Walt Disney’s Mr. Boogedy (1986) – Horror Movie Review
Reviewed by Melissa Antionette Garza When I was a child, this was one of my favorite movies. Come Halloween, MR. BOOGEDY (1986), BRIDE OF BOOGEDY (1987)and THE MIDNIGHT HOUR (1985) were staples in my living room. So, I definitely have a sentimental and nostalgic bias to this film. The movie […]

Dear White People (2014) – Drama About Racism Pulls No Punches – MUST SEE

The Funhouse (1981) – Horror Movie Review

Supremacy (2014) – Home Invasion Drama with Dirtbag Racists

The Godsend (1980) – Killer Kid Film – Free on YouTube (SPOILER ALERT)

Splatter University (1984) – Amazon Prime Film/YouTube Free Watch
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Very rarely do I find a slasher from the 80s I haven’t seen, but it certainly is a treat whenever I come across one. I’ve seen the cover for Splatter University for years and for some reason both my brother Geno and I confused it with […]
It Follows (2015) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Melissa Antoinette Garza When I first saw the theatrical ad for It Follows, I was excited because the other new horror release Unfriended (2015) looks awful and the new Poltergeist (2015) regardless if it’s good will get the “remake” backlash. The trailer for It Follows looked promising and though […]
