We are deeply saddened by the passing of the immensely talented Scott Spiegel. Scott's contributions to not only the horror genre, but to the movie industry as a whole, cannot be overstated. Our sincere condolences go out to Scott's loved ones during this difficult time.

Finally got a chance to check out THE DEADLY SPAWN, courtesy of @synapsefilms.bsky.social new release!

Some of the best, home-grown creature effects this side of the mid-80’s, the flick is a mean-as-Hell, grass roots monster kid & co. fight back flick that delivers an incredible finale. A must-own!

@synapsefilms.bsky.social newest release of The Deadly Spawn is a fun very low budget 80's movie, but does the 16mm film need a 4k release and is it worth the price? My answer, yes! Check out my YouTube review! Link is in Bio and Story.
