ELECTRONIC GOBLINS: CLAUDIO SIMONETTI AND HIS WONDERFUL TOYS |...

May 12, 2023 | diaboliquemagazine.com | Phillip Jeffries

Photo credit: Pino PanettaAs an outfit, or band, Goblin were all but kaput with the completion of Dario Argento’s Italian cut of George A. Romero’s Dawn of the Dead (1978). Romero, upon hearing what Caludio Simonnetti and company had done with Argento’s Italian release, was so impressed he had Goblin’s score slapped back upon his own cut and re-released in American cinemas. Whatever the original (apparently orchestral score) had sounded like beats the ever-loving hell out of me. Have you heard it?
“Everybody’s Drowning in The Neon Slime” Vice Squad (1982) |...

May 4, 2023 | diaboliquemagazine.com | Dave Wilson

Gary Sherman’s gritty, grimy, sleazy action crime thriller, Vice Squad (1982), is so steeped in the gutters of the downtown streets of the early ‘80s Los Angeles, it is almost as if we can feel its filth on us, its stench, that we need to have an obsessive wash when it is all over. It extensively depicts the era’s low-living American society— prostitutes, pimps, pushers, junkies, and freaks.

This is not the Bronx or Brooklyn… it’s not even New York… it’s Chinatown, White… it can be very easy or it can be very hard.” John Lone’s slick and eloquently evil Triad boss Joey Tai, in his attempt to bribe Mickey Rourke’s incorruptible Stanley White, a Polish-American, Bronx born and bred, hardboiled, highly decorated, NYPD captain, and Vietnam War veteran.

The Terror Before and After the Mask: Friday the 13th Part III (1982)

Jan 20, 2023 | diaboliquemagazine.com | Dave Wilson

It is hard to view Sean S. Cunningham’s Friday the 13th (1980) in a vacuum, away from the franchise he unintentionally created, due to its poster boy slasher Jason Voorhees and his infamous hockey mask becoming so recognizable, not just as a cult figure in the horror community, but also in wider mainstream culture. I certainly could not separate the original film from its subsequent series when I first saw it as a budding11-year-old horror aficionado in 1990.
