Shock 'Em Dead
A struggling musician makes a deal with the devil for fame and fortune, only to discover that success comes with a bloody price. Former adult star Traci Lords headlines this outrageous blend of horror, comedy, and heavy metal mayhem, while Stephen Quadros plays the guitarist-turned-killer at the center of the chaos. Shock ’Em Dead is a cult favorite from the early ’90s – filled with gore, glam, and headbanging rock energy.
My Favorite Brunette
A baby photographer dreams of being a hard-boiled detective, but when he’s mistaken for one, he finds himself in the middle of a dangerous murder mystery. Bob Hope brings his trademark wit to this hilarious noir spoof, with Dorothy Lamour as the glamorous client who gets him into trouble. Featuring Peter Lorre and Lon Chaney Jr. in scene-stealing roles, My Favorite Brunette is a classic screwball send-up of 1940s crime thrillers.
Hellbent
A struggling rock band makes a deal with the Devil to hit it big – but success comes at a blood-soaked price. Fueled by headbanging riffs and outrageous horror, Hellbent is a wild 1980s heavy-metal cult film that mixes satanic bargains, gore, and plenty of campy fun.
The Life Coach
A mockumentary about the rise and fall of Hollywood's life coach to the stars.
