A Radio Station Is Stalked By A Twisted Killer In Todd Sheet’s ‘Final Caller’

After the success of Dreaming Purple Neon and Bonehill Road as well as the insanity of Clownado, director Todd Sheets, who has 50 titles under his belt, returns with the new film Final Caller, which Horror Fuel’s Dan XIII calls “Lean, mean, n’ full of screams, ” in his review. “For late-night radio host Roland Bennett, crazy is a way of life. His show “On Through The Night” attracts the wildest, most bizarre callers of any radio show in syndication. But tonight is different. Tonight the show has truly crossed the line into Hell. Tonight a vicious killer is on the hunt for fresh blood, and he wants to make sure his favorite radio host is involved every step of the way. But simply calling in isn’t enough, and soon Roland and the staff of the radio station must face the depraved madman face to face. And because everyone thinks it’s just another radio stunt orchestrated by Roland for higher

Movie Review: Final Caller (2020)

Todd Sheets is one maniac mother fucker of a fright flick filmmaker that I’d follow anywhere… movie-wise, I’m not some deranged stalker after all. Anyway, I was pleased as putrid punch when Todd sent your’s cruelly his new picture for a lil’ bit of that revoltin’ review voodoo I do moderately okay-ish! Final Caller concerns abrasive late night shock jock Roland Bennett (Douglas Epps), who’s show ‘On Through The Night’ is about to get a lot more interesting thanks to a lil’ ringy-dingy from The Outsider (Jack McCord); a druid lore addicted literal lady killer with a real hankerin’ for putting the slice n’ dice on the woman folk! Of course Big O isn’t satisfied just chewin’ the fear fat over the telephone, and gets it in his head to make a personal appearance at the station… which puts a bit of a snag in the whole “let’s stay alive” thing the denizens of that building are so fond of!

DVD Review: Zombie Rampage 2 (2018)

In the middle of one of them there zombie apocalypses (a more common occurrence than one would believe if our beloved horror biz is to be believed), a rag-tag group of survivors who’s ranks include, but are not limited to: a dude lookin’ straight out of the ’70s, a woman who continuously shoves people’s faces into her breasts, a rather fab zombie exterminator, and a school girl with a baseball bat. The long and the short of it is, these misfits have to band together and form a fighting force capable of withstanding this horrific outbreak of living dead… so, there probably as good as fucked… Make no mistake, Zombie Rampage 2 is an ultra-low budget affair, so you can take any expectations of Hollywood gloss, put in a box, and shove it right up your arcane ass. Now, as you lot know; that is aces with yours cruelly, and what this fright flick lacks in polish it makes up

DVD Review: Clownado (2019)

As Clownado opens, we learn of the dangers of circus-related theft (a true plague to the youth of the nation these days)…which could best be described as kooky clowns showing us that tits n’ darts don’t mix (a lesson I learned all too well at my last soiree at the Crypt o’ XIII)…if they don’t just murderize your ass outright. Savanna (Rachel Lagen), the victim of their big top titty terror, seeks revenge against those clowns, lead by her brute of a husband Big Ronnie (John O’Hara), via magic courtesy of one Autumn Moonspell (porn legend Jeanne Silver). The spell helps her escape the grease-painted ghouls, but it has the unintended side-effect of giving the clowns tornado based supernatural abilities…as is often the way. Soon a group of disparate strangers who’s ranks include; a no-nonsense shit-kicker (Bobby Westrick), an Elvis impersonator (Antwoine Steele), a stripper (Dilynn Fawn Harvey), and a teen runaway (Sierra Stodden) will be tasked with ending the

Movie Review: Hi-Death (2018)

Here it comes boils n’ ghouls; another arcane anthology that will assault our putrid peepers with a multitude of fun-sized fright flicks! Let’s see how Hi-Death stacks up, and if it’ll contain more hits than misses… The obligatory wrap-around segment comes in the form of Terror Tour (written and directed by Brad Sykes) which features two comely lasses taking a horror based tour of L.A. while watching a series of tremble inducing tales along the way. In my opinion these are always the most superfluous of segments in these things, and this gets the job done okay. First up comes Anthony Catanese’s Death Has a Conscience; which tells the story of hardcore music fan and addict (of the fictional drug Spit) Erin (Jensen Jacobs) who decides to come down in a rank-ass motel room. Sounds prosaic enough, except the ol’ Grim Reaper makes the scene to have a heart to heart with our heroine! I enjoyed this one quite a
