Maskhead (2009) by Scott Swan and Fred Vogel

Director : Scott Swan, Fred Vogel Year : 2009 Country : USA Alternate Titles : N/A Genre : Exploitation Plot : Using a modeling group as a front, two women decide to embark on a side project making snuff films of their oblivious and sexed-up costars, unaware of their true intentions, feeding their victims to a hulking, masked maniac who derives gruesome pleasure in their dismemberment. Review : Overall, this is a wholly enjoyable and exciting effort with a lot to like about it. The main focus of this one is the creation of the kind of sleazy, adult-entertainment environment where it makes the exploitation of women feel quite natural and expected. The modeling gigs and the different interviews looking at the girls and guys auditioning to be in the adult entertainment industry offer the kind of grimy, hardcore sex environment that would make it perfectly believable that they would get away with their content as much as they do. With the blissfully unaware victims thinking they’re going t...

Wrong Turn 3: Left for Dead (2009) by Declan O'Brien

Director : Declan O'Brien Year : 2009 Country : Germany/USA/Bulgaria Alternate Titles : N/A Genre : Slasher Plot : While en route to a prisoner transfer, a group of thugs and police officers find themselves stranded in the woods with a cannibalistic mutant that's trying to kill them off one by one, and must try to survive against the relentless killer. Review : There was a lot to really like in this one, as there are plenty of good parts here. One of the better parts is the rather fun action scenes here which give this one quite a lot of impressive scenes in here. The opening attack on the campers at the lake works well with the suddenness of his ambush out of the forest as well as the slaughter rampage against them, the car chase to force them into the predicament is a lot of fun and there's a lot of action-packed encounters in the woods as his guerrilla warfare style of attack is a great deal of fun which makes the film stand out. There are some great surprise ambushes wh...

Rape Zombie: Lust of the Dead (2012) by Naoyuki Tomomatsu

Director : Naoyuki Tomomatsu Year : 2012 Country : Japan Alternate Title : Reipu Zonbi: Lust of the Dead Genre : Zombie, Exploitation Plot : Following a nuclear attack in Tokyo, a nurse and several other women find themselves as well as any woman in the city under attack by zombified men looking to rape any woman around them and must find a way of stopping their violent outbursts to get away alive. Review : This one wasn't that bad but did have its flaws. It presents a rather strong central group of characters that, shockingly, generate some nice audience empathy. Nozomi is the clear badass of the group, taking charge and offering leadership with her calm, yet stern demeanor in the face of the ongoing situation, as the early flashback showing her handling a horde of zombies coming after her and the other patients in her hospital, gives her a chance to highlight these skills nicely. Initially, Momoko appears as a cold-hearted skeptic, unable to accept what's goi...
