The Pit and the Pendulum: the Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Packy - Head Llama

The Pit and the Pendulum: the Official Nerfed Llamas Review Hot on the heels of my review of Full Moon Features’ 1994 gem Oblivion, is this review for a beast of entirely different nature, The Pit and the Pendulum. Whereas Oblivion was a fun sci-fi western action comedy mash-up, The Pit and the Pendulum is a straight up erotic horror film. This just shows the depth of the content that Full Moon Features has on display. It is easy to find just about any type of movie in their catalog:…

Oblivion: the Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Oblivion: the Official Nerfed Llamas Review – It’s like Firefly… only better in nearly every way! I know. I know. Lots of browncoats love them some Firefly. I have famously, and to the chagrin of many of my friends, never seen the “magic” that they see in Firefly. I suppose it can easily be explained as part of the Whedon-effect, but that doesn’t work on me as I find Joss Whedon’s shows to be wildly mediocre for the most part (there are exceptions, and yes Buffy and Angel are good enough).…

2nd Annual: May is Officially Full Moon Features Month at Nerfed Llamas! @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Packy - Head Llama

2nd Annual: May is Officially Full Moon Features Month at Nerfed Llamas! Last year I dedicated the month of May to reviews of Full Moon Features movies, discussions of the older VHS rental era, and a movie pitch for Trancers VII: Time Catches Up With Deth… still waiting for Charles Band to email me on the movie pitch. I have the script ready to go, get in touch Charles! It was a lot of fun and it gave me a great excuse to re-watch some old Full Moon classics, as well…

Confessions of a VHS Rental Junkie @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Packy - Head Llama

Hello, my name is Packy and I am a recovering VHS rental junkie, and also Head Llama on this blog. This is my story: If you were born after 1997, there’s a good chance that you probably haven’t ever watched a movie on VHS. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, it just means that you weren’t around for the home video revolution. You see, VHS tapes were the fast widely accepted form of video playback ever. You could buy just about anything on VHS, from your favorite big screen movies to…

Dollman Vs Demonic Toys: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror

Packy - Head Llama

Dollman Vs Demonic Toys: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review – The Incredible Shrinking Movie! I have been building up to this review from the first week of my month long celebration of Full Moon Features. I started with a review of Bad Channels, a delightful sci-fi comedy about an Alien, a radio station, and miniaturized babes! Shortly thereafter I reviewed Dollman, about a cop from another planet that travels through a wormhole to our world to catch a nefarious villain, however the cop has a problem: on earth, he’s only…

Doctor Mordrid: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @jeffreycombs

Packy - Head Llama

Doctor Mordrid: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review – Wherein We Discover That Glitter Glue Is Used In Dimension Warping Spells! I had initially intended to review Dollman Vs. Demonic Toys today, but circumstances have pushed that off a few days. I’ve been viewing most of the Full Moon flicks that I’ve reviewed this month via their streaming service, and Dollman Vs. Demonic Toys (which I have reviewed Dollman & Demonic Toys already) is not currently available on the service, but it’s getting added on Thursday. The show must go on,…

Subspecies: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand

Packy - Head Llama

Subspecies: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review – The “we’re smarter than we look” edition… As we sprint into the home stretch on my month long tribute to Full Moon Features, I wanted to be sure to highlight at least one more of the classic franchises. I had already reviewed Demonic Toys (and will likely review Dollman Vs. Demonic Toys tomorrow), so I didn’t necessarily want to review a Puppet Master film, as they have a number of similarities. There are quite a few Full Moon gems from the late 80s and…

Trophy Heads Episode 1: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror

Packy - Head Llama

Trophy Heads Episode 1: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review – prolonging the magic, one head at a time… Always on the hunt for new and exciting types of content to absorb, I was needing something short and sweet to review today as my time was exceptionally limited. I knew that Full Moon Features had recently released an episodic TV series title Trophy Heads, but I had not taken much time to learn anything about it. The more I looked into their episodic content, the more it looked like that may…

Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror

Packy - Head Llama

Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review – Yes Virginia, that is the actual title of the movie Another day in May is another wonderful reason to continue the month long celebration of the robust catalog of films made by Full Moon Features! After dipping fairly heavy into the horror side of Full Moon recently, I felt that it would be a nice change of pace to try a pure comedy flick. Although not as well known for comedy as they are for horror and…

Evil Bong: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review @fullmoonhorror @RealCharlesBand @tommychong

Packy - Head Llama

Evil Bong: The Official Nerfed Llamas Review – Play With My Hot Wheels… And As Always, “Dry Hair Is For Squids!” This day was bound to happen. When I dedicated my blog to celebrating Full Moon Features all month long, I knew that I would have to mix the modern with the classics. Inevitably that would mean watching their most popular new franchise, which has spawned 4 sequels to date, Evil Bong. Full Disclosure: I’m not a huge fan of stoner comedies and/or films that glorify recreational drug use. If that makes…
