Do you listen to podcasts? You really ought to. I’ve pointed you guys to a couple in the past but thanks again to Boing Boing, a blog that really has no business on Cinema Suicide, I’ve found another great resource. This time around it’s Tank Riot, the podcast of Viktor, Sputnik and […]

We’ve been talking about doing this for a few months now and we’re finally ready to roll it out.
As well as being fans of great horror/exploitation/cult movies, a few of us here are also fans of the music that accompanies those movies. To such an extent that we wanted to include that content here but […]

One year ago, today, probably around the time of this post, I launched Cinema Suicide. It was just me and my many ridiculous opinions about movies. It seemed strange for a professional web developer not to have his own website and after many frustrations of websites and magazines telling me that they only published reviews […]

Maybe you noticed it, maybe you didn’t. We went offline for about an hour while we switched hosts. Since the inception of the site, we were mooching off of Andrew Watson and his generosity by sitting in a folder on his host account and we certainly appreciate everything he did for us as […]

Fuck.
I’m not terribly happy with this decision but I was passing up a lot opportunities for networking and traffic generation by being such a snob about Myspace for so long. I had a personal account for freakin’ years until the first of the year when my login credentials suddenly didn’t work and tech support […]

I don’t address modern cult movies here much because I often have a hard time recognizing them. The internet has broken down cultural barriers in such a way that a torrent of culty movies have moved in from all directions. Spotting the ones that will go down in history has become a difficult […]

Seems like things are really happening around here. I’ve been putting my link just about everywhere I can get it and I’m really starting to reap the rewards of incessant blog marketing. I have people contacting me all the time to look at the trailer for their indie movie in hopes of getting some press. […]

I consider BadMovies.org to be one of the most important cult movie sites running. It’s been around forever, first of all. The reviews are always funny and Andrew, the webmaster, is a really nice guy. But more important than that, what puts Bad Movies above other high-profile niche sites like Dread Central and […]

I love a good list. Anything that agrees with my particular point of view or gives me something to complain about is welcome in my world. Thankfully, Time magazine seized the spirit of Halloween and laid out their candidates for the top 25 horror movies of all time. Not only do they pay the slightest […]

This last week has been the balls! Firstly, The Sox won the world series in a stunning show that was as dramatic as the ‘04 post-season minus Schilling’s bloody sock. The only way it could have been any better is if I managed to make it down to Boston for the parade but I’ll settle […]

Ugh. Category III. If ever you want to see some downright malicious movies, look no further than your local Asian video store for movies bearing the Level 3 rating. At different times throughout the history of cinema, different parts of the world have pumped out a fairly consistent burst of intense, morally reprehensible movies. In […]

Very few movies have ever gotten the best of me. I can weather the worst storms ever committed to film but only a few challengers have ever managed to stop me dead in my tracks. I do this out of a twisted sense of duty. I just can’t seem to force […]

At 1:21 PM on August 11th, I became a father to a 21 and 1/4 inch, 7 pounds 8 ounces baby girl.
I’m shocked by my ability to articulate anything at all, let alone the events that have happened since I got home from the record store at 11:30 on Friday night. I found Denise […]
