PLUG: Cold Fusion Video Reviews

Every year, Cold Fusion Video Reviews has dedicated October as Month of the Living Dead, with reviews of two zombie movies every week. (Yes, I know, some people have a new review every day, but my reviews are frickin’ long — and anyway, how many Romero ripoffs can one man stand in close succession?) In fact, this year’s installment is Month of the Living Dead 10! Ten years, I’ve been wasting my life at this!

Thanks,
Nathan

PLUG: The Golden Age of Crap via Cold Fusion Video Reviews

Just because you can’t respect a movie doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it. The Golden Age of Crap serves up a sampling of junk-food flicks that gained their audiences on videocassette rental shelves during the ’80s and ’90s, a time when one couldn’t visit the video rental store without being tempted by Italian post-apocalyptic adventures, ninja revenge yarns, and zombie-filled “camcorder epics.” The movies covered here run from sleeper hits (Phantasm II) to cult favorites (The Dead Next Door), from unknown stinkers (Plutonium Baby) to undiscovered gems (America’s Deadliest Home Video), all examined with a critical but fun-loving eye.

NATHAN SHUMATE has reviewed genre movies—“sci-fi, horror, and general whoopass”—on his website Cold Fusion Video Reviews for over a decade. He has also professionally written short stories, screenplays, comic scripts, and book reviews. He lives in Utah with his wife, four children, two turtles, a cockatiel, and the neighbor’s damned cat that won’t stay in his own yard.

LAMB #383 - ColdFusion Video Reviews

URL: http://www.coldfusionvideo.com/
Site Name: ColdFusion Video Reviews
Categories: Reviews
Rating: PG-13

What is the main focus of your site?
The subtitle of the site is “Sci-fi, Horror, and General Whoopass.” What I cover falls largely under the heading “genre cinema,” though I don’t always color within those lines. I also lean more toward the seldom-seen and under-reviewed instead of those movies for which you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting a review.

What are your blogging goals, personally and/or professionally? In other words, what, if anything, are you trying to get out your blog?
World domination. Duh. Failing that, I hope someday to be considered the expert on movies that no one else has bothered to study, aka “the guy who wasted his life.”

Do you prefer an interactive community for your blog or are you the teacher and your readers are the students?
If someone can school me back, go for it! (Though I warn you, I’ve got a degree in English Lit, which means that I’m really good at sounding like I know what I’m talking about.) But an interaction is how I know that people are reading to the end of the reviews, so…

How long have you been movie blogging for, and how frequent do you post updates to your site?
The site has been up for ten years, though it spent most of those as a collection of static HTML pages (hand-coded, because I’m old-school). I converted it to WordPress about two years ago. I post one new review per week (outside of announced sabbaticals), with semi-annual “video binge” months of two per week.

Name up to three of your favorite movies (and no more).
Starcrash (1979), Mindwarp (1990), Dead Alive (1992)

How did you hear about the LAMB?
To be honest, I don’t remember. I’ve had it bookmarked for a long time as something I need to get to.

Any additional comments, or give yourself an interview question that’s not listed above.
I use a lot of parentheses.
