Reviewed by Geno McGahee The 1970s was the best time for horror movies and I was fortunate to discover another obscure gem called: BARRACUDA.

Jaws 3-D (1983)
Reviewed by Melissa McGahee Horror sequels are rarely a good thing. Trilogies can be the worst. Movies like Scream 3, Phantasm 3, and Saw III come to mind. Still once in awhile, an addition to a series can deliver if not in the same manner as the original, in a […]
