J. R. Bookwalter titles on VHS / R.I.P. Tempe Entertainment

It is sad to hear that Tempe Entertainment is selling off it's stock and closing shop for good.  I found this out earlier this month via Ian Jane's amazing Rock Shock Pop forums .  I am a huge fan of his films and own them all. Robot Ninja was How I forst discovered Bookwalter's films, back in 1993 on VHS. I thought I would post a couple of VHS editions from my collection of J. R. Bookwalter titles:

The first is Chick Boxer:

and the second is Robot Ninja:

This is depressing news, in my opinion, and I wish I had the money to buy up the companies titles.  Please check out J. R. Bookwalter's Facebook page and purchase his films.  So many great films, in my opinion, from Ozone, Zombie Cop, Robot Ninja, Chick Boxer, Maximum Impact, Witchouse 2 & 3, etc., it is truly  sad to see this company close it' doors. Also check out the blu ray release of Robot Ninja in 2019.  R.I.P. Tempe Entertainment.

Coming soon and channel updates

Coming soon is a write up on this excellent character study from producer Raymond Stross, one of his many films, which starred his wife, Anne Heywood.

Also there are two new videos over at my Youtube channel covering books & DVD's.

Happy Halloween : Invitation To Die (2014) short review

Invitation To Die (2014)

written by John Klyza & Dustin Ferguson

Directed by Dustin Ferguson

Invitation To Die is a 2014 film wriiten by Dustin Ferguson & John Klyza and directed by Dustin Ferguson. 

After receiving an ominous message via a fortune telling machine, Brea ( Breana Micthell ) is invited to her 10 year high school reunion.  Driving to the address given in the invitation, she stumbles upon a creepy dilapidated building.  Investigating the abandoned house, she is stalked by a clown mask wearing killer ( Jarad Allen ).  Who is the killer chasing and tormenting her?  What is the link between her nightmarish pursuer, the deserted domicile, and her past?

Invitation To Die is another excellent collaboration between Dustin Ferguson and John Klyza, who both made the amazing films: Doll Killer (2013), Cheerleader Camp: To The Death (2014), and Silent Night, Bloody Night 2: Revival (2015).  It is a moody retro throwback to classic slasher tropes and shot on video films.   A character piece filled with a quiet, eerie atmosphere, unique pacing, great utilization of locations, and artful shot / lighting compositions, Invitation To Die is a microbudget masterpiece perfect for Halloween viewing. That's just my opinion. Your's may differ.
