Horror anthology containing 13 filmmakers that were asked to do their contribution to the movie inspired by demons, Lovecraftian cosmic horror, afterlife, ghosts and similar themes. This movie is poor clone of V/H/S franchise, also ABCs Of Death franchise and similar modern horror movie anthologies. When you have cheap budget, you can still make a great movie by writing superb story. Like similar anthologies, this one also has some great segments, especially those found footage subgenre segments, this subgenre being my favorite horror subgenre besides slasher horror. There are also badly written clicheed fillers, without any sense. Central segment which connects the movie is without any sense at all. I counted seven great segments, against six bad ones, so that makes this movie barely decent mark. Acting is criminal but there are some decent actors here and there. Gore effects are lousy or none this being direct to dvd cheap production. But, I have recently watched that Glenn Danzig`s Verotika and compared to that, this one is an Oscar winning material hehe.
Bobby Funk are from UK and they release their debut album with TNSrecords. The whole record starts with kinda weird punk hardcore with uptempo, shouted vocals and Dunc suddenly transforms in almost doo wop inspired melody then to return into nervous noisy punkrock. The rawness and snotty punk is all over the the nine songs with titles like I`m a Cat or very fast hardcore punk miniature Put Your Hands On The Car which transforms into my favorite on this record K Grind being almost thrash punk hardcore and made for fist pumping in the air and stage diving. With song titles like Breakfast Means Breakfast or Best Friends With Kanye you just can`t go wrong indeed. This is energy filled, fast and furious punk hardcore and I can only imagine how fantastic this band must sound live.
Kob Records continues to release great records. This time they released Ashpipe cd called Sbandati to celebrate 13 years on the road of that great band.
Ashpipe play a nice mixture of melodic streetpunk, ska and folk influenced music. There are 19 songs on this record, 16 being taken from the bands˙ previous records, one being unreleased song, one live and one fantastic version of O Bella Ciao. Italian is so nice to sing in melodic punkrock, I just love that language it is so full of life, melodic and energetic, sounds perfect with bands like this one. My favorites are Tolleranza Zero, Hooligans Attitude, Forse Un Giorno, Tell Me Boy. I must admit I have never heard of Ashpipe prior to this release, so it was really nice of Enrico and Elisa to release this one, so people like me have a chance to hear this nice music and awesome record. So, go get this one, you wont regret it.
