By Geno McGahee I am a big fan of Texas Hold’em and most films that concern the game will attract my interest. ROUNDERS was released, and it featured Matt Damon as “Mike McDermott” and Edward Norton as his screwed up buddy, “Lester Murphy.” Mike was the king of the game […]

Black Sabbath (1964) – Anthology Horror Movie Review Netflix Instant Watch
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I had heard about this anthology on some message boards that had declared it the scariest film of all time. Even on IMDB, some comments indicated it was an extremely frightening movie. I watched with high expectations. I love anthologies. The 60s were a great time […]
Frailty (2001) – Horror Movie Review
By Geno McGahee In 2001, Bill Paxton directed the movie “FRAILTY.” I have been a Bill Paxton fan for some time. The first time I saw Paxton was when he was heckling a naked Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 1984 film “THE TERMINATOR.” In 1985, he was the older prick brother […]
The Being (1983) – Toxic Waste & Monsters HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee Toxic waste has done a lot for the monster business. Without it, where would the Toxic Avenger be? C.H.U.D. would have never existed. It would be a sad world without the existence of toxic waste, and yet, you have these tree huggers that want to get rid […]
Island of Blood (1982) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee I love whodunits. I especially like them when they are done well and the motive is good. Usually, you get the “you picked on me in high school” or “you turned me down for a date one time” sort of motive, but in ISLAND OF BLOOD (AKA […]
Witchcraft (1964) – HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee “I wish I never started this construction project.” –Bill Lanier (Jack Hedley) I love movies about Satanists. They are just so much fun. I loved RACE WITH THE DEVIL and ROSEMARY’S BABY, and I have found another one that I was really impressed with by the name […]
Valentine (2001) – Whodunit Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Garza Valentine was released in March of 2001. Horror was in a very strange place at that time. The excitement that the original Scream (1996) stirred had died down in the five years after its release. Whatever enthusiasm remained was destroyed by lackluster and uninspired sequels to not […]
The Thing (1982) – John Carpenter HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Chris Summerfield John Carpenter, in my opinion is without doubt one of the greatest movie directors of the seventies and eighties, having created such trophy movies as Halloween, The Fog, and Assault on Precinct 13 and though Mr. Carpenter does not have any writing input in this movie, he […]
The Breed (2006) – Rabid Dog HORROR MOVIE REVIEW
By Geno McGahee John (Oliver Hudson) is a party dude and has just inherited a house on an island. The first thing that he does is plan a getaway with his brother and friends to enjoy it, but the island has some serious problems. Matt (Eric Lively) has had issues […]
One Step Beyond (1959 -1961) Horror series – Netflix Instant Watch TV Show Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza The Twilight Zone is my favorite television show tied only with Dragnet. Rod Serling is a genius. His brilliance will live on forever as his work is timeless. I am a fan of older TV shows. I enjoy everything from The Honeymooners, I Love Lucy, The […]
Straw Dogs (2011) – Horror Revenge Movie Review
By Melissa Garza Straw Dogs was a movie that for all intents and purposes did not need to be remade. The original starred Dustin Hoffman. Hoffman is one of the greatest actors of all time. He has a subtle approach to his style which brings a level of sincerity to […]
Spirits (1990) – Horror Movie Review
By Geno McGahee Bad acting, bad dialogue, but Erik Estrada…it cannot be all bad. Estrada may not have the best acting skills in the world, but I find his delivery hilarious and when you put him into a role where he can be really over the top, he shines. In […]
