del terror" is a 1985 supernatural horror film directed by Ruben Galindo Jr. Taking a few rounds with Galindo family movies before (as it spans generations), I've come to know an assortment of them that are fun for their efforts and some that are a chore to get through. The Cardona family films (same kind of setup) exists in this formulated way as well, so often I also have to double check which family is directing what when it comes to Mexican horror features as that both are staples within that genre. For Galindo Jr. specifically, I had previously seen "Don't Panic" (1998) which I enjoyed and "The Demon Rat" (1992) which sort of fell…

Well, hi there.
Time to dive into another obscure gem or maybe a good B-movie from Mexico.
I saw this described as Halloween meets The Beyond so of course I had to watch it. I mean I love The Beyond so you can pretty much catch me with that. Anyways, I rented it on Amazon so I had the pleasure of listening to the German 80s dub which was absolutely glorious and the icing on the cake.
Would love to watch this in it's original glory one day.

This of course was in contemplation for Hooptober but I didn't have space anymore so we're pre-gaming with it instead.

On Halloween, a group of "teens" (minimum 25+ years old lookswise) steal…
