PUT THAT BITCH ON ICE! BY: ZOMBIE ' CHODE' ZANE

Heya Dead End Horror sheep that hang out at the Booty Lounge and spend your rent and food money on junk food and greasy hamburgers! It’s Thursday and that means it’s that time once again for us to do what we do. So why not kick on back, put ya feet up, grab some greasy junk food and let me tell you about this movie I just got done watching.

Before I get to the post, why not watch the trailer first:




 “Bikini Girls on Ice.” No shit! I know, I know, another lame-ass horror film with half naked chicks getting hacked to bits by a demented killer. But, hey. Aren’t they all? Look, I know that there isn’t a shred of originality to be found in this film, but I was just in the mood for some mindless drivel. Plus I have very low standards so I’m rarely disappointed. But seriously, if you’re in the mood for a good old fashioned slasher flick, you could do a lot worse than this film.
 So here’s a bit of the particulars.  “Bikini Girls on Ice” is a 2009 American horror/slasher film directed by Geoff Klein. It stars Danielle Doetsch, Cindel Chartland, and Suzi Lorraine. Basically it’s full of wanna be porn stars. Anyway, it runs just about 80mins and can be found on Netflix under the horror section in recently added. So if you wanna dull your mind and lose a few I.Q. points, by all means finish reading this and head on over there.
Like I mentioned before, the plot is just like 1000 movies you’ve already seen but I’ll give you the brief rundown anyway. It’s about a group of chicks who find themselves stranded when their bus breaks down in bum fuck Egypt. Anywho, they make it over to this old, abandoned gas station where, (you guessed it) a killer starts killing them off one by one. Told you it’s fuckin’ predictable. But like I said, aren’t most of these kind of movies?
As for me, I didn’t hate it. Although I tried to. I have to admit, it was one of those movies that are so bad, it’s good. I wouldn’t necessarily watch this one again, not would I go out of my way to own it, but it was still worth 80mins of my day.

After careful debate and half a cigarette, I give this movie a 2.75 out of 5. I mean it’s just a bit better than middle of the road. Like I said, there are a shitload of slasher films out there that are complete piles of fuck. Steaming piles of fuck! But this one, not so bad.
Well, that’s all the news that’s fit to print. Sorry this post is so short but I’ve been doing some work for Yahoo and my poor little pea-brain is all but fried. Before I go, be sure and check back tomorrow. Sasha and I have an announcement that may interest you. We’re gonna be holding a short story contest so you may wanna look into how to enter and the rules and whatnot. So stay tuned.

On that note, take care, stay a-scared, and I am out! Peace peace and fair-food eating grease!

THE GIRLS OF GORE WANT MORE BY: ZOMBIE 'DUH-DUH' ZANE

...”All I wanna do is bang-bang-bang-bang...” Sorry! I got this fuckin’ song stuck in my head and no matter what I do, or how many times I listen to it, I can’t seem to exorcize it out of my dome. If you wanna know the name of the song, It’s called “Paper Planes” by M.I.A.  Yeah, I know it’s old, but whatever. I just heard it the other day. So if you’re gonna hate, fuck off upstairs!

Anyway, it’s Friday afternoon and it’s time once again for us to have a little chat. So without further ado, let’s kick this off the right way...Coming to ya live and direct from the shitty-ass heat capital of the word also known as the seven six one oh seven, it’s me, Zombie ‘Effing’ Zane!  What’s good horror fans that stay up all night and drink water while watching your digital clocks. Hope everyone is ready for the weekend. I know I am.

For today’s post, I’m gonna be yapping about a movie I watched just a couple of days ago. Ever heard of the movie, “The Gore Gore Girls?” No? Well, why not kick on back a while and let me educate. I mean, what else do ya got going on?

“The Gore Gore Girls” is a 1972 horror film directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis. Other films by Lewis include, “Monster A Go-Go,” “The Wizard of Gore,” “Blood Feast 2: All U Can Eat,” and “Two Thousand Maniacs.” Back to the “Gore Gore Girls.” This film is probably best known for two scenes: The whole nipple lopping thing, and the scene where the killer beats the shit out of this girl's bare ass with a fuckin’ meat mallet. OUCH! Anyway, this film can be found on Netflix and it runs just about 85mins. So if you wanna give it a look-see, hit Netflix after ya read this post. See, I just planned out your Friday night for ya. No Thanks necessary. It was all my pleasure.  Let’s get to the plot, shall we?   

Basically the movie goes about like this: A psychopath starts knockin’ off all these strippers from this nightclub. And he not only kills them, but does some pretty nasty shit to them. Ala the whole nipple severing reference, and the butt cheek massacre. So this reporter and this private dick (NO, Not that kind of dick! I mean a private eye you bunch o’ perverts!) Anywho, this reporter and this detective try to gather clues and find the killer. Now I know that the plot is basic, but you ain’t watching it for the plot. You’re watching it to see something nasty. And by the way, this film was one of the first, if not the first horror film to get an X rating. After all, it was directed by the grandfather of gore.

As far as what I thought about this film, I thought it was ok. It did have some pretty nasty-von nast-nast stuff in it. And with careful consideration, I have to give this gore fest a solid 3 out of 5.Yeah, I know some won’t agree but whatever. I mean this film did what it was supposed to do. Shock and make you squirm. This isn’t something that you just wanna sit down and peep out. Ya gotta be in the mood for these kinda films. If you aren’t in the right frame of mind, then you’ll most likely hate it. Just a word to the wise. Be in the right frame of mind before you check out this film, yes?

So know that I told you my take, wanna see some of the nasty shit? Me too! I got a couple pics from the film that I can share with you...    
















EWW! That's the nipple slicing scene that I was talking about....


















Want some gum?























All right gore fans. That's all I got for the this week. Sasha and I'll be back next week doing what we do and doing well. So until then, take care, stay a-scared and I am out!

Review this by Sasha Slaughter

Movie review time!! This week Zane and I watched Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. The movie is about Henry Lee Lucas, who was once listed as America's most prolific serial killer. Don't forget to check out Zanes other article about true horror movies.

The movie came out in 1986 (it's older than me!) and was directed by John McNaughton. It starts out with several scenes of dead bodies, all women. It didn't show the women being killed, but it's pretty obvious they were murdered by Henry. And one particular scene was gross, a dead half naked hooker with what looked like a coke bottle coming out her face....ewww! He often stalked his victims until he was able to get them alone to kill them. He lived with a man named Otis, and his sister Becky that came to live them after being abused by her husband. Otis confided in Becky that Henry admitted to killing his mom, and Henry later told Becky that he did. While Henry and Otis were out one night they picked up two hookers and went into a back alley and Henry proceeded to break both of the hookers necks and dump them into the alley. That was when Otis found out that Henry was killing people.

After spazzing out because he couldn't get good reception on the tv, Otis kicks it and breaks it so he and Henry go to see this guy in a garage to buy a tv. He doesn't offer them a fair price and they decide to leave until the guy gets smart. Henry stabs the guy in the hand and then in chest and then smashes a tv over the guys head and tells Otis to plug the tv in, which electrocutes the guy. Eeeek! After that Henry starts to teach Otis how to find people to kill by pretending the car was broken down and when someone stopped to help, Otis shot them. (My gun is bigger than your gun!...ha.) They took a video camera from the dead tv guy and filmed themselves killing a family in their home.

Becky decides that it's time for her to move back home and asks Henry if he wants to go with her and he says he'll think about it. He takes her out to dinner and they come home and Otis is passed out so Becky takes Henry into her room and starts undressing him when Otis walks in. Henry leaves to get cigarettes and comes back to find Otis raping Becky (his own sister....PERV!) and he throws him off of here. They start to fight and Becky grabs a comb and stabs Otis in the eye and then Henry stabbed him in the chest and killed him. Becky freaks out and Henry takes Otis into the bathroom, drains his blood, and dismembers him to he can fit him into trash bags. They pack their stuff and leave and on the way out of town they stop to dump Otis's body into the river.

On they way to the motel Becky says that she loves Henry and he says he loves her too (Well actually he said "I guess I love you too"..how romantic!..sarcasm) and they rent a room and talk for a while before he suggests that they go to bed. In the morning Henry leaves the hotel alone. He pulls over onto the side of the road and pulls Becky's suitcase from the trunk of the car and puts it on the ground, gets in the car and drives away. There is blood coming from the suitcase, so it's obviously Becky's body inside of the suitcase (so much for love huh??).

Thats it for Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. It was kind of hard to review really. There really wasn't much of a plot to it. Overall I'd give it a 2.5. The acting was ok, there was some blood, a few murder scenes, a rape scene (they didn't really show much though) a little nudity ( boobs and a butt) and the total body count was 15. There was alot of death, but not many actual death scenes. So there you have it! Until next week, take care and check back next friday!!

HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A FREAK SHOW by: Zombie Zane

WHAT IT DO! WHAT IT DO! Zombie Zane here as usual coming at ya live and direct from deep in the heart of the seven six one oh seven. It’s that time once again for me to share with you another movie review. This week Sasha and I were all about ‘true story’ horror. Ya know, films and shit that are inspired by true events. And there are a ton! So after reading this movie review, be sure and check out our other stuff.
For this week’s film, Sasha and I decided on ‘HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER.’ Have you seen that one? No? Well shit. Kick on back for a sec and let me tell ya what I thought about it. Or you can read Sasha’s review. Either way, take a sec and educate yourself.

‘HENRY: PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER’ is a 1986 horror film directed and co-written by John McNaughton. It stars Michael Rooker as Henry, Tom Towles as Otis, and Tracy Arnold as Becky. It runs just over 80mins and can be found on Netflix instant watch. So if after you read this and wanna check it out, it’s readily available.

So this film is based loosely on serial killer Henry Lee Lucas. I say loosely because this film is more based on his accounts of what happened rather than the stone-cold facts of the case. He confessed to like 600 killings but I think he was only found guilty of 11.

Overall I liked this movie okay. It’s not the best Lucas film I’ve seen, but it’s the most unique. There is another film about Henry Lee Lucas that stars Antonio Sabato Jr. I think the name of it is ‘DRIFTER’ and that can be found on Netflix as well. On second thought, we should’ve reviewed that one. I caught the last hour of it on Chiller a few months back and was really impressed with it. But alas, we didn’t so whattaya gonna do.

SO this film focuses on Lucas as he leaves a trail of dead bodies in and around the Chicago area. Sometimes his perverted sister-fucking roommate helps him out and sometimes Lucas rides solo and does the murders himself. Really there ain’t much to the plot, it’s just about a dude going around and killing people. It is dark and there is some pretty harsh content, and it isn’t your typical slasher/serial killer film. No half nekkid chick running and falling down in the woods so it gets some cool points for that. In fact, considering the year it came out, it is a total different beast than what was out there at the time. The mid 80's was saturated with your typical slasher films. Believe me, I own a lot of them. Ok, let Zombie Zane break this movie down a lil further for ya:

ZOMBIE ZANE’S BREAKDOWN:

BODY COUNT: 14 (Now, not all the murders were shown, but the bodies were.)

SEVERINGS: 1 (One noggin gettin lopped off!)

NUDITY NUMBER 2 out of 5 (Boobs and butt. No bush, no panty hamster, and no tool shed.)

SEX SCENES : 0 (I don’t count rape as sex scenes. It’s gotta be consensual to count.)

GORE SCORE: 2 out of 5 (Not overly bloody, but there is some violent content)

MY SCORE: 2.5 out of 5. (Middle of the road for me. Like I said, ‘Drifter’ may be a bit better)
Well, there it is. Make sure you read Sasha’s review as well. It’s always cool to check out her stuff. Ok, then. That’s all there is and there ain’t no more. Until next time, take care, stay a-scared and I am out.

THE SICKEST OF THE SICK!! by: Zombie Zane

What it do! What it do! Zombie Zane here once again coming to ya live and direct from deep in the heart of the seven six one oh seven. How goes it folks? Hope all is well in your corner(s) of the world. This week at Dead End Horror, Sasha and I are talking serial killers. I think she’s doing an article on Albert Fish who is one of the most evil serial killers ever. And as for me, I’m doing a nice little piece on some of the not so well known serial killers. In addition to all of this, Sasha and I also watched the film ‘8213 Gacy House’ and we both have reviews of it up so be sure and check those out. In any case, here are some of the less known serial killers:

Ever heard of a dude named Pedro Alonso Lopez? (We need some more lemon pledge) He’s also known as the Monster of Andes. This crazy shitter killed like 350 women and children. He would only kill during the day so that he could see the eyes of his victims more clearly. (Sick fuck) When he was captured he told the authorities that if he were released, he would continue to kill. After a 20 year bid, he was released near the Cambodian boarder and where he went after that, no one really knows.

What about this guy. Ever heard of Herman Webster Mudgett? Also known as The Devil in the White City. This cat was a scam artist turned serial killer. He offed the dude he worked for, took over the dude’s pharmacy business and used his income to build a hotel for tourists that would be visiting the White City of the famous World’s Fair. This wasn’t just a hotel, but a murder factory. He would keep the tourists locked up for months in some of his secret rooms. Most of his victims were killed via blowtorch devices while they slept. His body count is not known but it’s estimated that over a four year span he wasted 50 people.

The next dude on my list is a French guy by the name of Gilles de Raise. Nickname: The Pious Monster. Now this dude is for real fucked in the head. He would lure young boys (or young girls if he had no other option) to his home where he would molest, torture and kill his victims. He was also known to jerk off over their dying bodies. EWWWW!! His body count his anywhere from 80 - 200. But some think it may be as high as 600.

Here’s another wack-a-do. The Butcher of Rostov. Also known as Andrei Chikatilo. This guy had an orgasm/killing fetish. He would blow his wad while killing his victims. He’d use money and booze to lure female whores. He would try to rape them, but he was unable to get it up. So he would just kill them and blow his wad in his pants. Eww, gross. He was shot by a firing squad on Feb. 14, 1994. Happy Valentines Day!! His body count was around 50.

The last guy I got for ya is one Andrew Cunanan. He only offed 5 people but mostly he’s known for killing Gianni Versace. Unlike most serial killers who hit the streets to find their prey, this dude was all about killing the rich. He was described as articulate, charming, and highly intelligent. He had extreme sexual tastes and sadomachistic inclination. He was also very easy on the eyes. Bad combo and he used it to his advantage. He only killed five people but still he makes the list. He committed suicide before capture in a Miami houseboat.

Well, there it is. A few of the lesser known serial killers. I gotta tell ya, what a trip that was doing the resarch for this thing. I feel I need to go to church and get a hug from my momma. Anyway, be sure and check out Sasha’s stuff it’s sure to be good. Until next time, take care, stay a-scared, and I am out. See ya next week at DEAD END HORROR.

BANG BANG BANG UP YOUR ASS!!

YO-YO-YO AND HELLO!! Zombie Zane here once again coming at ya ass live and very direct from the seven six one oh seven. How the hell are ya? Most likely you’re bored outta ya gord if you’re sitting here reading this. But in any case since you are here let me tell ya what we got going on this week at DEAD END HORROR. This week, Sasha and I are doing the serial killer thing. Not meaning that we’re doing the killing. Just the watching. Wait, Am I fucking up this monologue? Probably. I don’t even know if monologue is the right term. I think the term I’m looking for is introduction. Whatever the fuck. Let me start again. This week Sasha and I are covering the topic of serial killers. There, that sounded better, yes. So we decided to watch the film, "8213 GACY HOUSE." Seeing how John Wayne Gacy was a bad mo fo in the world of serial killers, we decided that this would be a perfect film to go with our whole serial killer thing ya dig. So if you haven’t seen this movie or even if you have, kick on back for a sec and let me tell you what I thought about "8213 GACY HOUSE.."

First off, it’s an Asylum film. SO that should tell you something. Secondly, You can expect a ‘Blair Witch’ or a ‘Paranormal Activity’ kinda deal. Ya know, the over-played new found footage shit. So if those kinda films aren’t your thing, then don’t bother. But please stay and read this review. God that sounded desperate. But stay anyway. PLEEEEASE!!!

"8213 GACY HOUSE" is a 2010 made in the USA horror film by the Asylum. (The Asylum is an American film studio and distributor that produces low budget films usually in the horror genre.) "GACY HOUSE" was released in September 28, 2010. It runs just about 90 minutes and can be found on Netflix.

Basically the plot breaks down like this: A group of paranormal investigators decide to wire and check out the house that was built on the site where the original John Wayne Gacy house stood. The film shows you what happened that night to the investigators as they did their investigations. As I said earlier, it’s one of those lost/found footage film type of deals. So that being said, I was really expecting more from this film. I saw ‘Paranormal Entity’ (also by the Asylum) and really liked it. But this movie really fell short. It was slow, it took forever before the really good shit happened and it just didn’t do that much for me. There were a couple of cool scenes but most of those happened in the last ten minutes of the movie. Sasha and I spent a good deal of the movie debating whose boobs were bigger. Hers or the psychic girl in the movie. I voted Sasha. I’ve seen both so I can judge fairly. Point being, this movie really didn’t hold my attention. I mean none of the killings were ever really shown, they were just rather implied. There were medical reports to read at the end of the film telling you what happened to the investigators. Most died of asphyxiation, except for one poor bastard who died by taking it up the ass by the ghost. That ghost went rumph-rumph-rumph up his ass!! I wonder if the ghost bothered to use KY?

Moving right along. Let me break this down a bit further for you:

BODY COUNT - 7 - A good number but you didn’t see any of the killings...

SEVERINGS - 0 - A big fat nada!

NUDITY NUMBER - 0 out of 5. Nothing here but a few sideways titty shots and a couple of quick glances.

SEX SCENES - 0 - Just a quick scene of some dry humping.

GORE SCORE - 0 out of 5. Not much here either y’all. Very disappointing.

MY SCORE - 1.75 out of 5. BORING!! That’s all I need to say here.
Well, there ya go. My take on "8213 GACY HOUSE." Maybe you’ll watch it, maybe not. But until next time, take care, stay a-scared and I am out!
