Since 2004, Bleeding Skull has explored otherworldly cinema through reviews, books, and home video releases. We shine a light on independent genre films that have flown under the radar but deserve to be seen by all. Fangoria has called Bleeding Skull “The go-to encyclopedia for trash, bizarre, and shot-on-video cinema,” while Vice referred to it as “like a fever dream glimpse into parallel worlds".

Ninja Zombie is the hero we need right now. Shot on Super 8 film in Chicago by director Mark Bessenger, this action-horror hybrid tells the story of Jack—a young martial arts expert who is slain by evil cult leader Spithrachne, only to be resurrected as the vengeance-fueled Ninja Zombie. An explosion of high-kicking, guts-spilling splendor, Ninja Zombie lands at the intersection of 1980s Marvel Comics and The Toxic Avenger, a true Venn diagram of joy and ambition in underground filmmaking.

directed by: Mark Bessenger starring: John Beaton Hill, Kelly Anchors, Michael Weaver 1992 / 87 min / 1.33:1 / English DTS-HD MA 1.0
