Love Me Deadly (1972) – Horror Film Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza LOVE ME DEADLY (1972) is a strange little film that could have only existed in the carefree chillness of low-budget 1970s brilliance. It certainly delves into some uncomfortable topics where necrophilia doesn’t even top the list. The film opens with a funeral service. Lindsay Finch […]
The Stepfather (1987) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza There are two type of people in this world; those who watch THE STEPFATHER (1987) and root for the mom (Shelley Hack) & daughter (Jill Schoelen) and then there are horror fans. This is a fucking classic. I want another a sequel to the OG series […]
TERROR AT THE RED ROOF INN (1972) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza When TERROR AT THE RED ROOF INN (1972) opens we see Henry Smith (Arthur Space). Henry is a well-dressed old man with a killer green thumb (Nailed it!) He is kind, sweet and attentive to his plants. I’m sure I won’t change my opinion of this wonderful elderly […]
Cataclysm (1980) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza If you’ve ever seen NIGHT TRAIN TO TERROR (1985) you obtained a glimpse. Footage from CATACLYSM (1980) was taken and a very short synopsis of this movie was shown to create the anthology short. I love NIGHT TRAIN TO TERROR, but you must experience CATACLYSM […]
Sex, Lies, and Videotape (1989) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza This is one of my favorite flicks of all time. It’s sexy, it’s raw and was able to break into the mainstream despite the nature of it. Usually, the R rated movies I liked flew under the radar because they were cult films and no one […]

Scream of the Demon Lover (1970) Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Sometimes, I quite enjoy being a mark. When people know your weaknesses, they often cater to them. One of my weaknesses is sexy feminine beauties who are pursued by freaks of the night. There must have been quite a few people with my shared kicks, […]
Evil Toons (1992) – Horror Comedy Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza This movie takes me back. I still remember holding the VHS tape in my hand and thinking, “this is going to be fantastic!” Was I right? Yes. Yes I was. EVIL TOONS (1992) was a straight-to-video release that was a advertised like a horror spin on […]
The Burbs (1989) – Horror Comedy Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza After Bill Maher continued his streak of being the biggest douche ever by insulting Stan Lee, his work and comic book fans worldwide, I needed some comfort food so I’m venturing to one of my faves. I’ve loved the THE BURBS (1989) since I first […]
A Virgin Among the Living Dead (1973) – Horror Movie Review
