RE-ANIMATOR
1985 / d. Stuart Gordon

Jeffrey Combs stars as Dr. Herbert West, the proverbial mad scientist, in this off-the-wall, no-holds-barred classic of the horror genre. Hilariously warped, brilliantly acted, and diabolically demented, RE-ANIMATOR marks a high point for horror in the 80s. Gruesome special effects coupled with creative camera angles and director Stuart Gordon's natural sense of timing, led to some the most outlandish and memorable scenes to be put on celluloid. Love it. Caress it. Watch it!

THE REDSIN TOWER
2006 / d. Fred Vogel

If you've noticed, there aren't a lot of films that get perfect 10's on our GORE SCORE. However, you can pretty much bet the farm that anything from Fred Vogel and Toe Tag Pictures is going to snag top marks when it comes to repulsive, bile inducing, ultra-traumatizing gore. Vogel, armed with a natural zest for dynamic filmmaking, is hacking through every good-taste boundary there is. His films are vile, despicable, often impossible to watch in one sitting, and contain more putrid violence in five minutes than the entire FRIDAY THE 13TH series combined. THE REDSIN TOWER, while far more accessible than his infamously controversial AUGUST UNDERGROUND, still delivers the goods and is guaranteed to satisfy even the most desensitized of gorehounds.

RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD
1985 / d. Dan O'Bannon

A quintessential American horror classic, this vigorously paced horror/comedy is ridiculous fun to watch. A well chosen punk-rock soundtrack drives the film steadily along, while solid performances and some typically eighties special effects blend together to create one of the best zombie films in the history of the genre. "More BRAAAAAINS!"
