Sssssss (1973) – Dirk Benedict KILLER SNAKE HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I have owned SSSSSSS for quite a while and was never able to get into it, but I don’t give up easily and finally sat down and watched it through. Without question, it is a slow burn, but the payoff is totally worth it. Dr. Carl Stoner […]
A Virgin Among the Living Dead (1973) – Horror Movie Review

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 […]
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 […]

The Vampire Lovers (1970) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Though devoted fans of the genre still enjoy THE VAMPIRE LOVES (1970) enough to give it a cult following and critically it often fares better than the similarly themed LUST FOR A VAMPIRE (1971), it doesn’t quite get the respect it deserves. The movie opens […]
