Fuck it. Let me know if you hate it. I can take the abuse.Also, drop me a line on any news, new movies I may have missed and movies that I should avoid like a $5 hooker in Atlantic City.What are you all interested...

Evil Adam's johnny on the spot general, is working on best death scenes for our dot com. But boy did he find a gem with the death scene below from Deadly Friend which stars Kristy Swanson as a cyborg with a short circuit.Nothing can save momma from the train, when a basketball comes speeding at you at 500 mph.Poor momma.Check it out.One of my 2 favorite death scenes comes from Cannibal Ferox."The Scalping" (towards the end)Insano Steve loved this death scene from Zombi Holocaust (aka Dr. Butcher M.D.)"Zombie vs Outboard Motor"OK. That's enough...

On March 6, 2009, Zach Snyder brings us the movie version of Watchmen. As much as I'm excited to watch the greatest graphic novel ever be turned into a movie, do yourself a favor and read the graphic novel.Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons masterpiece is brilliant and thought provoking.Snyder's vision seems to keep the elements of what makes Watchmen great but seriously, read the comic.Alan Moore may be nuts, but the comic is genius and mesmerizing.It's...

The last Spanish flick I saw was an obscure thriller/horror film that centered around snuff called Tesis (aka Thesis).Leave it to the Spaniards to fuck around and make a horror or suspense-ish type movie about time travel called Timecrimes.I love time travel movies so to combine the 2 subgenres sounds totally kick ass.It's one of the movies playing at the Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal next month.Check out the trailer below.Tags:timecrimes, timecrimes trailer , Los Cronocrímenes , fantasia film festival 2008, Nacho Vigalondo, time travel, top...

Below is the trailer for Pig Hunt, the new movie from James Isaac (who previously directed Jason X and Skinwalkers).It looks like a mish mash of various genres, mutant pig, redneck have eyes and gratuitous hotties.I don't know what to make of it. Could be gold, could be shit.What do you think?Tags:pig hunt, pig hunt trailer , james isaac , jason x, gore splatter, mutant pig razorback, top horror movies of 2008, bloody violence rednecks, gratuitous nudity,...

The Machine GirlThe Machine Girl (2008) (Kataude mashin gâru)Directed by Noburu IguchiIt's sad that the YouTube millenials made the Machine Girl's trailer go viral. Why? Because it just seems that a movie like this was condensed into 2-3 minutes. It should be viewed as 90 minutes of fun, splatter and gore that catches you surprised and shocked and LOLing. Because you watched the trailer, those parts are now not as much fun.Damn millenials.Tokyo Shock...

Everybody has seen Lucio Fulci's Zombi. It's a cult classic. I can watch this film over and over again. From the opening scene of a empty boat drifting in the New York harbor with chubby zombie to the quirky characters who make there way to the mysterious island of Matool, it's the penultimate classic of zombie zen.So at last I've dedicated this list to maestro Fulci and below are the jaded viewer's top 5 scenes in Zombi.Frak you! On to the list!5.)"Moshing...

eXistenZ unfortunately came out the same year as the Matrix.That sucked.So only a few people saw David Cronenberg's Alt virtual reality in all it's glory.I got a chance to rewatch this recently on cable and it still holds up in awesomeness.Mega hot Jennifer Jason Leigh and Jude Law star in the flick. Leigh plays Allegra Gellar, a infamous game designer who beta tests her latest game.....eXistenZ.eXistenZ is a virtua-world played on a console of gooey fleshy fun. Classic shit from the mind of Cronenberg.Check out the trailer....and if you can....rent,...

Everybody knows the classic blaxploitation films of the 70s. Shaft, Sweet Sweetback Badasssss song, Black Caesar, Coffy.Two movies that you may have missed are The Thing With Two Heads and one of the most fucked up movies I've ever seen, Goodbye Uncle Tom.The Thing With Two Heads is satirical comedy at its best. Goodbye Uncle Tom was molded from the Mondo Cane creators and sickly depicts slavery in America.I wanted to add Watermelon Man and Bone but those trailers aren't online.Below are the trailers for these 2 often overlooked blaxploitation...

Ooru Naito Rongu aka All Night Long Trilogy.Three movies (or 5 if you want to keep count) Matsumara's All Night Long Series is all about the very real and disturbing problem of bullying in Japan.Each of the movies deals with the problem in some way.Here are my and Insano Steve's original reviews:All Night Long All Night Long (1992)Directed by Katsuya Matsumura Japan is all fucked up. In a good way. Released in theatres in Japan this one shocked the...

Wow. So as you can see I reviewed Rec a few days ago and after watching the trailer for the US remake Quarantine, I can't believe this is going to be a shot for shot remake.Fuckin Hollywood.Everything is exactly the same. Every scene (from the opening old woman zombie to the night vision ending) is going to be plagiarized. The TV reporter is wearing the same white tank top as the Spanish version!Coupled with more CGI gore, a metal or indie rock soundtrack and severe product placement, this will be another Holly-crap horror production that is the...

Q: The Winged Serpent Q: The Winged Serpent (1982)Directed by Larry Cohen [It's a mini rewind review here at the jadedviewer.com. These were orignally posted on Netflix before they banned me. Enjoy!]I was figuring this to be a cheesy B-movie, Godzilla/King Kong like movie...but it didn't have any cheese.I can appreciate a film where you can MST3K it but this was so bad I was writhing in pain while viewing it. I think it might have had to do with...

An American CrimeAn American Crime (2007)Directed by Tommy O'HaverAfter watching Juno, there is something very disturbing seeing Ellen Page play a torture victim. I was like...stop torturing Juno!!But Ellen Page is not acting as Juno, but Sylvia Likens. And as Sylvia Likens she gets tortured and punished....horrificly. Watching the true story of this horrific crime was the most grueling 1 hour and 37 minutes I've ever endured....other than playing...
