By Geno McGahee The 1980s was a very special time for horror films. It was the slasher boom and the villain with the mask and motive was unleashed. The whodunit horror of that time was so much fun, with films like MY BLOODY VALENTINE, PIECES, THE PROWLER, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO […]

The Devil’s Detective by Simon Kurt Unsworth – HORROR BOOK REVIEW
By Wayne C. Rogers Doubleday, Trade Paperback, 2015, 304pp The Devil’s Detective by Simon Kurt Unsworth is the author’s first novel, and it’s certainly an impressive one to say the least. In some ways the author has reinvented the “horror” genre with this whopper of a story, setting its location […]
Run All Night (2015) – Liam Neeson, Ed Harris, Warner Bros. ACTION MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The two greatest action stars of all time were Charles Bronson and Clint Eastwood. The DIRTY HARRY series and the DEATH WISH franchise defined the genre. The gritty, gun-carrying badass that didn’t need martial arts or explosives to bring his point home was a lost character until […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: The Dwarf (1989) – HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Setting a horror-based story at a carnival is gold, usually. The setting alone can be unsettling. The clowns, the lights and the unusual cast of characters make them an ideal location to tell a scary story. The 1989 episode of the Ray Bradbury Theater, “DWARF,” surrounds such […]
Bandwagon (1996) -A Nostalgic Look Back at 90s Music (Rare 90s Movie)
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Being a child of the 90s, I often romanticize the decade in my head. I like to convince myself what came out of the 90s was better than anything before or after. Maybe that’s because, if not for Nirvana, Live, Soul Asylum, Rage Against the Machine, […]
Kickboxer 5: The Redemption (1995) – Mark Dacascos ACTION MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee The fifth and final entry in the KICKBOXER series (I think) is arguably the best since the first entry. It may not have been written to be one of the series, which is my suspicion, but they tied it in. David Sloan, played by Sasha Mitchell, had […]

By Geno McGahee “I finally found a doctor that understands.” — Bert Harris (Eugene Levy) I’ve always been a fan of Eugene Levy. He has had a great career where he’s done a lot of great work and some work that was merely a paycheck. Whatever the case, he always […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Punishment Without Crime (1988) – Donald Pleasence HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee “If she’s alive, she wasn’t murdered. So you can’t execute me.” – George Wills (Donald Pleasence) As a huge horror fan, the name Donald Pleasence is something to praise. He has been in many films, but the one that matters to most is his recurring role in […]

Kickboxer 4: The Aggressor (1994) – Sasha Mitchell & the Return of Tong Po ACTION MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I am a huge fan of the 1989 KICKBOXER with action superstar, Jean-Claude Van Damme. It is a classic and was incredibly popular, prompting a series of straight to video sequels. In 1991, we saw KICKBOXER 2: THE ROAD BACK, with Sasha Mitchell as the new lead. […]
The Ray Bradbury Theater: Tyrannosaurus Rex (1988) – Dinosaur Stop Motion Animation HORROR TV REVIEW
By Geno McGahee “I want to see a monster.” – Clarence (Jim Dunk) I am a huge fan of stop motion animation. It was very prevalent in the eighties and we didn’t mind. There was no CGI, so they just got these figures and moved them slightly, frame by frame, […]
