Film Review: Sledgehammer (1983)

sledgehammer-1980-movie-4

SYNOPSIS:

A young boy murders his mother and her lover with a hammer. Ten years later, a wave of teenage murders plagues the same area.

REVIEW:

The early 80′s saw a wave of horror films produced by filmmakers working with no budget and a camcorder. These efforts, called “Shot-on-Video (SOV) movies”, favored buckets of blood over coherent storytelling and were intended for home video release. David A. Prior’s 1983 chiller Sledgehammer is the second… More

Music Review: Grown Below – The Long Now

Album cover: Grown Below - The Long Now

Genre-defining albums have sprinkled metal’s history with those few releases that transcend what’s been done before. Metallica’s Kill ‘Em All taught us metal could be heavy and still be rock and roll, Quiot Riot’s Metal Health ushered in a decade of hair bands, and Nirvana’s Nevermind killed that decade with a single song. More recently, Amorphis gave us Skyforger and showed us that metal didn’t have to be formulaic and boring. Post-metal needs such… More

Jason Barthelemy’s “Doguhn” tells the story of a young man by the name of Guy Kruspe who moves to a small town in an attempt… More

LiF-Original-Poster

Brandon Scullion’s so-cool-it’s-frozen horror feature LIVE IN FEAR announces the casting of one of its pivotal supporting roles!!

Maria Olsen, who is also co-producer of the film in the guise of her production liaison company, MOnsterworks66, has been cast as Sue, mother to leading-man Seth – played by David Lautman – and, as is usual for this well known indie horror actress, will most probably come to an extremely messy end.
