A few weeks ago I laid down some trashy truth about a secret slab of sick cinema that I’ve always held in high/low regard. That weird Canadian crapper, er, I mean creeper was called Splatter: Architects Of Fear. I also interviewed the man who was there, way back in 1986 in Toronto, blowing up bodies and cars, practical special effects helmer Ron Craig.

My only concern was that the box promised to take me into the very bowels of gruesomeness and at the time, gore galore alone was enough to sate my appetite for entertainment. I rented Splatter and sat back, ready to be repulsed.
Splatter turned out to be the weirdest, tackiest and most confounding picture I’d seen. Not a feature, the film instead positioned itself as a documentary about the making of a no-budget horror/sci-fi film about zombies, mutants and a slew of faux-punks that looked like they stepped...
