PRIMAL RAGE (1988) - Episode 316 - Decades of Horror 1980s
Decades of Horror | Horror News Radio
PRIMAL RAGE (1988) is a horror movie that gets very little mention, accolades, or fanfare. Many horror fans may not have heard of the film, instead maybe they recall the 1995 video came or 2018 movie of the same name. For this episode, Bill steps up and declare "The Grue-Crew shall watch Primal Rage!" And so we did. What did we find: Mad scientists, crazed baboons, a rage virus turning college students into rampaging zombie-like monsters, and a gore-soaked Halloween party. Let's party! Enjoy!

THE REVENGE OF DOCTOR X (1970) - Episode 272 - Decades of Horror 1970s
Decades of Horror | Horror News Radio
Is this even a real movie? Ed Wood? The Grue-Crew set out to find out, reviewing the schlock fest known by many names: THE REVENGE OF DR X (1970), BODY OF THE PREY, THE DEVIL'S GARDEN, and VENUS FLY TRAP. Which ever title it is under, the result is the same: the most bizarre and god awful film of all time; yet, somehow, it is entertaining in its terrible glory. James Craig is a mad NASA scientist who seems to take up botany and creates a hybrid creature as if he were Dr. Frankenstein. WTF? Check out what the Crew think on this one. You have been warned. Enjoy! THE REVENGE OF DOCTOR X (1970)...

DEVIL GIRL FROM MARS (1954) - Episode 233 - Decades of Horror The Classic Era
Decades of Horror | Horror News Radio
Bill picks one of his favorite British Sci-Fi/Horror classics, DEVIL GIRL FROM MARS (1954). Yup, Plan Nyah from Outer Space is on our streaming devices... and we love it. Sure, it is low budget. Sure, it is campy. This little gem is pure B-movie gold. An obnoxious, yet oddly beautiful, nutzo alien woman from Mars lands in the Scottish Highlands looking for men. Odd choice, but let's go with it. It's not long before she realized this was a mistake and she's ready to disintegrate them all.... all 7 or 8 of them. Poor, misguided alien. Hijinks ensue and the Grue-Crew are here to share their...

They are joined by Meg Tilly, Robert Loggia, and Dennis Franz. Richard (Patrick, Road Games) Franklin directs from a Tom (Fright Night, Child's Play) Holland screenplay. The tables are turned and Norman Bates is now the prey... or is he? Mystery, plot twists, and mayhem ensue. Check out what the Crew think of this one as they discuss their first reactions, the cast of characters, and the stories behind the filming,...

AMITYVILLE 3-D (1983) - Episode 314 - Decades of Horror 1980s
Decades of Horror | Horror News Radio
The 3D craze was brief in the 1980s and the output quality was questionable, but the run was fun for all the wrong reasons. Among Friday the 13th part III, Jaws 3D, and Parasite, was AMITYVILLE 3D and the Grue-Crew are ready to investigate all the shenanigans. The film is from accomplished director Richard Fleisher and the cast includes Tony Roberts, Tess Harper, Candy Clark, and Robert Joy. And, in an early role, Meg Ryan appears alongside Lori Loughlin. The film has an unjust bad reputation, but it's much better then you'd expect. Some of the effects are laughable, while others are downright...

MADHOUSE (1974) - Episode 270 - Decades of Horror 1970s
Decades of Horror | Horror News Radio
For this episode, Doc picks MADHOUSE (1974), an Amicus / AIP horror film with a notorious reputation. Who knew? On set conflicts, heavy editing from the production team, Dr. Phibes director drops out with a celebrated editor taking the reins, and a script that was being rewritten every day are just some of the things that troubled this shoot. But what does the film have going for it? At it's core, it is a splendid idea, the locations and designs are often well done, and the cast is remarkable: Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Robert Quarry, and Adrienne Corri. And then there's the "horror icon"...

Decades of Horror | Horror News Radio
Crystal picks the cult classic slasher film THE SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE (1982) for the Grue-Crew to review this week. This movie has some bizarre background and strong reactions. Does the film live up to its reputation? Does the film actually come across as either a parody or a feminist horror movie? The debate is on with this review as the crew also explores the taglines, the cast of characters, the promotion and posters along with the cast and crew. And what's up with the oversized drill with a never-draining battery? Huh, huh, huh? It's a great discussion and should not be missed. Enjoy! THE...
