Baskin (2015) Nightmare Hell Horror fresh out of Turkey (Review)

For seasoned horror and gore aficionados, Baskin popped up as if from nowhere, whetting many people’s appetites as a brutal gore-fest, something that could satisfy an itch with more substance than other crass films that have emerged on the festival circuit.

Ryan Davies 05/07/2015
Society (1989) The Most Infamous Third Act in 80s Horror (Review)
