Described as Roller Boogie meets Friday the 13th, Death Rink is a wild new skating slasher that sees the night staff of roller rink stalked and killed by a mysterious figure who they believe may be the spirit of a teenager who was accidentally killed there years ago…
Originally titled Skateway Massacre, Death Rink sits in a very interesting pantheon – it feels like its been inspired by both David A. Prior’s Aerobicide (a personal fave) and Ryan Nicholson’s Gutterballs. Filmed on a similar low budget to both but with less of the Ott gore or uber-violence of either. Death Rink also follows the tradition of many an 80s slasher cash-in, insomuch as it spends more time following its cast talking to each other than it...

Review: Adam Wing. Director: Kimani Ray Smith. Evil Feed is a new horror film that blends torture-porn excess with bruising Mma fight choreography. The Long Pig Restaurant, known in the underground world for its cannibalistic cuisine, has a new attraction. The Pit of Gore is where blood thirsty customers get to watch their chosen courses being slaughtered, as captured elite fighters are forced to battle to the death for their 'tendertainment'. See what they did there? Part of me suspects the filmmakers came up with the word 'tendertainment' first and the rest of the movie just kind of fell into place. Directed by Kimani Ray Smith, written by Smith, Aaron Au and Jana Mitsoula, and starring Laci J. Mailey, Terry Chen and Alyson Bath, Evil Feed came from the mind of Horror Film fanatic and prosthetics master Ryan Nicholson. With 'recommendations' from Jeffrey Dahmer, who claims it's his favourite place to eat,...

Anyone who has met Vancouver filmmaker Ryan Nicholson (Bleading Lady) knows what a crazy f*&^ he is. If you have not met him, then you can see his twisted thoughts on celluloid in this new trailer for Collar. Collar is a true horror film that deals with Satanic violence and cannibalistic urges. As well, Collar stars Nick Principe (Chromeskull), Aidan Dee, Ronald Thompson, Mackenzie Murdock and Nihola Terzic. The story for Collar begins with a rookie cop. She begins her shift like any other day, but something is different. A shadow in an alley puts a leash on this police officer and this man holds her hostage in a bum's shack. The body count stacks up as people are used for their meat. Few will survive this night of terror. Fans of indie horror can preview Nicholson's latest feature, Collar, below.

Makeup spfx specialist and indie director Ryan Nicholson (Famine) is set to lens a new, extreme horror film, titled Collar. This Vancouver native has already joined forces with actors James Duval (Donnie Darko), Nick Principe (Laid to Rest) and Mihola Terzic (Gutterballs) to bring horror fans what they want, more terror! The film begins with a rookie cop, who is lured to a derelict building. Here, the officer is broken down and captured. Then, he is collared by a dog leash and welded to a shopping cart. His captor is a mentally ill homeless man, who parades his new captor around the city's most dangerous areas. An early concept poster for Collar has been released. The graphic keeps the antagonist in darkness, while strange body parts are housed in the shopping trolley. Production on Collar has already begun and more details on the film will be released shortly. Production Date: November 2013 (Vancouver,...

Although Uwe Boll’s 2007 horror flick “Seed” wasn’t one of the strongest genre efforts released by the prolific filmmaker, apparently it did well enough to warrant a sequel. Below you can find the official teaser poster for “Seed 2: The New Breed.” Instead of directing the next installment, Boll will step into the role of producer. Marcel Walz has been tapped to helm the project. Details are scarce for the moment, but it would appear that “Gutterballs” director Ryan Nicholson is tackling special effects duties on the follow-up. Even if the story stinks and sticks to the bottom of your shoes, at least the FX will look nice. “Seed 2: The New Breed” stars Caroline Williams, Christa Campbell, Nick Prinzipè, Jared Demetri Luciano, Manoush, Natalie Scheetz, Annika Strauss, and Sarah Hayden. While you’re waiting for more information, feel free to stare at the teaser poster below. You should...

Tagline: "They were warned. Now, they are screwed." While talking to director Ryan Nicholson (Bleading Lady) at Dedfest '12, he mentioned that he was working on a new indie horror title. It involved a creature and several doomed college students. That film is called Big F&%^ing Monster. This indie horror feature is currently in post-production and some details are available here. Big F*^&ing Monster is a backwoods thriller in which several college students become ensnared by a vicious evil. An internship soon turns into a nightmare as the stuff of legends is brought to life. The story promises lots of bloodshed. Those interested in creature features can preview Big F^%&ing Monster here. The film's first poster is hosted above and horror fans can view the film's mysterious beast early, in the graphic. As well, the film's trailer is hosted below.

*here be spoilers. Director: Ryan Nicholson. Writers: Ryan Nicholson, Taylor Nicholson and Jeff O'Brien. Cast: Beth Cantor, Christopher Patrick Donoghue, Nathan Durec, Dustin Elkins, Karyn Halpin, Glenn Hoffmann, Des Larson, Christopher Lomas, Gustavo MacSerna, Thabi Maphoso, and Ady Mejia. Ryan Nicholson is a Vancouver based director who took the ferry trip over to Victoria for Dedfest '12. Nicholson is best known to this film fan for his sexploitation flick Gutterballs, which featured a brutal rape scene. This cinephile also tried to watch Hanger, but the film's subject matter was too grotesque. Have you ever scene an abortion performed with a hanger? That film was never finished. Now, Nicholson returns with another gorefest titled Famine. This is essentially a slasher flick taking place in a locked down high school. Few students make it out of this picture without a scalping, a knifing, an acid bath and many other shocking deaths. The story is fairly straight.

After viewing director Ryan Nicholson’s insanely demented and extraordinarily insane horror flick “Gutterballs” for the first time, I felt like I needed to disinfect my soul. If you’re a fan of shocking, over-the-top gore, then this particular flick was designed with your unstable ass in mind. Naturally, I’ve seen the first twice since my initial viewing, and I’m pleased to say it’s just as hard to stomach the third time through as it was the first. The level of depravity on display is unreal, and it currently ranks as Nicholson’s best endeavor to-date. Because Ryan seems to understand the power “Gutterballs” has over its audiences, he’s decided to return to these bloodied bowling lanes for “Gutterballs 2: Balls Deep.” In a recent Facebook post, Nicholson revealed that he’s getting closer to a shooting script, which, hopefully, means we’ll see this thing sometime next year.
