Movies Galore Interviews Director Dakota Bailey of “My Master Satan” and “American Scumbags” check it out!
Interview by David Strege of Movies Galore of Milwaukee with film maker Dakota Bailey of Denver, Colorado!




DB: Yes, I am in the preliminary stages of a sequel to American Scumbags. It will bring back my character Johnny, Billy, Wheelin’ Deals & Angel. And of course it is going to introduce new & twisted characters. Then after that I am going to make an extremely trippy and weird underground horror film similar to My Master Satan but it will be its own entity entirely, I am contemplating releasing the two films at the same time or may be a month apart. It is my goal to film & release two films for 2017.
Movies Galore takes a look at Director Tod Sheets “House of Forbidden Secrets” from 2013!
Written by David Strege
Let me just say I’ve sort of followed Mr. Sheets carreer from Brain Damage years, to Pendulum Pictures on into Camp Motion Pictures with his Zombie Trilogy… and after a heart attack it’s like he became a new man in horror generating a new legion of horror fans beginning with this film as his comeback but true story…
I’d actually been trying to get a hold of a copy of this film straight from Todd himself and I’m not kidding it seemed even forbidden to a fan like me! Ha ha!
But finally a copy arrived so here’s my description of the tale as I see it on film:
Jacob Hunt (Steele) has lost his family and a lot of stuff has happened to him that’s been down lately but he’s just landed a job over night at the security job of his life in the old Shadowview Manor.
A film crew is also there at the Manor filming a seance as its the Anniversary of a Massacre that happened once in the house… Brad an employee of Mr. Bruce Kane is also at the Manor this evening as well as there’s a crack in the wall that hasn’t been fixed… unbeknownst to Brad is a doorway to a time dimension of that evil time period that stays alive on the grounds…
A Ms. Fremont is there at the seance to contact her dead husband as well as Jackson Kincade, one of the security or handymen in charge, along with the Medium Cassie Traxler (Santorella) and her freind Hannah Martin (Tarbell) whom Jackson appears to have an attraction to…
Cassie tells a fellow paranormalist Tamara that they’d just channeled some of the strongest energy in her life as a researcher… which is exactly the kind of sign she’d been looking for…
Anyways Jacob is a little spooked but Jackson was hyped about it… until they noticed Mr. Kane’s Office was rifled through like something had happened…
Eventially the group learns that the Manor was the grounds of a Brothel where a preist named Elias Solomon (Lew Temple) over a matter of a whore carrying his child was missing took and murdered everyone and before he did was cursed by the Madam of the Brothery for his doings….
I personally feel everyone here as an actor or actress played their parts spot on so I believe there wasn’t a problem here… the effects in this film were definitely Gordy when it came to the part of a certain Ms. Femont that is…
I guess I even like that Loyd Kaufman showed up as Cassie’s daughter’s Grandfather which to me is always a good sign that this’ll be a movie up my Alley and I think many others.
This film not only dealt with make up but it also had a little creature puppetry with the beast character kind of like the gateway character between the time dimensions…
To be honest this is and has become one of my favorite films as though I’m not going to tell the ending it’s also not a happy ending it kinda leaves ya wondering…
I totally recommend this film for other horror enthusiasts as I think you will too! Enjoy!

Movies Galore takes a look at Director Dakota Bailey’s 2nd film “American Scumbags from 2016!
Written by David Strege
Once again Denver Director Dakota Bailey of R.A. Productions brings us another view into the Underworld of drug dealing with three interconnected stories of Sadistic disorder…
In the city of Sundale a dealer named Lucifer (Benning) has just been let out of prison whom owes money to Kingpin drug lord Chester (Epstein), enlisting the help of Hitman Johnny (Bailey) to do his bidding as Chester fronted a lot of drugs and hasn’t come through…
A psychopathic Sadistic convict named Billy we find pissing on his mothers and others graves, hooking fake ball sacks to license plate and contemplating his life stories…
A drunk war vet, and A recently released Sex Predators viewpoints in the mix…
As his second feature I feel that this film has a much better audience right off black and white is in… the punk and emo scene is in and an age of violence… on the other hand I feel like his character Billy could almost have his own movie as a drifter and an exconvict he has that don’t give a flying fuck attitude…
also notice the effect the video has Of sliding naturally from scene to scene not as choppy as his SOV feature previously but it was VHS what else can you expect on a VHS.
As for Lucifer he looked a little paranoid with flees as he was scratching under pressure…
i have to say I enjoyed this feature better then Dakota’s first film but I actually like both his first was sort of an Anti-Film this second is certainly better acting much better worked on storyline, even though it’s just as random by peicing together and connecting each characters this time they each stand alone…
Shall I mention the live skinning of a Rabbit?
There’s also a sort of reality to all of this even though the characters are fiction it’s quite possible there are characters exactly like this out there. There’s other things I could mention but I’d rather you go see it yourself…
Theres certainly not as much music intermixed into this film but there was definitely a punk era feel to American Scumbags.
I enjoyed it, Reccommend this just as I did his first film and look forward to future projects!
P.S. Who sends shit in the mail lol!
Starring Dakota Bailey as Johnny, Larry Bay as Wheelin’ Deals, Vince Bee as Ted, Nick Benning as Lucifer, Fred Epstein as
Chester, Darien Fawkes as Billy, Katy Katzar as The Ex, Matt Marshall as Marshall, Bill Schafer as The Boyfriend, Bianca Valentino as Angel.
Movies Galore takes a look at Director Dakota Bailey’s feature film anthology “My Master Satan: 3 Tales of Drug Infused Violence” from 2016!
Written by David Strege
If you like Death Metal, Satan and drug infused with murder in an 80% SOV than R.A. Production’s director Dakota Bailey is your man…
We are given an introduction by Satan supposedly himself of these three tales of Men who are Rotting forever in hell for their deeds…
In “Satan’s Coming For You” Bubba blatantly gives his buddy Allister (Bailey) a call to help him dig up his not too recently murdered wife… by him… which then on going on an acid trip decide to go murder the man who fucked his wife… and for a moment chat with the firey man himself, Satan…
In “Nights of Depravity” Charlie (Knapp) calls his freind Allister to kidnap a dog for ransom and other acts of random murder and pranks of depravity… a security type dude rolling around in a golf cart fends off a drug dealer by the name of Little Blunt as he’s dealing in ” Dealin’ Dick’s” (Bay) territory… whom orders a hit out on “Little Blunt.” Shall I mention a blowup doll in the mix with no honor amongst thieves?
In “My Master Satan” Allister is once again called to do some nightly Peepin’ Tommin’ on a new woman in town… along with a few Break-ins for goods and murders of the splatter kind… Until “Dealin’ Dick” decides to perv on Allister’s Mom things get ugly… as this cat needs to be boxed in… em taken care of…. and Bubba’s back to take a trip with Allister to see Satan, again…
i think these tales go to show you what kind of things you might do if you were on drugs or part of a drug ring that sold their souls to Satan… as none of these characters give a fuck about what they do to get ahead… due to the fact this was almost all filmed on VHS, almost gives it a black and white kind of look to it so definitely this was a Hail Mary Ode to Allister Crowley and Satanist Worshipers but also I feel a rememberance of the days of VHS and the arcade…
I think Bubba (Marshall) was the stongest character involved as his was almost romantic as even though he killed his wife and the dude who’d cheated on him he still seemed he loved the woman…
I also noticed Allister’s Voice was always changed as if he was croaking his voice… the same voice as Satan…
Each of these tales follow their own drug infused tales and in the end every one gets their own… it certainly won’t be an anthology loved by all as there are moments of slowness to get to what Dakota wanted to film but I feel that in a way this was his own homage to the world of Snuff…
I recommend this crazy anthology for others to see as it almost in its own way has a moral. I’m not saying it’s a masterpiece but it definitely shouldn’t be overlooked in its subterfuge of Death metal and death… Enjoy!
Starring Dakota Bailey as Alister, Larry Bay as Dealin’ Dick, Chuck Frost as Groundskeeper, Brian Knapp as Charlie, Matt Marshall as Bubba, Wild Willy Wakefeild as Woody, Tony Woodard as
Diner.
Movies Galore Takes a look at Director of “Terror Toons” Joe Castro’s film “Near Death” from 2004!
Written by David Strege
Brought to us by Thriller Entertainment in association with Jesco Film Entertainment this film is directed by Joe Castro of Terror Toons reknown in 2003 truthfully but IMDb and distribution were in 2004 thanks Joe for that info!
A man in a trench on a beach is growled at to hurry up…
Its night a blonde floozy (I say floozy as that is what a drunk woman looking to pick up someone in a bar with sexual intentions is) named Priscilla picks up a muscled dick bar tender I say dick because he acted like one to Priscilla in the truck, whom sort of abducts her to a manor around a curvy road where a party is going on where she’s the main course… the guests or inhabitants are dressed from a period from another era…
I have to say right away the bar tender was a bad actor but I think perfect for his role at the time. Same coastal road Billy Strand, June and Tammy arrive at Misty Point Grove where the Curse of Maria and Louie Von Brahm is supposedly to have taken place…
They knock as June hears the beating of a heart, the door just opens on its own they step inside door slams shut on its own… the cobwebs in the entry way look fantastic by the way an eerie creepy feel, as they run into Vena Marshwood, Doctor Blanchard, Harlon Montgomery, Heinrich a lurch-like looking man.
I do have to say Tammy Garrett (Willingham) does have a certain Cameron Diaz sexuallity about her even though she is slightly a little whiny when I say whiny I mean like a teenagers pout. But the three of them are there to help June with her book on Spiritual Phenomenon.
As they find out the souls of the Cast of the Great Willie Von Brahms last film “Near Death” has trapped their bodies to feed the evil in the house…
Will Billy and June be able to convince their freind Tammy to leave the house before all their souls are trapped….
Seeing that the effects are somewhat cheesily and I say Cheesily in a good way, slapped together with small snippets of CGI don’t get me wrong I enjoy some CGI but I am a fan of no CGI, cobwebs you can tell Might have been store bought and shaking of furniture you can tell was shaken by human hands not spiritual this film is badly budgeted but not so severe on the acting skills of some of the characters…
Like when Harlem Montgomery (Gould) was explaining how he got there to Tammy… the way he mused (Gould) was really acting here… one thing of note is Jeff Leroy (Director of Rat Fever and Creepies) was on Photography behind the film.
Are you ready to meet the Ghouls of Von Brahm? I certainly enjoyed this film for what it’s worth. I recommend it Enjoy!
Ps. I went back and explained a few things as this positive review was taken as insulting when it was totally meant to honor I was so excited I’d finished a review of Mr. Castro’s as I’m a huge fan and he took this as an insult. I will still love his films even if he hates my reviews though I’m not that way…
