Vigil brings his highly stylized voice to a post apocalyptic wasteland in “Survival Extinction Z”. Asylum of Horrors #2 can be previewed at http://www.asylumpress.com/AOH02_HOME.html.

Tim Vigil burst into the comic book scene with co creator David Quinn in the early nineties with the creation of the horror comic “Faust”. Detailed artwork and Vigil’s over the top story line captured comics fans interest and held it tight for the better part of a decade. Vigil has gone on to work with Avatar Press, Glenn Danzig and many others. “Nominated for awards, works published all over the world, Tim is a god,” explained Asylum Press Publisher Frank Forte. “You say the word Faust to any comic horror fan and they smile.”

Gross Movie Reviews #161
By Tim Gross
Cannibal Terror (DVD) – Holy fuckin shit this movie sucked sweaty nutsack! A dumb ass movie about a couple criminals who kidnap a little girl for ransom only to go hide in ‘cannibal country’. This movie absolutely didn’t make sense at times, examples: this girl at the hideout for the criminals gets raped in one scene then a few scenes later she is trying to fuck the guy who raped her! Another example: the cannibals… Every race on the planet had to be represented in this cannibal tribe! One scene would have two Asians playing cannibals then the next scene looked like it had two English guys playing cannibals! But that shit was at least entertaining. The movie drags, and then drags more until you are in submission. I give this healthy piece of shit called film 0 stars.
Driven to Kill (DVD) – Steven Seagal’s latest movie where he goes all Steven Seagal on people after they kidnap his daughter! Seagal talks Russian in Italian eateries and claims he was once a part of some kind of Russian mob. Imagine “Eastern Promises” meets “Taken” with the bad man himself Steven Seagal. Fuck yeah! I give it 2 ½ stars.
Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow (DVD) – Marvel and Lions Gate released their latest in animated comic book movies where they take the story of after the Avengers have died off. Yes, the original Avengers died off, most anyway to the hands of the evil Ultron! It is years into the future and Ultron have taken over half of the world and is looking for whats left of the Avengers. An old Tony Stark looks over the children of the Avengers until an old friend Vision shows up and is followed and Tony Stark and the teenagers now are found. The story gets even better with the introduction of what happen to Thor, old ass Hulk in hiding, and how Hawkeye’s kid leads the Scavengers in Ultron city. Once again an awesome animated movie as Lions Gate and Marvel did a wonderful job as I give this flick 3 stars.
Total Recall (DVD) – First off, there is several versions of this movie out on DVD now including a special edition that is in a planet Mars tin! Total Recall is one of the best and last films Arnold was in worth repeat watching. Classic one-liners, an awesome sci-fi story, and lots of blood and gore mainly I figure from it being directed by the man who gave us Robocop and Starship Troopers! Arnold wants to take a trip to Mars so he goes to a place called ‘Recall’ that makes you think you have taken a vacation without leaving home until something goes totally wrong or did it as he believes he is trying to help the people of Mars? Watch the ending and you decide but until then you can’t say this movie didn’t and still does kick ass! Hell, Michael Ironside is in it! I give it 4 stars and I’ll see you at the party Richter…
Cat in the Brain (DVD) – A Lucio Fulci movie that is about himself having weird ass nightmares while filming his latest horror flick that seemingly come true. When he sees a doctor about the nightmares plaguing him during filming the nightmares get worse and more vivid. An odd film to say the least but a gore classic to be sure and the new special edition DVD is packed full of Fulci goodness! I give the movie 2 ½ stars.
Severance (DVD) – A UK film about an office group that goes on a retreat to a cottage in the middle of the woods only not to make it there exactly. A tree in the middle of the road stops their bus from continuing so the group decides to walk down a lonely dark dirt road only to come to a cottage that isn’t exactly what they thought it would be. The fun begins when they settle down for dinner and there just happens to be a random pie that one of the workers found lying around and soon they understand they are not alone and being watched. They share stories and rumors of other office retreats from the same workplace disappearing in the woods over the years until people begin to die. The film is funny at times… Bloody at times… and a great overall horror flick needed to be owned by all! I give it 3 ½ stars.
Dirty Harry Ultimate Collector’s Edition (DVD Box Set) – When they mean ‘ultimate’, they literally mean it. It took me an hour to check out all the fucking shit that comes with it to read. I didn’t even get to the fucking movies for an hour because there was posters, replica SFPD Inspector badge, Scorpio file, map of all the victims in the original Dirty Harry, telegrams between the original film’s director and a certain actor (not Clint Eastwood at the time) about playing the role of Inspector Callahan in 1970! Shitloads of stuff people! Not to mention all five classic Dirty Harry films starring Clint F’N Eastwood. Plus, a DVD that is a brand new documentary about Clint F’N Eastwood and how he got his start in Hollywood. If you are any kind of Dirty Harry fan it does not get any better than this box set. This box set is the end all of end all, it reminds me of New Line’s “The Nightmare on Elm St.” box set that satisfied you every which way! I give it 4 stars and you better go fucking buy this set!
Heavy Mental (DVD) – In the late 80s we had “Trick or Treat” and “Rock N’ Roll Nightmare”, now in 2009 we have “Heavy Mental”. “Heavy Mental” is an independent feature that is all about heavy metal music and the headbangers that follow it (like me). The funny low budget flick is about a teenager who is in a garage metal band and gets a guitar that use to be his idol’s until he massacred his band members’ years ago, for his birthday. When the rocking teenager plays the guitar he becomes a huge skeletor-looking metal superhero who wants to get revenge on Mrs. Delicious and her vixen thugs claiming they killed him years ago! If he doesn’t kill Mrs. Delicious before Saturday night’s ‘Battle of the Bands’ all the headbangers and metal bands will be killed, making the city of Detroit metal free. Even though the movie is very low budget, it’s a very funny and entertaining horror/metal film! I personally can see this movie finding somekind of cult status among us metalheads in the future. The film just has that something to it, to be considered a cult film. I give the film 2 ½ stars and can be found and purchased at www.silverbulletpictures.com .
Tapeworm (DVD) – Abortion Bin Productions is at again with another mindfuck of a horror film. This is what I’m getting at is I personally believe Croenberg and Lynch had a love child awhile back and has now formed a low budget company called “Abortion Bin Productions” as they consistently release some fucking weird but entertaining films. Well their latest film can be best describe as David Croenberg made a film on about a $300 budget and decided that he would combine “Videodrome”, “Existenz”, and a dash of “Naked Lunch” into a 114 minute film. Or a film about a detective who gets a strange call from his co-worker who he soon finds violently murdered and is hellbent on finding out on how and why she was murdered only to follow a weird and strange path of visions, violent murders, people infecting other people with recording devices, and lots of naked person torture. Understand now? The film is intriguing, brilliant, beautiful, and yet fucking weird all at the same time if not to say the least it is one different horror/thriller. One problem with the film is the running time. Low budget or not there were scenes in this film that could have been cut down or cut completely making this film even that much more fucking effective! Outside of the length of the film it is just one big cool mindfuck worth watching! I give the film 3 ½ stars and can be found and purchased at www.freewebs.com/abortionbin and www.myspace.com/abortionbin . Want a fucking weird horror film to purchase look for Abortion Bin Productions… you will not be disappointed!
