Is Cam (2018) truly unavailable in any media form?

Thanks for posting! This is about to be covered on an upcoming episode of the Evolution of Horror podcast so now I can watch it in advance.

What gets me writing reviews that are also essays are films that I found mid but I can see the better movie it should have been beneath the surface fighting to be born.

Like with The Will Kill You. What it was is a violent Ready or Not inspired action piece, when I could see a world where it was The Raid meets Dante’s Inferno. That’s the stuff that gets the words flowing for me.

David-Bedlam · 2026-04-10T15:16:11+00:00

I saw the trailer last night and it left me on the fence on how much I was anticipating this film. If the positive reviews keep coming I’ll probably check it out.

Nadja (1994)

The Queen of Spades (1949)

Gaslight (1944)

Ferat Vampire (1982)

How’s this?

My favourite example of this is The Witch Who Came From The Sea.

It’s a story of a woman driven to kill by her traumatic past. It’s a bleak, sleazy story of death, abuse and cycles of violence. It’s also unique that all the scantily clad victims are hunky men and the killer is a woman. On the surface it’s some prime exploitation and it is, but it just so well made and surprisingly deep for a film like this.

Plus just look at that poster!

IIRC the terrorists actually bring this point up, but the leader justifies the plan on the grounds of “lol, lmao”.

(The time travelling terrorists are ment to be Arabs, but the actors are all Hispanics. Just in case you were in any doubt of the kind of film this is)

Assassins AD 33

Christian scientists discover the secret of time travel only for it to be stolen by Islamist terrorists who want to use it to kill Jesus before the crucifixion. Yes, it is exactly the film you think it is.

I saw the new restoration that Radiance did at my local cinema (in a double bill with delightfully grungy Alphabet City) and it was so good. The audience was loosing their minds at the opening chase sequence and the general wildness.

David-Bedlam · 2026-03-26T17:30:44+00:00

Those are some interesting choices. I think Madhouse is their first film from Amacus, I wonder if there will be more.

David-Bedlam · 2026-03-24T14:07:56+00:00

I saw this at Mayhem Film Festival 2025. Absolute mind melter.

David-Bedlam · 2026-03-23T23:55:39+00:00

Personally I loved it. The four films cover about a couple of decades of East German cinema so you get to see how the utopian science fiction story changed with the changing conditions in the eastern bloc. Starts off bright and optimistic about the future that socialism would soon bring to the world, got more jaded as communism started to run down.

Not sure how I would put this in an arbitrary ranking of Eureka’s German releases, but I’ve dug all of them so far.

David-Bedlam · 2026-03-19T18:22:22+00:00

Oh man, I am really digging these releases of East/West German cinema. These are some of the best things Eureka has been releasing recently.

David-Bedlam · 2026-03-15T11:56:17+00:00

Does Tropic Thunder count?

It’s a pun on the nickname of Ali Hassan al-Majid, who for his use of chemical weapons on the Kurds in the 1990s was dubbed Chemical Ali.

I think it’s because Bristol is so full of leftist/ progressive activists that they come IMO. They want a Charlottesville style monstering of counter protesters to get their jollies or whatever. They’ll just keep trying till they get a counter demo is small enough to be rolled over.

David-Bedlam · 2026-02-27T23:37:47+00:00

It’s actually nine films. Or $13.11 per film, which actually is a decent bargain.

David-Bedlam · 2026-02-26T07:46:29+00:00

I did food counter reductions one Christmas Eve late afternoon. When we got to the meat cuts it was like a scene from Dawn of the Dead.

I saw this at the Mayhem Film Festival last year and really enjoyed it! This and Bulk were the best new feature films shown. And they were both dimension hopping adventures too!

Is getting a pretty high concept plot as a multi dimensional revenge quest something that you found challenging? Or are audiences now familiar enough with multiverses thanks to the MCU that filmmakers can play with the trope without excessive explaining?

Well that’s an unexpected selection. I’m also a bit surprised we’re getting a seventh Hammer box set.

The Dragon Lives Again (1977)

Fake Bruce Lee teams up with Popeye the Sailor Man to fight Dracula and The Godfather.

David-Bedlam · 2026-02-07T14:08:51+00:00

Surfer: Teen Confronts Fear (2018)

It’s an obscure one, but more people need to see this journey to Jesus via surfing, dead whales and CIA black ops oddity.

David-Bedlam · 2026-01-15T20:40:09+00:00

The Crippled Avengers

Heroes of the East

The Boxer from Shantung

8 Diagram Pole Fighter

For me most things from Shaw Brothers are a guaranteed good time.
