RAWHEAD REX (1986) – “He’s a GOD!”

IRISH HORROR MONTH arrives like a bag of marbles dropped onto the stage at a RIVERDANCE performance with the unfathomably awful RAWHEAD REX. Even CLIVE BARKER is mortified about this stinker about an immortal bloodthirsty demon god who is resurrected to raise hell in a tiny Irish town much to the chagrin of DAVID DUKES who picked the wrong day for a countryside vacation. Also, I get to relive my high school days and ask GEORGEANN STRAKOSCH to THE PROM a third time...only this time it's a Broad...

COUNTDOWN TO HALLOWEEN: DAY 16 When the hot new guy next store turns out to be a vampire, life is going to suck (and not in a fun way....) Charlie Brewster (WILLIAM RAGSDALE) can't get anyone to believe his new neighbor (CHRIS SARANDON) is really a vampire. When blood-drained corpses start piling up, he enlists the aid of his sweetheart (AMANDA BEARSE), the class weirdo (STEPHEN GEOFFREYS) and an aging TV horror host (RODDY MCDOWELL) to defeat him. Instead, he just moved them all to the top...

Teenagers break into a furniture store for a night of sexy hijinks only to have their fun undone by a killer with a penchant for costume changes.
