The deformed survivor of a botched coat hanger abortion returns to seek revenge against the pimp who murdered his mother and tore him out of the womb in this grimy horror yarn from Gutterballs director Ryan Nicholson. Low-rent prostitute Rose (Debbie Rochon) was nine months pregnant when her pimp attempted to give her a back alley abortion. Though the fetus, nicknamed Hanger, was thrown in the dumpster and left for dead, he somehow managed to survive. Now Hanger is all grown up, and the streets are about to run red with the blood of society's garbage. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Mardi Gras is supposed to be the ultimate party, but when the employees at a local Voodoo tourist trap begin turning up dead, it's up to a group of vacationing college kids to cast off their beads and catch a killer. Who could be responsible for this bloody killing spree? As the streets of New Orleans fill with revelers, the list of suspects continues to grow. Of course preventing the body count from getting out of hand is their top priority, but it isn't ever day that you get to party hearty at the biggest bash on the planet, so why not suck down a few Hurricanes before setting out to stop the bloodbath? ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

For anyone who has ever felt genuine fear while pondering what's really in that oddly shaped chicken nugget they're about to consume, director Lloyd Kaufman offers a simultaneously horrific and hilarious parody of the zombie genre that takes on the one thing scarier than the flesh-eating legions of the undead -- America's love affair with fast food. Arbie (Jason Yachanin) is a nostalgic romantic with little luck in romance and a bad case of puppy love. When Arbie's high-school sweetheart, Wendy (Kate Graham), returns home after her first year of college, the lovelorn teen attempts to win the object of his affections back by taking her to the site of their first romantic encounter. Unfortunately for Arbie, the ancient Tromahawk Tribe Indian burial grounds have been bulldozed to make way for an American Chicken Bunker restaurant, and Wendy has turned into a left-wing lesbian with a penchant for protesting.

Subsequently beaten to a pulp by Wendy's rough-and-tumble girlfriend, Micki (Allyson Sereboff), and in desperate need of a steady job, disgruntled Arbie applies at the Chicken Bunker despite the fact that Wendy and Micki have launched a tireless campaign against the restaurant. But something supernatural is stirring in this poultry paradise; the spirits of the dead are not pleased that their eternal slumber has been interrupted. As the employees of the American Chicken Bunker begin dying a series of increasingly gruesome deaths, restaurant owner General Lee Roy (Robin L. Watkins) does his best to cover up the scandal and keep his customers in the dark. Meanwhile, the restless demons of the Tromahawk tribe vow to take revenge on the fast-food-loving masses by infecting every last piece of genetically modified poultry that is served at the Chicken Bunker. Perhaps if Arbie can prevent their curse from reaching beyond the drive-through window, he can save the world from a fate worse than trans fat and finally win back the girl of his dreams. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

When an up-and-coming hip-hop star named Rapturious receives a special delivery from his well-stocked dealer, the hellish hallucinations he experiences make him wonder if he hasn't gone completely insane in writer/director Kamal Ahmed's mind-bending horror film. Rapturious (Robert Oppel) may have big talent, but his self-destructive drug habit has recently threatened to sideline any chance of real success. One day, Rapturious's dealer Louis (Hoya Guerra) slips his loyal customer a new drug that he promises will deliver the ultimate high. Intrigued, Rapturious eagerly takes the drug and quickly begins experiencing a series of profoundly disturbing hallucinations. Rapturious's manager Sid (Debbie Rochon) always knew that the rapper was a bit unstable, but when he begins claiming to see demons that are hungering for his immortal soul, she rightly begins to fear that he has finally fallen off the deep end. As his murderous visions get increasingly vivid, Rapturious begins to wonder if he is actually committing the atrocities that he sees unfolding before his drug-addled eyes. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

An innocent sleepover turns into a teenage bloodbath when a murderous chef decides to make minced meat out of a gorgeous group of high school graduates in this retro kitsch horror comedy featuring scream queen Debbie Rochon. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Thomas Smugala helms the direct-to-video drama Apocalypse and the Beauty Queen. The film concerns 26-year-old cover girl Amber, who absconds from Manhattan when her age yields a devastating rejection from modeling. After she flees to a small town, the titular apocalypse occurs and destroys the country. Amber relies on her cunning and ingenuity to band the locals together, and helps them collect supplies and ammunition and stockpile food, but suddenly the power goes to her head and threatens to spin severely out of control. Meanwhile, a friend slyly and viciously manipulates the people of the community through Amber; then a guard falls in love with one of the underlings and brings Amber's authority and control to an end. The film co-stars horror icon Gunnar Hansen (Leatherface in The Texas Chainsaw Massacre). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide

As one of several direct-to-video Canadian slasher pictures issued in the early 2000s, the hour-long Final Curtain joins its sister film, Bonesetter Returns, for a night of blood-curdling terror; like Bonesetter, Curtain was written and directed by low-budget horror maestro Brett Kelly. Curtain concerns a group of ill-fated auditioning actors who -- mysteriously -- find themselves being picked-off, one-at-a-time, by an unknown serial killer. With the windows and doors bolted, the victims-to-be are left to determine who is doing the knife-wielding. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide

A man learns the hard way just how bad he's been to his girlfriend in this independent drama laced with dark humor. Conrad (Michael Rodrick) is a high-strung, impulsive man who shares a home with his fiancée, Jennifer (Debbie Rochon). While their relationship has not always been cordial, Conrad crosses a line when he discovers a pornographic videotape has been left at his front door -- and that Jennifer is the female lead in the movie. A violent quarrel follows, ending with Conrad raping Jennifer. Furious, Jennifer soon gets revenge by cutting off Conrad's penis with a pair of scissors, and then holding his member for ransom. While Conrad is told by a surgeon that his penis could possibly be reattached, Jennifer wants 10,000 dollars for the organ, money he doesn't have, and he discovers she fully intends to use this situation to settle a large number of old scores. Nowhere Man also features a cameo appearance from Troma Team Pictures head Lloyd Kaufman in a rare non-comic role. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

The documentary Something to Scream About features Brinke Stevens interviewing nine other women who have made their living being scream queens in low-budget horror movies. The women discuss their careers, the personal sacrifices they have made, and various hazards of the profession. The interview subjects include Debbie Rochon, Lilith Stabs, and Julie Strain. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

Director Tammi Sutton's superior sequel to Craig Ross' dismal urban clown shocker Killjoy marks both an improvement over the original (on one-fifth of the budget) and the introduction of almost a completely new character, as Trent Haaga's portrayal of the titular bogeymen rises head and shoulders above that of Angel Vargas in the first film. A pair of juvenile detention officers and their streetwise charges head for the wilderness as part of an Outward Bound-type program, only to run into horror and death. Genre enthusiasts will recall the same set-up being used in Tony Randel's 1994 mutant-bug film Ticks, but it still seems fresh here due to both the subject matter and the relative paucity of horror films dealing with ethnic urban youths in the intervening years (the cast is almost exclusively African-American). After a shooting death and conflicts with the obligatory redneck (Sutton), the kids hole up in the home of an elderly voodoo practitioner (Rhonda Claerbaut), only to be menaced by Killjoy. Cult favorite Debbie Rochon co-stars in this entertaining horror film, which was extensively re-edited prior to release by executive producer J.R. Bookwalter to tighten up what he felt was a rather slow initial cut. ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide

Facing one's fears becomes a death warrant in this independent horror film. It's Halloween, and a group of friends who earlier spent some time discussing their favorite horror movies find themselves listening to an underground radio station, which is presenting a call-in show in which listeners are encouraged to discuss their deepest fears for the benefit of the audience. While the twenty-something bohemians call in with the hopes of being purged of their anxieties, a different fate awaits them -- an unbalanced former nurse (Debbie Rochon) is also listening to the show, and she sets out to track down each caller, and murder them in a manner that reflects their worst fear. American Nightmare also stars Chris Ryan, Brandy Little, and Johnny Sneed. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Seduction Cinema's most prolific director, John Bacchus, helmed this standard softcore genre send-up. As usual, there's a good deal of bawdy humor, nudity, simulated lesbian sex, and the omnipresent Darian Caine in the lead. This time around, Caine plays Mistress Helena Frankenstein, who is killed in a horseback riding mishap. Her husband, Victor (John P. Fedele), the great great grandson of the infamous doctor, must find a new brain for Helena and bring her back from the dead. It should come as no surprise to fans of the Seduction line (which also includes The Erotic Witch Project and Play Mate of the Apes) that the new brain happens to come from the skull of a lesbian nymphomaniac, or that the revived Helena shares her unknowing donor's passionate desire for the touch of female skin. After a while, Helena's wanton seduction of the women of Karlstadt vexes the villagers into forming an angry mob, but even they soon fall prey to Helena's unearthly charms. Jade DuBoir and Victoria Vega co-star with John Link, Michael Raso, and cult favorite Debbie Rochon. ~ Robert Firsching, All Movie Guide
