Your leading character, Ed, has had a pretty tragic life. As a boy, Ed accidently shot and killed his mother with a rifle while trying to clean it as a surprise for his father’s birthday. Fast forward about 15 years later, Ed is asked by his father to close up his beach house for the winter. “I’ve got a bad feeling about this.” says Ed.
What Ed and his friends don’t know is that Ed’s dad is a homicidal maniac who still holds a grudge against his son. Despite early signs of things that are clearly about to go terribly wrong in this beach house (missing battle axe, picture of a dead body...

Genre fans have a quiet week of home entertainment releases ahead of them as February 16th features only a handful of horror and sci-fi Blu-ray and DVD offerings. That being said, cult and classic horror film fanatics should be ecstatic with several of the Blus coming out on Tuesday, including The Vincent Price Collection III, The Mutilator, Curse of the Faceless Man and My Science Project, featuring none other than the legendary Dennis Hopper.
Other releases this week include Estranged and Riddle Room.

When it comes to infamous VHS boxes from the 1980′s, The Mutilator is ever so memorable. I can’t tell you how badly I wanted to get that movie into my Vcr. Every trip to the video store was met with a firm and resounding rejection of this movie with the gorgeous cover art. After years of keenly fingering the box my prayers remained unanswered and gradually my parents wore me out. I no longer asked if could rent The Mutilator. I settled for Violent Shit and The Traces of Death (you’d think they would have read the description or even the titles on those). Years would pass and I would eventually get my hands on this gem and currently own a hand crafted Vhsps copy complete with green bikini babe and gaff hook wielded by a very unhappy hand. It’s not a perfect movie. It’s not even a good movie,...

…the only thing we can do is play the song.
Alright now. For all you boppers out there in the big web city, all you internet people with an ear for action, I’ve got something for you. It’s a special for that real live bunch from Coney. (And there ends my near-aimless, only-amusing-to-me riff on Lynne Thigpen in The Warriors.)
The Cinefamily (hosts of our mighty live event) have — on their excellent and revamped website — just launched a new, monthly podcast dedicated to the deepest and best soundtrack cuts. It’s a full hour of music that’s great all the way through. Here’s what you get in the podcast, hosted by The Cinefamily’s Bret:
Son of Dracula – Daybreak (Harry Nilsson)
The Cannonball Run – Cannonball (Ray Stevens)
Perfect Strangers – I’m A Shadow on the Walls of the City (Michael Minard)
