Fear.net has created an online game that is part Saw part mystery. Seems like they are putting a twist in the torture porn motif. Check it out. Buried Alive centers around a handful of 20-somethings, each unwillingly encased in a custom-made coffin. Trapped in this underground world that is ruled by a maniacal antagonist, the group must discover the connections between themselves; the reasons for their abductions; and, with luck, an escape from the nightmare. Aiding the group above ground are two sleuths, siblings Melanie and Travis, each with...

Insano Steve wanted to chime in on the Buttgereit week festivities so we conclude Jorg Buttgereit week with his review of Der Todesking.Der TodeskingDer Todesking (1990)Der Todesking (the Death King) is Jorg's more ambitious artsy suicide movie.Does Jorg pull it off? Is he skilled enough?Um, no. You gotta admire the effort though. Movie is broken up into 7 days/episodes (which you know he got the idea from another movie from a better director). In...

SchrammSchramm (1993)Directed by Jorg ButtgereitIf Buttgereit were still making movies today, horror sites would be clamoring for Jorg to make a serial killer movie. Well, we're glad he did. Way back in 93. And oh my, it's one hell of a sick movie.The thing about Buttgereit is that to understand the madness of his films is to dig deep into the psychosis of insanity itself.Wow that sounds all Freudian. But alas after watching Schramm, you'll know...

Nekromantik 2Nekromantik 2 (1991)Directed by Jorg ButtgereitThe inevitable sequel is always determined if its better than the original. In the case of Nekromantik, it kinda is.Buttgereit (still in classic art house mode) wiggles in David Lynchian imagery, classical music and corpse fucking.And he does it so damn well.The movie begins with the ending of the 1st movie in all its climactic, volcano glory.The story (or lack therof) introduces Monika,...

NekromantikNekromantik (1987)Directed by Jorg Buttgereit**Warning: Some of this film may be seen as grossly offensive and should not be shown to minors!!!**-from the trailer of "Nekromantik""DEATH IS JUST THE BEGINNING"I remember vividly when my friend and I decided to irrevocably change the way we watch horror movies. As we were super splatter-philes already, we decided to take the plunge into the world of sick and twisted underground horror. We...

You really have to think twice when you decide to watch a horror movie where the lead actress is soooo hot you'll see her in anything. Of course you'd like to see her naked, covered in blood or screaming in pain. Or doing something sexually deviant or psychotic or violent.But if you do watch a movie because of this reason, you have a severe case of "Dark Angel Syndrome".(Dark Angel Syndrome: Watching any particular form of entertainment (movie, tv...

So as we wrap up 2007, Hollywood is churning out some horror that may or may not be worth 2 shits. Below is a list of some either gems or turds with extra corn.1.) 30 Days of NightThe Blah Blah Blah:Vampires in Alaska. Did I just write that? 2.) Saw IVThe Blah Blah Blah: Is Jigsaw the new Chucky? Seems like it after the 4th effin sequel.3.) The SignalThe Blah Blah Blah:Cell phones make people go insane. That happens everyday in NYC.4.) P2The Blah...
HatchetHatchet (2006)Directed by Adam GreenOld School American Horror. Motherfucker.What makes a good, fun slasher movie? Below is a list of what we here at jadedviewer deem as full of chunky gooiness when it comes to the ingredients of a solid slasher-palooza.Does Hatchet achieve everything on this list?1.) A mysterious, insanely strong, ridiculed as a child, deformed, inbred redneck slasher.Check.2.) Gratuitous, over the top, super fleshy nudity...

I wanted to explain our rating system so going forward everybody good get a clear understanding of what we think is good and what is utter shit.
As I am a big fan of Jean Claude Van Damme, (even his shitty straight to DVD movies) the rating system is based on Van Damme spin kicks.
The Van Damme spin kick, first seen in the movie BloodSport is lethal and a most potent weapon (other than the infamous Dim-Mak) in the arsenal of Frank Dux. In the...

HalloweenHalloween (2007)Directed by Rob ZombieI don't know why Zombie thought he could attempt to remake Halloween. It's just going to fuel the naysayers who love to add fuel to the fire American horror is dead. And though I loved the Devil's Rejects, this piece of floating turd should be flushed down the nearest toilet.The thing about this movie is that the aura of Michael Myers is his ambiguity. All Loomis tells us from Carpenter's version is...
