Hey everyone! We have one last batch of horror and sci-fi home media releases headed our way before the end of the month, and this week’s offerings are massive, with well over 20 titles coming out on 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD this Tuesday alone.
One of my favorite creature features ever is getting some love in HD finally, with Scream Factory’s 4K release of Lewis Teague’s Alligator (and its sequel is headed to Blu-ray this week as well), and the horror comedy Dead Heat is also getting a 4K upgrade. For all you giallo fans out there, Forgotten Gialli: Volume 3 is being released tomorrow and features three more Italian classics genre fans are going to want to own, and Severin Films is keeping busy with a ton of titles this week too: Bloody Pit of Horror, Black Candles, Night of the Demon, and The Halfway House.

Let me herewith take a break from new discs to review an Italian release from six years ago, a movie that for years we knew only as Atom Age Vampire. Until sporadic late- night TV showings appeared, it existed for us ’60s kids as one or two interesting photos in Famous Monsters magazine. Forry Ackerman steered away from adult films, with the effect that...

- Trailers from Hell
Trailers From Hell welcomes all movies great and small but sometimes a particular trailer may not be up to the visual quality of the rest of our catalog or is simply too oddball to present in our usual format. Nevertheless, there’s such a wealth of exciting, strange and unusual films out there, we’d be remiss not to call attention to them. We’re happy to present the Tfh Misfits.
The Vampire and the Ballerina (L’amante del vampiro) was the second in an unofficial Italian trilogy pairing up a licentious bloodsucker with a sexy dance troupe. The titular star of Vampire and the Ballerina, Walter Brandi, also appeared in the first of these sex/horror outings, The Playgirls and the Vampire. The Monster of the Opera (directed by Ballerina‘s helmer, Renato Poselli) was the third in this shortlived series.
And if you can’t get enough of these sexy vampire shenanigans,...

Here we are again with another installment of Everyone's A Critic, the feature that puts You in the reviewers seat right on the front page of Fangoria.com.
This time we feature Richard A. Ekstedt and his take on a classic Italian vampire film presented by Dark Sky Films, Slaughter Of The Vampires. If you dig Hammer, A.I. and Amicus, then read on and discover a truly underrated gem...
I've always had a special fondness for this film. The last time I saw it on commercial television was near the end of the 1960's around Thanksgiving while visiting my late Aunt Cheta's house in upstate New York, playing on the old Wor Channel 9. It was very late at night and my Aunt got up and found me watching this old black and white film, and sat down to view it with me. When she saw the rather top-heavy actress Graziella Granata,...
