The Killjoy Franchise:

Killjoy (2000) Directed by Craig Ross Jr.

A group of inner city high school students run afoul of everyone’s worst nightmare: a killer clown. Killjoy the Clown kills bad guys and the innocent alike, and only Jada, a gifted student, can stop the killer in its grease painted tracks. A fun horror movie in the tradition of Stephen King’s IT.

Killjoy 2: Deliverance from Evil (2002) Directed by Tammi Sutton

In this sequel, two juvenile detention officers must escort a group of criminally-inclined urban kids to the country where they are being forced to renovate a shelter for teens as punishment for their crimes. After one of them is shot by a local, the survivors seek refuge in the home of a voodoo woman, where they mistakenly summon legendary clown-faced demon Killjoy–who begins hunting them down one by one.

Killjoy 3 (2010) Directed by John Lechago

Four college students on spring break cross paths with the demon clown Killjoy. And Killjoy is not going it alone this time – he has raised 3 other demon clowns: Punchy, Freakshow and Batty Boop. A mysterious mirror transports the students and the demons to Killjoy’s demon realm where the students must survive diabolical trials!

Filmmakers, Jose and Eduardo Quiroz’s latest flick Deliverance From Evil brings us the tale of a young couple and their son moving into a new house in San Francisco that holds dark secrets. When their son drowns in the bathtub, the couple is left to deal with the intense heartbreak of losing a child on top of an evil presence that becomes prevalent after their son’s demise. The couple are then forced to deal with the presence and get to the bottom of the strange events before the entity claims them as well.

Story-wise, Deliverance From Evil follows the standard haunted house movie formula pretty closely. There is hardly, if any, surprises to be had in terms of plot. The son getting killed was an interesting concept and probably would have been surprising if it wasn’t announced in the synopsis. If the son had more of a prominent role and it showed him actually trying to cope with the malevolent entity in the house before it had killed him, I think it would have worked out better for the story and suspense. And speaking of suspense; the movie fails to have any. With most of the scenes taking place during the day or heavily lighted, all chances to gain any suspense from this ghost story was thwarted. However, gripes aside, the story does pick up a little after the halfway point and there are some moments that are borderline creepy.

Jose Rosete and Angel Aviles do well in their roles as a couple who have just lost their son and then must deal with the crazy aftermath. There’s a bit of sincerity brought to their performances that really sells the scenes they’re in. Most of the supporting cast were well acted as well, however there are a few performances that remind you that your watching an independent horror movie. Victor Miller (whom I’m told by IMDB is the writer of Friday the 13th) makes a cameo as a mailman that passes on the rumors of the couple’s recently acquired house being haunted. Would have been funnier if he were cast in a Crazy Ralph “doomsayer” type role, but maybe that’s just me.

The effects were hit or miss. When they went for practical effects, it almost always played out well. However, the CGI attempts didn’t do much but remind me once more that the movie was shot on a low budget. And again, the effects would have most likely worked more effectively if the lighting and suspense were better in tune.

I would say that Deliverance From Evil exceeded my expectations and was put together pretty well compared to a lot of other low budget horror flicks I’ve seen. While it fails to deliver any tense scenes or
truly scary moments, it does offer a coherent story that I enjoyed more than the last two Paranormal Activity movies.

Note: This review contains spoilers.

I had to take a few days to really let the season finale of the Vampire Diaries sink in. There were some good things that had happened, but the big choice that has been coming for quite some time now came out for the worse. There has been sexual tension between Damon and Elena through this love triangle since the beginning, especially heating up this season to go beyond just the tension. Every time she gets close to him she ends up pushing him away. Damon is more evil-natured and embraces what he is, which Elena rarely approves of. When it comes down to it there is something undeniable between them; passion, a love that consumes them, and fighting to the death for one another.

The main problem has always been other people’s judgments and Damon’s reputation. He has killed plenty of people with little to no remorse and embraces the darkness within. This is what he is though and honestly Stefan isn’t too far off. They are vampires either Elena accepts that or she doesn’t. Stefan’s ripper days aren’t that far behind him still and he even stated he could never really go back. Elena tells herself excuses, because she is afraid to truly let her guard down and embrace their love. He has been there for her completely this season especially. He was there when Stefan wasn’t. Damon helped her through everything, pushed her and made her stronger, and even gave her a wake-up call when she needed it. He is exactly what she needs and what she wants when she decides to admit it.

I will admit on paper there are reasons why she would choose Stefan. She fell in love with him and never really fell out of love even when she did fall for Damon too. He was there at a time when she needed someone and something different, he was like a breath of fresh air with an air of mystery when she felt bored and indifferent to so much around her. Elena entered a new world with him, but it still felt safe enough with him and didn’t cross enough boundaries to completely scare her away since he was the more moralistic and less vicious one.

Out of all of the recent vampire shows/movies with the more moralistic romantic choice that they are either with from the beginning or supposed to be with I do like Stefan the best. I am far more drawn to the evil-natured, alluring, vampires who embrace their nature. I like vampires that bring out what vampires are; blood-sucking beast who have an inherent otherworldly, alluring aspect to them. Damon embodies this adding a bit of a snarky charisma, initially targeted at the silly morals of Stefan, but has become much more targeted at their enemies and the situations they find themselves in that have them fighting for their lives and him desperate to save Elena at all costs.

Stefan’s character has become far more interesting in the past two seasons. He isn’t quite as strictly “good” as most of the obvious romantic interest choices in these vampire shows are. Stefan has layers of light and darkness within him. He battles with a number of things and has been drastically pushed as a character, developing to such intriguing character dynamics. Still, I haven’t been able to ever get on board with Stefan as a romantic interest. He is caring and would protect her when he feels he can, even if not quite to the extent that Damon has. I have never felt that passion, thrill, or spark in any type of exciting nature brought out from Stefan in Elena. He’s a damn good character, but he’s always been lacking as Elena’s eternal love whether Damon is in the picture or not.

With the flashback of Damon being even more selfless and truly wanting Elena’s happiness and for her to have exactly what she wants (it just so happens it was the consuming love that he makes her feel) it’s so maddening that Elena had to make that phone call when she did. He has been to hell and back for her. Our hope is slightly built up just to be thrown in Damon’s face. Why wound him further? Love triangles can be plenty thrilling and push plots along, but they do get to a certain point where it’s like beating a dead horse. The door is being shut only for it to get opened up again.

From what the producers have stated on where this story line will be going in season 4 it is just about guaranteed that things will be explored further with Elena and Damon next season, perhaps more so than they ever have before. Why close the door just to open it again? Beyond the constant of pulling the audience in one direction and shoving them in another to pull them back again, I love Damon as a character far more than Elena. I am sick of him being emotionally damaged by her. She needs to immediately shape up and give him all that he should be given or just end it there and be done with it.

Of course, things are going to be far different next season with Elena’s vampiric nature. It has been a long time coming and will make certain things far easier as she won’t have malicious supernatural forces trying to kill, sacrifice her, or use her blood. I am very enticed by the thought of her being a vampire, all of the strength she will hold to back up her strong instincts and will power has plenty of potential. She will be a stronger character in many ways and hopefully even a little bit of Katherine will brush off on her while still holding on to what makes her Elena. She will be dealing with a lot among this transition. There will be urges, darkness, and seeing things in a new light which is sure to include Damon. I just pray that with her new form she will drop the doubts and hesitation and embrace what is before her. Putting Damon through anything more is only going to anger fans further, Team Damon certainly seems to be that majority of the viewing population.

The other thing that had really had me numb to all else was killing Klaus. Not only was he dead, or the original’s version of death in his sleeping state, but now his entire body has been burnt. Luckily, not all traces of Klaus are gone. I’m thrilled that we aren’t totally devoid of Klaus, what a sad world that would be. He is the epitome of vampire. While many of the more wicked and dark qualities are at Damon’s core, Klaus wears them on his sleeve. He’s the original vampire and never looked back or regretted anything. He thrives on not only preying on the weaker, but bringing evil out from his influence. He thrives to be a puppet master, bringing malevolence to the world under his beck and call. Regardless, the show needs a villain that is enticing and thrilling for fans to be so conflicted with. We should be able to be so interested that we can’t look away even when he’s putting other character’s we love in utter torture and despair. Someone like him is necessary. There is only one Klaus so there’s no need to kill what the show needs so badly.

It will be interesting to see how he takes on his new form, especially considering all of the endless possibilities it may have with Caroline. I love her as a character and it will surely mess with her and put her through great anguish, but I am endlessly enticed by any storyline with Klaus, even if it is in a lesser form. From the second it was hinted at I couldn’t wait to see where the Klaus and Caroline relationship went. His intentions were never fully clear whether he had some feelings for him within his brutal, conniving state or if there was a more sinister plan in the works. Either way I still want to see more of where that could go and Klaus new state certainly gives ample opportunity for that. Despite a major upset in the finale, there has been plenty of set up for a kick ass season fourth season full of changes and new forms, steamy passion, and strong, unrelenting characters.

Here’s a new clip from Piranha 3DD featuring The Hoff!

After the terror unleashed on Lake Victoria in Piranha 3D, the pre-historic school of blood thirsty piranhas are back.

This time, no one is safe from the flesh eating fish as they sink their razor sharp teeth into the visitors of summer’s best attraction, The Big Wet Water Park. Christopher Lloyd reprises his role as the eccentric piranha expert with survivor Paul Scheer and a partially devoured Ving Rhames back for more fish frenzy. David Hasselhoff trades in the sandy beaches of ‘Baywatch’ to be a celebrity lifeguard at the racy water park.

Prepare for double the terror, double the action and double the Ds in this sequel also starring Gary Busey, Katrina Bowden, Danielle Panabaker, Matt Bush, Chris Zylka and David Koechner.

Piranha 3DD opens in theaters on June 1st, 2012.

Help me unlock the first 10 minutes of the season two premiere of MTV’s Teen Wolf by watching the trailer below. If it reaches five million views by the end of the week the first 10 minutes will be unlocked for our viewing pleasure.

After an action-packed end to its premiere season, Teen Wolf, jumps full force into season two with even more suspenseful drama. Scott McCall, an ordinary teenager with a wild secret, continues to find himself caught in a supernatural war between hunters and werewolves. While navigating the complicated roadways of high school, Scott must keep his forbidding romance with Allison a secret and protect himself from new Alpha wolf Derek. Scott will have to trust his instincts above all else if he hopes to end the war in Beacon Hills and keep his friends and family safe.

Season 2 will premiere Sunday, June 3rd following the MTV Movie Awards, then return to its regular position Mondays at 10pm!

I hate to admit it but I haven’t picked up a Shock-O-Rama movie in a longtime. That’s why I’m glad Horror Yearbook is back on their radar. I just received Ground Zero and Documenting the Grey Man in the mail. Since the Knicks and Devils don’t play until tomorrow, I’m very eager to check them both out tonight.

Ground Zero will be available on DVD on August 14th. It’s about two professional “cleaners” who are hired to collect a frozen corpse located high in the mountains. The cleaners are unaware that the body belongs to a political activist who has been brutally assassinated and injected with a deadly virus.

The poop hits the fan when they are stranded in a warehouse with a group of amateur cleaners who are battling the undead.

The cleaners must band together to stop a global biological meltdown.

Releasing under the Camp Motion Pictures label, Documenting the Grey Man is a “found footage” flick about five members of a ghost hunting expedition who go missing.

The story goes… On Monday, September 2007 police were called in to investigate a possible multiple homicide at the historic Pawley’s Island home. They found what looked like documentary film equipment left behind by a missing ghost hunting crew… You can probably figure out the rest.

I like the The Last Exorcism inspired cover art.

Documenting the Grey Man will be available on July 17th, 2012.

I’ll let you know how both films are later this week!

Elena would do anything to save a friend, including putting herself in danger and leaving everyone else in the dark. Alaric is putting his mission in to place: to end all vampires. He’s getting joy from putting Elena in to her place, in his eyes she is nearly as bad as them since she condones what they are. At one time she wanted to be able to fight against vampires. Alaric uses this against her by forcing her to stake Caroline, to end her unnatural evil existence once and for all.

Their only hope for killing Alaric is to stop his heart. He was still created by the original witch, making him nearly immortal, extremely powerful, and precise. Alaric was born with a mission, he can’t even think in objective terms; he is a killing machine. The only way for them to stop his heart is with a lot of vampire muscle and some intense witch power. Bonnie can only pull this off if she stops a human heart. Jeremy’s is the heart she will have to stop. He has already cheated death. If he dies with his ring on they might have another Alaric on their hands.

Things don’t go quite according to plan. Alaric might have been even more powerful and near impossible to put a stop to than they had anticipated. He realizes something about his bloodline. He is connected to another. Now when just about any one dies on the show at least one person, if not nearly everyone else, will die with them. It does make the stakes much higher.

The ending is going to piss off a lot of fans. I think most of us will still be holding out to see what happens in the season finale next week. The twist that took place in the episode kills so much the show had going for it in the past two seasons. It cuts off so much that pushes the plot forward and so much more could be done with. The show doesn’t borrow too heavily from actual plot points of the books, but considering all that is done with this one component in the books, it is hard to wrap your mind around them cutting it short.

This is a show about vampires, the evil nature that is at their core. With Stefan and Damon this can come and go or sometimes be controlled. They both have darkness inside them; perhaps what truly identifies them, even just as individuals, not even just because they are vampires. They need an outside force, raging against them who is not just evil, but complex; alluring, enticing, devious, dominating, blood lusting, power-inducing, predatory, immortal. The ending at the very least severely dims that if not takes it away completely.

It was a little too anti-climatic for this to really be the end, especially the somewhat awkward celebrating. It didn’t feel like a true celebration and I think Elena recognized this. If not, she realized shortly after with the effects the day had on her. She may have survived, but what she went through took a greater toll on her than she would have liked to admit. Alaric isn’t nearly done with the damage. Next week should be a thrilling, action-packed, and mind blowing finale. It better be.

Growing up, my brother and I were fascinated by insects and spiders. We had many books on them, and used to go out almost every day in the summer to catch them in the field behind our house. This fascination stuck with me as I became a movie lover. Before I got into horror movies, I was weaned on science fiction flicks, and the Big Bug movies of the 50s are what really blew my hair back.

By the time BEAST FROM HAUNTED CAVE came around, I had seen all the major players in the mutant arachnid category, including EARTH VS. THE SPIDER and TARANTULA. I still remember the first time I saw BEAST. I wasn’t thinking much of it until the creature made its first appearance in the mineshaft at the beginning of the film. I had my expectations set very low for what this beast was going to look like, and a humanoid man-in-a-suit was what I was expecting, but that’s not what I got. Instead two hairy cob-webbed tentacles come into frame, with some very weird audio, which I assumed represented more of this beast’s non-humanoid biology.

Okay, movie, you just got my attention.

The next time the beast was on screen was even better, it had so much in common with those giant spider flicks I loved. It’s a scene that involves a cocooned victim and the beast making sounds identical to the ones the giant spider makes in EARTH VS. THE SPIDER! I was riveted to the movie and those final moments taking place in the beast’s “Haunted Cave,” were weird and captivating and unforgettable.

THE PLOT: A group of criminals planning a heist in the middle of winter in South Dakota pull Gil, a ski instructor (Michael Shane), into the mix. Before they break in to the local bank, they stage a diversion, entailing blowing up a nearby mineshaft. Once the cops are distracted, Alex (Frank Wolff) and his crew waltz in and scoop up as many gold bars as they can carry. The getaway part of their plan involves holing up in Gil’s cabin in the woods to wait for a plane to come in and whisk them off to Canada. Everyone except Gil and his maid are in on it. All Gil knows is that he’s made some fast friends who want to hang out at his cabin for a couple of days.

Complications ensue. Movie wouldn’t be much fun without them.

The first comes in the form of Gypsy (Sheila Carol), Alex’s main squeeze. It’s clear she’s smitten with Gil, and as the movie goes on, she makes it clear she wants out of her life of crime to live happily ever after with the ski instructor in the snowy Dakotas. Complication number two comes in the form of the titular “Beast,” which we first see in that aforementioned scene in the mine. The spider is awakened by the bomb set by one of Alex’s henchmen, Marty, and his girlfriend We never learn how Marty escaped the beast’s clutches, all we know is that his date did not, and this sets in motion Marty’s “Lovecraftian insanity,” as the beast pursues the band across the cold landscape.

A couple of attacks at the cabin solidify what’s perceived as Marty losing it, making him a liability and his companions plan to kill him when the plane arrives.

It’s those final moments when all cast members are accounted for at the lair and quickly whittled down to the final two survivors that gets the blood going in a big bug loving monster movie fan like myself.

THE MONSTER: I’m all about the monster in this type of movie, and the ones that really get my attention are those whose origin and appearance can’t really be pinned down. I’ve read some descriptions that simply state the beast is some kind of giant, or mutant, spider, which is the farthest from the truth. However, I can understand why the thing gets labeled as such due to the cocooning of its prey and the drinking of the prey’s blood, but that’s all this beast has in common with arachnids.

Chris Robinson created and operated the beast, and hats off to him for coming up with a creature that fits in more with the writings of H.P. Lovecraft than The National Audubon Society. At one point, when Marty is encountering it for the second time, and seeing his date webbed up in the nook of a tree, it displays some transparency, which is never explained, making one wonder if it’s got some insidious abilities that were never fleshed out. Even its basic, biological structure, and how it’s filmed, would have made Lovecraft proud. Never once do we see what the entire thing looks like. All that is ever shown on screen are the two tentacled appendages it uses to ensnare prey, it’s bulbous, bobble head and part of its back, all of which is covered in cob-web like white hair. It almost totally obscures its visage, but if you look close in certain scenes you can get a peek of what may, or may not, be an eye, teeth, or a long tooth, and a weird configuration that makes up it’s jaw.

To add even more of a Lovecraft vibe, there is a brief feeding scene where a hairy “feeding tube” can be discerned, sucking the life out of Marty’s date in the final scene. And if you view the trailer included on the DVD, you will notice a more effective alternate take of that feeding scene. In the trailer, she screams, cocks her heard towards the camera and opens her eyes before she is extinguished. Not sure why this take wasn’t used. It’s infinitely creepier, and unsettled me when I saw it.

THE DVD: This version of the movie Synapse has put out is the extended one. To pad out the length for TV, additional scenes were shot, and you can see a difference between the original cut of the movie and the new scenes. The differences are not jarring enough to distract you from the film. Incidentally, all of the scenes are character/dialogue snippets.

You can view the movie in full frame or in a 1.85:1 aspect ratio. The only other extra is linear notes written by Film Historian, Bill Warren, which cover a good chunk of how the film came about, the actors and the construction of the monster. There are a few versions of this movie still out there, but if you want a quality presentation of the uncut transfer and info about the making of it, go with Synapse’s.

Do Not Go Gentle puts Rebekah’s big plans in to motion, starting with a lookalike white oak stake which Klaus burns immediately. He thinks they are safe and is ready to move on, but Rebekah convinces him to stay just for the dance. Even Klaus is in the dark for once, but soon the truth comes out and Klaus and the Salvatores aren’t such enemies if even just for this one night.

Of course all of this happens at the school dance. Why they go to these and expect any less than complete carnage and mayhem I don’t know. The dance is a 20s theme courtesy of Rebekah. Klaus fondly reflects on the 20s with Stefan as this was when the two of them were with Rebekah having fun with the ripper and doing as they pleased no matter who it hurt in a brotherly companionship. This is not something Stefan can look back upon in the same way and as Damon lets him know, he already has a brother. Klaus brings up the point that their unbreakable bond might only take one decision on Elena’s part to sever for good.

Elena goes with Stefan to the dance unfortunately since she is exploring her feelings for him as well, Bonnie goes with Jamie, and Caroline with Tyler unexpectedly. Caroline fears for Tyler’s life and how risky it is if Klaus were to find out he wasn’t sired any longer. Tyler’s jealousy and rage are building in equal measure, unwilling to sit aside when his death could be right around the corner.

Things develop with Alaric, clueing us in on things that have been going on with each death he experienced. He might have been cheating death all of this time, but only because there was another purpose intended for him; one of uncompromising death to others by the command of another. He would essentially be a killing machine. They fight it but when it comes down to it the existence of all vampires and all of those created from vampires are at risk if he becomes what was intended.

Alaric is a vampire hunter and has always had evil inside of him, something he is beginning to embrace more and more. The rings are bound to the real white ash stake; the only thing needed now is Elena’s blood. She would never simply give it to them. She would be killing every vampire in existence including Damon, Stefan, Caroline, and Tyler. Elena would be sealing Alaric’s fate as a monster once and for all. Considering she’s dealing with originals, Elena might not have a say in the matter; Alaric and the fate of all vampires might already be a done deal.
