By Melissa Antoinette Garza JENNIFER 8 (1992) is one of those films that I loved so much as a teenager and grew with so I’m not sure if it’s truly as good as I think it is or if it’s more of a nostalgia style love. At 13, I was […]

Thinner (1996) – Horror Movie Review *Stephen King, Tom Holland, Robert John Burke*
By Melissa Antoinette Garza THINNER (1996) is amazing. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a train-wreck. It’s a psychotic fever dream that is a mixture of the sensational overacting you see in MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE (1986) and a plot similar to DRAG ME TO HELL (2009). I really am unsure whether it’s […]
9 1/2 Weeks (1986) – Sexploitation Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I’ll take ‘Movies I constantly secretly rented as a teenager for $200, Alex.’ My God, I love this movie. Talk about Fem Goddess! 9 1/2 WEEKS is why I am always in for Fem Goddess Kim Basinger and fuck Alec Baldwin! The evolution of her character […]
Shaun of the Dead (2004) – Horror Comedy Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza Today I needed a comfort movie. If I was the average middle-age gal having an off day that would probably be a fuzzy Hallmark flick, but alas I am not. For me, SHAUN OF THE DEAD (2004) is my warm blanket to cuddle with. […]
The Innkeepers (2011): Thriller/Horror MOVIE REVIEW
By Yo Adrian (Courtesy of Allhorror.com) Director Ti West definitely has a gift for slow-burn builds, character development, and little details that can’t help but make the viewer feel immersed in the worlds he creates. However, we personally like his style best when it’s applied to the genre he does […]
HALLOWEEN (2018) – Horror Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza When HALLOWEEN (2018)came out and I saw the trailer, I was a bit worried it was going to go the H20(1998) route. I wanted to be optimistic. I wanted to really love this, but I was scared going in. The film opens with podcasters Daina […]
Goosebumps 2 (2018) – Family Film Review *Wendi McLendon-Covey, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Caleel Harris, Madison Iseman, Jack Black, Mick Wingert*
By Melissa Antoinette Garza As a teen, I loved Fear Street books. I owned them all. I still own a few and read them on occasion for fun. I’d also get the Goosebumps books, but FS was just a tad edgier. The Goosebumps show, however was right up my alley […]
Teaching Mrs. Tingle (1999) – Movie Review *Katie Holmes, Helen Mirren, Marisa Coughlan, Barry Watson, Molly Ringwald*
By Melissa Antoinette Garza As much as I’m always full fem, sometimes I am just a teenage gal in a woman’s body. On days like that, TEACHING MRS. TINGLE (1999) is a great place for me to go. Leigh Ann (Katie Holmes) is an A student in desperate need […]
Wild At Heart (1990) Movie Review *David Lynch, Nicolas Cage Laura Dern, Diane Ladd, Willem Dafoe*
By Melissa Antoinette Garza A good friend from across the pond mentioned this flick a few days back. It’s one of my favorites and I haven’t seen it in awhile. It also is that friend’s birthday today so in celebration of my buddy Ian and in honor of David Lynch, […]
Grease (1978) – Movie Review *Stockard Channing, Olivia Newton-John, John Travolta*
By Melissa Antoinette Garza GREASE (1978) is a fantastic musical. There were few weekends that this wasn’t playing on my television as a kid. My older and more conventional sister always saw herself as Sandy (Olivia Newton-John), but me – I am and have always been a […]
Aquaman (2018) – Movie Review ** Jason Momoa, Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Nicole Kidman**
By Melissa Antoinette Garza My sister, mom and myself caught dinner and a movie tonight. They chose the movie. I did not want to see AQUAMAN (2018). The trailers didn’t appeal to me. I’m not a Jason Momoa fan. I don’t think he’s attractive. I get why people do. […]
BlacKkKlansman (2018) – Movie Review
By Melissa Antoinette Garza I love Ron Stallworth’s book. His story of infiltrating the Klan is a marvelous one. I was a bit wary when Spike Lee got his hands on it. I was even more skeptical when I heard Alec Baldwin was portraying a racist villain named Dr. […]
