Takashi Miike's "Gozu" and Shane Ryan's "Amateur Porn Star Killer" back in stores. On December 8, 2009 Takashi Miike's "Gozu" will be re-released in a brand new special 2-disc edition. The new DVD will keep the special features from the original release, including interviews by Eli Roth ("Hostel"), Guillermo Del Toro ("Hellboy") and Miike ("Sukiyaki Western Django" with Quentin Tarantino), along with a featurette, still galleries and more, but will now feature 2 Hours of never before seen behind the scenes footage. Back in stores this week after a 6 month ban is Shane Ryan's underground horror hit "Amateur Porn Star Killer". Released in November of 2007, the $45 budgeted indie flick instantly became a hit selling out of stock everywhere. A sequel was released just 6 months later,... »

Sorry this dvd list is coming at you a little later than usual gang, but between fighting with Microsoft about constantly holding my emails in queue and... well that's it actually.
Anyhoo, first on our list of must-see DVDs this week is the 50s spoof flick, Alien Trespass by director R.W. Goodwin. For reasons unknown Image Ent. have given it the "serious" cover you see before you, but rest assured this is definitely a B-movie riff so prepare to giggle.
Alright, moving on we finally have a release of Azazel Jacobs' 2005 existential coming of age film, The Good Times Kid. It has been garnering solid reviews since premiering on the festival circuit and honestly we've been trying to get a screener for ages to no avail. Thank you you beautiful pepole at Benten Films!
Now one for the ladies! Yep, Edward and Bella are back on DVD this week »

Greetings Fango Fiends, Phantom Jammers, and all lovers of that which is slightly more macabre. It's time once again for another installment of Fangoria Musick's Lists Of Doom - the column where we track down some of your favorite (or soon-to-be favorite) bands to get their thoughts on on the world of horror, and which films scare them.
For our Big sixteenth edition, we have a very special guest. A regular on TV 18's highly-rated Uncle Seymour Coffins' Creature Feature, we recently had the honor of sitting down with Cushing Clegg. Yes, you know him as the Captain, of Captain Clegg and The Night Creatures...
Capt. Clegg's List Of Doom (in no particular order)
Night Of The Living Dead (1968)
Here's an unassailable classic that not only remains one of the best horror movies of all time, but a fixture of smart and riveting American independent cinema. With an African-American protagonist, »

Bafflingly, strange, horrific and at times darkly funny...Takashi Miike’s Gozu is returning to R1 DVD, with a new release through cult movie label Cinema Epoch. If you’re just starting out to explore the strange wacky world of Miike films, Gozu might not be the best film to start with, but initiates into his uniquely skewed and perplexing style will no doubt love it. When young yakuza Minami is ordered by his gang boss to permanently assassinate his own superior Ozaki (who also happens to be his closest friend) Minami’s target disappears on the way to the place of “removal.” Setting out to search for his missing friend leads him into a mysterious town filled with lowlifes, oddballs, mother's milk and a cow-headed Demon. »

Yes, kids, Tokyo Zombie is now on shelves and the time has come to announce the winners of our DVD giveaway contest. To win all you had to do was name three films that Show Aikawa starred in for Takashi Miike, which I realized was a stupid question that could be answered by simply saying “The Dead Or Alive trilogy” shortly after people started doing exactly that. I was thinking more along the lines of Gozu, Zebraman, Waru etc, myself, though I honestly don’t recommend watching Waru. It’s pretty bad. But I digress. Winners! Five of ‘em! Congratulations to: Chris Smith, Jordan Andrei, Eric Chu, Marc-Andre Goulet and the fabulously named Yasir Makhdoom.

Yes, it’s been a couple years since we first wrote about Sakichi Sato’s Tokyo Zombie - the slacker horror comedy written and directed by the writer of Takashi Miike’s Ichi The Killer and Gozu, starring Show Aikawa and Tadanobu Asano - but after lengthy delays the film is finally about to arrive on English friendly DVD via Manga Entertainment and Anchor Bay. And if you live here in Canada, you’re in luck: Anchor Bay Canada have given us five copies of the DVD to give away to Canuck Twitch readers. You want it? by April 7th naming three Takashi Miike films that Aikawa has starred in. I’ve already given you one, so it shouldn’t be too hard ...
