Watch Out

Release date- 2008

Watch Out should of been titled Watch Me since all Jonathan Barrows liked to do was look at and love himself. You know from the very first scene that this movie was going to be unique and outrageous. Jonathan was totally asexual meaning he loved himself and everyone else seemed to be beneath him. He had an onslaught of insults waiting for whoever he came into contact with.


You can tell that there is something severely wrong with this man. Maybe you could even classify him as delusional, yes, it's really that bad! But I don't think the poor guy had a chance in hell, I mean just look at those wacks that are considered his parents. By Jonathan's demeanor you would think that he was gay, he is very effeminate and the way he speaks just screams gay.

The part that cracked me up but was still totally messed up was when he was in this hotel room lying naked in the bed with a camera and a blow up doll. He could not get enough of himself and I don't wanna ruin it for you so I won't spill the sordid beans. Eventually his little mind cracks and he does things to ease his pain, like murdering people. Matt Riddlehoover is superb in this role, it doesn't get any better than him!


The film was twisted and somewhat different then most of the movies I watch so it was refreshing to get a change of scenery even though it was focused on some metal case. It made my own twisted family seem like the Brady Bunch when watching Jonathan interact with his. There are just some lessons a person should learn on their own.

Who can ever forget Mickey and Mallory? Back in 1994 when Natural Born Killers came out the world fell in love with two new totally psychotic serial killers. These two were bonded over the fact that they both had very dysfunctional childhoods with abusive parents. Mickey murders her touchy incestuous father and her enabling mother and then they go on a road trip from hell.


Along they way they slaughter everyone they can get their hands on and their only rule is always leave behind one person to be the witness and tell their harrowing tale. A very popular reporter named Wayne Gale exposes these two maniacs to the world and they become instant killing superstars. Just goes to show you how the media hypes up the wrong things!


When they are captured outside of a store while they were inside searching for snake venom medicine you think that these two just might get loose but they are both sent to different prisons where they sit love ridden in their cells hoping to see each other again, but knowing it is not going to happen since they will likely be either sentenced to death or life inside.


So if you want to see an addictive story that will keep you thinking about it for months to come, watch Nature Born Killers. Mickey and Mallory are as addictive as chocolate with peanut butter in it. It's a twisted tale of love and murder that the media hyped up and made into an explosive obsession. Oliver Stone sure knows how to tell a crooked story!

Rough Cut Article

Would you kill to make a movie? The scary thing is, two independent filmmakers did. In January 2003 a woman was found beaten, strangled, and stabbed in her Pennsylvania home. 8 months earlier, an independent horror film was shot on the nearby Appalachian Trail. Rough Cut is a feature length documentary that explores the twisted true tale of two first-time filmmakers who had a dream of making a horror movie and the bizarre events that followed.

Blaine Norris decided he wanted to make a horror film. He didn't really have much cash and only one actress that was experienced and had already made a name for herself and that was Robin Griggs. Robin was from Scranton PA and starting acting at the tender age of three. She ended up moving to New York to appear in Annie. She got an agent and was cast on One Life To Live and then later on Another World. She left the soaps and now has become a female fixture in Horror movies.

Girggs was injured and broke her wrist so she had to drop out of Through Hike, the film Norris was counting on her name to get it some exposure. Here are the events that led up to the gruesome discovery that Blaine had actually committed murder for his film:

At 8:29 p.m. on January 10, 2003 police in Camp Hill, PA received a frantic 911 call from Brian Trimble. He had just returned home from dinner with a friend and found his wife, Randi, in a pool of blood on the garage floor.

Before the brutal murder occurred, the house looked as though it was burglarized. Suspicions immediately arose in the seasoned detectives investigating the case. Evidence pointed towards the husband, but his alibi was airtight.

For the next 9 months detectives and law enforcement officials used every tool at their disposal to solve this truly bizarre crime.

Randi's husband Brian was friends with Blaine. Randi didn't link the idea of him loaning out his expensive equipment or even being involved with the film.

If the couple were having problems why not just divorce? Why on earth did Brian feel that murder was the better way to go.

Watch the film/ documentary and see why this man did what he did. Randi didn't deserve to die because of her husband wanting to get a divorce or for the future of the film Through Hike!

Hide- Out June 30th on DVD

Here we have Billy and Betty a sexy, southern Mickey and Mallory with a seriously checkered path behind them. After their bank robbery Billy was caught and put behind bars but Betty narrowly escaped. Now seven years later Betty busts him out during a transfer back to Louieville and hopes to pick up where they left off. When they were last together they were crazy in love and had no qualms about killing and messing people up.

Now Billy has sat behind bars for so long thinking about that past and eventually it got him thinking about how it was wrong and God’s going to pay them back for what they have done. Betty hasn’t changed one bit and she is really not liking this new attitude of his, it’s seriously weirding her out. When they robbed that bank Billy hid the money near this church and now they are all set to go get it!

When they get to the town where it all happened it’s completely deserted. It’s like they showed up after the apocalypse since everything was left like it was clothes, stores, and even a few old amusements. They go back to the diner and you see all the bullet holes in the cement building where the showdown took place. Billy then goes to try and fix the car while Betty has a scary encounter that leaves her wanting out of there as fast as possible.

There is someone else there with them and it seems he wants to make them pay for their sins. This man was treated poorly as a child and those memories seemed to have made him into a monster seeking vengeance. I really liked this film. It reminded me of when me and my fiancee got together, we were wild like that and so in love but without all of the killing ofcourse!

Killing Ariel

Rick is your all around good guy. He goes to his boss’s party and resists the advances of all the beautiful women, and this is the swinging 70’s and his boss even offers him his beautiful wife. He goes home to loving wife and deals with the kids and there misgivings then hops into bed. While he is sleeping a demon sexually attacks him and now he is completely under her spell.

He suddenly has like a midlife crisis and buys a sports car and takes a girl he met named Ariel to his childhood home which he tells his wife is is getting it ready to sell. Really weird things start happening and he keeps having strange nightmares and visions that are causing him to act out making Ariel think he is a complete wacko. He’ll be lying in the bed with her and he’ll glance over and it will be some other woman or even his wife.

Ariel tells him he is just dealing with a guilty conscious and brings him back to bed for another exhausting romp that leaves him drained. He makes his way up to the attic and finds his father’s journal. Reading it he becomes convinced that Ariel is the demon that once took hold of his mother. He hears something and turns around to see the naked man that he remember seeing his mother with as a child and just knows he is evil.

Killing Ariel was confusing and if I didn’t have a synopsis for it I don’t know what I would of thought it was about. That doesn’t mean it was bad, I actually really liked it. The best parts were when he was piecing everything together and one scene imparticular scene with a disembodied head that he brings home with him. Can Rick get his head together and rid himself of the evil clinging demon?

10 Dead Men

Ryan was like a contracted killer until things went terribly wrong. You see Ryan quit living that life when he met and fell in love with Amy. He was trying so hard to be a normal man within normal circumstances but and old employer of his Hart thinks that he is going to make Ryan pay for trying to remove himself and there is a past debt that just needs to be paid.

Ten men got together and by the sadistic Hart’s word they brought Ryan’s girlfriend to the abandoned building where they had him and proceeded to murder her right before his eyes. Shot and left for dead he somehow manages the strength to crawl over to one man’s place called Axl. He knows Axl can help him find the others and make them all pay for what they did to Amy and his chance for the whole white picket fence life.

I was listening to the narrator in this film and kept saying to myself this man’s voice sounds so familiar, and here it is my beloved Pinhead himself Doug Bradley from Hellraiser. I love the man’s British accent and the way he delivers the story it’s perfect. Now as Ryan slaughters each of the men he takes a little souvenir from each and puts it in a plastic ziploc bag.

So this see thru bloody bag contains some fingers, a zippo lighter, a nose and whatever else he feels like cutting off and keeping. Ryan can’t believe that he tried to change his old ways and instead he was betrayed and now his life is crumbling apart before his very sad and tired eyes. Can he manage to deliver each of these bastard men safely to hell before subcumbing to his own madness?
