Sleepaway Camp (1983)

I’ve covered Leatheface. Jason Voorhees popped up a couple weeks ago. Freddy Krueger even haunted our nightmares last week. Now it’s time to introduce you to Angela.

Who’s Angela? Well, she was the star of a series of slasher flicks derivative of the original Friday the 13th film. She first appeared in this week’s feature, Sleepaway Camp. And in no way do I expect this movie to end with any kind of twist ending whatsoever.

This is the type of movie I fucking loved when I was a kid. It’s a movie that placed kids in peril. The majority of the cast are kids of obvious young ages. I don’t believe any of the kids are meant to be older than 16. While there are plenty of adults around to be victims, the vast majority of kills are young kids. Like real young.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989)

This movie sucks.

Let me back up for a moment. A Nightmare on Elm Street is a bit of a bugaboo for me. The first three films in the series were pretty great. You have a legitimate, and terrifying, horror movie that took roots from urban legends about a boogey man who could strike at you in your dreams. The second, after a critical reevaluation, really turned out to be so much more than just a cheap sequel that New Line Cinema tried to crank out to capitalize on the first. The third brought back our original survivor Nancy and she sacrificed herself to finally kill our boogey man, Freddy Krueger.

Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives (1986)

Happy Friday the 13th, folks. Even though this occurs a couple times every year, this one is kinda special. It isn’t just Friday the 13th, but it’s a Friday the 13th in October, the undisputed scariest month on the calendar. It’s like a double Friday the 13th! If only it was also a full moon then everyone everywhere would just get murdered by guys in hockey masks, werewolves, Michael Myers, or Irish toy makers.

This is the perfect chance for me to talk about my favorite Jason Voorhees movie – Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)

Published on October 6, 2017June 14, 2026 by Geoff ArbuckleLeave a comment

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is one of the most beloved horror movies of the modern era. It’s full of intensity, actual terrifying moments, and visceral violence that stays with you for years after you watch it. It came out in 1974 during the golden age of exploitation horror before the genre was essentially taken over by the slasher genre that Halloween gave birth to in the late 70s.

The film also boasts that it has connections to real life events. Well… Sort of. Leatherface was inspired by Ed Gein who was a real life serial killer who did indeed take skin from his victims and started making a skin suit. There are some minor plot details that also came from the Gein case, but that was all in Wisconsin, not Texas.

Spirit Camp (2009)

March, er, marches on, and next up on my tour of shitty 2000s horror thanks to Amazon Prime is 2009’s Spirit Camp. Admittedly, whenever I hear the title I think of the 1980s slasher movie involving cheerleaders called Cheerleader Camp. While Cheerleader Camp had Leif Garrett and Lucinda Dickey and Betsy Russell and Teri Weigel, Spirit Camp has no one I recognize…

Wait… Roxy Vandiver. That sounds familiar. When I watched the trailer for the movie there was this girl with bright blonde hair with super short punk girl cut. She looks familiar. I mean, instantly, I thought “Oh that’s the girl I would be really into for no goddamn good reason and it would be a horrible idea for me to be into her.” But something was itchy in the back of my mind. Wait. Itchy? Wigs make your head itch sometimes…

Die Die Delta Pi (2015)

Published on March 17, 2017June 14, 2026 by Geoff ArbuckleLeave a comment

I continue my tour of recent horror movies suggested to me by Amazon Prime, and I think today might just be either a treat or the worse experience of my life.

Die Die Delta Pi is a 2015 horror movie with roots that go back to the 1980s. It’s clear that the movie was made on something of a home brew. What I mean by that is that it was made on the cheap with whatever the makers could get. So we definitely have something that isn’t going to look that great.nor be all that well acted.

Killer Party (1986)

Okay, maybe I overreached last week. Mystics in Bali… Really? Why did I pick a movie that was utterly nonsensical to the point of absurdity and something hardly anyone has seen?

Oh yeah, the floating head that sucked babies out of vaginas.

Let’s get back to something a little safer and a lot more fun. After all, what’s better than a slasher film for Friday the 13th? I will say, typing that felt weird. It’s like maybe I should be talking about something else. Hmmm. Oh I dunno, I’m sure whatever that nagging sensation I’m feeling is just a buncha hooey.

Deadly Sins (1995)

Welcome back to Alyssa Milano Month here at B-Movie Enema. Today, we’re going to look at Deadly Sins – a Catholic thriller/slasher flick.

Back when I worked at a video store, I know I saw this movie on the shelf and thought to myself, “I like what I’m seeing here with Alyssa’s face and that little hint of cleavage. I’ll have to check this out.” Well, twenty years later, I’m finally checking it out. I guess better late than never, eh?
