Jack Ketchum's The Girl Next Door (2007)
Two sisters, go to live with their aunt Ruth after the death of their parents. All seems well at first but Ruth's mental state has been deteriorating over time, and the burden of having two more children to care for seems to accelerate her descent into madness. Ruth begins verbally, then physically, abusing the two girls, often while the other children are watching--and often invites the neighborhood to pitch in on the abuse. With Blanche Baker and Blythe Auffarth Directed by Gregory Wilson.
Mustang Sally's Horror House (2006)
Kooky, kinky exploitation flick about six frat boys who spend a night at a bordello, only to discover that the sizzling staff has an axe to grind. You might be tempted to call this brothel a house of...kill repute. As an added bonus, the girls are graced with double entendre nicknames that would shame Ian Fleming, including "Titianna" and "Likilick." With Elizabeth Daily. Directed by Iren Koster.
Sightings: Heartland Ghost (2002)
First, a little Sightings 101. Sightings was a popular mid-1990's reality series, produced by Henry Winkler, that documented paranormal phenomena. UFOs. Sasquatch. That sort of thing. Heartland Ghost is a dramatization of the production crew's scariest encounter with the supernatural, one involving a couple being haunted in their Victorian-era home. Fonz fans will have to settle for Beau Bridges playing the role of a skeptical television producer. Directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith.
Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (1988)
Angela Baker isn't a household name like Freddy Krueger or Jason Voorhees, but she should be, given the teenage body count she's racked up in her three film appearances. While Jason has a machete and Freddy has his fingers, Angela is a transgendered Jack and Jill of all trades— she's just as comfortable killing a victim with an electric drill as stuffing them into an outhouse stink pit. Originally played by Felissa Rose in the straight-faced Sleepaway Camp, here she's portrayed by Bruce Springsteen's sister, Pamela, who's surprisingly at ease with the film's mix of gross-out horror and comedy. And 1980s fans, take note: most of the characters are named after Brat Packers (Demi, Judd and Charlie among them). .
Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)
Kolorful dementedness from the Chiodo Brothers, a trio of special effects artists turned filmmakers, who use the plot of The Blob as a template for an alien invasion movie. Only in this story, the invaders look like monstrous circus clowns. It's all really just an excuse for the Chiodos to let their twisted imaginations run wild, as evidenced by popcorn-spewing ray guns, lethal cotton candy cocoons, and twisty straws used by the aliens to suck blood from their victims. With Christopher Titus.
Highway to Hell (1992)
"Bizarre" doesn't begin to describe this one-of-a-kind B-movie, a loose retelling of a Greek myth about lovers Orpheus and Eurydice. But before visions of a stodgy costume drama fill your head, know this: the plot is basically a wild road trip through Hell, with hotrod-driving Chad Lowe trying to rescue girlfriend Kristy Swanson from a demonic cop. And just when you find yourself reaching for the remote, another nugget of weird comic genius pops up, courtesy of screenwriter Brian Helgeland, who won an Oscar for penning L.A. Confidential. Look for Ben Stiller as a cook at a zombie-lovin' greasy spoon and Gilbert Gottfried as Adolf Hitler.
Slayer (1987)
A group of elite commandos led by Casper Van Dien encounters vampires deep in a South American rain forest. But these are no ordinary bloodsuckers: they can be exposed to sunlight without turning into dust. This revamping of the Dracula mythology never takes itself seriously, and never slows down, thanks to nonstop rumbles in the jungle. With Lynda Carter and Ray Park. Directed by Kevin VanHook.
The Hamiltons (2006)
You don't know quite what to expect when a horror film's directors are pseudonymously credited as The Butcher Brothers. But as the filmmakers spin this tale about four deranged siblings relocating to a quiet suburb after their parents die, it becomes apparent that they've got more on their minds than just standard issue shock-and-slash. Yep, they actually care about plot and characterization. That being said, diehard horror fans can rest easy: The Butcher Brothers also play to their base. You see, there are a couple of young women tied up in the siblings' basement. A basement that's home to a caged creature known as Lenny. With Samuel Child and Cory Knauf.
