Ghostbusters (1984) – Horror Comedy Movie Review
By Geno McGahee In the mid eighties, the horror/comedy was trending. GREMLINS came out in 1984 and FRIGHT NIGHT in 1985 and both were friendly horror films. They gave some scares, but were tame enough for the family to enjoy it together. That holds true for the 1984 paranormal […]

Prey For the Beast (2007) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The woods are a great setting for a horror movie and then when you throw in a monster, it is usually a winning combination. In the 2007 micro-budget horror film “PREY FOR THE BEAST,” we get a monster, the woods, a boatload of bad acting and a […]

R.O.T.O.R. (1987) – SCI-FI MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The 1980s were a very special time for film. You had great films like ROBOCOP, TERMINATOR and MANIAC COP, and the producers of the ultra-low budget film R.O.T.O.R, obviously watched all three, enjoyed them, and then made a film heavily inspired by them. The idea is nothing […]

It’s Alive (1969) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Most horror fans think of the 1974 monster baby movie when they hear “IT’S ALIVE,” as I did, but there was one that came before it. A made for TV sci-fi film by low budget filmmaker, Larry Buchanan, gets a lot of bad press but it is […]

By Geno McGahee I never knew that sharks seek revenge, but they actually do. JAWS: THE REVENGE came out in 1987, 12 years after the original captured the imagination of the public. Much like JAWS 3-D, this film gets bad press, but if you enjoy absurdity and can recognize the […]
