Prolific indie filmmaker Henrique Couto, who credits include Boggy Creek: The Series, Babysitter Massacre, and several Christmas-themed horror shorts we’ve shared over the years, has now brought us Found Footage: The Series, which just arrived on the Tubi streaming service. (You can watch the series for free at This Link.) The first season of this found footage horror anthology series consists of eight episodes from six different directors.

The series has the following synopsis: Take an analog journey to Hell. Press play if you dare as you experience tales of horror, murder, and monsters! In the tradition of Creepshow and Paranormal Activity comes a new dimension in terror!

Couto was one of the directors who worked on Found Footage: The Series. Other contributors include Dan Wilder (Babysitter Massacre: Heavy Metal), newcomers Tim Castle and Joe Solmo, Jb Sapienza (My Name Is Jonah), and Eric Widing (Primordial). Episodes were written by Wilder,...

Have a couple hot nights on the town when the Cinekink Film Festival shakes its groove thing on March 1-6 in NYC. With the exception of the opening and closing night galas, the fest will turn the venerable Anthology Film Archives into a red light district with sexy feature films, documentaries, shorts and more.

The feature films screening tell wicked tales of telepathic peeping toms (Sexual Radar), swingers (Open Invitation) and naive hedonists (Caged). Meanwhile, the documentaries chronicle the history of gay leather (Kink Crusaders) and porn addiction (Run, Run, It’s Him). And there’s all kinds of naughty offerings hidden in the short film collections.

While Cinekink is traditionally all about sex, the main film Bad Lit wants to recommend is all about not getting in: Robert G. Putka‘s hilarious and discomforting Hooka Face and the Virgin Boy. The fest also includes new short films by Bad...

The Evil Dead from director Sam Raimi. The Last House on the Left or The Hills Have Eyes from director Wes Craven. Hatchet from director Adam Green. Q from director Larry Cohen. Night of the Living Dead from legendary George A. Romero. What do these films, these directors have in common with Andrew N. Shearer, you ask? See, those were all low budget films (by Hollywood standards anyway!) from a group of directors who were all passionate about the craft of horror and making statements through that medium on culture and what's going on. That same passion, that same philosophy comes across in Andrew N. Shearer's No budget horror films that take seemingly familiar horror stories and mix that with elements of Gen X New Queer (in this case, lesbian) cinema resulting in films that have distinction and stand out for there originality in what many horror fans feel...

Although Athens, Georgia may not be the filmmaking capital of America, we are fortunate to be home to a particularly prolific and creative group of underground filmmakers who go by the name of Gonzorrific Productions. This independent filmmaking collective creates, in the words of its founders, ‘female-driven, genre-jumping underground cinema.’ Their large catalog of past efforts includes films like Cannibal Sisters and Psycho Vixens. That said, I was very excited to check out Monica Puller's directorial debut short film Foxholes at its big screen premier during Gonzoriffic’s Peepshow...

Foxholes is a unique creature - a film that does indeed jump genres deftly combining what is, in essence, a love story with elements of satire,...

Fem-positive Diy film making collective Gonzoriffic is pleased to announce principal photography has wrapped on Fox Holes, a short film that marks the directorial debut of co-founder Monica Puller. Since first meeting at a punk club in 1999, Puller and creative partner Andrew Shearer have worked closely together to produce over 25 films, including the acclaimed 2007 feature-length mockumentary Fake Blood, which they wrote and starred in. Fox Holes was written, produced and directed by Puller, who also plays the lead role of Autumn Knox alongside Diver Velour (The Erotic Couch) and Devon Peter (Cannibal Sisters).

“Fox Holes is about family, it's about love, and it's about how one moment can impact you," describes Puller...

"It's about how you choose to react to the things that happen to you. It's about how every choice you make can impact someone else. It's about the power we have as people to impact anything and everything just by one single act.
