Hot Shots of the Week: Double Trouble

The 1971 Hammer horror film Twins of Evil is one of my favorites the studio ever produced. It’s wonderfully schlocky, creepily atmospheric, and about as sexy as Hammer horror ever got, thanks largely to the bodacious, identical twin sisters Madeleine and Mary Collinson, who play very thirsty vampires. Poor Peter Cushing is barely a match … Continue reading Hot Shots of the Week: Double Trouble →

The Slumber Party Massacre (1982) has always been one of my favorite slasher movies. The premise is a straightforward Halloween (1978) ripoff—a seemingly fun night turns terrifying for teenagers are picked off by a deranged killer—but that’s part of its charm. Writer Rita Mae Brown and director Amy Holden Jones seem to have had a … Continue reading “You Know You Want It”: The Slumber Party Massacre →

Halloween kicked off … Continue reading Lost and Found: Hell Night →

Bad Girls We Love: Santánico Pandemonium in From Dusk till Dawn

With a name like Santánico Pandemonium, you know she’s gonna be too hot to handle. It’s been a hell of a day for the Gecko brothers. On the lamb from the law—thanks largely to loose cannon brother Richie—they’ve kidnapped a pastor and his two teenage children. At gunpoint they force the family to drive them … Continue reading Bad Girls We Love: Santánico Pandemonium in From Dusk till Dawn →

Elvira in the ‘80s

It’s our favorite time of year, Halloween season, and with that always comes plenty of sighting of our favorite Mistress of the Dark, Elvira. Here’s Cassandra Peterson during her first decade dressing up as the sexiest creature of the night the world has ever known. Many of these volcanically hot shots come from Cassandra’s first … Continue reading Elvira in the ‘80s →
