WOW. My jaw is still dropped. I wouldn't necessarily classify this movie scary, as it takes quite a bit these days to give me a fright, but “Crushed” came pretty damn close. Imagine “Fatal Attraction” mixed with “May” and “Hostel” if you can. There is nothing original about the story itself. Clint Eastwood made his directorial debut in 1971 with “Play Misty For Me”, which is really where “Crushed” gets its roots. There are only so many ways you can tell the same story without diluting its impact, but “Crushed” managed to take things a step further than any of its predecessors. Its originality comes solely from the brutality of the film.  Patrick Johnson managed to immortalize most men's worst nightmare on film in a very real and brutal way (well, “Teeth” might actually take the cake on that one, but I digress....).

Natalie Dickinson takes the role of psychotic female to a whole new level. I am so disappointed that I am just now hearing about about the promotional campaign on YouTube leading up to the films release. For three years Natalie posted videos as Tara showing her slowly start sinking into insanity. Fantastic concept and unbelievable marketing tool taking a remarkable amount of dedication on her part. I must say I found the rest of the cast to be pretty weak with the exception of Ray's friend at work(who's name I can't recall and IMDB isn't telling me). That dude cracked me up.

Overall, “Crushed”, aka "She's Crushed" proves that a good horror movie can still be made for $200 and five cases of beer. The gore and effects aren't great and the acting is nothing special, but “Crushed” is a definite must see. I give it a 7/10 for its shock value alone.

In the sleepy town of Riverton, legend tells of a serial killer who swore he would return to murder the seven children born the night he died. Now, 16 years later, people are disappearing again. Has the psychopath been reincarnated as one of the seven teens, or did he survive the night he was left for dead? Only one of the kids knows the answer. Adam "Bug" Heller (Max Thieriot) was supposed to die on the bloody night his father went insane. Unaware of his dad's terrifying crimes, he has been plagued by nightmares since he was a baby. But if Bug hopes to save his friends from the monster that's returned, he must face an evil that won't rest...until it finishes the job it began the day he was born.

"Heads Will Rock... and Roll!"

"Deadtime" from director Tony Jopia is due out sometime in 2011. From the looks of it, appears to be a pretty badass new slasher coming out of the UK.

This is absolutely hilarious. Great job to whoever put it together.

Trailer for the upcoming third installment in the Lost Boys saga.

Details available at IMDB

Rot Town is a horror short written by Brady Sadler and Directed Justin Lucas. It offers a noirish take on the zombie genre, that while low on budget is still high on ambition. With a running time of 40 minutes, the film delivers a few classic budget kills, some cool locations, watchable performances from Adam Sadler, Mitchell Lucas, James Shields and Chris Hall, and most notably excellent camera work. Overall, I think Rot Town is a little guilty of spreading itself thin, but a very good effort given the budget restraints. There is a creative chemistry between Lucas and Sadler that shows real potential and I would love to see what they could do with a bigger budget. Rot Town is a good start to what I hope will be a bright future for these two aspiring filmmakers.
