The Curator of Schlock #262: Hell Night
The Curator of Schlock #262 by Jeff Shuster Hell Night Pray for day! I keep thinking I’ve covered Hell Night. This would have seemed like the perfect movie to review when I was a younger Curator of Schlock, all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. It’s got Linda Blair in it. She plays the final girl. This is a… Continue reading

The Curator of Schlock #261: The Prowler
The Curator of Schlock #261 by Jeff Shuster The Prowler Pitchforks are painful! Yay. It’s February, which means another week of slasher movies.

The Curator of Schlock #258: Manhattan Baby
The Curator of Schlock #258 by Jeff Shuster Manhattan Baby There’s no baby in this motion picture. We haven’t covered a Lucio Fulci movie in awhile. This is a crying shame that will now be rectified. Italy’s Maestro of Madness deserves an entire wing in The Museum of Schlock. Today’s exhibit is 1982’s Manhattan Baby. It’s… Continue reading

The Curator of Schlock #257: Brightburn Trailer
The Curator of Schlock #257 by Jeff Shuster Brightburn Trailer Leave Superman alone. Just leave him alone. I don’t typically review trailers. What’s in a trailer, honestly? False advertising? Sure.

The Curator of Schlock #255: Wilson
The Curator of Schlock #255 by Jeff Shuster Wilson It’s pretty good. I hope everyone had a good Christmas. I made some of that Hobo Chicken in the microwave made popular by Frank Whaley in the John Hughes’ classic Career Opportunities. I played Smurfs on my ColecoVision for the better part of the day. Still haven’t managed to… Continue reading
