the unseen (1980)

On January 22, 2024January 21, 2024 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED17 Comments

Three attractive women who work at a tv station head off to cover some sort of Bavarian carnival in Southern California. As soon as they get there they realize - “Fuck! There’s nowhere to sleep” so they head off to the next town and then the next before they are resigned to just sleep in …

no one will save you (2023)

On November 20, 2023November 18, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED9 Comments

Huh. Well. It seems like a lot of people really like this movie. Of course, I just watched it and it just came out and I write so slow that it will probably take two months to publish this thing but this place gives me a chance to do some writing and try to keep …

i eat bugs and rip your arms off. i’m renfield.

On November 13, 2023November 12, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED6 Comments

Let's just start this of honestly - I didn't love it. I wanted to, but I didn't. As much as I like Cage, I thought he was too hammy in this one which wasn't helped by a strange appearance he did on some talk show I never watch where he was acting uppity and wanted …

cobra (1986)

On October 16, 2023October 15, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED13 Comments

I’ll get this off my hairy chest - I like Sylvester Stallone. I’m sure it goes back to my childhood experience with Rocky but I like Sly and won’t apologize. I don’t know why I feel obligated to say that but we have this very opinionated friend who comes over here and there and her …

the falling (aka alien predator) (1986)

On October 9, 2023October 8, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED10 Comments

I don’t remember how this came around - I was probably loitering at the bowling alley or smoking behind the gas station or drinking beer on the roof of someone’s house and throwing bottle caps at cars or running naked through that bar that had two doors or stealing those old standup ashtrays from that …

the last matinee (2020)

On September 11, 2023September 10, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED10 Comments

For this piece I'm going to try and write this entire thing without using the letter E (lower or upper). In this coming of age story - well oops I fucked that up. In The Last Matinee, a youngish girl gives her grandpa some relief by sitting in the projection booth of an old theater …

the seed (2021)

On July 24, 2023July 23, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED14 Comments

How do I start off this piece about this strange movie? Do I say: OMFG! THISWASBALLSOUTAWESOME! Because it wasn’t really but I thought it was very pleasing and I liked several of the things they did in here. Do I need to remind anyone who dares to come here that I like movies like The …

undead (2003)

On April 24, 2023April 23, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED19 Comments

This came out 20 years ago?? *dies* Jeez. What were you doing 20 years ago? We had just bought our house. I was starting a new career that I’m no longer in - the unbelievably exciting work of telephone numbers. My first cat was still with me. I smoked. I put blond highlights in my …

we are what we are (2010)

On March 13, 2023March 12, 2023 By eric undeadIn AT LEAST THEY TRIED16 Comments

Today I thought I’d try something new and go a little more traditional for this piece. I mean, I’m sure Apu Punchau and the guy who killed himself in the bucket of beans will make a return at some point but let’s see how this cozy, home style cannibalism thing went. So this dirty, older …
