Trick or Trash is back, boils and ghouls! This week in the Video Dungeon were diving into the VHS-era slash fest that time forgot: in this video we break down Hollow Gate, the low-budget 1988 horror that’s equal parts cheesy, creepy and campy. A group of friends heads out for a weekend getaway… only to run into a mentally unstable killer who really takes Halloween way too seriously. Cheap thrills, awkward dialogue, and of course fake blood — this one has everything you’d expect from a low-budget VHS-era gem. Whether you’re an 80s horror fanatic or just love digging up hidden gems, you’re in for an entertaining ride.

Dr. Niss (William Hickey) is the founder and ringmaster of the "Exhibition of Wonder", a twisted circus that showcases real-life monsters as its main attractions. Bragg (Kevin O'Connor), a cynical and skeptical newspaper columnist who specializes in debunking charlatans, investigates Niss' circus to prove that it is fake. When he sticks his nose where it does not belong, Bragg ends up becoming part of the troupe.Directed by Michael Gornick and written by George A. Romero & Sydney J. Bounds.Original airdate: September 28, 1986

Four weeks before Jurassic Park hit theaters, Roger Corman brought us his own dinosaur movie with 1993's Carnosaur. Tony from ‪@HackTheMovies‬ joins us in the Video Dungeon to talk about this New Horizon Pictures classic featuring special makeup and creature effects by John Carl Buechler and starring Laura Dern's mom! Featuring Dianne Ladd, Raphael Sbarge, and Jennifer Runyon, using a virus through chicken experimentation, Dr. Tiptree plans to turn the entire female human population into hosts for the true rulers of the Earth: dinosaurs. It's up to an environmentalist and anti-hero to go toe-to-claw with not only the mad scientist, but also the ever-evolving Deinonychus and even a massive T-Rex! So take a shot of re-agent and hop in a Bobcat, because we're about to do battle with Carnosaur!

This week in the Video Dungeon we're looking to the cosmos for a silver savior!

Or is this flick a super suck fest? Hop on your silver surf board and let's fly through this Dumpster oddity!

This week in the Video Dungeon we're setting off the nuke to close out The Month of Action and celebrating our 200th episode! We're diving into the gritty, neon-soaked New York chaos of Mutant Hunt — a low-budget 1987 sci-fi action flick packed with killer cyborgs, synth-heavy soundtracks, and all the practical effects madness you expect from Charles Band's Empire Pictures! We break down the wild plot, over-the-top performances, and gloriously wild special effects that make Mutant Hunt a B-Movie cult classic. Whether you're a fan of low-budget sci-fi, retro action movies, or just love discovering so-bad-it’s-good gems, this video is for you.
