I've been a lover/hater of low budget filmmaking from an early age, always amazed by the types of films that got released, either theatrical or more likely direct to video, and I like to shine a spotlight on them for better or worse.

Directed by Richard Friedman

Starring Derek Rydall, Jonathan Goldsmith and Kari Whitman

It’s opening day for the new mall but someone is lurking in the shadows (and ventilation system) killing people.  Turns out the mall developers burned down the house of a holdout refusing to sell and Eric, who survived the torching, is killing anyone involved with what happened to him and taking out anyone who gets too close to his ex-girlfriend.  It’s “Phantom of the Opera” … in a mall!

Starring Martine Brochard, John Richardson and Ines Pellegrini

A tour bus full of tourists (obviously) are getting picked off one by one on a trip around Europe by a killer whose M.O. is removing their left eye.  What could the killer’s motive be and why is this bus still moving after the first murder?  I think the trip would be over at that point.
