Pickaxe Review
Generally by now I’d like to have a few Christmas-themed horror flicks reviewed on the site. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be the normal influx of new holiday horror being released this year. With that said, I decided to grab the next film on my to-watch pile instead. That film just happened to be Jeremy Sumrall’s Pickaxe. The Plot More than five years after a series of brutal murders in Woodland Hills, notorious murderer Alex Black is resurrected from the dead. Now, it’s up to the remaining survivors of his past attacks and a new group of teens on their … Read More

Scary Stories Review
When I was younger, I was terrified of almost everything. I would have nightmares more often than not and was even frightened of my own toys at times. The My Buddy doll that somewhat resembles Chucky comes to mind. Still, whenever the opportunity to share ghost stories with my brother, sisters, and cousins presented itself, I grew excited and couldn’t wait to hear what we could cook up. In addition, I’d love to have my older sister read various tales from the “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark” book series. Almost forty years after their original publication, the books … Read More

Danger God Review
A few months back, Quentin Tarantino released a film which starred Brad Pitt as a stunt man and double to a famous actor. Pitt’s character was a bit over the top at times, but believe it or not, his Cliff Booth was an amalgamation of a few different real-life individuals. One of these badass individuals was prolific actor and stunt man, Gary Kent, whose life and career is showcased in Joe O’Connell’s documentary, Danger God. My Thoughts Starring in over 100 films spanning multiple decades, Gary Kent was an actor, stunt double, special effects artist, writer, and director. His time … Read More

The Velocipastor Review
My last few expeditions into independent horror territory have been less than enjoyable, to say the least. I must be a glutton for punishment because I continue to head back out there and see what else lies ahead in low-budget filmland. Luckily, few still exist that are worth my time. The latest is Brendan Steere’s The Velocipastor. The Plot After the death of his parents which occurs right before his eyes, Father Doug Jones (Greg Cohan) travels the world to re-discover his faith. While in China, a cut from an ancient tooth grants him the ability to transform into a … Read More

Bigfoot Blood Trap Review
My last couple of reviews have been of films with much larger financial backing than most of the normal stuff you’d find on Repulsive Reviews. After a little break, I felt that I was finally ready to jump back into some indie horror and see what some of these up-and-coming filmmakers have to offer. Read on to see if John Orrichio’s Bigfoot Blood Trap was the right one to jump back in with. The Plot After inheriting hundreds of acres of land from her estranged grandfather, Shannon, her brother Billy, and a couple of their friends go for a long … Read More

The Jurassic Dead Review
Not too long ago, it seemed that everyone and their mother was making a zombie flick. The sub-genre was extremely saturated and it didn’t take long to bore of it. Now, with a great deal of time having passed since my last dance with the un-dead, I figured it was a great time to check out one of the most original films I’ve ever encountered. I’m referring to Milko Davis and Thomas Martwick’s The Jurassic Dead. The Plot After a meteorite that he predicted would make impact actually does, a mentally unstable scientist unleashes his greatest weapon — a re-animated, … Read More
