Up now it’s the 8th place in the highly read and commented upon MST3K: MT10. Well, highly read is disputable, but it’s certainly received loads of comments. All of them contain the words Viagra, Penis Enlargement, pharma and similar popular terms.

So, without further delays, here’s number 8. I know it stars Robert Z’Dar, but I can’t remember if it stars Ving Rhames or not. It’s the movie that delivers more “huh?”’s per second. It’s not the future, there’s no war, it’s… Read More…

Santa’s Slay – David Steiman

When the Devil’s son loses a bet to an angel Santa Claus is born. The violent, brutal kid of Satan is trapped in the role of friendly, jolly, gift giving Santa for 1000 years. This Christmas, the 1000th year is up. Back to his usual devilish ways, Christmas for Hell Township is not going to be full of cheer, but fear as Santa hunts his old nemesis, killing and punning his way through the population before the final showdown.

From the opening scene there’s little doubt as to what you can expect of the remaining 75 minutes. A big burly Santa killing people in very festive, and often highly amusing ways, with a little plot advancement thrown in for good measure.
And like almost every slasher film, little plot is right. Someone with a grievance comes hunting for the one who wronged him, killing all that get in the way. You’ve seen it way too often. Sometimes you get something worthwhile. Occasionally you get something outstanding. More often than not, though, you get crap. This falls in the area where crap and worthwhile overlap.

And in 9th place in the munch anticipated MT10 it’s a movie with Tony Zarindast’s stink all over it.
It stars one of the lesser Estevez clan.
He’s not taking souls with Robert Z’Dar so that must mean… Read More…
