Apirl Fools Day (1986)

"April Fools Day" a cheesy 80's horror classic. A weekend of friends on an Island get away and some April fools day pranks. I mean you know it's a good movie when the guy who played Biff Tanner in the "Back to the Future" movies is the star, I also recognize a few of the cast from some other B-film classics.
Everybody is invited to Muffys' house in the woods for the weekend and one by one they all start dying. The plot definitely isn't original but there are some plot twist that are pretty good. The acting and the dialog aren't the worst I've ever seen but it's still your basic cabin weekend slasher film. This also might the only movie I've seen were a guy gets murdered buy getting his dick cut off, so that's new.
You are not missing much if don't see this one, it's not really gory, no boobs,and the kills are pretty weak.

Nightmare in Wax (1969)


 I had to get drunk as fuck to watch this "nightmare"...... So It goes like this.
The stars of Paragon Pictures are disappearing left and right and Vinnie's  wax museum keeps getting better and better. Vinnie was a  makeup artist of Paragon Pictures who had a falling out with Max Black the owner over Vinnie want to marry Ms. Morgan the studios lead female actress. Vinnie now creates wax sculptures of famous stars and it just so happens that every time a star goes missing Vinnie does a sculpture of them.

So basically Max throws a drink in Vinnie's face while he's lighting a cig and sets him on fire which leaves him scared on the face and let me tell you the makeup on the film is great.... the scar looks like gray bubble gum on his face, oh and he's got an eye patch. Ms. Morgan's new boyfriend Tony Dean disappears after their engagement party and the cops are on the hunt. You kind of know right away that Vinnie is doing the kidnapping they don't try and hide it all in the story line, he's really creepy and weird you just know he's killing these people and making wax versions of them. Vinnie is working on the wax Tony and Tony starts talking and you realize he's not killing these people he's paralyzing them and putting them on display.  It seem that these zombies need shots every once and a while the keep them paralyzed, which soon becomes a problem.
Vinnie tricks a girlfriend of Max's to bring him to the museum late one night and ends up paralyzing them both actually he paralyzes Max and kills the random girlfriend. Vinnie goes to ditch the body and the cops are after him. He ditches the car and heads back to the wax museum to meet Ms. Morgan. So by now the cops know whats going on, one of the detectives hides out in the wax museum to wait until close a see whats going on. Mean while all the sculptures are starting to become unparalyzed and all hell is breaking loose, Vinnie tries to kill Max and ends up jumping in to a vat of boiling wax or something like that and killing himself.
All in all not the worst movie I've ever seen, the acting is good and the filming but there really is no blood or gore which sucks and there no boobs either but what can you expect from a 1969 film.

Brain Twister (1991)

Brain Twister not really gory but it was on a gore box set of mine so I figured I'd check it out. It starts off with some chick jogging down the road all peaceful and shit, then a car pulls up and runs her over (Great way to start a movie just a bummer for there was no blood) it then then leads into some weird  psychedelic color thing with someone tied to a chair watching all these visual screens, its cheesy.
So what I get is this college professor Dr. Rasman  is doing experiments on mind control cause all these kids are bat shit crazy that he experiments with. This student Lori wants to do an internship with the great doctor and the plot thickens. One of his students ends up killing his girlfriend in some mind, rage, freakout and the cops get nosy. So you can see where its going.
The cop ends up falling in love with Lori and she starts to believe the doctor is in on the murders and so on. I'll be honest I was so bored with this movie its not gory at all, no boobs, and its just boring for a gore movie and also it ends with the mind control simulator being a prototype for video game, which is just wrong. It's something you might like to watch if you were high on LSD or something but I wouldn't recommend it a friend.
