Customer Reviews

Horror-rific
From fiction based on life to the most terrifying of nightmares, HORRORLICIOUS has enough gore to satisfy the heartiest of fright film fans. Vintage Euro-terror (including movies from Belgium and Yugoslavia) is featured almost exclusively here.

GOTHIC is loosely based on Mary Shelley's life. With her poet-husband Percy and their poet-friend Lord Byron, Mary indulges in sex, drugs and minuets. Their wanton behavior was the supposed fuel for her novel, "Frankenstein."

Castles figure prominently in three titles: DEVIL'S NIGHTMARE, BLOODY PIT and VAMPIRE'S NIECE. Along for the ride are Satan, the undead and a crazed executioner. (Heads will roll, as they say...)

Invite two maniacs to your party and what do you get? Find out in HOUSE ON THE EDGE OF THE PARK.

A vengeful army of zombies wreak havoc in TERROR CREATURES.

A class reunion of sorts is central to SISTERS OF DEATH.

BLOODY PIT features lovely models, and so does SPIDER ISLAND. (SPIDER ISLAND is considered a porno-bomb, for what it's worth.) There's also a group of gorgeous gals in VAMPIRE'S NIECE-- seems like a trend here, no?

Misplaced anger causes a nobleman to murder redheaded women in THE NIGHT SHE AROSE (guess what color his dead wife's hair was?).

For more nightmarish fun from St. Clair, try their CULT HORROR COLLECTION.

Horror and cheese in spades
Did you ever stay up late and watch horror movies introduced by Elvira, or on some Monster Theater cheese fest? If so this is a good collection for you. Some of the movies like Gothic are genuinely creepy, and even have actors you might recognize, but the rest are pure and simple cheesy fun. Watch them in a dark room with someone who spooks easily and enjoy!

Truely Horrorlicious
This dvd collection is a fantastic grouping of some rarely seen films from the 70's and 80's .There are some slight problems with picture clarity on some of the features, but nothing too terrible.I highly recommend "Horrorlicius" for genre fans looking for something different.
