By Melissa Antoinette Garza The great John Carpenter came back with a full length feature on a modest $10 million dollar budget. I would personally like to know why I haven’t heard about it until now! I don’t recall any mainstream advertising like for Sam Raimi’s horror comeback in “Drag […]
Monsters
MUCKMAN – Movie Review
Reviewed by Forris Day Jr. As a kid (late 70s) on Saturday afternoons I would watch “Creature Double Feature” at 1pm on Chanel 56 out of Boston, MA. They would mostly show the Japanese monster movies with Godzilla, Mothera, the Three Headed Monster and I even remember one with a […]
Insidious (2010)
Reviewed by Melissa Garza Josh (Patrick Wilson) and Renai Lambert (Rose Byrne) move into a brand new beautiful home. Immediately, strange things begin to happen. A box of music disappears only to be found in the dark attic. Images are seen and then quickly vanish. Odd noises are heard throughout […]
Skin Eating Jungle Vampires (2010)
Review by Forris Day Jr. If you like cheesy movies have I got one for you. “Skin Eating Jungle Vampires” is about as bad as a movie gets. I have to believe it was shot on VHS and a very low quality VHS camera at that. This is a sexplotation […]
Super 8 (2011)
By Melissa Garza Admittedly, I was a Johnny-come-lately fan of J.J. Abrams. I never got into Lost or Alias and Cloverfield never interested me. I began taking notice of Abrams work with the 2009 blockbuster, Star Trek. When I saw the preview for Super 8, I thought it looked pretty […]
Midnight Movie: The Killer Cut (2011)
By Geno McGahee In 2008, MIDNIGHT MOVIE was released and I was very impressed with it. In a world of remakes, re-imaginings, Asian transfers, soft core porn “horror” and torture films, it was a breath of fresh air. Written and directed by Jack Messitt, MIDNIGHT MOVIE was original and fun […]
Invaders from Mars (1986)
Reviewed by Melissa Garza “I’ll get you for this David Gardner” – Mrs. McKeltch (Louise Fletcher) When I was a child, I adored the remake of “Invaders from Mars.” It scared me yet not enough to turn my head away. It was a fun action packed thriller about mind control. […]
Enemy Mine (1985)
Reviewed by Geno McGahee I am a child of the 1980’s and of course, Dennis Quaid was a big thing at that point for a kid of 11, which I was at the time. He was in the great film DREAMSCAPE and the not so great film JAWS 3-D, but […]
Wishmaster (1997) – Horror Movie Review
Reviewed by Geno McGahee Many times, the purpose of a horror film is to create an icon…something that can be repackaged and sold over and over again. FRIDAY THE 13TH had Jason Voorhees and it sprouted many sequels, making a boatload of money, and then there was Michael Myers and […]
The Devil’s Ground (2008)
Reviewed by Melissa Garza “Better keep quiet or the hog man will get you.” – Tammy (Maria Gruending) The film opens with Carrie (Daryl Hannah) on her way to Bangor when she nearly runs her car into Amy (Leah Gibson) who is standing in the middle of the street covered […]
A Guide to Salem
By Melissa Garza I’ve always loved Salem. I’m both a historical buff and a fan of most things related to horror, so Salem is a perfect fit. I’ve been there quite a few times but visiting the new attractions and hearing the tragic history of the city retold is an […]
Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988) – Horror Comedy Movie Review
Reviewed by Melissa Antoinette Garza “What in tarnation is going on here?” – Farmer Gene Green (Royal Dano) Though a cult film fan since childhood, I avoided this film for most of my 20s. I had bad memories of watching it over and over again when I was young because […]
