While I never really intended it, Apocalypse Later gradually morphed from a place where I could write notes for myself to keep track of old movies to a place where I could cover the sort of films that most critics don't. That could be old movies, foreign flicks or microbudget pictures, but it's often short films or the weird and wonderful obscurities that crop up every now and again and make me grin.
I've reviewed weird films before, not least during the Cinematic Hell project I ran at Cinema Head Cheese that eventually turned into my first book, Huh? An A-Z of Why Classic American Bad Movies Were Made, but I started to focus a project around them in January, 2015.
I call it Weird Wednesdays and, as the name suggests, I post these reviews on Wednesday evenings. My goal is to take a good look at the strangest films out there, from across the spectrum of nations, ages and genres, and eventually build up a collection that's worthy of Apocalypse Later Press publishing in book form. I've included short films in this too, so while some Wednesdays will see a single review of a feature film, others will see a set of two or more reviews of short films.
Titles are listed in alphabetical order not the order in which I reviewed them, but I'm highlighting this week's review.
