Creature Feature Collection
Contains: Snow Beast, Monsterwolf, Swamp Shark | Released by Signature Entertainment
Signature Entertainment re-release three of their Tesco-exclusive creature features in a special three pack which is now available at all good retailers. We’ve previously reviewed two of the three so I thought I’d repost those together here just in case you’re wondering whether this new collection is worth picking up (Hint: If you love cheesy monster movies and crazy killer-shark flicks it most definitely is!). So without further ado, here’s reviews of Snow Beast and Swamp Shark:
Snow Beast (2011)
Stars: John Schneider, Jason London, Danielle Chuchran, Paul D. Hunt, Kari Hawker | Written by Brittany Wiscombe | Directed by Brian Brough
Snow Beast, shot in 2011, and not to be confused with the 1977 TV movieSnowbeast which starred Bo Svenson and Yvette Mimieux, and is set in the same locale (a snowy hillside) and featuring almost exactly the same plot,...

It feels like it has been too long since Syfy has uncorked some new man-eating monster movies for us to sink our teeth into. That'll change come June when the network unleashes a pair of toothy monstrosities: Ice Road Terror and Swamp Shark. Syfy has posted a trio of bloody scenes from each monster mash.
The carnage begins on June 11th at 9/8 Central when Ice Road Terror reaches its destination on your television dial. Dylan Neal ("Dawson's Creek", "Blood Ties") and Brea Grant (Halloween II, "Heroes") star in this creature feature about Alaskan ice road truckers and a research analyst tangling with an unearthed prehistoric monster. The director (Terry Ingram) and writer (Keith Shaw) of Syfy's Phantom Racer reteam for this creature feature inspired by the popular reality series "Ice Road Truckers". Curiously, though, one thing you will not actually see in these clips is any actual ice road trucking.

*Here be some spoilers.
Director: Griff Furst.
Writer: Eric Miller and Griff Furst.
Tagline: "Dying is the easy part."
Lafayette, Louisiana is continuing to develop an indie film making scene, with Active Entertainment and Bullet Films debuting one of their first slashers this year. The title is Mask Maker, previously Maskerade. Set in farmland, a manor house holds unimagined voodoo curses and one killer with a serious identity problem. He compensates for a disfigured face with the peeled grimaces of others. Not for the squeamish, Mask Maker's best qualities are its hoodoo mythos, the excellent acting, and some exceptionally gory scenes.
A young child is accidentally cut along the top of the skull and soon, infection sets into the wound. Nothing will heal this injury, until his mother turns to a voodoo spell. The stumbling block comes about when she has to sacrifice animals and later humans to keep her son alive.

What if you could walk into a hospital waiting room and an invisible beam of light discreetly detected whether you were feeling fine or were feverish, dizzy, drunk, or dehydrated?
Javier Garcia at the University of Valencia in Spain and Zeev Zalevsky at the Bar-Ilan University in Israel see it happening. Soon. They're aiming to revolutionize healthcare with an optical phone that can hear a person’s heartbeat, measure their blood pressure, and even gauge their blood glucose levels, all from up to 100 meters away. Utilized for surveillance, it will allow sleuths to remotely listen in on or even tape cell phone conversations.
The duo's "opto-phone" hears sounds by shining a focused laser beam on the person. Since skin or cloth is non-uniform, it produces an interference pattern called a "speckle pattern" that changes in response to the way the surface moves. Zalvesky extracts the parts of the changing pattern...

Writer/director Jed Strahm got in touch to tell us about his new chiller Knifepoint, which just wrapped principal photography, and serve up some exclusive pics (see them below). It’s a vicious home-invasion film revolving around Abbie (Katherine Randolph) and her wheelchair-bound sister, Michele (Krista Braun). On Christmas Eve, their apartment is broken into by Jess (Grant Reynolds), his sister Lorraine (Kym Jackson) and their host of criminal followers. When the girls’ parents arrive as a holiday surprise, however, the situation further spirals out of control. Leatherface’s R.A. Mihailoff co-stars; Toolbox Murders’ Dean Jones created the makeup FX.
Strahm tells Fango that, like many genre projects, Knifepoint had its inspiration in its creator’s own worst fears. “The story stemmed from my greatest dread: awakening in the middle of the night to discover that someone has entered my home and is looming over my bed. My feeling is...
