Starting with a fine example of country music over old photos of Nascar, shots of horses and the past exploits of moonshiners, the clueless film viewer is immediately transported to another world: A Freakin Wild World!
Smash: Motorized Mayhem is a kinetic, primal documentary about a fantastic passion—Driving, speeding and crashing old school buses. “ Put the petal to the medal.” The viewer needs to appreciate the finer things in life, such as driving old transportation at wild speeds. It’s all about the adrenalin turn-on of risking life and limb for cheap thrills– driving unwieldy contraptions ordinarily utilized for rowdy, zit-infested school kids, but recently refurbished for a new adventure—the crash, bang and Pow! The Goal of these drivers: “ To be Redneck Racers!”
Orlando Speedworld is the venue in which the main action takes place. Many fans come out to see this exciting demolition derby.

When I first watched pro wrestling as a kid it was amazing. Not only is it “real” when you’re a kid, it simply blows you away. Sports and entertainment rolled into one is the ultimate stimulus for a little dude who’s growing up. It’s why to this day I look back fondly on the old WWF and stars like Randy Savage, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat, Tito Santana, Hulk Hogan, Junkyard Dog, Jimmy Snuka, and the list goes on. But as a little kid little did I understand the profitability of such an organization. I think at the time most of

As a child if I had to pick a top five WWE wrestlers, Junkyard Dog would easily be on that list. First of all the guy called himself a dog. Second of all the song he came out to was “Another One Bites the Dust” by Queen. Lastly, the dude came out with a chain around his neck. Honestly it just doesn’t get better than that. Plus he just had this electric personality and seemed like such a nice dude. I can’t explain it. I just know that I loved the Junkyard Dog. Which is what makes this episode of

While the WWE is probably more popular than ever right now, if you’re me and you’re in your thirties then it’ll never be the same as it was back in the 80s when it was called the WWF. I felt the the wrestlers back then were just “better” in many senses of the word. Better personalities. Better with the camera. Better actors. By the way I know I’m completely wrong. While the athleticism of today far and away exceeds the guys from decades ago, I just felt that it was so much fun to watch. Then again I was all

Vivica A. Fox, Brad Dourif, Innis Casey and Galadriel Stineman square off in the suspense/thriller/horror film "Junkyard Dog" where the deranged owner of a junkyard chooses his 'monthly victims' and holds them captive until it is time for them to die. I worked as a 'key set p.a.' on this film for five grueling weeks in Fairview, Tn. which is located about 30 minutes west of my home in Nashville. The hours were long, the work was…...

When we got word that a direct-to-dvd thriller called Junkyard Dog was coming to disc and VOD this week, we shrugged. Dtv horror movies are a penny a pound and the appearance of a new one isn’t exactly cause to strike up the band, but a closer look at the credit block revealed an interesting cast, specifically lead Vivica A. Fox (Kill Bill) and professional lunatic Brad Dourif, strong screen presences all. And then there was the trailer, a slick – but not too slick – bit of grimy, intense terror. But the element that sealed the deal for the coverage you’re about to read is that the man who wrote and directed Junkyard Dog under the banner of his Bass Entertainment Group was Kim Bass, one of the head writers of one of the funniest sketch com TV shows in history, In Living Color.

Film and television composer Sean Murray defines the sound of Call Of Duty once again with Black Ops, the biggest entertainment launch in history. His dark symphonic score is enhanced by an 80-piece orchestra that features the talent of leading Hollywood musicians and was recorded at the famed Warner Bros. Eastwood Scoring Stage in Los Angeles. Sean's scores have hit on every musical genre from the gothic horror of Buffy The Vampire Slayer to hip-hop action in the successful video game True Crime: Streets Of L.A. by Activision. Among his scoring credits are the controversial television series God, The Devil And Bob with James Garner and Alan Cumming, for Carsey-Werner and NBC; and the deeply disturbing psychological-thriller Junkyard Dog starring Vivica Fox.
Sean grew up in Santa Barbara, California where he learned the craft of film composing by scoring dozens of student movies for the Brooks Institute Film School.

A trailer has emerged for Kim Bass' new horror/thriller, Junkyard Dog. This one falls under that rare category of 'films that actually look better than expected.' It's definitely got the grimy look and creep factor down, and is reminiscent of the Silence of the Lambs, so let's hope the story has something new in store for us too.
Synopsis:
Inspired by actual events, Junkyard Dog is a gritty psychological thriller that delves the demented mind of a cannibalistic serial rapist who kidnaps his tenth victim in as many months on Halloween night.
Junkyard Dog tells the terror-filled tale of Audra Buckman, a nineteen year-old college co-ed, trapped in a month-long nightmare, struggling to stay alive and uneaten while being held captive, left half-starved and repeatedly savaged by Jyd, an oddly charismatic, vicious man-eating monster. Audra's only hope of escape from this hell--and the mouth of a madman--is Samantha Deatherage,...
