By Melissa Antoinette Garza I am not a fan of organized religions. As a child, I went to a bunch of churches and I only ever liked one. It was run by a non-judgemental hippie reverend who had a farm and brought in animals for the kids to play with. […]

By Melissa Antoinette Garza KILLER NUN (1979) opens with Sister Gertrude (Anita Ekberg) working at a hospital for primarily elderly patients. Gertrude is not mentally well and despite begging to be medically admitted, she’s denied. She had a brain tumor removed and became somewhat addicted to morphine which Dr Poirret(Massimo […]
The Stolen (2017) – Richard O’Brien Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Richard O’Brien portrays Mr. Russell who works at a brothel filled with lovely women. He is just delicious and I love this flick. Now to start, I do have a serious complaint. In a single scene, the film loses all credibility and becomes completely […]
DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS (1971) HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Melissa Antoinette Garza DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS (1971) wastes no time jumping in on a passionate love scene between the two leads newlyweds Stefan (John Karlen) and Valerie (Danielle Ouimet). They head to a hotel to celebrate their marriage, but all is not well. Stefan’s mother seems like a […]
THE BEYOND (1981) Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza THE BEYOND (1981) is one of the rare films that still freak me out. I’ll watch it tonight because the hubby is home. If I was alone, I would not be venturing into this territory. This, Bob Clark’s BLACK CHRISTMAS (1974) and Lamberto Bava’s DEMONS […]
Lisa and the Devil (1974) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Some say Telly Savalas portrays the devil in this film. I contend he portrays Telly Savalas in it. Moreso, I contend he always plays Telly Savalas and he’s awesome at it. Lisa Reiner (Elke Sommer) is hanging outside listening to a tour guide talk about […]
Requiem For a Vampire (1971) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I miss when vampire movies were done right! When I drown myself in the 70s, I know I’m getting lots of sex, gore and insanity brought to me by the most kick-ass femme fatale leads of all time. Virgins (yep, go with it) Marie (Marie-Pierre […]
Goodbye Gemini (1970) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza At an age too young to remember, I saw TO SIR WITH LOVE (1967) and fell in love with the fearless blonde bombshell that is Judy Geeson. When I was around 13, I started scouring the huge books in video stores to rent her filmography. […]
Crash (1996) – Sexploitation Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Introducing people to David Cronenberg movies hasn’t always gone well for me. Probably, because I typically begin with CRASH (1996). I love James Spader. He’s gorgeous and he has a lot of crazy sex in it. What isn’t to enjoy? Some people would say it […]
The New Kids (1985) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza James Spader is one of my favorite actors. He was in so many movies that got me thru many a dateless night in high-school……college…. and…… so on. I enjoy him so much that roughly a decade ago I hosted a SpaderVasion party where strictly James Spader […]
Dolls (1986) Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Killer doll movies are a delight! They are also the reason my BABY TALK doll was shaved, stripped, broken, humiliated and sold for $1.00 at a tag sale in 1987. That doll looked at me every time I walked into a room. Her lips were […]
Macabre (1980) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza This film opens stating that it’s based on a true story. I don’t know how much of the plot really happened. I’m guessing around zero percent. Whether fiction or non, MACABRE (1980) is whacked out, strange fun, for all who have a twisted taste for […]
