Why the Zombie is an Evergreen of Horror

Parents (1989)

Assignment Horror

It was 1989. Someone somewhere decided that a movie about a Leave it to Beaverfamily in the 1950s who were actually cannibals murdering people to make leftovers out of was a good idea. Moviegoing audiences in 1989 didn’t seem to think it was a good idea, but, eventually, thanks to home video and cable television, it found a loyal audience who did think it was a good idea. That film was 1989’s Parents.

Toy Review – Savage World Mortal Kombat X from Funko

NEEDLESS THINGS

These vintage Masters of the Universe-inspired figures caught my eye from the second I saw them at Toy Fair or SDCC or wherever they were first shown off.

The Assignment: Horror Podcast- The Keep

Assignment Horror

This time around the crew discusses one of the great so bad it’s good films in the form of The Keep. Intended by Michael Mann  to be his epic entry into the horror genre, it quickly devolved into a studio politics mess that everyone involved has disavowed over the years. So, of course, a good chunk of the Assignment: Horror crew love it. But will Richard be one of the ones who loves it after seeing it for the first time just before the recording of the podcast.

They’re Not Bad, They Were Just Filmed That Way- Dracula vs Frankenstein (1971ish)

A film so bad that has to be seen to be believed.

Assignment Horror

Holy mother of god awful… They don’t make films like Dracula vs Frankenstein anymore, and that’s probably a good thing. There’s a special class of so bad they’re good films from the old days where you look at them and realize that they weren’t so much released into theaters as they escaped. You watch them and wonder how anyone in their right mind thought the film in question was suitable for public consumption. Dracula vs Frankenstein is a movie that sits damned near at the very front of that class.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina

Assignment Horror

Have you seen the ads for this? Are you excited? If you’re a fan of good horror, you should be. It’s based on a comic series that you need to track down and read if you’re a horror fan. Hopefully, the TV series is close to the quality of the comic series, because, if it is, this could be an amazing contribution to horror television.
