Hagan Reviews is a review series hosted by Diamanda Hagan. The series consists of Hagan reviewing basically any movie she wants, usually from her dvd collection. She usually picks films she feels are unfairly overlooked and/or something she really dislikes. The genres she has reviewed have a wide range, such as horror films, children films, religious films, superhero films, martial arts and action films, and even both soft-core and hard-core porn. The only thing the films have in common is that most are exploitation films and/or are fairly obscure.
Hagan Classics[]
The "Hagan Classics" label is something that is assigned to any Hagan Review made before October 2, 2010. A "Classics" review is simply an episode made before her review of "The Black Gestapo". Hagan Classics are usually videos made with her old camera before she upgraded to a HD one in late 2010. Only one video made with the HD camera has been labeled as a "Hagan Classics", her "Intermedio (Dead and Dying)" review. The first "Hagan Classics" to be put up on the site was Turkey Shoot, the second Hagan Reviews ever made.
Not all "Hagan Classics" are reviews. On October 3, 2011 Hagan's "Police Academy Marathon" video was put up on the site under Hagan's "Other Stuff" section. It is not an actually review of any of the 7 Police Academy films but a short film/sketch where Hagan has the urge to watch all the Police Academy movies in a row (while killing minions, of course) with darkly comedic results. Originally made in the summer of 2010, it is the only short film Hagan has produced featuring the Diamanda Hagan character and minions so far.
Special Hagan Reviews[]
On Hagan's wordpress, a "Special Hagan Review is described as "Hagan Reviews outside of the regular series. Same continuity just a slightly different intro". The first "Special Hagan Review" put on TGWTG was her review of "The Land Before Time 8". Out of the 37 total reviews Hagan has produced so far, 12 of them are labeled as "Special Hagan Reviews".
Episodes on TGWTG[]
On June 15, 2011 Hagan was given a three epsiode trial run on TGWTG, starting with her review of Faust Love of the Damned. At the end of the month she was officially picked up by the site.
