  Just when it seems like the last of the micro-budgeted, shot-on-VHS genre epics of years gone by have been dusted off and given a shiny new home video release, Severin Films and Intervision Pictures go spelunking in the darkest cable access corners of Canuxploitation and emerge with PHOBE: THE…

[NO-BUDGET NIGHTMARES] PODCAST #77: NIGHTMARE MUSEUM (2006)


June 10, 2016    Doug Tilley

On an unprecedented episode of NO-BUDGET NIGHTMARES, Doug and Moe are facing perhaps their greatest challenge: a movie that isn’t a movie. Sixty straight minutes of Barbie dolls slamming against each other for the amusement of none. Its 2006’s NIGHTMARE MUSEUM and it’s pure pain, administered directly to the eyeballs….

May 27, 2016    Doug Tilley

YIPPEE KI-YAY BRAM STOKER! It’s episode 76 of NO-BUDGET NIGHTMARES and this time our fiendish hosts are tackling DIE HARD DRACULA, a horror-comedy with a twist: it’s neither horrific NOR funny! It does, however, star Bruce (dad-to-Crispin) Glover as the world’s worst Van Helsing, as well as lovely Czech Republic locations and a rotating cast of – count em! – THREE Draculas. It’s absolutely wretched, but what else is new? ENOUGH TALK, put your lips together and LISTEN!

  You lucky kids today can toss together a movie on your phone, but back in 1979 it took GUTS and BALLS and SOME SKILL. That’s what 16-year-old Nathan Schiff did with just a dream, a Super-8 camera, and some rudimentary modeling skill, and the result was the wonderfully titled WEASELS RIP…
